Chapter 44

Five months laterVictoria's POV

"I found my mate, guys!"

We all gasped in delight as Ty finally made his surprise announcement. For weeks, he had been teasing us about this surprise, but he always brushed off our inquiries.

"Called it! Pay up, bro." Our attention shifted to Caleb, and Lincoln mumbled something under his breath, reluctantly handing over a twenty.

"You guys bet on me?" Ty laughed on the big TV screen.

"What else could it be, though? I'm happy for you, man! Congrats," Caleb beamed.

Earlier that morning, Ty had texted Emma, asking her to gather everyone for the announcement. Lincoln had set up a webcam so he could join us virtually on the TV in the living room.

We offered our congratulations to Ty, and I had to admit, he looked much happier than when he left here.

"So when do I meet my new sister?" Emma clapped her hands excitedly, a glint in her eyes.

"Right now." A female voice announced, and our vision was met with a beautiful blonde woman. Her eyes were bright green, and she had a heart-shaped face. The smile on Ty's face as she sat beside him was heartwarming.

"Oh my gosh, you're so beautiful," Ashley cooed, her eyes welling up with tears. Her hormones were all over the place these days.

"And you're so pregnant! Oh my gosh, Ty, you have to make me meet them in person," she gushed, shaking Ty's shoulder.

We all laughed as Ty nervously nodded. They looked adorable together, and I already liked her.

"What's your name?" I finally asked.

"Oh dear, where are my manners? I'm Laura McKenzie."

"As in the daughter of Liam McKenzie?" Luka asked in awe, and everyone's faces mirrored his. I was left confused.

"That's me," she said shyly, tucking a piece of hair behind her ear.

"Um, who's that?" I asked Luka softly.

"He's the Alpha of the biggest pack in England, that's who," he sounded excited as he turned his attention back to the screen."

Ty, does this mean—"

"Yep," Ty grinned. "I'll be an Alpha again since Laura here is Alpha Liam's only heir."

We erupted in another round of cheers and congratulations. Ty would be the new Alpha of the biggest pack in England. I also noticed that Laura had an accent.

"That leads me to my next question." We all settled down as Ty spoke. "Alpha Liam was exhilarated when I found Laura, and he was even more pleased to hear that I was Alpha for a while back home. So, he's retiring next week, and—"

"Of course, we'll be there!" Chris cut him off as he jumped from his seat. "Both my sons are going to be Alphas!"

"That's lovely!" Laura exclaimed. "That means I'll meet you guys soon. You all seem like wonderful people."

"The best," Ty beamed. "I know you'll have to get back, so you'll only stay two nights. Liam offered to send you guys the jet if you agreed."

We all got excited at this. Ty was taking over as Alpha, and we'd all be there to celebrate with them.

"We're going to London then!"

The city was beautiful. The air was cool, and a light patter of rain fell on the windows of the SUV.
