r 50: Ayla
The Blue Fang Pack resided in northern territory and was hosting the Alpha’s Gathering at one of their mountain resorts. There was a procession of cars ahead of us as we were chauffeured up the drive to the entrance. A valet opened Kingston’s door, and I slid over to get out on his side, accepting his offered hand. I looked up at the massive and elegant structure. It was gorgeous. All wood and warm light glowing in the early evening shadows.
Like most of the others, we arrived the evening before the meetings would begin. The Alpha’s Gathering would last the weekend. The itinerary primarily consisted of a string of meetings to allow each Alpha to discuss their packs and propose any deals with other packs. There were other events and seminars for the Betas and Lunas to attend if they wished, but they were also welcome at the Alpha meetings.
Kingston led me into the complex, and I was again left admiring our luxurious surroundings. But it wasn’t long before other attendees started to approach us.
“Alpha Kingston,” a large male boomed as he walked in our direction. “It’s good to see you. I trust your trip up was pleasant?”
“It was indeed,” Kingston said, shaking the hand that was extended to him.
“And who is this lovely creature you have here?” he asked as he turned his attention to me.

“This is Ayla, my date for this weekend,” Kingston said. “Ayla, this is our host, Alpha Harden of the Blue Fang Pack.”
“It’s wonderful to meet you,” I said with a bright smile as Alpha Harden planted a polite kiss on my hand. “I must say, Alpha, this is a spectacular resort you have here. It is quite beautiful.”
“Thank you, Ayla,” I replied with a proud grin. “I’m glad to hear that. It is the second jewel of our pack.”
“What’s the first?” I asked.
“My Luna, of course,” he said with a wink, making me laugh. “Speaking of, I’ve never known Kingston to bring anyone to the Gatherings. Dare I ask if he has found his Luna?”
I blushed as I felt Kingston’s eyes on me. “He’s working on it,” I teased with a wry grin, glancing up at him from the corner of
my eye.
Alpha Harden laughed. “Well, good luck to you, my friend. You best keep her close this weekend, or you may find yourself with some competition.”
He gave me another wink before leaving us to greet some of the other guests.
Kingston slid his arm around my back and leaned to whisper in my ear. “I told you you were meant to be a Luna. They all see it.”
I elbowed him gently. He chuckled and kissed my temple.
“Come on. Let’s head to the room, then we’ll come back down for some dinner,” Kingston said. “They can meet you then.”
“Okay.”

Chapter 50: Ayla
We reached the front desk, where a pretty brunette was getting everyone checked in. She gave us both a bright smile, but her gaze lingered on Kingston. I grinned because who could blame her? But I did instinctively scoot closer to him. He squeezed my waist as she handed us the key cards to our
room.
We walked through the lobby and down a few hallways until we got to an elevator that would take us up to the third floor of the wing our room was on. We were the only ones in the elevator, and as soon as the doors closed, Kingston was kissing me.
“What’s all this about?” I asked between kisses.
“This,” he began, “is for every f***ing male that couldn’t take their eyes off you back there.”
I had no idea what he was talking about, but I wasn’t going to complain. I pulled away when I heard the doors ding open. Laughing, we stepped out of the elevator and headed toward our room. We were only a few steps down the hall when I heard my name called.
“Ayla?”
I turned to see who it was, and my heart leaped. “Mina?”
We both practically ran down the hall and into each other’s
arms.
“What are you doing here?” I asked.
“Well,” she said, pulling back, “I came with my mate.”
“Your mate?” I gasped. “Mina, that’s wonderful. When did that

happen?”
She looked a little sheepish. “Um, that’s kind of a long story. Are you going down for the c***tail hour?”
“We’re supposed to be.”
Mina looked over my shoulder. “We?”
“Oh, Mina,” I said, “this is Alpha Kingston. I’m here with him this weekend. Kingston, this is my cousin, Mina.”
I hadn’t reached out to Mina since I left the pack, and there was no way I could explain everything in a few minutes.
“It’s lovely to meet you, Mina,” Kingston said, clasping her hand in his.
“The pleasure is all mine,” Mina replied with a smile. “You’re Alpha Kingston of the Sablemane Pack, correct?”
“That’s right,” he confirmed. He looked between the two of us. “You ladies look like you have a lot of catching up to do. Ayla, why don’t you and your cousin head back downstairs. You can spend some time together. I’ll make sure our bags made it to the room.”
“You sure?” I asked.
“Of course.” He leaned in and kissed me on the cheek. “You two have fun.”
I smiled as he walked away. Turning back to Mina, I pulled her into another embrace.
“I’m so happy to see you,” I said.

1 “Me too,” she said. “Let’s head downstairs. We have so much to talk about.”
We made our way back down to the main lobby. There were several lounges and banquet halls where people were lingering. As well as a bar and restaurant. We decided to grab some drinks and find a secluded spot in one of the lounges, getting comfortable on one of the built–in leather couches.
“So, tell me everything,” I started. “Who is this mate of yours? Where did you meet him? When did you meet him?”
“Ayla,” she said a bit nervously, “there’s something I should tell you first.”
Lgrabbed her hand. “What is it, Mina? You can tell me anything.”
She sighed. “I know why you’re here with Alpha Kingston,” she said softly, looking around the room to ensure no one was listening. “I know about Theo.”
