The Alpha's Unwanted Luna (by Miss L) novel Chapter 281

Chapter 281

30 – Greta

The little girl clung to Finn as tightly as a koala to a tree branch, her tiny arms wrapped firmly around his neck. She nestled her face just beneath his chin, managing to keep her gaze fixed on me without breaking their close contact. Although her posture was shy and reserved, the expression in her eyes was anything but timid—it carried a strong, almost possessive edge. My inner wolf stirred uneasily, a low growl rumbling in my mind, but I quickly reminded myself that this child had endured so much and posed no threat. Still, the fact that she knew my name caught my attention. That was intriguing.

“Oh my gosh! I’m so thrilled to see all of you!” Kennedy exclaimed, barely able to contain her excitement. “Are you hungry? Samuel mentioned you hunted before leaving your camp. Or maybe you’re tired? We’re going to set you up right here with us tonight.”

“I’m hungry!” piped up the youngest boy, and the room erupted in laughter.

“Gabriel, you’re always hungry,” teased the oldest girl with a playful grin.

“Well, Gabriel, you’re in luck. I just stocked the fridge,” Kennedy said with a giggle, rubbing her stomach. “I’m always hungry, too. Let’s grab a snack, then you can all get cleaned up and tucked into bed. Sound good?” She extended her hand to Gabriel, who glanced at the two older kids for reassurance before gently taking it. “Come on. You all need to eat and shower—the forest tends to make you pretty grimy.”

“Hey!” Seth protested, mock offended.

“I’m sure your family doesn’t mind, but after a full day of shifting, playing in the forest with these kids, and hunting, you all smell pretty awful!” Kennedy laughed again, and we all joined in as she led us toward the kitchen.

“Okay, so we know Gabriel’s name,” I said, pointing to the little boy whose light brown hair stuck up in every direction. His green eyes darted around the room, absorbing every detail. “And we know Trinity. What about you two? Tell us your names.”
