My Alpha Mate's Christmas Gift novel Chapter 116

　　Now that Roxanne gave it a second thought, wasn’t it strange… Her suggestion? Celebrating a season invented by humans, the very same humans who despised them and took away 11 members of their pack. But, what matters wasn’t the ones who made the season, but what it represented… Hope… Life… Love… Sacrifice… Giving… Salvation… Happiness.

　　Roxanne only hoped that everyone else would see things from that perspective.

　　“Now, what say ye?! Are you for, or against this proposal?” Asher asked the stunned crowd.

　　He was going to force them. They had been through enough already. It was a choice they had to make. Everyone had to choose… Whether to remain miserable or to give joy a chance.

　　Suddenly, one person raised his hand and yelled out

　　“I am for!”

　　Everyone looked to see the one who had done this thing. His name was Daniel, he had lost his son to Hunters. It was only a month ago that his son went through his Awakening, and now he is dead.

　　But why was his hand raised? Shouldn't he be one of the most miserable?

　　“If Lady Roxanne says so, then I agree! After all… Even though my kid is dead… She protected my remaining two daughters!" He cried out.

　　The man's statement stunned everyone. And before they knew it, hands started to get raised as well. The werewolves in support increased every second. It continued until everyone’s hands were up.

　　From the crowd, Larry smiled as his own hands were raised as well.

　　“Why not? After all, it’s a good thing to celebrate in the season… I’ve always wondered what Christmas would be like here.” He grinned to himself.
