Tony sent a text to Thalia, his ally: Are you there?
Thalia replied with a werewolfish growl: Yeah, I am.
Tony sent another text: I need your help with something.
Thalia replied with a sneering emoji: You need to work on that attitude if you’re gonna ask someone for help, kiddo.
Tony frowned as he texted reluctantly: My dear Thalia, who’s the prettiest woman on Earth, could you please help me out with something?
Thalia nearly howled in amusement when she saw his message. She couldn’t help but wonder if Tony had written that with a flirtatious smile or through gritted teeth.
Regardless, she enjoyed receiving compliments, even if they weren’t sincere.
Thalia bared her sharp teeth: Good boy. At least you’ve got the attitude part right.
Tony growled: Pretty girls like you should protect kids like me!
Thalia chuckled: You’d have to be an ordinary kid for that to happen.
Tony challenged her: So, are you gonna help me out or not?
Thalia flashed her claws: I’ll think about it.
Tony sent a message with a sly smile: Okay, in that case, I won’t hold back anymore. If I recall, the person you offended previously is still hunting for you all over the internet. I don’t mind sending him your picture, you know?
Thalia’s eyes glowed with anger as she replied: What the f*ck, Tony? Have some boundaries, will you?
Tony taunted: That depends on the situation.
Thalia’s fur stood on end as she tightened her grip on her phone: I really hate being threatened.
Tony smirked: So?
Thalia snarled: Keep in mind that I’m not doing this because I’m afraid of you. I’m just choosing to let you win this time. Now, tell me, what is it that you need help with?
Tony chuckled, pleased with her submission: Gramps brought me home today, so my mommy is all alone at the hospital. Could you help me watch over her?
Thalia’s instincts kicked in as she realized the danger: You’re worried that the mysterious person will come for her tonight?
Tony confirmed: Yeah.
After a moment of consideration, Thalia reluctantly agreed: Okay, no problem.
Tony grinned: Make sure to be discreet. I don’t want my mommy to find out about this.
Thalia grumbled: D*mn, this is such a pain in the neck!
If he hadn’t mentioned that, Thalia would’ve howled her frustrations to Nelly.
Knowing the difficulty of his request, Tony assured her: There will be a huge reward for you after this is over.
As Tony had always been generous with his rewards, Thalia agreed without hesitation: Don’t worry! I’ll be sure to keep your mommy safe!
Feeling a sense of relief, Tony texted his gratitude: Thanks.
Thalia replied with a nod: No need to thank me. Just make sure to have that huge reward ready!
Tony smirked: Of course. You won’t be disappointed.
Thalia gave one last warning: All right, I’ll be heading out now.
A smile formed on Tony’s wolfish face when he saw her compliance.
“Who are you texting, Tony?” Alpha Wade asked, his voice laced with authority, as he drove.
“Oh, I was just having a little chat with Ben and Donna,” Tony said, putting his phone away.
Alpha Wade didn’t think much of it and nodded approvingly. “Does it feel different now that Donna and Ben are staying over at the Morris residence?”
Tony shook his head, his eyes glinting mischievously in the moonlight. “Nope.”
“Don’t you want to go be with them?” Alpha Wade inquired.
“Gramps, do you think I’m jealous of them?” Tony’s voice held a hint of amusement.
“Isn’t it normal for kids like you to get jealous? Besides, they don’t even know about your existence yet,” Alpha Wade replied.
“No, it’s me who doesn’t want them to know about my existence,” Tony corrected him with a wolfish grin.
“Why is that?” Alpha Wade pressed.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“I want to know what their true intentions are. If they really want to try and take Donna and Ben away, then I will have a chance at rescuing them. It’s always better to have a backup plan,” Tony explained, his eyes gleaming with cunning.
Alpha Wade burst out laughing, a sound that echoed through the forest. “And if they aren’t actually trying to take my grandchildren away, then finding out about my existence will come as an additional surprise for them,” Tony added, his voice dripping with mischief.
Alpha Wade reached out to ruffle Tony’s hair, a proud smile on his face. “With kids like you three around, I suppose I have nothing to worry about.”
Tony flashed him a confident smile, his wolfish gaze meeting Alpha Wade’s. “You mean both you and Mommy have nothing to worry about, Gramps.”
Alpha Wade nodded in agreement, a sense of security washing over him. “Of course. Even your great-grandpa said I’m truly blessed.”
“You got that right!” Tony exclaimed, his wolfish grin widening.
With a warm sensation in his heart, Alpha Wade focused on the road ahead. The moonlit night was filled with the howls of the pack, a reminder of the strength and unity that bound them together.
Meanwhile, Alpha Kilian was behind the wheel, navigating the darkened forest road, while Alpha King Larry entertained the kids in the backseat.
Alpha King Larry had a wolfish grin plastered on his face as he watched over the children with love and pride.
Alpha Kilian stole glances at them through the rear-view mirror, a soft smile tugging at his lips. The sight of his children filled his heart with warmth.
Suddenly, an idea struck Alpha King Larry. “Alpha Kilian, call our housekeeper and have them prepare the two bedrooms next to mine.”
Alpha Kilian frowned in confusion. “But I’m currently occupying the room next to yours.”
“You can sleep in a different room tonight. Actually, you’ll be using a different room from now on,” Alpha King Larry declared, his eyes glinting mischievously.
“Why?” Alpha Kilian asked, his curiosity piqued.
“Because I plan on renovating both of those rooms,” Alpha King Larry explained with a wolfish grin.
It was clear that Alpha King Larry was spoiling their children, but Alpha Kilian didn’t mind as long as they were happy.
If Alpha King Larry hadn’t been there, Alpha Kilian would probably have been the one showering their children with love and affection.
Soon, they reached their destination- the Morris residence.
The housekeepers were taken aback when they saw Alpha King Larry bringing two young wolves with him, but they welcomed the children with open arms.
The Morris residence became alive with the sound of laughter and the scent of fruits, both local and exotic, laid out on the table for the children.
The butlers and housekeepers adored the kids just as much as Alpha King Larry did.
“Why do they resemble a young Mr. Alpha Kilian?” Dan, one of the housekeepers, couldn’t help but ask.
“It seems you’re the only one with sharp senses around here,” Alpha King Larry replied with a wolfish grin.
“So, these kids really are…” Dan trailed off, realization dawning on him.
Alpha King Larry nodded, his eyes filled with pride and love for his family.
