Daddy is back

The plan had worked flawlessly, but the pack would have stayed in the base for the weekend at least. It was to prevent any accidents.

Also, Lara had cancelled her appointment with Doctor Mason, just in case, saying she had to skip a week. It was better to stay safe; her problems wouldn't run away. She would spend the next few days taking care of her family and the pack, paying attention to their mood swings.

Nate said it would be a difficult battle, so she was nervous. Oh, she was dead scared he would be hurt or worse! But she had to pretend to be unaffected, for the others. She had noticed a few stares at her: the other wolves would look at her, trying to deduce whether there was any reason to worry.

The kids were unresting, and not just the twins. Most of the wolves in the base weren't warriors or soldiers, and they would do small chores to keep themselves busy. No one was willing to sleep even if it was getting late.
