His Plump Mate (Book 1: The 'His' Series) novel Chapter 688

Sinclair POV

Luna Sin. Me? I’ve never strived to be a Luna. I am just a tech. A paid hitman. Not a Luna. I don’t know the first thing about being a Luna. How am I supposed to run a pack? Where would we even get pack members? How can we lead a pack with no pack members?

“Little Sin? Are you okay?” Adrian said, calling me back to the present moment.

“I don’t know,” I answered honestly. “I’ve never once thought about becoming a Luna. I don’t know anything about being a Luna. I’m a lot of things; a Luna isn’t one of them, Adrian.”

Adrian holds my shoulders and looks at me. “Are you the only one that doesn’t see it, Little Sin?”

“Huh?”

Aiden spoke up. “Even Julian wanted to make you his Luna, Sinclair.”

Adrian growled low at hearing Julian’s intentions with me. I leaned into Adrian and buried my face into his chest.

“I need time to think about this, Adrian. I have so many questions.”

Aiden sat down. “What immediate questions do you have?”

“Well, first, how are we leading a pack without pack members?” I asked.

Aiden smirked. “You’re leading a pack a lot easier without them, I assure you,” he chuckled, but then added, “Adrian and I spoke about that, Sinclair. We figured from what you told Adrian, and from our conversations since your return, that Julian’s pack members aren't happy. Once the war is over, they may find themselves displaced and in need of a home. Then there are family members, like Poppy and Rodrigo, that might want to be in the middle of both Blackstone and Ironclaw for convenience.”

“Aric is the Beta at Ironclaw. I doubt Poppy will join us,” I said.

“Or maybe Aric could become your Beta. Isaiah has a good handle on his pack now. You will require a strong Beta.”

“Reid didn’t want to relocate Blue Moon?” I asked.

“He plans to, but not to Blackclaw territory. His first reaction was for you and me to have it, Little Sin,” Adrian answered.

“I don’t know how to be a Luna, though,” I said, suddenly feeling inadequate.

“Dad helped, too. He said Adrian and you are destined to do great things, and he wanted to be a part of that.”

My chest warms. Dad has always treated me special. I’ve never understood why, but I no longer question it either. I know it’s all coming from a place of love and that’s enough for me.

“I also put in capital, Little Sin. Don’t worry. We have the investment plan, and we will make a living running the pack,” Adrian added.

“Okay. Well, it looks like we have homework to do, then. You know, both Blackstone and Ironclaw have mines. Do you think that territory has hidden treasures, too?”

Adrian smiled widely. “I’m one step ahead of you, Little Sin. I already have a surveyor coming, and we are going to send dirt samples to the lab. I think the conditions are right and there is probably another mine somewhere on that property. If we locate it before we build, then we can design the pack around the mines and even put the schools near it so that we can have environmental classes too.”

“That sounds like a great idea. Have you guys thought about the potential placements of a training facility and pack house, or is it dependent on the mines?”

Aiden grinned widely, and his eyes flashed with excitement. “Yeah. I have preliminary blueprints being drafted. Not placement, but design. Of course, I fully expect you to change things, but I figured some inspiration could go a long way for you.”

We are really doing this. I’m suddenly anxious to get started.
