Second Chance Luna (Phoebe and Jason) novel Chapter 34

“Here’s an updated budget for the Luna Ceremony,” Luke said as he handed him a folder.

Jason sighed opening it, “Seriously? How much does my mother expect to spend on this?”

Luke chuckled knowing Jason would sign off on it. No expense was too much for his Luna even if she thought they were already spending too much.

Norah was taking full advantage and Lucille and Mona were helping. The pack had gone a long time without a proper Luna so everyone wanted to pull out all the stops. The ceremony was still a week away and preparations were humming along.

The invitations had been sent to various packs and almost all RSVP’d their intentions to join the pack for its long awaited induction. Many had also included congratulations knowing how long Jason searched for his mate.

Jason was content to see his pack so enthusiastic so he didn’t mind the constantly changing budget. What was more they were already feeling Phoebe’s influence. The pack was much calmer. There were fewer arguments and almost zero fights. Harassment of the lower ranks, particularly omega she wolves, had always been low but now it was nonexistent. Mealtimes were boisterous but everyone kept it to acceptable levels, even the unmated males.

Not only was the pack calmer but they were more focused.

The warriors were more serious about their training, patrols of the border were more thorough and rogues were handled more efficiently. In Jason’s mind even the meals had improved in flavor and scope but he did miss Phoebe’s home cooking. She had yet to make a private meal just for them but he didn’t want to disrupt her settling into the pack.

“Garrison dropped off his selections,” Luke added handing

Jason another file.

He took this one with intense interest. The warrior had written down eight names. Luke included profiles on each of the wolves with a description of their strengths, experience, training and achievements. He was pleased to note all were highly decorated warriors with ample experience.

“He included eight names in case there were any you objected to,” Luke said.

Jason nodded. He originally intended it to be a six-man team but eight warriors allowed for alternates making the team more flexible when it came to traveling. Jason trusted Garrison to organize his team appropriately.

“Approved” Jason said. “Tell Garrison he can pull his team and start training them.”

Luke nodded. He expected as much. Even after a week Jason’s protectiveness over Phoebe had not diminished. If anything it had increased. What was more Jason’s alpha aura seemed to becoming more potent. He exuded it without trying and commanded attention wherever he stepped into a room. Luke had known Jason’s influence would grow once he found his Luna but even he was surprised by just how much.

The phone suddenly rang on the beta’s desk. He glanced at the caller ID before answering, “Elder, this is Beta Luke.” Jason perked up at Lukes practiced greeting.

“Of course. He is right here,” Luke brought the phone to Jason. “Elder Ansel, Alpha.”

Jason grunted taking the phone, “Elder Ansel.”

“Ah, Alpha Jason…’m calling in regards to the balm you submitted to us for a patent.”

“You have analyzed it I trust.”

“We have completed the first set of trails…but I’d rather not discuss this over the phone.”

“Of course. When should we expect you?”

“I have time in a few days and I was planning to attend your pack’s Luna Ceremony.”

“We look forward to your visit,” Jason agreed.

The line disconnected and Jason handed it back to Luke with a thoughtful look. Luke eyed the phone than his alpha,

“What do you think?”

“You know how long wolves have searched for a means to heal silver wounds.”

“Practically since we started roaming the earth,” Luke nodded.

“I figured they’d want to keep the information secure until it’s confirmed,” Jason said.

“Which is why he didn’t want to talk about it over the phone.

Jason nodded. He had absolute faith in Phoebe so he was confident in the balm Bridget developed. The Council didn’t have the luxury of his confidence so they would want to confirm everything concerned with the balm. His only worry was that the balm had originally been invented in another pack as such Rimrock could claim propriety. But Phoebe and Bridget had made it independently without using any of the pack’s resources and Jason hoped that would give his pack the edge.

In any case they wouldn’t know the Council’s thoughts until the Elder arrived. Jason was prepared to defend Bridget’s rights to her creation regardless of whether Blue Moon was awarded the patent rights. He was already researching the next step.

Every pack had their specialty that earned the majority of the pack’s finances. Blue Moon specialized in security.

Wolves, witches and humans alike contacted them to provide security teams for important personages. Other packs specialized in medicine and medical treatments.
