The Luna’s Choice

Chapter 152

Chapter 152: Ayla We spent the last few hours of the night as our wolves, getting to know the new parts of ourselves. Dasha and I woke up with Kieran curled around us. Nudging him awake, we made our way back to the house. We hadn’t made nearly enough progress in the house, and we were running out of time before we had to get back. However, our progress didn’t change much, as we had trouble keeping our hands off each other. Eventually, we agreed it would be better to just hire some movers to take care of everything. Theo had taken his dad’s truck down, so we loaded up some of my boxes, including the metal container from my dad, and prepared to return home. Before we left, I took a few minutes to be alone, went to the backyard, and sat at the base of a tree. I held the small canister that held my father’s ashes. Theo had found them in the rental car and kept them safe for me. Looking at the house, holding them in my hand, remembering his words in the letter, I felt like he was with me again. “Hey, Dad,” I spoke to the space around me. “You were right.” I laughed. “Theo is my mate. And even though he’s made some mistakes, I think he’ll be a good one. I know I’ve made some mistakes, too. And I know, in some ways, I let you down. But I still think you’d be proud of me. I hope so, at least. “Thank you, Dad. For always being there for me. Even when you weren’t there,” I said with a smile. “I’m on the right path now, which means it’s time to say goodbye to this place.” I took a deep breath, holding back my tears. “I miss you so much. And I love you.” I opened the canister, sprinkling a little bit of him in the grâss. Now, he could watch over the next family.

“I’m sorry you have to let it go, babe,” Theo said about the house as we pulled out of the driveway. I smiled. “It’s okay. It was time,” I replied. “I mean, Dad didn’t seem to think we’d be there forever.” “What do you mean?” “The box,” I started. “He thought we’d meet once we turned eighteen, and I’d move out, taking Ma and Kylee with me. That’s why he didn’t tell anyone it was there. Just to remember the shed. I’m just glad we found it. I have everything I need. Now, it’s just a house.” Theo laced his fingers through mine. “Why don’t I build you a new one?” I snorted. “We have the packhouse, babe,” I said. “I don’t think I’ll have any trouble making our apartment home. As long as you’re there.” He smiled. “I know, but it’s still a packhouse,” he said. “Sometimes there’s not a lot of privacy. That’s why my parents got the lake house. I liked growing up in the packhouse, but it was nice to know I could have some time with my family and friends that was just ours. So, what if I built us our own?” “And I suppose this house you speak of would be beneficial for that thing your dad asked me to help him with?” I teased. Theo chuckled. “I was just saying it was nice to have the space. Sometimes, I don’t want to share you cohabitating with – with everyone.” “Cohabitating?” I giggled. or anyone else we may be 40.35% 11:47 Chapter 152, Ayla “Well, yeah, I don’t know what you were thinking, but I was planning to have our pups live with us,” Theo said. “I’m glad to hear we’re on the same page, then,” I said. He lifted my hand to kiss the back of it. “Good,” he said. “But, you know, baby, that doesn’t mean we

can’t send them to Grandma’s and Grandpa’s for a night or two every now and then. When we need some alone time.” “Right, like when you don’t want to share me?” I chided. “Exactly,” Theo said with a broad smile. I laughed as I laid my head back against the seat. I looked at Theò, my eyes landing on the mark his collar didn’t cover. Three months ago, never would have believed I’d soon be moving out of my childhood home to be the Luna of my pack next to my fated mate and talking about building a house and having pups. Again, I found myself in disbelief at how many changes my life had gone through in such a short time. Not all of them were good. Some seemed bad but were good for me. And others were more amazing than I could have imagined. I still had some obstacles ahead of me, but I knew I wouldn’t have to face them alone.
