Bab 364: Wait from a comfier place

The twins had been calm the last few days. Lara knew it was because of the tension in the pack. The war was over, but they hadn't found Polenta. As a result, they continued living in the base. It was safer, and the wolves could hearten each other when their mood was down.

Once out of there, they would go to their home and live far from each other after working hours. Somehow, being together made them remember how good it was to feel part of a pack.

«What are you doing, kids?» Lara asked, noticing how they hadn't moved from the sofa, looking at the door without even blinking.

Were they waiting?

«When will daddy come back?» Scarlet asked.

«I don't know. It should be soon, though.»

It was late, and her cubs would usually be sleeping already. She didn't force them to, but they didn't seem to have any intention.

She scratched her head, wondering whether Nate would be unhappy to find his pups awake so late in the night.
