Married My Ex’s Alpha Uncle

Silver's POV

I had gone through half the stack of papers, and it was nearing nightfall. My mind was spinning from all the complaints this pack had and I wasn't even sure where to begin with it all. They complained about the lack of education in the pack's school system and how the children weren't being taught the right things. They complained about the meal planning and the lack of choices each day. Women want to start training as warriors, finding it unfair that only men get to be gammas, and I had to agree with them on that. Why aren't more women training to be gammas? They could fight just as much as any man. They also wanted their children to start training at young ages for when they were older and decide to join the Gamma warriors. They also want more sports options for both women and children.

The local park has been trashed by rogues and has been deemed unsafe to visit; not enough housing, forcing women and children to live in the packhouse. Women want to open boutiques and salons but not enough space or funding. A couple of packmates wish to get married and would like the Luna to prepare the ceremony.

Those were only a few things that I had read while going through each paper. At some point, I took out a notebook and a planner and jotted down some notes about how I could fix certain things and improve stuff around the pack. I started to make a daily schedule for myself, wanting to talk to each packmate one-on-one and get to know them and their complaints personally before I take real action.

I logged into the computer for the first time, and I was surprised that the passwords were already saved on the files so I could tap into the pack budget and find out exactly how much I could spend on these projects.

I called the couples that wanted marriage and found out when they expect to get married, and I made a plan to meet with them at some point next week so we can start seriously planning the weddings.

I created some flyers inquiring about some new teachers at the local school and created a park cleanup volunteer signup list. I scheduled a time to get the volunteers together and I planned to help them clean the park as well.

I created a whole new meal menu, and I sent them to Mariah's email letting her know that I will start creating new menus for her to work with each week.

At some point during the night, I fell asleep at my desk. I barely made a dent in the tasks that I needed to do, but I made a bit of progress and was able to speak with some of the packmates over the phone and get some scheduling done.

My eyes could hardly stay open, and I wasn't even sure what time it was.

I was awoken only for a moment when I felt a strong pair of arms wrap around my body and then the warmth and scent of Elliot enveloped my nostrils. I sighed contently as I rested my head on his chest, allowing his warmth to wrap around me and soothe me back to sleep.

I don't even know how we got home or how he managed to get me there without waking me. I woke up early the next morning, still feeling groggy as if I hadn't gotten enough sleep. Elliot was getting dressed and his shirt was off. He wore a pair of sweatpants only and my mouth nearly watered at the sight of him.

How was it possible for someone to look that good?

He must have felt me staring at him because he turned, and his eyes found mine. A smirk played on his lips.

"Good morning," he said in a deep and almost sultry tone.

I swallowed.

"Good morning," I repeated. "Did you sleep well?"

"I did," he answered. "Did you?"

I nodded my head once, my eyes wandering over his abs and gazing down at his happy trail that disappeared in the waistline of his sweatpants. I could almost see the outline of his cock and my heart skipped a beat in my chest.

He cleared his throat and my eyes shot back to his face, mortified that he caught me checking him out This time, he was grinning, and his brows pinched together.

"Are you alright? You seem a bit flustered."

I knew my face was probably beet red; I could feel the heat in my cheeks.

"I guess I'm still a little tired," I admitted, which wasn't a complete lie.

He nodded thoughtfully like he understood.

"I was honestly surprised you were still at the paekhouse last night. I was about to leave when Beta Leo mentioned you hadn't come out of the office since he brought you there.Dthought there was no way you'd still be there, but I went to check anyway. Imagine my surprise when I see you sleeping at your desk."
