I watched my mate, my official mate of three days, while he fought for his position as Case I hard and donte toat win. He’s a great fighter, but an even better instructor, which is what the Comes you to train for ward pack
Our pack. I’m still getting used to the idea of being a part of this prack. I watch as Nisha Werres pop over at konses? for the pack, the goddess, and the world to see. The love that is shared in this pack is see anything that I’ve more se definitely unlike anything in Thomas‘ pack, even when his father was Alpha
This pack feels good. The camaraderie, the cohesiveness, is unlike anything I’ve ever sees or This park are: should. They act like a family, protecting each other, and working together. Even this compton and Reynes Se different.
I’d been terrified that these five warriors would work together to take Haynes out’s what world have happened previous pack. They would have worked together to find his weaknews and one by one they would har played o weakness until one of them took him out, most likely forever. Death in these types of competitions Thomas‘ pack. But it’s just another difference here,
When Luna Yara tells Haynes that she expects to congratulate him later on his win. I’m surprised arm. First that identified who her preference is, but second, rather than making it more of a competition, the other realized the He won’t let his Luna down. They were ready to give up and let him have the position
And then the biggest surprise of all, Alpha Warren told them to continue. He’s right. The not knowing for sure could o animosity in the future, it could mean that warriors test Haynes and therefore me, more than they should because she never truly found out if he could defeat them.
In between each battle, Alpha Warren gives Haynes a break to breathe and get some water. He always jogs over and loss me, each kiss becoming more and more sweaty. But I don’t care. At first, I thought it would feel strange for him to k front of others. In this pack, though, it feels right. I’d almost be upset if he didn’t kiss me in front of everyone
When he defeats his final opponent, he first checks to make sure he’s okay, congratulating him on a good fight, then be turns to me. I race into his arms, slamming my body against his as I wrap my arms around him.
“You did it!” I say excitedly, before kissing him.
I can feel his growl of happiness vibrating against my body as I kiss him.
“Congratulations, Gamma,” several warriors say. I can feel them slapping him on the shoulder as they pass, but he doesn’t stop kissing me.
When he finally pulls back, he smiles at me. “I think they were talking to you.”
I bark out a laugh, just as Beta Charlie and my sister come out to congratulate Haynes
“Gamma Haynes,” Charlie says, walking up.
“Gamma Laney,” Noelle says, smiling at me.
“Beta Noelle,” I say, before pulling her into a hug. A year ago, I was terrified that I wouldn’t be able to protect my sister, to keep her away from Thomas or the others who wanted her, but now, here we are, in this amazing pack and we’re both ranked members.
“Why don’t you go get cleaned up. I believe our Alpha is planning another celebration for you tonight.”

“Another one?” I ask.
56 vouch
“We have a lot to celebrate. Good things are happening in this pack. We should always celebrate good things, and now w
can.”
I look at my mate. “We should definitely celebrate,” I say proudly.
“What kind of celebration are we having?” he asks, his eyes darkening.
I laugh. “Every kind possible.”
“Perfect, let’s start now,” he says, scooping me up and carrying me into the packhouse.
“Get something to eat,” Charlie calls from behind us.
“Oh, I’m definitely going to be eating,” Haynes growls, making me blush. I’ve never blushed as much as I have since I me this man. I don’t think I’d ever blushed before, ever. But now, I know exactly what he’s saying, what he means, and what a will feel like when he has his face between my thighs.
I can’t wait.
Noelle POV
I lean into my mate as we watch Haynes, Gamma Haynes now, carry my sister up to their room where I’m sure they will begin celebrating right away.
Charlie kisses the top of my head. “Come walk with me,” he says, taking my hand and leading me away from the packhow
I know my mate. I know he’s focusing on the patrols, making sure they’re running as they should be, making sure that the celing in the pack is positive and nothing seems out of place. He, as much as Alpha Warren, manages this pack and everything in it. For the longest time, it’s just been the two of them and they did a fantastic job of taking care of everything Now though, they have Luna Yara and myself. And now, we also have a Gamma couple to help run the pack. I know it will ake my mate a while to finally let go of what he’s been doing his entire adult life.
wait until he’s finished with his mental overview of the pack, watching this strong, sexy man as we walk
You’re staring at me,” he says, turning to smile at me.
I’m not staring at you. I’m looking at you.”
Is there a difference?”
Yes, one is creepy and the other isn’t,” I say, smiling up at him. He chuckles. It’s a warm, deep sound that I love hearing
Why are you looking at me then?”
‘Well, besides the fact that you’re bringing me out here for a reason and I’m waiting to hear it, I was watching you assess the pack. You’re very good at it. You could have been an Alpha, you know?” I say.
He shrugs. “Like I’ve told Warren, his job sucks. Being a Beta is MUCH better,” he says.
‘Is it? Because truthfully, the two of you do almost the same things for this pack. I’ve been watching you run this pack and wo of you move in a seamless synchronization. When he takes care of one thing, you shift to cover what he’s not watching and the same for him when you move to focus on something. It’s impressive. And the two of you have obviously been doing it so long that I don’t even think you realize you’re doing it anymore. Like now, you know Alpha Warren is upstairs, waiting to talk to Luna Yara about whatever she came by to tell him earlier, so you’ve just automatically taken over monitoring the entire pack. When he comes back down for the party later, he’ll re–engage and you’ll shift to covering only certain things.”
