Pregnant With Alpha’s Genius Twins – Chapter 234

We troupe out of the cabin about an hour later, headed west through the pines towards where we sense we last made camp. I look over my shoulder one last time at the run-down little cabin sitting alone in the woods, mouthing a little thank-you to it. It’s truly given us so much – fed and protected us when we really needed us. The sunlight gleams prettily off the roof of the little house for a moment, as if in reply – a little wink from the wise woman of the woods, telling me it was her pleasure.

I turn back to my family, where a little argument is breaking out. Ian begs Victor to let him and Alvin turn into wolves and run the distance to our camp, but Victor tells them no, not this time.

“It’s too dangerous to let you wild things out on your own,” Victor says as we step into the embrace of the trees. “And I don’t want to change. I want to walk with your mom.” He takes my hand and gives me a little smile.

Victor and I follow our children through the final stretch of woods, finally breaking into the little clearing where we last set up camp. I look fondly at our tent, which is standing just as we left it, remembering how upset I had been when I had last gone to sleep in it. How fast things change here in the woods.
