Alpha's Second Chance novel Chapter 20

LOGAN

Seeing someone from my pack find their mate is something I have always enjoyed. We watched them leave the packhouse, and I glanced at Liv. She still does not look at me, and it is starting to get to me.

“I have one phone call. Could you be with Rose till I am done?” I ask her, hoping she will look at me so I can see her beautiful eyes.

“Yes, it’s fine. I will always be here for Rose.” She says and finally looks at me before going up the stairs. It might be wrong, but I can’t help but hope that spending time with Rose will make her more willing to listen to me.

OLIVIA

After we had watched Matt and Anna find out they are mates and leave to talk and get to know each other, I agreed to look after Rose for a little while. I walked upstairs and into her room, where she was playing with her dolls. When she saw me, she jumped up and ran into my arms.

“Olivia, I missed you!” She squeals.

“You saw me this morning.” I laughed, but she nodded seriously.

“Yes, but you were sleeping, and daddy said not to wake you up.”

“I am here now. What you say, should we get you a bath so you are clean and ready for bed when your dad comes?” I ask, trying to lead her away from me, sleeping in Logan’s bed this morning.

“Okay, will you sleep here again?” She asks.

“Sorry, sweetie, but no,” I tell her while getting her to the bathroom.

“Okay.” She says, sounding sad.

“Hey now, I need to go home today, so I can find songs to sing for your birthday,” I tell her, and she lightens up.

I get her bathed, put a pajama on her, and then put her to bed, getting her ready for when Logan comes. After an hour or so, I hear him come onto the floor, and looking up, he comes to sight in the door. Rose yells happily, making him chuckle.

“Hey princess, ready for your bedtime story?” he asks and smiles when she jumps on the bed.

“Yes, daddy, Olivia helped me.” She says

I get up and walk over to the dresser where I had put my phone and the hoodie that I had taken off. I took it on, put my phone in my pocket, and walked over to give Rose a goodnight hug.
