The iming by Cooper Book 3
Layan’s Return by Cooper (Jara & Mason)
Layan
I told Mignon that I would watch her babies while she and Alpha Asher went to the council meeting.
Katerina is watching Alpha Mason and Jara’s twins, and we told Annabel that we could watch E, her
daughter as well. So, we put them all on the floor in the living room together and took turns watching
the younger ones while cooking breakfast and feeding the older ones. McKenna came down and
helped as well.
Title of the document
“So, who do you think will go in first?” McKenna asks.
Katerina shrugs. “Not sure, but it would make sense that it was Layan.” She looks at me. “You only
have to choose 10 males for your iming and I’m guessing that you already have two picked out.”
She says smiling at me.
“You do?” McKenna asks. I haven’t spent any time with her before now so I’m not sure why she’s
surprised.
I nod. “I do, but I also don’t want to go first. I guess it doesn’t matter what we want, they’ll pull our
names from a bowl like they didst year,” I say. wiping baby food from Gianna’s mouth.
“Soooo, who are you choosing for your im?” McKenna asks me.
“Beta Elijah and Alpha Davis.”
“Oh. Alpha Davis is your Alpha isn’t he?” She asks and there is something about the way she asks that
has me looking up at her.
“He is.”

“Is he a good Alpha?” She asks.
“He is. He’s been very kind to me this past year.”
“Good. I intend to choose him for my iming as well.” She turns to Katerina. “What about you, Kat?
Are you going to choose Alpha Jonas for your im?”
“No, I spoke to him yesterday. I won’t be choosing anyone from my pack.” That has my head shooting
up.
“Are they mean?” I ask, my nerves kicking in.
“Oh no. It’s just… he’s been with my mom, you know? It’s too weird.”
McKenna shrugs. “As long as he will be faithful once we’re mated. I don’t care. It’s practically
impossible to find any male that has experience, what with so few females and all.”
“How about you, McKenna? Anyone other than Alpha Davis that you are going to invite?” Katerina asks
her.
“Yep. All four Alphas and the two Betas. I’m hoping to be a Luna, but I wouldn’t mind being a Beta
female.”
“That’s only six.” I say to her, realizing that she ns to include both Elijah and Alpha Davis into her
iming. Something about Elijah ending up with McKenna doesn’t sit right with me.
“I know. The others I’ll have to talk to and get to know better, but we have two weeks, right? They are
giving us two weeks to choose our imants?” She says, looking between us.
“Yes, that’s what our documents said.” Katerina replies.
“How about you, Katerina? Will you be including the other Alphas and Betas into your im?” I ask her.
“Not Alpha Jonas, as I’ve said, or his brother, Beta Jared, but the others I will. Except, I get the feeling
that Beta Elijah is going to remove himself from our imings and only enter yours Layan.” She says to
me, smiling.
“What? Where did you get that impression?” I ask, surprised.
She shrugs. “He’s the only ranked member that didn’t ask me to dancest night. But I saw him
dancing with you several times.” She says.
I frown. I hadn’t really been paying attention to who was dancing with whom. The other Alphas had
asked me to dance and while I was grateful that they were kind to me, I knew that there was no way I’d
be inviting any of them into my im.
“You know, he didn’t ask me to dance either.” McKenna says, watching.
“I didn’t know. I didn’t ask him to only dance with me.” I say, not sure why he would do that.
It’s just about time for us to head over, when the Lunas and their matese through the door. They
all immediately go to their pups.
I watch them a moment, feeling sad. The doctors told me that I won’t know for sure if I can have pups
until I try and then, I may not be able to carry a pup to term. It still makes me wonder why the Alphas
want me. It’s very likely that I wouldn’t be able to have pups and that doesn’t even include me getting
over my fear of being with someone to even make that possible.
Jaraes over to me. “Are you ready?” She asks quietly.
