Chapter 120: Sebastian Sebastian My mind is all over the place when I arrive at Ryan's pack. But, as always, he's there waiting for me on the front steps of the packhouse. I feel the familiar wave of pride in my son. He's such an incredible Alpha. He's going to be pissed that he not only got knocked out of first place, but down to fourth. If I wasn't so torn apart about Christina, I'd be itching to tease him about it. When I get out of the car; I grab my bag and walk up to my son.

His eyes narrow. He obviously doesn't like whatever he sees on my face. "Walk with me?" he asks. I feel my throat tighten and I drop my bag on the porch before. falling into step with my son. He waits until we're far enough away from the packhouse to have some privacy before speaking. "Want to talk about it? Or should I say, do you want to talk about her?" "How did you get to be so smart?" "I had the best fucking role model in the world. So, who is she?" I look at him.

"Christina Kneeland." He whistles, looking over at me. "You never did do anything by halves, do you? Tell me about her." 1 sigh and look out over the familiar forest surrounding the pack. lands that I once led. "I fell in love, Ryan." "I take it she's the one you were pining over before you left last time." "I wasn't pining," I say but he just raises an eyebrow at me. "I've been developing feelings for her for a while.

I asked James to make her my assistant and then I pushed her to take the classes this semester." "I imagine as Alpha Dane's little sister, she did a damn good job." "She's number two on the leaderboard now," I say proudly. "Of course she is. She had you coaching her." "Nah. It wasn't me. It was all her." "Then why hasn't she taken the classes before?" he asks. "She needed to realize that her success didn't make her brother less.

She adores him and I understand why, but she needed to get out of his shadow." "And you helped her do that." It's a statement, not a question. "I did. I also asked her to be my assistant in the sex class." 12.18% ။ Chapter 120: Sebastan 288 Vouchers He stops and turns to face me. "And how did that work out for you?" I scrub my hands over my face. "I loved your mother, Ryan. I loved her with everything in me.

But what I've experienced in the last two and a half months… it was never like that with your mother. I need you to understand that I loved your mother with. my whole heart and soul, and if she were still alive, that would never have changed. But she's not here and losing her changed me. I have chance to start a new life, Ryan. A life with Christina. I didn't just fall in love with her. I love her as much as I loved your mother. I didn't think that would ever be possible, but here I am.

I need for you to understand that this isn't a betrayal of your mother. I'm just a different man now. I need a different kind of woman in my life." "Why would I think of it as a betrayal, Dad?" "She was your mother. She was my soulmate. And now, I'm telling you that I love another woman the same way that I loved her." "I can't imagine ever loving another woman the way I love. Caroline. But I can also never imagine surviving if I lost her." He looks thoughtful as I wait for his judgemént.

"Did it ever occur to you that maybe mom sent her to you? " he asks, finally looking at me. "What do you mean?" "We all believe in the Moon Goddess' realm, Dad. We don't have this kind of love and magic in our lives without believing in a higher power. Don't you think that mom has been watching over you, wanting you to find happiness again? She loved you just as much as you loved her.

If the roles were reversed, if you had 25.124 died and she had survived, would you want her to live the rest of her life alone? Or would you have wanted her to find happiness again? I think mom would want you to be happy. I think she would understand that you're a different person now. She's gone. She's not coming back. But that doesn't mean that you have to live the rest of your days as half a man, Dad.

If Christina makes you happy, then take her as a mate." I hadn't considered that my mate might be watching over me. But now that Ryan has said it, I know he's right. I would never have wanted Suzanne to live a life of loneliness. I loved her enough that I would have wanted her to find happiness, even if it wasn't with me. "You know, Christina is closer to your age than mine," I say. "Age is just a number, Dad." "She wants pups," I say. "Is that a problem?" he asks.

"I don't know, is it?" "Not for me. My half siblings will be the same age as my pups, but so what? You always wanted a daughter. So, I'll ask again. Is that a problem?" "At first, I thought I was too old to do it all over again. But now, with her, I can't get the image of a little girl with long blond hair running around these pack lands out of my head. I want it so much it hurts." "So, make that dream a reality. You deserve to be happy again, Dad. If she makes you happy, then I'm all for it.

I still expect to Chapter 120 Sebastian 1120ouchers see you and I want to finally meet the woman that not only put the fear of the goddess into every Alpha on the planet but is also the woman who stole my father's heart." "I'm pretty sure it was Alpha Dane who put the fear of the goddess into every Alpha on the planet," I say. "Either way, she must be very special. Do I need to worry that Alpha Dane is going to kick your ass for touching his sister?" I smile.

"I think Christina might have something to say about. that." "Where is she with all of this?" he asks as we turn to head back to the packhouse. "Feeling like she's second best and always will be with me. She told me that she fell in love with me but that she deserves to be number one in someone's life." "You didn't set her straight on that?" I think about last night and how I dominated every minute of our time, pushing my love and frustration into her, forcing her to accept every bit of it.

"I've given her a lot to think about over the next week," I say. He snorts. "I bet you have." He turns and looks at me. "I'm surprised you're waiting a week. That's not like you." "I'm waiting for two reasons, well three really. I needed to talk to you, make sure that you and I were good on my decision," I say honestly. "I will always be in agreement with whatever is good for you, ||| 1845 Chapter 120 Səbarlian 268 Vouchers Dad. I hope you know that.

What are the other two reasons?" "She needs to talk to Dane, and I'm hoping that he can help her work through some of the mess in her head. I wasn't kidding. when I said she adores him. Her adoration borders on hero worship." "From everything I've heard of the man, it's warranted." "It is. I'm hoping I'll finally get a chance to meet him. The other. reason I'm not pushing to see her this week is she's going to one of the young Alphas birthday parties." That makes him stop.

"She thinks he's her mate?" "No, but he and one of the other assistants fell in love and he wanted her there. Christina is going for moral support." He smiles. "Like a true Alpha." "Exactly. It's Tyler Cunningham's birthday." "Aw, shit. Tanner's little brother. How did he do this semester?" Now that I've talked to Ryan about Suzanne, I feel more like teasing my son. So, I smile broadly as I drop the bomb on him. "He's number one on the leaderboard." He spins to look at me.

"Wait, what?" Then the wheels start turning. "You said Christina is number two. I fell to number three?" I shake my head slowly, watching as he frowns. O "We had three Alphas make it onto the leaderboard thist semester. You, my son, are now number four on the leaderboard." "Son of a bitch! Who's the other one?" I laugh, wrapping my arm around my son's shoulders as we walk into his packhouse.

I feel lighter now as I tell Ryan about the semester and the three amazing Alphas that bumped three people off the leaderboard. That night, I find a spot outside to sit by myself as I sip my whiskey. I look up at the moon shining down on our pack lands. decided that Ryan was right. The only way a woman as perfect for me as Christina is could have shown up in my life is if Suzanne sent her to me. "Thank you, Suzanne," I whisper. I'm prett
