The Challenge Two Alphas, One Girl

Chapter 57: Secrets and Spies

Fang’s POV

Astrid was ecstatic with the huge warm reaction she had received regarding her pregnancy announcement. I was happy for her. I was happy for both of us. I was scared shitless about being a Dad. My own Dad ended up being an alcoholic and then a would-be murderer. Speaking of my own Dad, I could not stop feeling drawn to Cody. The hair on the back of my inner wolf’s neck was standing up! Did my senses deceive me or did Cody smell like my…

“Dad,” said Thaddeus suddenly. Timbre looked up. “Is it ok if I show Cody the spot on our estate where we wanted the new building?”

“Son, today is a day of celebration!” Began Timbre, raising his hands in the air, the old viking about to make a speech I’m sure. Good grief.

“It’s ok, Baby Bear, you’re excused!” Said True, beaming at her eldest son.

“Hey!” Whined Timbre like a little school boy rather than a seasoned warrior and former Alpha. He pouted at his wife and mate, True, who gave him an innocent look from under her lashes.

“Papa Bear, it’s my luncheon today remember. Friday and I are the hostesses so we can excuse Thaddeus,” cooed Timbre, glancing at Friday encouragingly.

“Oh,” said Friday blankly. “Um, you’re…excused?” “Thank you, little Luna,” murmured Thaddeus pressing his lips to Friday’s forehead.

" for one, think commissioning Cody’s company to sort out that new building is an utterly brilliant idea,” chimed in True, winking at Elizabeth.

Even the mothers of Thaddeus and Maze were friends now! Ugh. I felt like I was on Barney and Friends. We were supposed to be in the middle of the Challenge. I got up as soon as Thaddeus and Cody did. Everyone looked at me. Astrid looked affronted.

“Please, um, Luna True, may I tag along? I, uh, love architecture,” I lied, hoping it was not obvious.

“Oh, Fang! Please, call me True,” chastised True. “Run along and have fun,” she said as though I were her fourth son and had asked to go to sports practice with my friends. She didn’t need to tell me twice. I gave a quick peck on the lips to a suspicious Astrid.

Thaddeus led Cody and I to the back of the main pack house where there was a vast open field. It was windy. The wind made the overgrown grass bow and rise again as one like a wave crashing through a green sea. The Berryndale landscape was really beautiful. I almost forgot my aim when I stopped to admire my surroundings. I recovered.
