We had a nice walk and when we got to the ice cream shop, I was floored when we walked in the door. It had the feel of the old-time ice cream shop and soda fountain. Behind the counter was a huge dark-stained wood shelving system with a series of spigots and a variety of syrups in bottles in the center. On the shelves to the right, there were four different sizes of glasses, straws and spoons with long handles. The shelves to the left held an assortment of styles of ice cream dishes and a container holding several ice cream scoops in sanitizing water. There were four freezer cases under a marble countertop. Inside, there were two-gallon buckets containing forty different flavors of ice cream. The glass windows on the outside allowed the customers to choose the flavors they preferred. I smiled widely as I looked around at the nostalgic décor. Joshua and I held hands as we approached the counter. I looked in the windows and noticed an ice cream that was a beautiful shade of pink, with c

I decided to wait until we got home to read the letters from my grandmother. I had a feeling that it was going to be emotional, so I wanted to be in our suite when I went through everything. I thought about taking all the boxes that were in her hidden closet. I think there might be some pack history in there. However, I decided to wait until I came back and load them in the vehicles or ask Andrew to send someone up with them. I’m not really in a rush. I don’t want to stress over it. After we were done with that hiding spot, I asked Jacob, “Are there any more hiding spots?” He replied, “No, except the tunnel.” Joshua, Andrew and I asked, “Tunnel?” simultaneously. We looked at each other and chuckled, but Jacob nodded, “Yeah. You didn’t know about the tunnel?” We all shook our heads and he explained, “There was an Alpha during one of the human wars who instructed a group of omegas to dig an escape tunnel. It was to keep the humans from finding us.” I added, “And I bet that’s how Alpha R

We have been back in Cold Springs pack for a week and I was forced to relax the entire week. Not only by my mate, but also by Alpha Matthew, Luna Jessie and, when I argued with all of them, they tattled to Doctor Simmons and I got a whole new lecture from him. I was pouting for the last couple days, so Joshua finally caved and let me go to the office today. I was so happy to get back to my office and sit at my desk and actually start getting some work done. Luna Jessie asked, “So how are you feeling?” I replied, “Better than I have been, that’s for sure. I’m excited to get back to work. I am no good at relaxing. I’m not used to it.” She laughed, “Get used to it, because you are going to have to do a lot of it and you will be thankful for it after those babies are born. Thanks to you, Matthew has been making me take afternoons off and go home. He wants me to do it for the rest of my pregnancy. So, what I mean to say is, thank you for that.” I laughed as I raised an eyebrow, “So you hav

As Honi sat in my office, I called Andrew. He answered on the first ring, “Alpha Izzy. How are you doing?” I smiled, “I’m fine, Co-Alpha Andrew. Do you have Jacob with you?” He answered, “Give me a second and I can get him here.” It was quiet for less than a minute then I heard Jacob made it to the call, “Beta Jacob at your service, Alpha.” I chuckled, “Hey guys, I need you two to come up tomorrow for a chicken parmesan lunch meeting. It’s pretty important. I’m hosting Raymond to see if we can reach some kind of agreement to stop these stupid rogue attacks. He’s still insisting on being called Alpha.” Andrew laughed, “Alpha of what?” I laughed, “I asked the same thing. We can get that answer tomorrow. Douglas can run things while you are gone. I fully expect a rogue attack while you are up here, so be sure to prepare Douglas for that.” Andrew agreed, “I will make sure to talk to him.” I smiled, “Thank you. If you guys could be here at eleven, we can talk about options. I want us all t

I asked, “What do you mean by that?” He replied, “They want to schedule a visit and appoint an elder to live at the pack to keep an eye on things.” I nodded, “That’s fine. Everything should be according to werewolf law, right?” He nodded, “Everything is actually better than when Ben had it and definitely better than when Raymond had it. We are still growing too. The school has already been cleaned, repaired where needed, and is now being stocked. We are planning on opening it to the kids in September. We are assigning quite a few of our kitchen staff to the school cafeteria too.” I smiled, “I was going to suggest that. I would strongly suggest trying to take volunteers first.” He agreed, “We will do that.” I asked, “Should I be there when the elders come to the pack?” Andrew shrugged, “Part of me wants to say no, but another part of me wants to tell you it’s a good idea.” I asked Joshua and Matthew, “What do you guys think?” Matthew sighed, “As badly as I want to tell you that you sho
