“I’ll set something up,” Sophie says.
After they’ve rested, we begin to make our way down the backside of the mountain toward Owen’s pack. I can see that we’re not the first ones here, which doesn’t surprise me. Some of our pack members who want to compete left earlier this morning so they could look around. Robin, Kayce, Ezra, and I are planning to put stakes on the borders of the pack lands. Since this pack is like mine, not bordering any other packs, it will be important for those interested in competing to know how large the pack is.
I see Ezra and Jake. Lucas and Kinsley break off to go talk to our pack members, but Shaw moves toward Ezra. When we’re close, Ezra turns and smiles.
“Shaw, good to see you. Hello, Sophie.”
“Hello Ezra,” she says sliding off Shaw’s back. “Did Margot join you?”
“Of course I did,” Margot says from behind him, walking our
way.
Sophie rushes over to hug her as I shift. “Hello Ezra, Jake,” I greet them, moving to grab the bags off of Sophie’s shoulders.

-“Look how big your pup has gotten already, Sophie,” Margot
says, looking down. I feel the wave of her excitement and watch her smile broadly at Margot. I kiss the side of her head before getting my clothes and pulling them ort.
I turn back to Ezra. “Who’s here? Or should I ask who’s not here?” I ask, seeing a large number of people milling around.
“Robin and Nikki just got here, they’re checking out the packhouse to see if we can sleep there. It’s a mess, but I think it’s a better option for those of you with pregnant mates,” Ezra says. “Kayce and Allison haven’t arrived yet.”
We hear a howl, and I turn seeing several wolves heading our way. The largest is carrying Allison.
“That would be Rodion carrying Allison,” I say.
“Who are the others,” I hear Jake ask, his nose going up in the air.
“I’m not sure. I haven’t met their wolves. I know Allison’s friend
Letti was planning to come, so I’m guessing she’s one of those wolves.”
Jake takes a couple more steps forward, his gaze intent.
“Jake?” Ezra asks, watching him closely.
I watch as one of the wolves rushes right up to us, shifting into Letti.

“MATE!” Jake growls.
Letti’s eyes go wide. “Mate.”

It’s so good to see Margot again, even better because she seems to be healing emotionally. Spending time with Ezra, unlike Jocelyn’s time with Zahn, seems to be helping Margot get stronger.
“How is your mother?” I ask her.
Margot snorts. “Once a Luna, always a Luna, I guess. She’s got Ezra’s pack eating out of the palm of her hand.”
“And how about you?” I ask her.
“I’m settling in. It’s…different. I can feel the pack’s desire to have a Luna again, for me to accept Ezra. I can also feel their need to feel whole. It’s different than what I felt from the pack when I was with Joshua. They valued me as their Luna in some ways, but it’s not like it is with you and your pack. There’s almost a desperation in Ezra’s pack, a need to fill the gaping hole that Diana left. It makes me nervous to try and fill those
shoes.”
“Those aren’t your shoes to fill, Margot. You’re not Diana, you are you. You shouldn’t try to be her. Be the person you are. You and Ezra have been given second chance mates because you are both what the other needs right now. What he needed, the woman he needed when he met Diana, isn’t the same as what
