The One He Claimed by cooper (Sophie and Hunter) novel Chapter 271

Chapter 271

“Since we don’t know what Joshua and Elias‘ packs are like, I say we put Alaric’s pack up second. Both Dutton and Amelia are at risk while that pack remains vacant,” I say.

“Agreed,” everyone, including Calvin says.

“We’ll get the information on the other packs in time for our next Alpha meeting,” Ezra says.

“In the meantime, what’s the plan for creating a competition for these packs?” Robin asks.

We decide to have a gathering at Owen’s pack, announcing to everyone in our packs that a competition will be held for those pack lands.

“It’ll have to be a sudden death competition,” Kayce says.

“Yes, you lose, you’re out. Then go in a round robin format with the winners until only one is left standing,” Dutton says.

“Let’s meet in two weeks. Spread the word to your pack members and when we reconvene, we should have an idea of how many people want to compete.”

“Oh, this is so exciting!” Nikki says.

“Why is that, my little Luna? You’re not leaving me to take over

another pack,” Robin growls and while I know he didn’t mean it as a direct jab at Calvin, I’m sure that arrow hit home.

“Are you kidding? This competition will be fierce! I just know most of our Betas will compete. What a great opportunity for them. And I can’t wait to tell our she–wolves that they are eligible as well. What a fantastic time in our history!” she says excitedly.

I look at Sophie and I can’t help but think that all of this is possible because one little Alpha she–wolf ran off and became the legend that everyone else tried to follow. My sweet little Luna, my mate, is responsible for all this change.

I’m so excited to see my friends. I honestly don’t remember a time that I had friendships like I have now. Maybe it’s because I was an Alpha female and there was always a power differential in our pack. Now that I’m a Luna, I have friends who are also Lunas. Not all of them, Kinsley is also a good friend, and Penny was a friend before she even got here, but my friendships now are so much stronger than they were when I was younger.

My friends are set to arrive tomorrow and while I’m making plans to spend the day with them, the day after that, Zahn and Jocelyn arrive. I need to make sure I’m ready for that as well.

I look up as someone knocks on my door.

“Hey, can I come in?” Kinsley asks.

“Of course,” I say, setting aside my work. She and Lucas had their

appointment with Dr. Felicity yesterday and they both happily showed us the pictures of their son. Much like our son, they are naming theirs after Lucas. Lucian and Hunt will be nearly the same age. It will be good for them to grow up together. Now that Lucas is going to compete to win a pack, they will be both be Alphas and strong alliances in the next generation will be important.

“I wanted to um…” Kinsley begins, looking down at her hands, sighing. “I know that Lucas spoke to Alpha Hunter, but I wanted to know what you think about Lucas competing for his own pack,” she says, finally looking up at me.

I’m not sure if she’s asking because she thinks it’s a bad idea, or if she‘ s worried that my feelings are hurt.

I walk around my desk and come to sit beside her. “I think you and Lucas would make an amazing Alpha and Luna. I think some of these packs will have a difficult beginning, but I think both of you are strong enough to get past that, especially now that the two of you seem to be in sync and working together.”

She nods, looking down and I wait her out. “Are you angry that he’s considering it?” she asks quietly.

I reach out and cover her hands with mine. “Will I be sad when he claims his pack? Yes. And I say when, not if, because I know he’s strong enough to do it. But I would never be angry that you are giving yourselves and your pups the possibility of a better life, better position in the pack. There’s no one who could even begin to fill your shoes, but I would never be so selfish to put my wants ahead of yours.”

I watch as the tension she’s been holding releases and her body

slumps. “I’m so glad. I was so nervous about what would happen if he says he wants to compete but then doesn’t win a pack and how that might impact our relationship.”

I tilt my head at her. “Do you honestly believe that Lucas won’t win a pack?”
