#Chapter 87 The Grand Ole Grandfather

Aurora

When the panic subsides, Jaxson and I move slowly, trying to keep the pups quiet enough to in-spect the living room first. Snowflake is startled and froze upright, worried as she looks out the front window. I follow her gaze, the morning simple and bright and warm as it pours into our small, quaint hut.

Jaxson clings to one pup, while I juggle the other two. He gives me a daring look of caution.

Stay close but stay behind me.

I give him an approving nod, not stupid enough to face anything when I’ve got a perfectly capable, super strong Alpha with me. He and I both leave the hut and make our way to the beach, turning in every direction to see everything seems rather calm outside, like nothing happened at all. Every-thing except for a tall stack of black smoke in the distance, trailing into the sky.
