Chapter 0356
“What are your plans for today, Grace?” I ask as we finish our food.
“I want to get the computer set up for the kitchens and packhouse.” She stops, turning to me. “Did you get them out of the car yesterday, or were you
interrupted.”
“They must still be in the car.” I look up at Noah. “You didn’t get them out, did. you?”
“No, Alpha. After everything happened, it completely slipped my mind. And once I found Sirona,” he pulls his mate closer to him, kissing her. “Well, after that, my mind was focused on other things.”
Sirona is a blusher. I can tell Noah will enjoy making his mate blush as frequently as possible. From the corner of my eye, I see Carlos flinch at their show of affection. Time for me to find out what’s going on.
“Carlos, how about you and I go get the computers. Hopefully there wasn’t any food left in the car.” I
I say.
“No, the omegas were helping us unload.” Grace says.
I extend my hand to Grace, helping her to stand, taking any opportunity I can to touch her. I kiss her hand before letting her go. “I’ll bring your computer to you and then Carlos and I will go set up the computer in his office. Noah, why don’t you start looking around for offices for the ranked members. Try to keep us as close together as possible. Then, take your mate to the pack hospital and let her see what she’s up against.”
I turn to her. “It will be a lot of work, I hope you’re ready for that.” I tell her.
“As I told Luna Grace, I don’t mind hard work and I love a challenge.”
I can’t help but smile. “Well, then, you’ve found your mate in the right pack because hard work and a challenge are what we’ve got for you.”
I drop Grace off in the kitchen before Carlos and I make our way out to Noah’s car. It’s unlocked, but I have to pop the truck to get the computers out.
“So, you want to tell me what’s up with you and your mate?” I ask him and watch. as his lips press into a thin line.
He may not want to talk about it, but he needs to, so I wait him out.
Finally, he sighs, and we lean against the car, setting the computer boxes on the
ground. “She has a child, but I don’t know what it means that no one is looking for her. I assumed that she was in a relationship with another wolf. I mean, wouldn’t the father want to know where his child is? I know it’s a girl, and some wolves, especially Alphas, feel that girls aren’t worthy of being heirs, but 1 couldn’t image letting a woman who was carrying my child just walk out of my
life.”
“Why haven’t you talked to her?”
“It was a little chaotic last night.”
I look at him, raising my eyebrow. “Noah found time to fight against the hunters, help the injured and still mark and mate his newly found mate. And you’re telling me you didn’t have time for a conversation with yours?”
“Okay, fine. I didn’t know what to say. And….” He stops, running his hand through his hair. “And maybe she doesn’t want a wolfless mate.” He says quietly.
And there it is, the real issue.
“It didn’t seem like it to me at breakfast. She seemed sad to me, maybe even a bit heartbroken that her mate is ignoring her. She has no one, and she’s going to remain in this pack. You’re going to have to talk to her and figure this out. If you decide to reject her…”
He cuts me off. “I would NEVER reject my mate! I can’t believe the Moon Goddess even gave me one. Why would I give that up??” He practically yells at me.
“Then act like her mate. Or at least, talk to her and find out how she got into this position. She’s not just running from hunters, Carlos.”
His brows pinch together. “What do you mean?”
“She’s a single mother, with a baby, alone in the world. Do you even know how long she’s been with the hunters?”
I can see the moment he understands my meaning. If no one is looking for Amber and she has a baby, maybe her pregnancy occurred while she was with the hunters. Or maybe the baby’s father was killed while she was pregnant. Either way, it means she’s been through a lot..
“You’re right. Thank you, Alpha. I’ll talk to her.”
“Now is good.” I say to him as I reach down and pick up one of the computer boxes.
“Now?”
“Yeah, now. No time like the present. I can set up the computer while you take
+15 HONGS
your mate and have a good conversation. Figure things out with her and when you’re done, come meet me in your office and we’ll talk about our new training schedule.” I say as we walk into the kitchen, and I nod for Carlos to put his computer box on the counter.

You said in other chapters Cara smells like vinallia and lavender and now are saying she smells like vinallia and honey. Didn't know of that was on purpose or a mistake....
