Chapter Three
Alpha Blake
It's been
a hell of a couple of weeks. After noticing some of the accounts weren't adding up, I sent an email tc to be mated to a human, even though our worlds are pretty separate. We don’t go around announci just anyone.
I was surprised when within twenty—
four hours, Isaac's firm had already located the problem and tracked down the source. Isaac had son accountants working for him. After tracking down the person who had stolen almost a million dollar: had uncovered the culprit. I wanted all of our finances reviewed. It's one thing to steal from me, but I I was relieved when my cell phone rang and Isaac's name popped up on the screen. When we last sp have other humans in my pack.
“Blake Orion,” I answered.
“Hey Blake, it's Isaac.” He greeted.
“Isaac, I hope you are calling with good news,” I said.

“My employee has made
some requests.” He said and I rolled my eyes. Of course, they would make demands, even though I o a sizeable bonus. Plus all accommodations will be
paid.
"And what are these demands?” questioned.
"A house to live in away from the pack house. Their own office, weekends, and all requested time off by the end of the summer.” He explained. I was more surprised by the lack of demands themself. “How big does the house have to be?” I asked, knowing already where I would house him.
“They have a teenage son, so at least two bedrooms,” Isaac answered.
“No wife?”
“It's just the two of them. School is almost done for the year. After they will
relocate for the summer until the next school year starts.” That sounded reasonable. I wouldn't want to pull my son out of school with just a couple of weeks left.
“Il agree to those terms.”
“Good to hear. I'll send over the
exact date of their arrival after I give them the good news. And Blake, if you have any issues, please t will handle the
situation.”
“Will do, thanks again,” I said before ending the call. I wonder what issues he was referring to.
“Dad, who was that?” My son, Aspen asked, walking into my

office. He was the spitting image of me but with his late mother's, my fated
mate's eyes. It reminds me, I always have a piece of her.
"I finished my exam. I have a few hours until the next one.” He shrugged, taking a seat.
“We will be having a couple of humans as our guests for the summer. The forensic accountant and h told him.
"Still worried there's another thief among the companies?”

“I think I'm the parent here. Shouldn't I be worried about you?”
I gave him a pointed look and he chuckled.
“I would be less worried if you didn’t work so much. You need
to get a hobby outside the pack businesses. Once I take over you will have a lot of free time on your "Oh, is that how it is? Just going to throw your old man out on his ass?”
“I would feel better if you had a woman to keep you company.” He grinned.
“Fuck off. Don't you have an exam to study for?” I grumbled, looking back at my paperwork. “Maybe, but you should think about
what I said. You could have a second chance out there. I just don’t want to see you a lonely old man. "Go study before I put you to work,” I grumbled.
"Yes, Alpha, sir,” he saluted me, before leaving my office. He left me shaking my head at his antics. "He's right you know, it may be worth it to visit other packs to see if
we do have a second chance,” Gunner, my wolf, chimed in.
“I don’t know. I
feel like I'd be cheating on Mia. She died giving us Aspen and then I just move on to someone else.” "She would want us to be happy. She understood the risk of her bringing our son into the world and “Because she lied to me about those risks, until it was too late.

I love Aspen but I never would have allowed her to risk
her life like that. We could have adopted.” I exclaimed. He whimpered while retreating and my stomach twisted painfully with guilty. He too lost his mate that day. My son's birth was the
happiest and saddest day of my life. And second chance or not, no one can replace Mia.
