CONNOR
It was hard to stay angry at Evan – even when he behaved at his worst, and even when he c**k-blocked me and his mother.
The problem was his face. He had such a sweet and cute look, you just couldn’t stay mad at him, not even when you were in the right.
I looked down at my family: despite it being late morning, it was the day of the Christmas Gala – which started the pack’s festivities. For the next few days, there’d be no work except for what was strictly necessary, which, in our unfortunate situation, was high-level military patrolling. This was the reason Ev and Lily were still sound asleep in bed, he all cuddled up against his mom, as he’d been ever since she’d gone to pick him up after he’d woken up crying, and I was up: unfortunately, the job of the Alpha didn’t know days
