82 Parker He was surprised to see Whitney walking into the packhouse dining hall that morning .
It was only an hour after sunrise .
He usually had breakfast with his mother and sister , the other children at the orphanage .
Which Parker saw no need to interrupt.
He liked how well the boy got on with all the other children here .
Not once had he seen him discriminate against any child , regardless of bloodline .
He couldnt say rank because even the omega bloodlines inside this pack were warrior ranked , and the kitchen chef was an Elite Warrior bloodline .
Something one would usually attribute to an omega bloodline in other packs .
Whit smiled at him and got breakfast , then came and sat down at his table .
Parker smiled at him , Morning Whitney .
He greeted him .
The boy nodded right back .
Parker could feel his unit all looking at him , they were due to leave the pack tomorrow .
He watched as Whitney pushed his food around on his plate for a moment before looking at him .
He knew there was something he wanted to ask .
Because his boy appeared nervous to him .
Id like to see your pack , he stated after a moment .
Parkers smile widened at those very words .
I would like to show it to you , he nodded .
The Easter break starts on Monday , Whitney stated .
Would you like to go back with us tomorrow ? he asked hopefully .
Whitney nodded .
Im not saying that Ill stay there .
Understood .
Parker nodded , and he heard Shannon clear his voice and found his Gamma looking right at him and even knew why .
Belladonna was not here for this conversation .
Have you talked to your mother about this ? he asked .
There was no way he was going to be allowed to take Whitney with him if Belladonna didnt agree to it .
Yes , she told me to come and tell you .
Mum also said she and Milly would go as well .
I dont think shed let me go on my own anyway , Whitney told him .
I highly doubt it , Parker agreed .
Id want your mother and sister to come as well .
I wouldnt want her to be here worried about you or that I would try to keep you against your will .
1/4 +8 Point : +9 Points 82 Freya would eat you alive if you tried that , Whitney snorted .
Have you seen her ? Parker asked .
Yes and ridden her when I was a small child .
Whit smiled .
Shes very pretty .
Would you tell me what she looks like ? Parker asked curiously .
F
No , if she wanted you to see her , she would let you .
Whitney shrugged .
Just me and Aston have seen her , I think .
And some strange woman that comes and goes , from this pack , when she feels like it .
Parker nodded .
That much he did know .
Whitney nodded but said nothing more .
It was likely Parker thought that the boy knew who she was as well .
Everyone was tight lipped about the situation , it seemed .
Your mothers wolf is a bit of a mystery , Parker stated .
Yes , Whitney agreed .
Even to mum , Freya claims Im not even hers .
Just mum and yours .
Whitney shook his head .
Parker did as well .
It was a very odd thing for a wolf to state , because they were one and the same .
But he also understood it to a degree at the same time .
He nor Vex had been allowed to mate with Freya , so the boy wasnt considered by her wolf as hers , just Belladonnas .
Ill have to talk to your mother about you all coming for a visit , he told Whitney .
You can talk to me about that , Alpha Aston stated as he dropped himself into a seat at the table they were all sitting at .
Bell has already informed me of Whit wanting to go and visit your pack .
You and I will have to sort out a deal to protect her and Whit , to see them be allowed to come back here if they want … You understand ? Yes , Parker nodded .
Ive already drafted something up , in preparation for this very moment happening .
Have you now .
Aston murmured .
Yes , I assure you its also all in her favour , her and the childrens , he smiled at Aston .
Hed worked on it months ago , not a mating alliance , not a pack deal , just a contract which saw Belladonna have the right to visit Lustrous Moon anytime she or Whitney wanted to , and for as long as they wanted to stay inside his pack .
It also saw them be able to leave and return to the Hollowed Moon at any given time , during their stay , for any reason they saw fit .
That he wouldnt stop them from leaving .
That he would have a full warrior unit escort them back , if she didnt want it to be him or his 2/4 82 +8 Poin unit , if hed done something or been the reason to upset her or Whitney , and either one of them wanted to be away from him for whatever reason they saw fit .
Hed made sure that she had choices as to what she and Whitney wanted .
He would not see her being caged into his pack like shed thought she had been the last time she was there .
No more , would there be any of that .
She would have the freedom to come and go as she pleased at all times and know this as well .
A meeting is needed , Aston .
Parker stated .
Mm , 10 am suit you ? Ive got a few business things to attend to and Bella has morning rounds after breakfast .
That is fine with me … he looked at Whitney .
Would you like to be there , to have a say in what you want yourself , Whitney ? he asked his son .
Mum will be there .
He stated , So I dont need to be there , as long as I can come back after the Easter holidays , Im alright .
Parker refrained from showing disappointment at hearing those words , just smiled at his son .
Of course you will be allowed to , he told him , though he knew deep down he was hoping that Whitney would want to stay inside the Lustrous Moon .
He also knew at the same time he had to give him the time to think about it for himself .
He knew Whitney understood what he was , and to not only Parker , but the Lustrous Moon pack itself , he was the actual heir , just wasnt there or instated formally due to the circumstances around his birth and the way hed lived his life up until now .
He was hoping that this was those steps being taken to see that happening .
He , however , wouldnt rush things , they had long lives , and he had to be patient was all .
He could see it happening , just not when it would happen was all .
Though , again , he was hoping it wouldnt take years , hed like Whitney to meet and make friends with the other children that would be in his Alpha Unit , bond with them and see them become close like he and his unit were .
Those children , Jamie , Jasmine , Randy and Adria , had all heard about Whitney and were also more than curious about him , the Alpha to their group that theyd never seen .
They wanted to meet the future Alpha of their pack and find out if he would take up the position as the packs Heir .
Hed told them he had a son , who was nine and a half , but was his mothers heir as she was also Alpha blooded .
So , he didnt know if his son would come to the pack at all .
Let alone be the Heir to the pack, it 3/4 +8 Points 82 82 was his hope that he would , but he couldnt guarantee it .
They also knew he was the son of the former Luna Belladonna , his mate prior to Carina .
The entire pack and all his subsidiary packs knew what had happened , what Carina had done , that shed been so very traitorous to not only him but the pack .
Having the knowledge of his son and the packs true heir , but had hidden it from him and all of them as well .
So , he wouldnt bring the boy into the pack and instated him as the heir .
Theyd all been shocked by her deception , and were actually glad that hed rejected her , and shed been sent away from the pack to be formally punished by the Wolfen Council .
They were also glad that Belladonna was open to him getting to know his son , with a view to one day them coming to live within the Lustrous Moon once more and him being able to instate his heir officially .
Hed only kept one thing from that , that he was looking to have Belladonna take up her old role as the Luna to the pack , that he wanted her back .
That he kept to those that needed to know , because he had no idea if he could achieve it and didnt want his pack getting their hopes up about the Luna that theyd loved returning to the pack and becoming their Luna once more .
