the last few years but when Channing was younger he would be the first one awake. He would rush to the

kitchen and turn the coffee maker on before going to see what Santa left in his stocking. Then when the coffee

was done brewing he would wakeand Walter. | smiled at the memory as | pushed the button to start the

coffee marker.

While the coffee was brewing. | walked into the living room to get the fire started. This place was a Christmas

wonderland and | was going to give myself ten minutes with my cup of coffee to enjoy the c rackling of

the fire.

By the t| had the fire roaring, the coffee was ready. | poured myself a cup

and sat down on the couch with my feet on the coffee table. Moments like these are overdue in my life but |

“Told you.” Lily chimed in.

“Yeah. Yeah.” | rolled my eyes.

It wasn’t long until Walter joinedon the couch with a mug of coffee. He sat back besidewith his feet on

“I think Blake should explain everything to you. But he did askto join your pack, to which | agreed.” | sat up

and looked back at him.

“| get to watch over my daughter and granddaughter. It’s what | want, baby girl.”

“And | want you there.” | told him.

We sat in silence, listening to the crac kle of the fire. | knew my ten minutes were up, but | didn’t want to move.

“Aspen, what are you talking about? Is this about the girl you were tellingabout?”

“No, this is about the war with the council. I'm not going back to Alpha training. I'm staying to protect you, Evic,
