Luna’s Replacement
Gave asks rhetorically.
-"Well, I am his father's mate. I guess that makes me his stepmother. I always wanted kids, so I don't mind him calling me that."
-"You always scare her." Carl says, trying to calm down little Caroline, who started sobbing.
-"Hey now, Pal, I am innocent. Naomi and I were having a conversation. I didn't even see her." Gabe defends himself.
-"Why is she frightened of you?" I ask.
-"I might or might not have used an Alpha growl on some five-year-old kids bullying her, scarring them for life." Gabe says, scratching his head, guilt plastered all over his face.
