The Challenge | BOOK 2

3 - Reunited Friends and Family

I'm so excited for this book to get heated. I think you'll be quite shocked with what I come up. It's going to be a good book, I can already tell.

By the way, this chapter is kind of shorter than what I normally write. But don't worry. The next chapter will be longer.

Sorry for the longer time between updates.

I walked across the yard to Lila's cabin. My beast hummed with excitement. She couldn't wait to see our brothers and our sister. We had missed them. I knew they'd all probably be pissed off at the fact that I hadn't talked to them in a while.

I hoped they'd get over it pretty quickly.

I knocked on the front door before I pushed it open and walked inside. I shut the door behind me and smiled as I heard voices in the kitchen.

"No way! You're back!" Leon's voice shouted. I looked up at him and grinned as he dropped what he was holding and rushed over to me.

He engulfed me in a tight hug that made me giggle. When he pulled away, I was hugged by Cass. She squeezed the life out of me. I laughed loudly and hugged her back tightly.

"Did you bring our dumbass brother back with you? He was stupid for staying away from home for so long," Leon asked me. Cass pulled away and I nodded at him.

"Yeah, I did. Don't worry, I told him that he was dumb for staying away," I replied. They both smiled and nodded at me.

Liam had to go organise the day for the transfers. They were apparently arriving soon and Liam was not prepared whatsoever. He'd probably be busy all day.

That was what he got from staying away like he did. Part of me couldn't blame him. The other part made me wonder what kind of Alpha he'd be if he couldn't be there for the pack when it really needed him.

"Hi," I heard a grumble from behind me as I felt arms hug me. I knew it was Lucas and I laughed. It was unusual for him to be up so early.

"Shouldn't you be training?" I asked him. He scoffed at me and shook his head.

"I graduated from that. You would've too, if you were here," he hissed out bitterly as he released me from my hug. I turned around to face him and grinned. I missed the goofy male.

"You should shut up. I was away for a good reason," I told him. He rolled his eyes at me and scoffed as he trudged pass me and into the kitchen where he picked up the mug of coffee on the counter and drank from it.

"That's mine," Leon said. Lucas shook his head at him.

"Not anymore," Lucas replied as he walked away. I laughed at this as Lucas left the kitchen with the coffee mug in hand. Leon scoffed and Cass chuckled a little.

"Go see Lila. I bet she'll be over the moon to know that you're back," Leon told me. I nodded eagerly as I turned and made my way down the hallway. I knocked on Lila's bedroom door.

My beast was buzzing with excitement.

I pushed it open and watched the female look up from her chest of drawers and scowl. I smiled sheepishly.

"You're a dick! Do you know how worried I was?" She hissed out as she came towards me. Lila engulfed me in a tight hug, punching my arm at the same time. I laughed loudly and rolled my eyes.

"Drama queen, huh?" I retorted. She grumbled and hugged me tightly before pulling away.

"You're lucky I don't kill you right now," Lila told me. She smiled at me and giggled cheekily before turning away.
