Dead Luna – Chapter 67

Amelia’s POV

I’m disappointed that Ambrosia hasn’t woken up for the entire day. It puts me an entire day and a half behind schedule, for one thing. And I missed her sassy attitude and snarky remarks.

Plus it was rather boring. I’m used to always being busy doing something. This pack had no real use for my talents outside of matching the few amenable pack members with their mates. They didn’t have any gardens for me to stroll around. Their rec center was ill equipped, mainly set up for teenagers with air hockey, pinball machines, and play consoles. They had a small library, but I didn’t see anything there that I hadn’t read that seemed interesting to me, after a quick glance through a couple volumes.

. I don’t recall ever seeing Luna Veronica or Luna Francine ever looking anything but elegant. Even Leo’s mom Deirdre, as the Gamma female of the pack, always had an air of respectability and confidence about her. Leo had mentioned more than once that I would need to work on my image before he took over as Winter Moon’s Gamma. I thought he was being a bit of a jerk at the time, but perhaps he had actually meant well. Especially considering that my background at the time seemed less than ideal. Having a mate who was a bit of a hot mess didn’t inspire confidence that he would take good care of the packs precious Luna.

whatever stylist I’m paired up with will be accommodating to my own tastes, rather than dictatorial like Luna Veronica had been. I may need a little

I was hardly an expert, but with my added Lycan strength and speed, the little bit I could recall was helping me along. Glen was still larger and quicker, with far more years of training than I’d been alive, but I could tell he was pleased with my progress.

At first I was disappointed that I would have to share one fry, until I saw the size of the burgers and the large fry. Despite my larger appetite lately, this burger was filing as well as one of the tastiest burgers I’ve had in my life, and the large fry was more than plenty to share.
