Kids From One Alpha” By Selena Lynch Chapter 137
Chapter 137. Fall is Here
Fall in the pack was a
big event. There were several holidays throughout the fall, and as the leaves began to change color, the pack started putting tog
ether a big fall festival. It was a long weekend of parades, events, costumes, and harvest celebrations.
Serena was looking forward to experiencing it with the kids. It was the first time that they were around for a pack holiday, and
the first time they‘d get to be so involved in
a big pack event. The festival kicked off with a fall parade. Through the daycare, the twins were participating. Their group was th
e pumpkin patch, and they had to dress up as pumpkins. Dana had hand sewn them costumes. “Come on, you two, let‘s put
on your costumes.” Serena said, bringing the puffy orange outfits into the living
room where the twins were playing. “Where is daddy?” Olivia asked.
“He is going to meet us at the parade,” Serena said. “I know he wants to see the two of you as pumpkins, so let‘s get these costu
mes on.” Olivia and Oliver stood still, mostly, as Serena got them into their clothes. The costumes were adorable! They had gree
n pants with felt vines and leaves curled around them. The shirts were orange with a puffy
felt roundness around their bellies for the pumpkin. They each had a little brown pointed had for the stem. “You two look adorable
!” Serena gushed. “Dana, come look at your handy work.” Dana appeared from the kitchen and sighed as she looked at
the kids. “Absolutely perfect,” she said. “Alright, go with Dana to the parade and I‘ll see you there. I‘ll be there with your dad,” she
said. The twins headed out of the house with Dana. Serena got her purse and headed over to Logan‘s house. She passed the vi
llage center along the way where pack members were setting up a hay maze and some fun fall games for kids and other pack m
embers to play. There was a real pumpkin patch growing near where the hay maze was set up. It had been decorated with some
festive, fall decorations. Serena was absolutely delighted to see the events coming together. The kids were excited too, because
Logan had promised to spend almost the entire weekend with them. That meant Serena would be spending the entire weekend
with him too. She hadn‘t spent that much time with him since they started seeing each other. She was a little nervous, but she fel

want to take things as slow as she thought Serena knocked on Logan‘s front door. She
waited a few moments and then he appeared. “You don‘t have to knock,” he told
her. “My mom rarely locks the door. Serena, you are welcome to just come in.” “Thanks,” Serena said. “I can‘t wait until you see t
he twins. They are so cute in their pumpkin costumes.” Logan chuckled. “Great, let‘s go,” he said. He held his arm out for Serena
and she looped her arm through his. They walked to the main street
where the parade was going to happen. Already, the majority of the pack had assembled. Serena wasn‘t sure what to expect fro
m the parade, but a lot of the onlookers had streamers and pompoms. “Here, let‘s grab these,” Logan said pulling a few ribbon d
ancers from a nearby bucket. He handed one to Serena. She waved it back and forth, smiling. “This is a big event,” she
said. “It isn‘t a masquerade party,” Logan said. “But these are the
kinds of events the whole pack gets involved in, kids and all. They are the best.” Serena chuckled, rolling her eyes. “Are you ever
going to stop teasing me about the masquerade?” she asked. “Probably not,” Logan admitted. “Here is a good spot. We‘ll be abl
e to see everything and have front row seats. Serena and Logan stood on the
edge of the street. From the distance Serena heard pack members starting to cheer and the sounds of drums, bells, and other in
struments. “We got here just in time,” she said.
Logan grinned and nodded. He took his arm from hers and started clapping as the first parade float went by. There were several l
arge floats, all made to reflect the time of year. Between the
floats there were musicians playing instruments, pack members walking on stilts, and others performing tricks like juggling. Every
one on the streets clapped and cheered and waved their ribbons
and pompoms back and forth. Serena quickly got caught up in the excitement, clapping and cheering along with everyone else. “
There it is.” Serene said bouncing on the
balls of her feet and pointing to the float that the twins were on. They whole daycare was dressed up like pumpkins the kids were
holding hands in a circle and dancing around. Serena laughed, waving her ribbon dancer even harder. “They look great!” Logan
said near her ear. He pulled a camera out and started

that the twins had plenty of fun the whole weekend especially since Logan was going to be with them the whole time. The hay ma

took Oliver‘s hand. “This way,” she said, pointing ahead. Logan took Serena‘s hand again as they followed
the twins through the maze. The two of them were good puzzle solvers. Each of the maze dead ends were marked
with a different symbol –
a pumpkin, a turkey, a leaf, a witch, and other seasonally appropriate pictures. That way, the kids could tell if they‘d hit that dead

There is a pumpkin mead truck, some dancing by jack-o–lantern light, was that the
kind of thing you had in mind?” he asked.
“That sounds nice,” Serena admitted. Logan put his arm around Serena‘s shoulders and gave her a nice side
hug. She giggled and leaned into him.” “I‘m sensing you had other ideas?” Logan asked. Serena shrugged, biting her bottom lip. “
