Welcome Home Mate
Chapter 83

LEX

THREE DAYS LATER

The last three days were long and hard. I didn't even see much of Roxie since we returned from Alpha Trevor's pack.

I have mainly been in the office, dealing with all the information from Alpha Trevor's pack.

Roxie has been helping the new members settle and has even trained a few members.

Blaze grunts in my head, but I ignore him. I know he wants me to see Roxie, but I need to ensure everything is ready for all the Elders to look at when they come here. We were going to box it all up, but we made copies just in case someone started a war or something.

My mind wandered to when we arrived back from the pack grounds.

All the new pack members found it strange at first. They stayed within the pack house and slept in the grand hall. We had all the old pack members help and even made them feel like part of the pack.

We lost many pack members due to the attack that Alpha Trevor sent our way, and many lost so much. But as a pack, we are growing and trying to make it work.

Old pack members carried on training in the mornings while the new members got to grips with the new rules. I didn't place many rules for them as I knew it would take time.

I stare out my office window as I watch all pack members go to the training ground.

When we returned from the pack, I announced that new members were joining. Many of Alpha Trevor's pack stayed, but since we had little room, Alpha Dean and Alpha Gareth each took a few members.

My father and Elder Issac returned with all of Alpha Trevor's information the following day. It took us this long to go through it all.

My mind was swirling with concerns.

I had to notify many alphas and tell them, even scan through all the information we found, for them to believe me. Many have contacted me and told us that the people who were spies all had someone held against their will; even though many were killed, they had no idea. Alpha Trevor gave them all false hope.

Many spies have been sent to cells and are still waiting for sentencing. Many have gone rogue, but some were sent to death. Well, that was what Elder Issac told me about the Elder that was in with Alpha Trevor. The pack's leader wanted his head; by all accounts, that's what he got.

I let a sigh slip through.

"Am I boring you?" asked my father, which made me turn around and look at him.

I frowned.

"I need a break," I said. "I haven't seen Roxie since we came back. We both have been busy with the new pack members and all this." Pointing to the information scattered around the office.

My father nodded but stared at me for a moment. "Has she been staying in your room?" he asked.

I stared at him.

I know she has been, but she has been asleep every time I have been there and always left before I wake up. She was training with the pack members.

I needed her, and I needed to see her.

My father cleared his throat, which made me look at him. He gave me a knowing look. "I have done some thinking, well me and Tim have," he said. "We think that you and Roxie should move into their house." I stared at him, slightly confused.

"Why would that be better for us?" I asked. "We are in the same room, but we keep missing each other."

My father looked at me and smirked.

"You keep missing each other, but you haven't marked and mated her yet," he said. "I know what it is like as an alpha to be without your mate at times when the pack takes over. It makes you go insane."

I stared at him, but my father moved from his chair that he was sitting on and walked over to me. He placed his hand on my shoulder and looked at me. "Tim and I will sort the rest of this out," he said, looking over at the table at the documents we were going through. "I'm still the alpha of this pack."

I nodded.

My father looked at me and sighed. "Lex," he said. "To be an alpha, you need your Luna with you. You need Roxie."

To right, I thought as I agreed with him.

Blaze moved closer and looked through my eyes, looking at my father. "Papa Wolf knows what we need," he murmured. "I want mate, and I know you want her too." I sighed.

"Can I leave now?" I asked.

My father nodded.

"Tim has told her to meet him at the house," he said, smirking. "But he won't be there; you will be there instead."

I could feel the excitement go through my body.

Seeing Roxie and actually getting to speak to her was making it all worth more.

I need to do something for her.

I looked at my father and frowned.

My father chuckled.

"What's the face for?" he asked.

"I want to do something for her," I said. "We haven't exactly had a date. I want to make it more of a date. I can tell her all about moving into the house and more."

