Chapter 0212
We were sitting in the lounge of our family home back in pack after a long drive, and had been there for the past number of hours since we arrived. My Mum was almost as giddy as my sister at the fact Marc was here with us. Both my parents had been shocked, to say the least, when they discovered Morgan had found her fated mate, as she had failed to inform them of that, wanting to see their faces as we arrived. And, well, she had been right, their faces had been a picture, that was for sure! But, at the same time, they were both incredibly happy for her after the whole mess that had gone on with Miles.
Marc had passed my Dad's near interrogation, bless him. And all with a smile upon his face. He obviously had expected it, and no doubt it would be repeated when he met Jordan tomorrow. But, that was just my family trying to protect the youngest daughter. Not that they had anything to worry about, Marc would not harm her, and he would protect her with his life.
"So, you will be returning back to his pack with your mate?" My Mum looked at Morgan with a sad expression. She and Morgan had always been close, and I think in truth she would have liked Morgan to be mated with someone in our pack so she could have been kept close. That way it wouldn't have felt like such a loss when she moved to live with her mate.
"Yeah, I will pack my things up while I am here and take them back with us." Morgan told her, a big smile on her face, evidently missing the struggle it was causing Mum.
"Do you even have a house out there yet?" Mum suddenly demanded, taking even me by surprise. Was she actually looking for reasons Morgan shouldn't be going with her mate?! I imagine if it was me she would have been packing my things for me and pushing me out of the door!
Marc looked to Mum with a soft smile. "We didn't when we left. I shared a place with some other warriors, but I have spoken to the Alpha, he will be sorting one for us, so by the time we return one will have been allocated for us. I would never have expected Morgan to live in a house full of warriors. We will have a lovely little home to call our own. Do not worry, I will ensure Morgan has everything she needs." He tried his best to reassure her. Mum nodded, her face dropping slightly as she realized her last reason for trying to keep Morgan home a little while longer was gone. "Mum, Marc is a good guy.” I told her. “Morgan will be fine with him. I know they have only just met, but in that time I have seen how happy they have made each other. And Marc comes highly recommended from the Beta of Autumn Valley Pack."
Dad looked at me in surprise. "You actually bother talking to him? He is such a grumpy fool. Didn't think he would be capable of holding a decent conversation."
I heard Marc chuckling, while I smiled. "He isn't all that bad, really, once you get to know him. Maybe you just caught him on a bad day?"
Dad looked at me like I had lost my mind. "What, every time I have had to deal with him? Hmm, I doubt that. I know a grumpy fucker when I see one."
Marc was grinning now. "He can be a little cranky at times. But, overall, he isn't a bad guy." He said. "I was surprised actually they didn't get invited to the wedding."
I looked at Marc in shock for
questioning the choices of our Alpha, and looking at the expression on my Dad's face, he was a little surprised too. It was normal procedure for senior members of a pack to be invited to weddings events of other senior pack members of other packs.

Alphas and Betas of other packs to their wedding, but I had heard nothing of an invitation when I had spoken to Asher or to Eden for that matter, and we spoke each day through message.
"They kept it to the two packs, I believe." My Dad explained. "Not
wanting to make too much of a fuss. Though going off how much
Marshall complained, the bride-to-be would have easily had the equivalent of a royal wedding!" he rolled his eyes în disgust, making me smile. Sounded to me like Miles had picked himself a mate who was as high maintenance as he was. Not that it surprised me in the slightest. But, it was their special day. Of course, she wanted it to be as big and special as it possibly could be.
"Well, so long as they have fun!" I said with a smile, not caring in the slightest. I just wanted to get this wedding out of the way and return to pack. Back to work, and more importantly, back to Asher.
"Why would I find it difficult?" I asked her, irritation was lingering in the tone of my voice and I could feel Morgan's hand on mine, I assume, in a sign of reassurance. "I never wanted him, and I can assure you I never would. The fact he is getting married may mean I am finally free. Free to enjoy my new job and my life."
I saw my Mum looking down guiltily. While my Dad cleared his throat. “Ah about that, Bailey. There are rumors about a position within the pack junior school coming up. So, you may be returning sooner than we thought." And my heart fell s at his words, as I saw Morgan and Marc looking at me with concern. They wanted me home?
