Chapter 30: The Chat

RORY POV

My eyes got big, and I leaned forward.

"What do you mean? What is a mate?" I asked excitedly.

"Every alpha wolf has a mate," my mom replied. My eyes got big. So she knew Oliver was the alpha.

"Why do you think Oliver is an alpha?"

"Because he is," my mom scoffed.

"Really?" I asked slowly.

"He gives off a major alpha scent," my mom explained. "He will have a mate. All alphas have mates. Maybe you're his mate," she added, grinning.

"Like alpha wolves in the wild…interesting."

"Yes," my mom said, sipping her coffee. "Anyway, I wonder if the same thing that killed your father is the same thing that broke into our sanctuary. The wolves that came back that day when your father and the others were attacked said the being showed up as a light first." My mom was already changing the subject. I decided to let it slide.

"Really?" I asked.
