"Alpha, if you don't mind, I would like Doc to check Lynn and Josh as well. I know they look fine, but our lives haven't been easy, and I don't think I could forgive myself if I let this opportunity pass by," Alice says, and Doc tells her he is happy to look at the pups.

"I will check if they are where they are supposed to be at their age, and if there is anything you can do to help them if they are not," Doc says as he introduces himself to Lynn and Josh. The four of them follow Doc out of the room, and I start packing up everything we have gotten so far.

We have enough backpacks for each warrior to carry one. Lance grabs a larger backpack for himself to make sure he can carry some of the things for Lynn and Josh, and Dad takes the rest of their stuff to put it in his backpack. Lance fills up his old backpack with everything that belongs to Alice and puts it against the wall near the bed.

Alice will be sharing the bed with her siblings, and Quinn has volunteered to take the couch, just to make sure there is someone there in case it is necessary. There is a knock on the door before it opens to reveal Luna Victoria, and I smile when I see Mylana right behind her with Rory in her arms.

"Keir, I would like you to meet Mylana and Rory. Mylana would like to take you up on your offer to join you, and we thought it would be best if she stayed here for the night," Luna Victoria says, and Dad slowly walks over to Mylana to introduce himself to her.

Sela offers to take Rory from her and sits down on the floor at the foot of the bed while Dad talks to Mylana. Lance and Colton rearrange two backpacks to make sure that Mylana doesn't have to carry too much. After all, she already has a pup she has to take with her, even though I think Sela will help her out with that.

The door opens again, and when Lynn and Josh see Rory in Sela's arms, they both walk over quietly. It causes Mylana to smile as she watches them sit down on either side of Sela. We all listen as the pups are talking to Rory, and he slowly drifts off to sleep.

We get informed that everyone is perfectly healthy and that no permanent damage was done to either one of the females—not that I thought it would have, but you can't be too careful.

Dinner is amazing as we get to meet a few more pack members, and each of them hopes we will get safely to our destination.

I know we will get there just fine; the only question is when will we get there and how big will our Pack be by that time. Dad was never able to find out how big the territory is because, according to the Archives at the Academy, a part of the territory was hidden from the rest of the world, and every Alpha had refused to reveal that information to the Council.
