Milo returns home to find his Beta waiting for him.“Charles,” Milo says with a nod.“You are mated to a human and have children with her?” Charles asks.“Yes,” Milo answers.“Then I, Charles Barren, Beta of Reynolds Pack, challenge you, Alpha Milo Reynolds, for the title Alpha,” Charles declares.“Fine,” Milo smiles. “Let’s go.”“You aren’t afraid at all?” Charles asks, his voice shaking.“Nope. I spent my time in jail working out. I spent time with Justice training, and just this morning I had sex with my mate. I’m about as fit as a fiddle. I don’t want anyone in the pack who can’t respect my Luna, and if my Beta feels he can run the pack better, I am more than happy to prove him wrong,” Milo removes his jacket. “Let’s go, the captains are watching. Alpha Kinder will be my second.”“I got your back,” Kinder smirks, sitting on the hood of his own car to watch the fight.“To submission,” Charles stumbles a little.“No, this will be to the death. Anyone who challenges me or disrespects

15 YEARS LATER“HANK!” Terry yells, running from the car and jumping on his favorite person in the world.“Terry!” Hank hugs him close.“Hank!” Oliver also yells, joining their hug.“GROSS!” Catherine Reynolds yell at her brother and his best friends.“What is so gross?” Oliver asks, smirking at her.“You three all over each other,” Catherine makes a face.“Bet you wouldn’t care if I was all over you,” Terry says, surprising himself. He quickly stutters and recovers. “Sorry, no idea when that came from.”Hank looks between his best friend and his sister.“You guys are only a few months from sixteen,” Oliver smiles. “You might be you know what.”Terry and Catherine smile at each other.“I’m okay with that,” Terry declares.“Me too,” Catherine giggles.“Okay, but right now, today is about me,” Hank reminds them. “I am becoming Alpha today.”“Yes, this trip is about you,” Temperance joins them. Sebastian and their daughter, Nova, behind her.“Hi Hank,” Nova smiles, walking up to him.“He

“You sure we can’t come too?” Terry asks. “I want to meet her.”“Can I meet her properly first?” Hank asks, running his fingers through his hair again.“You have your whole life with her,” Oliver laughs. “We have to return to our packs tomorrow.”“Guys,” Hank holds out his hands and his friends chuckle and don’t follow.“You can hear him, right?” Terry asks Oliver.“How do I have better hearing than you?” Oliver asks.“Want to take an eye test against me?” Terry asks.“Okay, you can see him, right?” Oliver asks.“How do I have better eyesight than you?” Terry mocks him. “Yeah, I got him. Damn she is hot.”“What does she look like?” Oliver asks.“Your complexion, maybe a little lighter, natural curly hair. Sweet face,” Terry tells him.“See any weapons or anything?” Oliver asks.“No,” Terry confirms.~~~Hank approaches her with caution.“You can cross the border, you are Luna here,” Hank tells her.“Yeah, I know how you guys work. I cross the border and you never let me go. My father

Hank walks Juliet to the border before the sun comes up.“The past 36 hours have been,” Hank can’t find the word.“Orgasmic,” Juliet offers.Hank smiles and pulls her to him for one more kiss. After dinner, they said good-bye to everyone and returned to their bedroom for more love making.“We had a few of those, yes,” Hank smiles at her.“You had a few, I’m still high from losing count,” Juliet teases.“Will be waiting patiently for you to come visit, or to text me, where to meet you,” Hank tells her. “Just know you are loved here.”“My next text will be telling you about the next attack,” Juliet tells him.Hank nods. “Luna Juliet, text me three times a day, if you miss more than two in a row, I’m tracking you down.”“I promise,” Juliet smiles. “8am, 12pm, 9pm.”Hank nods in agreement.They kiss and Juliet crosses the border.She back tracks several times and goes the long way around. She stays in the neutral zone for the most part, unaware that Hank can feel every time she steps over

“Happy Birthdaym, an,” Hank slaps Terry’s back.“Thank you,” Terry says, sitting down to breakfast with the Reynolds family.“Just three months,” Catherine bounces into the kitchen.Terry lights up with a huge smile.“Just three months,” Terry tilts his head up and Cateherine plants a kiss right on his lips. Her wavy brown hair covering their faces so no one sees how passionate or deep it is.“I’m gonna be sick,” Hank shakes his head. His phone goes off.Juliet- Dad, took a turn for the worse. We may not head out raiding for a while.Hank- I miss you.Juliet- Can you meet me at Biczi Pack?Hank- YES! I’m going there today with Terry.Juliet- I’ll meet you there tonight. Will the Alpha and Luna let me stay?Hank- I’ll get you and I a hotel for however long you can stay.Juliet- No more than two days.Hank- Okay. See you tonight.Juliet- YES! *Heart emoji*“Juliet says her day has taken a turn and will likely not go out on schedule,” Hank tells Milo.“So what do that mean for you and Jul
