41 Whose Your Alpha
Penny POV
“Penny, you know that you’re welcome to stay with us. You don’t need to return to the wolf pack. We love having you here with us”, my grandmother says. I love my grandparents and I will surely come back to visit, but I miss my parents. I miss Jennifer. I feel like I’ve been gone forever and my training is now complete. It’s time for me to return home. “Grandma, I appreciate the offer, but this isn’t my home. I will always visit you and Papa, but I can’t stay here.” “You can’t blame an old woman for trying.” She pulls me into a hug. “Richard would be so proud of the woman you have become my sweet girl.” Even though I never got to meet my father hearing my grandparents talk about him makes me feel like I did. He was an amazing man who loved my mother. I know he is happy that my mom found John. John has been such a good father to me. She pulls back and places her hand on my face. “I had hoped you would find your beloved while you were here so you would stay, but I understand. Promise me that you won’t forget to come and visit us. I would love for you to bring your mother, Jennifer, and John next time.” “Of course, grandma. You are my family and I will always make a point to visit.” She kisses my forehead and leads me out to a huge dining room. Everyone has gathered for lunch so I can say my goodbyes.
family.” She recedes to the back of my mind. “We are celebrating because she is returning to her home” my grandmother says. She squeezes my hand under the table and I couldn’t be more grateful for her support. “Troy, she is not only a fae but also a wolf. She deserves to have ties to both her wolf and fae heritages. Besides, she will need to find her beloved and he is obviously not here”, my papa says. He squeezes my other hand and I smile at him. Troy remains quiet for the rest of lunch and I’m grateful. We finish eating and I return to my room to gather my things. Once I’m ready, I head out to say goodbye to my grandparents. I hug them both “I will be back soon for a
outside the Fae territory. I press my hand to the tree and a door appears which I happily step through. I may not have the powers of my aunts or father, but I love my fae magic. I step out of a tree that is all too familiar. I’ve come here since I was a child when I needed to connect with the earth. I sit leaning against the tree just reconnecting with the forest that surrounds the pack. I didn’t tell my parents I would be back today because I wanted it to be a surprise. I hear a low growl and my eyes snap open. Three dirty brown rogues are twenty feet from me. They are growling and snapping their jaws in my direction. I stand brushing myself off. “Let’s show them just how extraordinary we are” Calista says, and I nod my head in agreement. The wolf standing in front shifts and smiles at me like I’m his next meal. “What do we have here, a helpless little wolf?” I have my Fae scent masked like I was taught to do. I won’t let just anyone know exactly what I am. They see me as a wolf, but they won’t live to tell anyone any different.
as fast as I can to my family’s home. I throw open the door and Jennifer screams when she sees me. I wrap her in a hug. “I missed you, Penny.” “I missed you too, little one.” She rolls her eyes, but let’s my nickname for her go this time. Loud footsteps are

clothes. I smile as I pick up the jeans and t-shirt. “You’re lucky we need to get to the Crescent Moon or I would be snatching you back to bed” Eli says. I turn when I hear his voice and smile. His hair is messy and he looks less stressed this morning. I’m glad I could make him feel that way. “I figure we can grab anything you need from the pack today and then we can go shopping
notice a girl across the dining room giving me a death stare. I assume this must be the Suzanne that was mentioned in the whispers yesterday. I turn to Eli and press my lips to his, making sure she knows he is mine. When I pull back, he smiles. He takes my hand, leading me to the front of the dining room. “I would like everyone’s attention. I have an announcement to make that will affect the pack”, Eli says, and you can hear a pin drop. “The goddess has blessed me with a second chance mate. Alpha Calliope Robison is my mate and the packs future Alpha.” I hear chatter
