Chapter 333
“I see that hasn’t changed.” Letti says.
“What’s that?” I ask.
“Alpha Hunter always listened to what you had to say and took your words to heart, Sophie. I remember how much I didn’t believe that it was real when I first got here, how I didn’t trust any Alphas. But he was always the real deal. You both were.”
We get them settled into their rooms, putting them at the end of the hall on our floor. Then, I show Letti what I’ve started in the Hunt’s room.
“You’re going with a hunter’s theme?” she asks me, looking at the murals on the wall.
“Yes. It’s Hunter’s family’s tradition with naming their children, so I decided to go with the pack on a hunt.” The mural spreads around the room, with wild animals being chased by a small group of wolves. I didn’t say anything to Hunter, but the pack is eight large – the size of the family he’s promised me.
‘Oh, I know that’s why there are eight wolves, my mate. I counted them the moment that part of the mural was done,’ Hunter says in the mind link. I’m glad you left room though, in case we decide for more later on.’
I have to cover my laugh as Hunter walks up behind me and wraps his arms around me while we look over the room.
“There’s still more to do, but it’s coming along,” I say.
I watch Letti look at Jake, a pretty blush flushing her cheeks before she
looks away. Interesting.

We head back downstairs and enter the room that is set up for lunch. It’s only a few moments before the pack members start tentatively coming into
the room.
“Come in, get some food and have a seat. Once everyone is here we’ll begin,” Hunter tells them.
“Did you want to eat now?” I ask Letti.
“I don’t think I could get anything down, Sophie. I’m so nervous,” Letti
says.
The four of us stand near the door, greeting everyone as they come in. I watch the pack members assessing Jake and Letti as they walk through the door, or as they sit and begin to eat. Most of them are talking in low voices but I’m pretty sure they’re talking about their initial impressions of the two. No wonder poor Letti is nervous.
I squeeze her hand, trying to help calm her, as Hunter goes to close the door, and Jake takes her hand to lead her to the front of the room.
Hunter quickly grabs some food for me and takes me to a seat so we’re next to where Jake and Letti are standing.
“Hello everyone. My name is Alpha Jake, this is my mate, Luna Letti. We’ re here today to talk with you about our plans for the pack that we won, what was previously Alpha Owen’s pack lands.”
For the next hour, I watch as Jake and Letti explain who they are, where they’ve come from, and talk about their plans for the pack. They’ve decided to rebuild the packhouse and to create homes around the pack lands. Jake talks about creating a pack with a new feeling while Letti talks about how she-wolves will be allowed to train, will be expected to participate in patrols, and will have equal rights and expectations as the

males in the pack. They also let everyone know that there will absolutely be no public claimings in the pack and that Jake has already started alliances with Alpha Ezra and Alpha Robin with the intention of extending that to Hunter, Dutton, Kayce, and Amelia.
They take questions, some of which don’t have answers, but they let the people know that they will make those decisions as a pack. In the end, can feel the excitement of the group, as if they are ready to head home and begin their new life, in their new pack, with their new Alpha and Luna
