A/N: Who wants an extra update?
Since it's the Memorial Day holiday here I've had a little extra time to write, so here's an extra update for everyone! I hope you enjoy it!
See ya tomorrow for our regular Tuesday update too! :-]

WAYO'S POV
When I saw mom standing there holding her arms open for me, I almost broke down crying. I didn't even realize how much I'd missed her until that exact moment. I wonder if it's like this for all kids when they leave home for the first time.
Still hugging her, I hear her say, "Montry, Red, Jay, Zee, Chaang. Enough with the nonsense. Up up up! Come here and give me a hug too."
Trust me, I didn't get my low tolerance for formality from my dad. He revels in it. It's mom who gets irritated by it. Especially when it's shown by those she considers family. And how could my pack not be counted as family? After all they were just small pups when they came to live with us and mom raised them just like she raised me.
Seconds later, we're both engulfed by their group hug, but I can faintly hear the rumbling sounds of low growls coming from her pack in response.
"Shut it!" She yells out from inside our circle. "One more growl at my sons from any of you and you'll be replaced before you can blink."
Thankfully, the noises cease immediately. Mom must have used this pack before because they seem to know she doesn't mess around. When she gives you a warning the consequences are not idle threats, they are promises she will follow through on if forced too.
Pulling back from the hug and wanting to break the tension, I explain, "Mommy, Red and I made dinner for everyone. If you're hungry, we can eat. Everything is ready."
"You and Red cooked for us? Oh my gosh, look how grown up my boys have become." She jokes pinching both our cheeks. At least I'm not the only one who has to suffer. "Yes, I'm starving. Let's go."
Turning back to her pack, she informs them, "Take our things to the..." She pauses and looks at me as I point to the south wing. "The south wing. Then return down here for introductions and dinner."
They quickly disperse, doing as she instructs, while we walk into the dining room. Mom spends the next 10 minutes gushing over the food and the table settings and well everything, making us all feel loved and that our efforts are appreciated. And while I know she means what she's saying I also know she's giving her pack time to come back down to join us, so they won't feel left out.

ACHARA'S POV
Introductions are over and now we're sitting down to dinner together. Refusing to sit at the opposite end of this stupidly long dining table from my son, we compromised, and both sat in the middle across from each other with the packs spread around us on each end.
The meal is lovely, and the boys all take turns getting me caught up on what's been happening in their lives and at school. It's too bad Ming isn't here with us right now, I love to laugh at his usually snarky input. But Yo explained about the Moon and Star Competition he got selected to participate in at school and I couldn't be prouder if he was my son too. He also told us Ming would probably be home around 10:30pm, so we should get too see him tonight before we head up to bed.
After dinner, Yo and I take a long walk around the garden and yard to discuss more private matters out of hearing of the others.
"So, he finally found him." I remark, astonished.
