Chapter 17

Gabby, Finn and Max woke up and went downstairs. Neither Rylan nor their mother was in the kitchen. They didn’t scent breakfast and it was too early for Rylan to be outside working. Wondering where he was, they walked to their mother’s room to ask her. Gabby opened the door and blinked as she saw Rylan, sound asleep next to their mother. Finn grinned at her and all three of them ran to the bed. She helped Max and he climbed onto the bed. She and Finn joined Max on the bed. Max pushed at Rylan. When he didn’t wake up, he slapped him on the face.

“SHIT!” Rylan cursed as he woke up to a stinging pain on his face. Max grinned at him happily and Rylan shook his head.

“No hitting, Max.” He pulled the little boy into his arms and gave him a big hug. Feeling left out, the other two piled on him as well. Rylan was glad he had long arms, long enough to hold his children.

Evie felt a sharp elbow poking into her back. Sleepily she turned to find Gabby, asleep on the bed next to her. Max was next to Gabby, curled up against Rylan. Finn snored softly on the other side of Rylan. Even in his sleep, Rylan kept a secure arm around Finn, preventing him from falling off the bed. Her heart squeezed tightly at the sight of her family in Rylan’s arms.

He deserves a chance to be happy. We all do.

Deciding to make breakfast, Evie left her sleeping family on the bed while she headed for the kitchen.

Over the next few weeks, their routine didn’t change much. As she did every morning, Evie made breakfast. Once Rylan and the children awoke, they ate and went for their usual morning run.

The rest of the day, Rylan would keep the children outside, allowing them to play in wolf form. Sometimes he would take them into the woods and show them how to track an animal. Other times they would wrestle in wolf form and he would teach them how to attack.

He still continued to patrol the forest when Evie had the children safely indoors. At night, once the children were fast asleep, Rylan and Evie would head to their bedroom.

One night, as Rylan carried Evie to their bed, the phone rang. Frowning, Rylan set her down gently on the bed and she reached for the phone. It was an unfamiliar Tarchannen number.

“Hello?”

“Evie? This is Kainda. May I speak to the alpha?” Puzzled, she handed the phone to Rylan.

“It’s Kainda.” He took the phone from her, replying, “This is Rylan.”

“Do you remember me from the hardware store?”

“Yes.”

“Remember what we spoke about?” she asked in a hushed tone.

“Yes.”

“We have a problem. Our Alpha, Jordan, has been murdered. Remington is now our Alpha.”

“What?” Rylan sat on the bed beside Evie.

“Hang on a second. I’m going to put you on speaker.” He pressed the button as he turned to Evie. “Evie, Honey, Jordan has been murdered.”

They listened as Kainda shared what she knew.
