“It isn’t the first time.” She tried to justify it.
“It’s not the first time you are both a pain in the ass and a life safer.” I said back and walked into the kitchen. Alec was standing at the stove, putting cheese potatoes on a plate. “There is an apron hanging in the pantry if you need it.”
“I’ll put your food in a dog bowl.” Alec pointed the spatula at me.
“So tense.” Sitting down on a stool, Alec went to the fridge and pulled out two beers.
Twisting off the lid to the first beer, Alec smirked at me. “It’s fine, I’ll get laid tonight and be okay.”
Fake gagging, he took it too far. “Gross.” Taking the beer and getting a big swig.
“Two can play that game.” Alec said as the girls walked in.
“Go lay her down so we can eat.” Ice demanded.
“Still mad I see.” Getting up, I wasn’t going to push too hard. She did stay over and help with the babies and will be back. Laying Elaina down, she turned her head and rested her forehead against Adalynn. Those girls are going to be best friends.
“Who made this?” Penny asked. I had just came around the corner and saw her blow on the BBQ and before taking a bite.
“A pack member. I’m not sure who. We put out a memo about wanting freezer meals and so Penny could recover with the babies and not worry about food. There was many members that offered to come clean and help out, too.” Kristen said and took a bite.
“We only put the memo out because some people asked what they could do when you came back.” Alec asked.
Penny seemed really touched by this. “That is so sweet.”
Kristen looked at Penny. “You know you don’t have to go to the party.”
“I know but I think I’ll make an appearance. It would only be appropriate seeing as they all came here to help me… help us.” Penny sighed.
“If you are worried about not feeling up to it…” Kristen started.
“That’s not it. My wolf has completely healed me.”
“Seriously? I’m not even fully healed.” Kristen looked shocked. “I have a powerful strong wolf!”
“She is a pure alpha female.” Alec noted and took a swig of his beer.
“What is bothering you about it?” I asked. Taking the last bite, I took mine and Alec’s plate to the sink.
