GoodReadX Chpater 391 Dinner was nice. It was good to have everyone together as a family. Charlotte didn't throw her dinners as often as she used to, so it was good to have everyone under the one roof. I loved the chatter that filled the room. The laughter and the love of everyone here. Everyone was floating around chatting and drinking coffee.
Another tradition that cwith the dinner. Coffee was necessary.
"Bear". Carter nodded. "Ready for your first patrol?".
"You didn't cfor coffee". I frowned. "I invited you over and you didn't come. You didn't even respond to my text".
"You texted me?". He pulled out his phone. "Oh, yeah so you did. Sorry Leah I've been busy trying to get back into the swing of things". "How is it being back home?".
He shrugged. "It is what it is. How are you doing?".
"I'm good". I smiled. "Doing my first patrol, looking into going to college and I'm going to be taking more responsibility within the pack".
"That's not what I meant". His voice lowered.
I knew exactly what he meant but like I told everyone else I wasn't ready to talk about it yet. I was doing okay with keeping it locked away. I would talk about it when I was ready to. "I'm fine Carter I promise".

"I'm guessing your parents didn't take the news well that you were coming back here".
"Something like that".
"What happened Carter?".
"Everything is good, nothing for you to worry about. I'm here, I'm not going anywhere everything's fine". He kissed the top of my head. "Kick a*s tonight".
Everything was not fine, but I wasn't going to pry because it was none of my business. He knew I was here when he wanted to talk or vent.
I placed my cup of coffee on the side table and went in search of Jake. He had disappeared after dinner and had yet to show face again.
I was always in awe when I chere. Their house was mesmerizing, and I always found myself distracted with the decor. It didn't takelong to find him. He was in the office with his dad shouting about something. Of course, as soon as I stuck my head inside, he fell silent.
"Ready to go?". He asked.
Oh yeah, I had interrupted something.
"First patrol tonight, Leah. How are you feeling about it?". Jacob asked.
"Good, excited".
"And Alanna is going with you?".
I nodded. "She's showingthe ropes".
A laugh fell from his lips. "I'm sure you'll do simply fine. Am I right in saying Rocco will be out there also?".
"He will?". I frowned turning my head towards Jake.
"Rocco is always night patrol. He'll be doing the outskirts while you and Alanna do the inside".
"By himself? Is that safe?".
"He prefers it that way". He smiled. "Now are you ready to go hand get ready for tonight?". "Yes". I grinned.
I napped for an hour and when I woke Jake had already packed a bag for me. Extra clothes, snacks the lot.

"I appreciate it, but I'll be fine". I was excited about this. It was an exciting tforand for lake to be on of the and for board with it made it even better. He had faith innot only as a mate but also as a wolf. "I never said you wouldn't be fine I just said if you need to pull out then you tell Rocco".
