chapter 49(2)

Sage stares amazed at the printout from the ultrasound the entire way home, like she is worried it will disappear and not be true if she looks away. Pulling up out front of the packhouse, I am excited to be home and want to rest. Malik stretches, also tired, before hopping out of the car. I open the door for Sage, and Malik unclips Jonah's seatbelt. I can see some of our patrollers returning, and I tell Sage we will tell the rest of the pack tomorrow, wanting to let it sink first, and she agreed. "Thanks, Malik," I tell him. "Anytime, Alpha," he says before walking toward his house. Jonah skips around the car and over to us when I spot Casen walking back from patrol. "Oi, Casen!" "Yeah, Alpha?" He says with a wave. That little shit. He starts jogging over toward me, and I head toward him. "I just want to check the spitting wand," I tell him, and he stops in his tracks. Malik laughs as Casen backs up. "Run, Casen. He said he's going to break it!" Jonah screams out to him from behind me.
