Chapter 0389
I watch a single tear slip down her face before she closes her eyes, and she whispers a muffled thank you. Eli puts a hand on her shoulder. “We’ll be back again tomorrow to check on you. Until then, rest and get your strength back.”
When we get back to the packhouse, I stop in the kitchen to check on how things have gone while we were away. I notice several omegas looking at me and looking
away.
“Is there something you want to ask me?” I say to the room at large.
It’s Cammy that responds. “We were wondering, Luna, if you happened to ask if omegas were welcome at the pack gathering.”
“Oh yes. I did, and as I said, everyone is welcome. Luna Angel was quite excited to have more attendees, so you need not worry.” I say and while I expect that to cause them to relax, it doesn’t.
“Is there something else?” I ask.
“Well, it’s just, it’s just that….” Cammy begins, stammering her response.
“We’re all terrified to go to another pack without one of the ranked members there.” Summer finishes for her and I look around to see everyone nodding their heads.
“You’re afraid they might mistreat you, or worse, not let you leave?” Eli asks, coming up behind me.
Again, everyone nods their heads. I look at Eli before turning back.
“Well, we can’t have that. I guess I’ll be accompanying you to the pack gathering next weekend.” The change in their demeanor is instant and their happiness at being able to possibly find their mates finally becomes apparent.
Over the next week, Joel and Peyton, the parents in the hospital recover slowly. Joel ended up losing his leg, but Peyton was able to keep her eye. She’ll always have scars on her face, but they will fade. Peyton and her children were able to move to the packhouse by the end of the week. As houses are being completed, we have more rooms available.
Peyton had worked in the kitchens as the person responsible for smoking and curing meat in her previous pack. Eli immediately found out what she needed to set up a smoke house for smoking and curing meat. This way, we can send out pack members to hunt for food more often and we will have a way to store it
1/2
other than filling the freezers.
The news spread that I would be going to Shadow Falls for the mate gathering. and 30 omegas agreed to go, bringing our numbers to 80 for the gathering. Angel was thrilled that we would have more people coming and that I would be joining them. She suggested we take the time to practice boosting our gifts.
Eli stayed behind to continue helping with the rebuilding effort while I led our pack to Shadow Falls. It was my first time in their pack, and I loved it. The falls are beautiful and the view from the top is amazing.
I count our first mate gathering a success as 26 pairs, or 52 wolves found their mates. Fifteen of those wolves are omegas from our pack. Of the remaining eleven, six are warriors and the other five are workers, one is a worker in the garden. She is mated to a warrior in the Canyon Ridge pack and has decided to move their where she and Maddison can begin building a garden for their new pack. Surprisingly, the warriors chose to stay in our pack, having the opportunity to build their own home and create a new life for themselves and their families. Thankfully, their mates agreed.
Not surprisingly, the omegas are reluctant to leave our pack. That was not a problem for most of them, but there were five that are mated to warriors who have achieved some status in their pack and want to stay there. In addition, most of our pack’s workers are mated to warriors and the same issue applies.

Where is the first of the guardians children’s books I can’t find it. Is it not done yet? I’m so invested in the whole saga I’m loving it and am itching for more!...

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....
