Remy and Lennox werewolves who were destined to be alphas because their mom was anAngel Mate, a perfect mate for a wolf. Their three sisters wereAngels, and the two brothers were planning to head out to starttheir own packs elsewhere, because there were too many alphas inAllen, Kentucky and it made everyone twitchy.
“Well, Remy already leftafter the February full moon, but Lennox will leave at some pointtoo,” he said.
“I’m surprised Lennoxdidn’t leave with Remy,” Logan said, spearing a wedge ofpancakes.
“Lennox said they talkedabout it, but he wasn’t feeling the pull to leave and the chafeagainst Jason’s alphaship like Remy was, so he didn’t feel the needto leave yet. Plus, they’re both alphas, so it wasn’t like Remywould be alpha and Lennox would be his second if they start a newpack together, they both need their own pack. At any rate, I kindof don’t count them among the unmated males since one is gone andone is planning to take off.” There were other unmated males in thepack, but Kash wasn’t close with them. His friend group was small,and they were expected to lead the pack when the current generationof leaders were ready to retire and step down, which he didn’tthink would happen for a long while.
He and his parents talked overbreakfast, and when he’d helped his mom with the dishes, she said,“I need you to go to Grandma and Grandpa’s at somepoint.”
“Sure, is everythingokay?” His maternal grandparents lived in the Fae Realm. Hisparents had a home next to theirs and spent time in that realm forlong weekends and vacations.
“Yeah, Grandpa needs yourassistance with a greenhouse he’s building. He’s planning to usemetal to build the structure and so your power will be veryhandy.”
“Sounds good,” he said. Heloved helping out his grandparents and had assisted with a fewthings over the years at their home. With his fairy power, he couldeasily manipulate whatever metal items they had to whateverspecifications needed.
“You’re a sweetheart,” shesaid. “Thanks for helping with the dishes. Remember to be thatsweet when you find your truemate. Don’t leave her to do the disheson her own.” She gave a side-glance at Logan, who growled softly atthe teasing.
“I’ll help with the dishes,woman.”
The way his dad saiddishes made Kash thinkhe didn’t really mean dishes. “That’s my cue. I’ll head to the FaeRealm from here.”
“Be careful,” his momcautioned.
“Always.”
He said goodbye, grabbedhis coat from the hall closet, and headed to the backyard, wherehis mom had a fairy garden with a sprite named Darlie and herlittle sprite family that watched over things. Near the garden,which was blanketed with frost from the chilly March morning, was atree that had a permanent fairy circle, which allowed them toportal between the realms.
He stepped into the circleof rocks in front of the tree and laid his hands on the trunk,calling out the spell to open a portal, focusing on hisgrandparents’ home. In minutes he was through the portal andwalking into the warm home, which always smelled like freshly bakedcinnamon rolls.
“Well,well, well,” his Grandpa Brokk said, looking up from an easy chairin front of the fireplace. “Look what thefellbeast dragged in.How are ya, kiddo?”
“Oh Kash, you’re here! Ihad an inkling you’d come this morning, so I made your favoritecinnamon rolls,” Grandma Rhoswen said, smiling at him from thekitchen. “Jenna said yesterday on our portal-call that she wasgoing to ask you to come help out but didn’t know when you’d beavailable.”
“I’m working tomorrow, sotoday is perfect,” Kash said. Even though he was stuffed from theblueberry pancakes, he couldn’t resist the delicious cinnamon rollsthat called to him from the counter, and snagged one.
“Then let’s get to it,”Grandpa Brokk said.
“Happy to help,” he said,his voice muffled by the cinnamon goodness and meltedicing.
Following his grandpaoutside, he got to work, using his power over metal to bend variousrods and beams to the shapes needed to frame up a large greenhouse.It took several hours to complete the metal work, and then hehelped cover it in thick plastic sheeting, adding vents to the topsand sides, and doors on both ends. While they ate lunch around thelarge kitchen table, he told them about his loneliness as hisclosest friends all found their truemates.
“So spell for her,” hisgrandma said.
Kash stared at his grandma, hissandwich halfway to his mouth. “I hadn’t thought ofthat.”
“Why not?” his grandpaasked. “You’re certainly old enough and you’re feeling the longingto find your truemate and start a family. Seems like the perfecttime to me.”
He toyed with the sandwich and set itdown. “I’ve always worried that my truemate wouldn’t be happy I’mhalf wolf, half fairy.”
“Why?” his grandmaasked.
“Because if she’s a wolf,what if she doesn’t like that I can’t shift? And if she’s a fairy,what if she’s not happy I’m half wolf?”
His grandma covered hishand with her own. “She’ll love you because you’re truemates. Shewon’t care that you can’t shift or that you have a wolf hanging outin your subconscious. That’s the amazing thing abouttruemates.”
He felt better, hearing the hopefulwords from his grandma and seeing the agreeing nod from hisgrandpa. “Then I think I’ll do it. During the April fullmoon.”
“Why wait?” his grandpaasked.
