Kids From One Alpha” By Selena Lynch Chapter 96

Chapter 96: Preparing for War

“Are you sure you are fine taking care of the kids?” Serena asked Charlotte. Logan had gone on a walk with them after breakfast to say goodbye. He had promised he was going go home with them, and now he had to explain to them that it would be a little longer. Serena didn’t envy that conversation he had to have with them. “Olivia and Oliver will be perfectly safe in my care,” Charlotte assured. “It isn’t like I haven’t watched kids before, or your kids before.” “I know, mom, but this is different,” she said. “This could be a while.” “I know that, they know that, and they are excited to be here,” Charlotte said. “I won’t be taking them out on the boat to go fishing, but there are plenty of ways for us to entertain ourselves.” “I’ll check in a lot,” Serena said. “There really is no need, but if you must,” Charlotte said. “Ready to go?” Santino asked, coming down the stairs with a duffle bag. Serena nodded. “Just about,” she said. “Logan isn’t back with the kids yet, and dad is wrapping up a few things. “Will you be riding with Logan or us?” Santino asked, bouncing his eyebrows at Serena. She rolled her eyes and scoffed. “You guys, for sure,” she said. “Car could be a bit crowded,” Santino said. “I’m fine with that,” she said. She really didn’t want to be stuck in a car alone with Logan. “Mommy, mommy,” Olivia called, running through the front door. She ran up to Serena and hugged her. “Did you have a good walk?” she asked. “Yes,” Olivia said. “We are going to stay here with Grammy for a while.” Serena laughed, kissing her daughter’s forehead. “I know,” she said. “Don’t worry, Grammy will fill you all up with cookies and treats when she thinks I’m not looking.” “Yay!” Olivia said, wiggling free. “Give me a hug and a kiss goodbye, Oliver,” she said. Oliver ran up and hugged her. Serena kissed the top of his head and then nudged him along after his sister. “They will be fine with me,” Charlotte promised.

Chapter 96: Preparing for War

“Okay,” Serena said looking after the kids nervously. “We‘ve got to get a move on,” Thomas said, popping his head in through the front door. “Let’s go, let’s go.” Serena hugged her mother goodbye and grabbed her bags. She passed Logan in the front hall and nodded at him. He offered a smile and then left the house behind her. When they arrived back in Night Sky, Serena, joined her father, brother, Logan, and Carson at Logan’s office. “Oh, a whole family affair;” Carson said, shaking hands with Santino and Thomas. “We decided it was time to join forces,” Thomas said. Logan was at his desk, pulling out maps. “About time,” Carson said with a nod of approval. “Welcome home, Serena.”

“Thank you,“ Serena said. She was careful not to make eye contact, though. The last time they had talked, he had grilled her on questions she didn’t want to answer. Those questions were all out in the open now, at least between her and Logan.

He always started to shut her out when there was pack business to go over. Serena looked to the door. “No, I need her here,” Logan said. Serena turned around to look at him, arching an eyebrow. He gave her a subtle smile. She
