Chapter 332
Sophie
My mate is so special. He somehow knew I needed an outlet for my emotional stress and creating a nursery was exactly what I needed. I could be in my son’s room alone, if I needed space from everyone, or I could harass our warriors by having them move and remove the furniture just the way I wanted it. Thankfully, the pack loves me, and they tolerated my craziness with good humor.
After Jocelyn came out of her surgery, I felt a little bit better. I find that some days I’m more in control of my emotions than others. I asked Dr. Felicity about it, and she said the same thing that Hunter did. It’s normal that my hormones will be all over the place while I’m pregnant. Add to that, I’m getting less and less sleep each night, and then the general weight of being a Luna, and sometimes, it’s just more than my body can handle. She assured me that once Huntington is born, that I’d start feeling back to normal.
Penny’s birthday had been a success. No one was surprised when she and Jaime came downstairs for breakfast both looking exhausted but happy and both wearing fresh mate marks. The pack ended up celebrating her birthday most of the day and even Jocelyn and the survivors came to for the evening party. I could see Jocelyn constantly looking around, as if expecting Zahn to jump out at any moment. But, between me and Sandy, she was able to relax. Hunter, Lucas, Jaime, and Penny all took the pack, including the older pups from the survivor center on a pack run, howling and playing together as those of us left behind sat around talking and waiting for them to return. It was a beautiful night and then just a few days later, I received the call from Amelia that my niece had been born.
Today, Alpha Jake and Luna Letti are arriving to talk to the pack members that came from Owen’s pack. Hunter has talked to Ezra and to Robin, since Jake and Letti already stayed and talked to the group there. Both have been impressed with how Jake is handling the pack members/and based on what Robin told Hunter, most of Owen’s pack members will be returning to their old pack.
I’m pretty sure Hunter has mixed feelings about the pack members leaving. He feels like everyone should want to stay here because our pack is special, but I feel like every pack should be special in its own way. That will give people options for good packs to live in, especially when they find their mates. So, I’m okay with people not staying in our pack, as long as they make their own packs a positive environment for everyone.
When they arrive, Hunter and I meet them on the front steps of the pack house. I watch them get out of the car, Jake looking around for the first time, and Letti looking around after not being here for a while.
“It’s strange coming in from the front,” she says to me, walking up to hug me. “Luna Sophie, how much longer before this little guy makes his appearance?” she asks me, looking down at my stomach while Jake and Hunter say hello.
“Since when are you so formal, Letti? I’ve always just been Sophie to you.”
“I wasn’t sure. Things are different now, but Nikki said the same to me. I think I might have offended her a bit, which wasn’t my intention.”
“We’re friends first, Lunas second,” I say, sliding my arm through hers and greeting Jake.
“Your previous pack members are a bit nervous to meet you, but I understand that many of them have been in touch with their fellow pack members in Robin’s pack. That group was very impressed with both of
