Chapter 259


    Chapter 75: *“That depends on Alora.“*


    Sitting between Alpha Andrew and Luna Ember, Alora felt a sense of warmth that was like a healing balm to her


    torn, battered heart. Jaxon came into the kitchen just as Alora was taking a bite of her warm and gooey cinnamon roll. Alora let out an involuntary moan


    buds it was so good.


    Ember let out a smallugh, her smile


    as she looked at Alora was soft and loving. The smile a mother would have as they looked at their child. “I take it you like my cinnamon rolls?”


    Alora could only nod and give an “Mhmm,” with her mouth full. Andrew let out an amused chuckle at Alora’s response.


    “Did you grab everything?” Kain asked Jaxon when he sat down with the twin after loading up a te for himself.


    Jaxon nodded. “I got all the essentials, including the game system.”


    “Sweet!” Galen said, “Zombie maps tonight?”


    “You bet.” Jaxon said, before taking a bite of a caramel and chocte chip brownie. Immediately he closed his eyes and groaned. “Holy Goddess this is


    “Right!” Kain eximed. “It’s all so good it should be illegal.”


    “If I wasn’t a Werewolf, I would worry about bing a blob.” Galenmented, before biting into what he thought was the ultimate oatmeal raisin cook


    Serenity giggled at their reactions. “Did you get my things too Jaxon?” she asked.


    Swallowing another bite of his brownie, Jaxon nodded. “Janice stopped by to drop something off for Aunt Camille. After telling her what I was doing, she


    Serenityughed then. “Big sis is awesome! I’ll make sure to call herter.”


    “She’d find a way to make you pay for it if you don’t too.” Kain said, his tone wry.


    Jaxon turned to the twins. “Janice also said you two were to call her and tell her all about the Alpha you two have offered your services to as well.”


    Galen and Kain both grimaced, causing Serenity to startughing at their expense. Ember was delighted, she loved watching the interaction between the


    love and warmth swept through him. Camille and Alfred were amused at the way their pups and Jaxon were talking about their eldest daughter Janice.

    “Has Richard’s mate already assigned Kain and Galen rooms?” Alpha Andrew asked Luna Ember.


    Ember nodded. “Yes. Kain and Galen now have a two–bedroom apartment they’ll be sharing in the Enforcer wing.”


    “What about Jaxon?” Alpha Andrew asked her.


    “That depends on Alora.” Luna Ember said, startling Alora.


    Alora looked at Luna Ember with wide questioning eyes. “Me?” “Why would Jaxon getting a room or apartment depend on me?‘ she silently wondered.


    Luna Ember’s gaze focused on Jaxon. No words were spoken, but that look from Luna Ember was very easy to interpret. It said, “Get on with it.” Jaxon t


    Jaxon cleared his throat and rubbed his hands together nervously. “I, Jaxon Stone Mountainmover, formally request to be n Alpha Alora Luna Heartso


    Alora’s eyes were wide with surprise, she never expected this. “What should we do?” she asked Xena and Selena.


    “We should ept his offer.” Xena stated.


    “ept his offer.” Selena second.


    “That is a very fast decision. Why do you two think we should ept him?” Alora asked them.


    “Can’t you feel it?” Xena asked a question back instead of answering.


    “Feel what?” Alora asked.


    “The sense of rightness in the offer, like we are meant to ept it.” Selena told her.


    At Selena’s words, Alora focused internally for a moment. It didn’t take more than a


    second for her to catch the feeling. It was like there was something pushing her to ept, an instinct she couldn’t name. This sense had her agreeing w


    As soon as she decided she would ept, the words to do so came to her. Alora got up from her seat and went around the table, stopping in front of Jax

    Pressing both bloody lines on their palms together, Alora stated, “I, n Alpha Alora Luna Heartsong, ept Jaxon Stone Mountainmover as my Beta, a


    After speaking those words, Alora felt a bond snap in ce, and a mind link formed. There


    was also the feeling of Jaxson connecting to the others that came to her through her oath to the Alpha. It reminded Alora that she needed


    to perform the same type of eptance with Kain and Galen as her Elite Enforcers.


    Jaxon felt the responsibility of bing Beta to Alora and the Heartsong n settle around him. The weight of it felt right, like he had always


    been destined to carry it. After finishing with Jaxon, Alora stepped forward and stood between the


    twins. They stood up and faced her as soon as she was there, sensing that it was now their


    turn to make their position as Alora’s Elite Enforcers official.


    “Do your offers still stand?” Alora asked them.


    They both nodded and said, “Yes.” Offering her their palms without her having to anything.

    Alora drew lines across both of their palms, before re–


    drawing the line across one palm and drawing another on the other palm. Holding up both of her palms, the twins pressed the bloody lines of their own to


    “I, n Alpha Alora Luna Heartsong, ept you Kain Shadowstone Mountainmover, and you, Galen Shadowstone Mountainmover, as my Elite Enforce


    “Well, our lives have certainly be more interesting today.” Alora said to Xena and Selena.


    “They have.” Xena said, “And just think, the day isn’t even over yet.”


    “It’s almost nightfall, what more could happen in the next several hours?” Selena asked.


    Alora felt her stomach drop. “I really wish you wouldn’t have asked that, Selena.”


    Selena was confused. “What was wrong with what I said?”


    Xena let out a sigh of resignation. “It’s out there now. No taking it back.”


    Xena’s words and reaction to what she said had Selena even more confused. “I’m not understanding, what part of what I said has brought on this reactio


    “It was the ‘what more could happen‘ part of your question.” Alora told her.


    “By saying those four words, you have basically challenged the universe into putting us through more.” Xena exined.


    Selena, now fully understanding her error, could only say, “Oh.”


    Alora let out a startled “oomph,” when Serenity ran into her and wrapped her in another hug. Serenity was obviously physical when ites to her dis


    “I


    guess we’re going to have to get used to this kind of thing.” Alora said to Selena and Xena.


    “I think she’s cute.” Xena said, genuinely amused by Serenity.


    “Absolutely adorable.” Selena said.


    Alora raised her hand to pat Serenity on the head. “I take it, I have pleased you?”


    Serenity loosened her tight hold on Alora enough to look up at her with a wide smile and sparkling eyes. “Yes! You’re the best! Thank you so much for ac

    When Alora looked over at Darien, she caught him smiling in a goofy love–


    struck way at Serenity. Alora imagined if they were in a cartoon or an anime, Darien’s eyes would be giant


    pounding hearts bulging out of his head. All her ufortable feelings fell away, and Aloraughed, highly amused by the look on Darine’s face. Alora e


    “We have so much to celebrate after the pups finish with their exams.” Ember said to Andrew, a wide loving smile on her face.


    “That we do my dear. That we do.” Andrew said, before leaning over to ce a gentle kiss on her temple..
