In Between The Alphas
Chapter 79

"How's your party?" Jake asked as he handed me a drink.

"It's not a party,"

"There is food, drinks and people are dancing," he counted off his fingers, "I think it counts as a party."

"I just came to congratulate my Luna and wish you good luck," he said, "You're going to need it if you're going to spend the rest of your life with Logan."

"I think I can handle him."

"Famous last words," he teased and I rolled my eyes.

"If you're done trying to scare my mate," Logan said as he made his way over to us, "I am going to take her now. I want to call it a night early."

"Well you're definitely not going to be doing a lot of sleeping," Jake muttered and I choked on my drink. "Then again, you are getting a lot more action than I am; I might just look for a nice girl to take home." "TMI Jake," I muttered and he raised a brow.

"We're leaving before he says something else that's inappropriate."

Logan and I said goodbye to his parents and to Diana and Greg. The latter was just as weird as Jake was and even made sure to inform us to use protection.

"We have the worst friends," I said as I got into the car, "They are absolutely embarrassing-,"

I had barely finished my sentence when Logan leaned over and caught my lips in a hard, bruising kiss.

"I'm sorry; I've wanted to do that all night," he said and I cleared my throat.

"No- problems-," my breathing was just as heavy as his and he gave me a smile before starting the car. Would you look at that? Our friends weren't exactly wrong after all.

I am absolutely terrified about my first day as Luna.

"Relax Charlotte," Logan said seemingly amused by my predicament, "It's just like every other day before,"

"No it's not," I shook my head, "This is completely different because now I'm not just Charlie, I'm Luna Charlotte." "You'll always be Charlie to the people who matter," he assured me.

"I forgot to thank you for the note yesterday," I said, "I can't believe I forgot; the note was really thoughtful."

"What note?"

"The one you sent with the flowers,"

"I can't remember," he scratched his chin, "Maybe Jake put it in; he was the one who helped me pick up the flowers because of how busy I was." "Well I'm going to thank him because it really helped calm my nerves,"

"Are you suggesting I give you a note now?" he teased and I rolled my eyes at him, "Come on, everything will be fine."

Logan walked me to my office and honestly his presence is what helped me endure the constant 'hello Luna Charlotte" I heard on the way to my office.

"I told you," I whispered as soon as we got to the door, "Before everyone would have probably just ignored me but now everyone is making an extra effort to say hi." "They just have a newfound love and respect for you because you're their Luna," he curled a strand of my hair around his fingers, "There is nothing to worry about." "I just like being invisible."

"They'll back off after a few weeks," he kissed me softly, "Just try to have fun; okay?"

"Okay," I mumbled and he kissed me again.

"I'll see you later,"

I made my way into the office and my smile grew even wider when I saw the lily on my desk. I picked up the note attached to it and my insides melted. Have a great first day Luna x

Logan really is the best mate ever. I smiled to myself as I sniffed the flower and I placed it in the vase by the desk and got started on all the paperwork.

By 2, I came to realize why being the Alpha is a very difficult and stressful job. If what I have to do is a half of what Logan does every day then I'm surprised he hasn't gone crazy yet.

I have been signing papers on pack extensions and school programs all day and right now the words are swimming off the pages.

I heard a knock on the door and I let out a sigh.

"You look like you're ready for a break," Diana said as she poked her head in.

"You can come in Diana,"

"I don't think so; the last time I was in here, we almost had a fight," she clicked her tongue, "I think this office is bad luck."

"I work here,"

"Maybe it won't work on you," she shrugged, "Now come on, your mate made it very clear that you were supposed to relax for at least half an hour."

"Let me just sign this," I signed off the last document and pushed to my feet, "Where are we going."

"Your favorite place in the pack house," she smiled, "The day care."

The twins were in the day care by the time I got there and I was happy when they greeted me as Charlie and not Luna.

A tiny body stumbled into mine and I reached down to steady Amelia before she fell.

"I still don't understand why this girl just loves you above everyone else," Diana mused, "I've known her since she was born."

"I guess she has good taste then," I shrugged as I lifted her into my arms.

"I am going to choose to ignore that," she huffed, but on the bright side, she didn't give us any trouble today."

I tapped her nose and she let out a giggle.

"Don't let any of the older women in the pack see this," Jake's voice came from the door, "Or they'll start asking when you and Logan are going to have kids." "You're just trying to scare me," I said

"He's not actually," Diana interrupted, "Every single day, no less than three women ask if I'm pregnant or having kids soon."

"Don't they think it's weird to ask such invasive questions?"

"They're old," Jake deadpanned, "They can do whatever they want and nobody is going to set them straight."

I looked at Amelia who was busy chewing on her lip, "No one better ask me about babies because of you."

She looked up at me in confusion and I just kissed her head and inhaled her baby scent.

"Having a baby wouldn't really be the worst idea ever," I said finally.

"Of course you would say that. You love children," Diana exclaimed, "Even the ones that are demon incarnates."

"I know a few demons who would take offense to that," Jake pointed out and Diana stuck her tongue out at him. Watching them bicker I realized how fortunate I was to have such amazing people around me.

"Oh no," Diana said suddenly, "She making those sappy eyes again."

"What sappy eyes?"

"It's a look you get when you're thinking about something emotional," Jake exclaimed and I gasped in mock surprise. "I hate the both of you."

"That's not what you were just thinking," Diana teased and I scoffed.

"Well guess what; I change my mind."

"I don't allow take backs in my friendships," Diana sassed.

"She's right unfortunately," Jake sighed, "Or I'd have gotten rid of her as a long time ago."

"Mean," Diana exclaimed and they started bickering again but were interrupted by someone clearing their throat behind us.
