About ten minutes later, the door opened and Porter came in with a pair of werewolves. The black-haired male looked dour and watchful while the blond female's eyes went instantly to Jason. They lit up with an expression that made my wolf growl in discontentment. How dare she look at our mate with such familiar affection?

Jason grinned back at her. I didn’t like it, even if I was being irrational.

"Jason!" She rushed forward, and threw herself at him.

"Andrea!"

I took one step forward, in an unconscious attempt to rip the little bitch away from my mate, before I stopped myself. I was the luna, so I had to act like the luna. Assaulting a visitor for touching Jason was the opposite of luna-like behavior. Even if she was being completely inappropriate.

She finally stepped back. "I really thought you all were dead, until Max stopped by our pack, Jason. Or, Alpha Jason, is it now, I hear?" she asked, her voice gratingly bright and cheery.

"Well, it's something like that." Jason glanced at me, as if suddenly remembering that I, his mate, was there in the room with him. "Carrie, this is Andrea, and...?"

I had almost forgotten that the male was also there in my overwhelming irritation with the female. He was frowning as if no more pleased by the display than I was. Him, I liked.

She stepped back and linked her arm through his. His face instantly relaxed. "This is my mate, Trevor. He's a fighter from Kemptruin," she said. "He found me when I was running away from..." Her face fell for a moment.

"Don't be jealous, babe. She was the Glenhaven beta's daughter, so I worked closely with her father. Zero romance, I swear. She was always like this." Jason pulled me towards him, and I relaxed, too. "I just recently found Carrie when she trespassed on our territory a little more than a month ago," he explained.

"Trespassed on formerly unclaimed land that had no sign it had been claimed," I clarified, giving him a look to show my displeasure at his inaccurate summary.

He just returned his typical shameless grin.

Andrea laughed. "Congratulations! I'm so happy for you both. I know finding Trevor was the best thing that ever happened to me, and just when I needed him the most. I don't know what I'd do without him now. Anyways, when I heard that you were starting a pack, Jason, I just had to come and visit. Hopefully it's a good surprise. And now I have to get to know your mate. It's great to see that Glenhaven wasn't entirely destroyed. It lives on in us, and our children."

"Children?" Jason asked, a smile in his voice.

She grinned. "We've got twin toddlers, and another on the way."

"Congratulations to you too, then," he said. "That's the best news."

What I could feel of his emotions through the link between us was happiness, but also longing. I turned to look at him more closely. He had been so nonchalant during our conversation about pups of our own, but maybe he wasn't willing to admit how much he wanted them. Probably trying not to pressure me. My resolve to let nature take its course on my next heat grew. Really, I was past ready to have my own.

Andrea was still talking. "We didn't want to trouble you too much, so we've got a room at a hotel on the main highway, but I was hoping we could get a little tour of what you're doing here. And maybe you could join us out for supper tonight? It could be like a double dateβ€”oh, I'm sorry, Porter. I mean, you're invited as well, of course." She cringed and shot him an apologetic look.

"It's fine," Porter said, in a voice that sounded like it meant exactly the opposite. Things definitely weren’t going smoothly between him and Amanda.

Andrea floundered for a second, obviously belatedly realizing that she’d hit a touchy subject, and she didn't even know the half of it. I was about to step in and rescue her, but her mate beat me to it. "No, you should come, Porter, since I'm sure Kain won't want to be left out, either. Andrea has spoken about him nonstop since she heard he survived. Apparently he’s a really cute kid."

I could only imagine his disgusted expression at hearing that description.

She brightened up at the reminder. "I would have liked to see Max, too, but I hear he’s off searching again. Poor Max. I wonder where Lillian ended up. I was so worried for all of you when we were released, but I couldn't think of anything that could be done. It was terrible, leaving you all and Kylie behind, but I could tell she wanted us to go."

β€œShe did seem to want us free.” Jason commented, his face not giving any reaction.

As Andrea continued to chatter, Jason asked me privately, "Are you up for supper tonight?"

β€œSure. We still need to eat.”

β€œWant to come along on our tour right now?”

A huge part of me wanted to go along just to keep an eye on the female who touched Jason way too much for my liking, but I knew I was worrying about nothing. Seeing an old pack member clearly made him happy, and I didn't want to stand in the way of that. "I should keep working, I think. Maybe invite them to eat lunch with us and the pack as well? I’ll join for that."

Jason kissed me in response, and then turned and led our visitors away.