My father stared at me, and a grin crept onto his l!ps. "I have an idea," he muttered. "Mind link Jason to keep Roxie busy, and you make your way to the house. Tim will help you. I hope we have enough time to pull something off."

I nodded.

My father went blank while I opened a mind link to Jason. "Hey dude," I called out. "Can you do me a favor for the afternoon?"

"Hey," he said. "What do you have in mind?"

"Well, I need you to spend some time with your sister," I said.

I could hear a groan slip through the mind link, making me smile.

"Dude, I didn't need to know that," he said.

"It's not like that," I said. "I want to set a date, as we haven't seen each other since we returned from Alpha Trevor's pack. We have both been busy with the new pack members. All I need from you is to keep Roxie busy for the afternoon till I am ready. I will mind link when I am, and you can bring her to the house."

There was silence, but a low sigh slipped through. "I guess," he said. "I know I need to talk to Roxie, she had wanted to talk to me before you went there, but since you all came back, she has been busy."

"Well," I said. "You need to open up to her, and you never know; she may open up to you about things too."

I felt a little jealous as he was spending time with her, but I needed his help, but I also knew he needed to talk to her.

Jason didn't tell me what happened to Sofia and him, but I heard he is on a s*x ban until she is ready; she even moved into a room with one of the omegas while he stayed at the pack house. He avoided me for the first time; he saw me. We briefly talked when I saw him in the kitchen the next day.

It was hard to hear what he had to say, but I don't blame Sofia. Jason was a manwhore back then; he never thought about the consequences of his actions; she just needed some space.

"I will go to the training ground and see her now," he said, pulling me from my thoughts.

"Thanks, dude," I said, closing the mind link down.

I looked back at my father, who was staring at me.

"Is he okay to talk to Roxie?" he asked.

I nodded.

"That's good," he said. "Tim was worried he was avoiding her, as he wouldn't talk to her."

I didn't say anything.

"What about Tim?" I asked. "Is he okay with me coming over?"

My father looked at me and smiled. "He knows and knows what to do," he said.

I smiled.

I let out a sigh, knowing I was leaving the office for the first time in three days, which was something to look forward to, and knowing I would be seeing Roxie was making it even more thrilling.

I said goodbye to my father, but he called out before I left and had my hand on the door handle. "Mark and mate her, Lex," he said.

I looked at him and smirked.

"I want some grandchildren," he said. "Tim and I want little ones to spend time with."

I laughed and opened the door.

I walked out of the office and headed out of the pack house.

I walked in the direction of Roxie and Tim's home. Well, technically, it will be Roxie and mine for the time being.

Having a home away from the pack house will benefit us. Besides, the house is big enough for loads of children.

I could feel Blaze move closer as I walked.

"I want mate," he murmured.

"I know," I said and looked back at him. "We will have mate tonight," I said. "Let's come up with a date and see what happens."

Blaze nodded with his tongue hanging out.

I knew what he was thinking, but I needed to keep a clear head as I couldn't walk around with a hard-on.

Tim's house came into view, and Tim was outside with Keith.

Both of them looked at me and smiled.

As I came closer, Tim spoke. "Keith is picking up some bits," he said with a smile. "When he returns, we will set a mood in the house and cook some food for you both."

I nodded, liking the idea.

"What do we do when Keith has gone?" I asked, feeling slightly confused.

Tim smiled.

"We can discuss what you can tell Roxie about making this home yours," he said.

I stared at him.

"How do you feel about that?" I asked.

Tim looked at me for a few moments but let out a sigh. "Roxie's right before she went to stay with you," he said. "I need to move forward, and moving into the pack house will be the new forward for me. Your father and I are single men; we must learn to be on our own."

I smiled.

"I always kept Roxie as my little girl," he said, looking at me with a smirk. "I'm handing the touch to you now, and all I can say is good luck."

"I second that," Keith said as he climbed into his truck.

I stared at Tim, who was now chuckling.

I didn't know whether to be excited or slightly worried by that statement.
