Friday morning was a busy day at Robertson's Sporting Goods Store; it was full of anxious fathers and their youngsters checking the list Frank had emailed against what they needed to buy: family size tent, sleeping bag, hiking boots, swimsuit, towel, shorts, t-shirt, sweatshirt, sweatpants, backpack with supplies for the session.
It was hard to tell who was more anxious and excited, the fathers or the youngsters. The youngsters were excited because it was an overnight training session and they were going to be away from home, some for the first time. The men were excited for some male bonding time and had their own mental checklist: alcohol, cigars and money, because when the men got together, Poker topped their agenda, specifically Texas Hold-Em. They knew while the youngsters were training they would be busy, but when the youngsters went to bed, drinking and socializing would commence without their mates to monitor them and it was time to let off some steam.
At noon, Alpha and Madame Alpha Rossi rang the doorbell of the Miller household as the sounds of laughter and girls squealing could be heard from inside the home. The Rossi's looked at each other and laughed, as the door was opened by Todd who welcomed his new Alpha's into the home. Todd brought Holly forward for a formal introduction and she thanked the Alpha's for the stocked refrigerator and cabinets, saying it was completely unexpected but extremely welcome. Todd's mother and father, Nana Ellen and Papa Mike were the next to be formally introduced. As each adult was welcomed and scented by the Alpha's they felt the Alpha Bond grow, like tiny gossamer threads linking them to each other.
The house had gotten eerily quiet and the Alpha's looked up to the second floor landing and saw ten beautiful girls staring down at them. The first thing the Alpha's noticed was their eyes, grey eyes so light in color they appeared silver. They had jet black hair pulled back into ponytails, and it was so dark it appeared to have blue highlights as the sun hit it from the upper foyer window and they were so fair it looked like they hadn't been in the sunlight for years. They were all dressed alike, beige shorts with white t-shirts with 'Miller' written across the left chest pocket. The Alpha's smiled at the girls hoping to ease the anxiety evident in their eyes.
Todd had noticed where the Alpha's were looking and upon seeing his daughters, he smiled and said, "Millers, step forward." The girls came down the stairs and lined up according to age, waiting on their father to introduce them to their new Alpha's.
"Alpha Rossi, Madame Alpha Rossi I would like to introduce you to my daughters Brianna, Morgan, Caitlin, Erin, Kelly, Aislin, Fallon, Shannon, Fiona and Maeve," said Todd with pride in his voice. As each name was announced, each girl stepped forward with her head bowed and let the Alpha's scent her, feeling the bond grow.
Holly asked the Alpha's to join the family in the living room to get more comfortable and refreshments were brought in and served.
"Did you find the directory on the counter? Phillip, who runs the floral shop, put it together when he and his mate Matthew moved here, they wrote everything down they felt was useful and we have expanded on their idea so you can easily navigate your way around. It contains directions and information to The Manor House, training areas, high school, shopping, restaurants and many more businesses. There is also a complete list of Pack members including names, position, addresses, and phone numbers. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to call anyone in the Pack," said Alpha Carlo.
"Tomorrow night you will be formally introduced at the Full Moon Ceremony," said Alpha Carlo. "Up until that time, I would like for you to remain at your home and get settled, as we would like to make your introduction a surprise. Todd, in the discussions we had, I don't believe you mentioned how old your daughters were, just that they were teenagers."
Holly replied, "Brianna and Morgan are 17, Caitlin and Erin are 16, Kelly and Aislin are 15, Fallon and Shannon are 14, and Fiona and Maeve are 13. This will be Kelly and Aislin's first shift. In our old Pack, the youngsters that hadn't shifted were excluded from the ceremony and were sequestered, so this will be new to them."
"We believe all members should be included in the ceremony, no matter how young they are. There are activities for the youngsters and they do s'mores over the bonfire, have a sing-along, play games or just socialize," said Madame Gina.
"When it is time for the Pack Run, each family has their own cabin to change and shift if they want privacy and you will temporarily be assigned the guest cabin until one can be built for you. First time shifters are brought to a clearing to be surrounded by their family while they undergo their change while maintaining privacy," said Alpha Carlo with a smile to the girls.
"Girls, on Sunday you will be given a tour of your new school by Principal Richards. I know not all of you are old enough to attend high school, but I think it best if all of you take the tour. We have one of the highest rated high schools in the State of MD, and our students consistently test in the upper 10% and we expect all of you to maintain those standards," continued Alpha Carlo.
"To welcome you, we have bags for each of the girls containing t-shirts, shorts and sweatshirts with the school logo on them. From Aldo, who is head of school security, there are binders with school rules and emergency procedures. There are also gifts from local Pack businesses," said Madame Gina. "If it's okay with your parents, you are welcome to look at them now." With a nod from Todd, the girls ran out of the room to get the bags from the foyer and came right back opening them and whispering to each other over the contents.
