Leyla's POV
I watched as Angela woke up, trying not to listen as she and her mate talked about their future. The beds were only a few feet apart, so it was harder than it seemed to pretend that I couldn't hear every single word. Still, the knowledge that we would be gaining another member in our pack and that Angela's mate really loved her touched my heart. It was always a good day when someone in our pack found someone to really love them. We never had an issue accepting someone's mate into our pack, just like we never had an issue accepting someone who was mateless into our pack. We had come together under the idea that everyone deserved a home and that people fought harder when they felt cared for and like they belonged.
Still, hearing them so happy made my heart ache a little more.
