“Yeah. The two I wanted, the ones closest to here, went to Jake and Lucas. But the pack right next door is available now and I’m hoping that one will become available for us to compete for. I was serious when I said this pack is the best. The other Betas would argue with me about their Alphas and Lunas having the best packs, but you’ve spent time with our Luna. She’s awesome.”
“Yeah, she is.”
“Get a shower. I’ll have food and clothes sent up for you. Get some sleep, and when you’re ready, come find me. I’d like to hear more about this Alpha that is chasing you so I can make sure the pack is prepared to defend against him and whoever else may come for you.”

I let the water in the shower begin to warm and I turn the water on in the sink, letting it warm while I go to get the baby tub that we bought for Rory. Thankfully, my mate is a planner, and she had nearly everything prepared for our son’s arrival
before she was taken.
I get the baby wash, towel, a diaper, and some pajamas and return to the bathroom. Nikki pulls the shirt off and steps into the shower, sighing as the warm water washes over her. I notice that her injuries still aren’t healing, which means that Adira isn’t back yet.

I turn back to the sink, filling the baby tub with warm water before setting it on the counter and carefully laying my son in the tub.
