Epilogue:

1 year later

"…and that's how the Jasper Park wolves all became one big pack," Luna concluded her story, blinking fondly at the three pups staring up at her.

"Wow…" the older male breathed in awe. He then flattened his ears in annoyance at his sister who started scratching behind her ear, like she was bored. He elbowed her. "Leah, were you even listening?"

"Of course I was listening!" the brown and gold female protested, looking offended. "And I'll prove it tonight when Seth and that bear show up in my nightmares!"

"Well I'd rather have heard that one, then the one on how our grandparents got together!" the gray and brown male that had spoken first rolled his eyes.

"Hey now, my Aunt Kate and Uncle Humphrey have a very interesting love story," Luna scolded. "Maybe next time I'll tell you on how your Aunt Hayden learned to be grateful."

"But what about the one on how your grandparents met?" Leah blinked. "You told us the one on Aunt Hayden already."

"Yes, but I think Austin needs to be told it again," Luna looked at Leah's brother mischievously.

"Thanks a lot Aussie!" Leah growled.

"Well, I'm grateful," piped up the youngest pup. "I know that if Grandmamma Kate married Papa Garth, you and my daddy wouldn't have been born, and then I wouldn't have been born!"

"Very true Marley," Luna praised. "With a mind like yours, it's no wonder your parents want you to go to Alpha School when you're older."

Another wolf appeared at the entrance of the den, panting. "Luna! There you are! Do you have any idea how long I was searching for you?"

"Oh, relax Logan. If you'd only gone to Troy, he would've told you I was in his den telling stories to Jake's pups and Marley."

Logan stomped into the cave. "Luna, Cherry and Lilly both agree that you need to stay in our den. Marley's old enough to walk there."

"We're here too," Austin muttered, feeling offended at being ignored.

Logan began to nose Luna, helping her stumble to her paws. Luna nearly fell once she was up, her belly was so heavy. Logan caught her and stayed close to her as she waddled outside. As she walked towards her and Logan's den, Logan turned to the three pups.

"Moon's almost to its highest point. Leah and Aussie, you need to get to your parents' den! It's past curfew."

The two young puppies looked at each other and raced out, trying to get to their den before their parents.

Luna watched them, giggling fondly.

Logan trotted to catch up to her. "Considering their parents, I don't know where they get that rebellious streak!"

"Well, maybe it skips a generation?" Luna tilted her head. She felt something in her stomach, but assumed it was the pups kicking again. Thinking of hers, she sighed dreamily. "Can you imagine we're next to have that?"

"I can and it scares me. You're twice as rebellious as them, so I can only imagine our pups!" Logan teased.

Luna giggled again, but it faded to a whimper.

"Hey, I was only teasing," Logan said, feeling bad now. "I'm going to love our pups whether they're shy like your mother or smarter than me, like your brother (and even his pup mind you)!"

"No, I agree about the rebel thing, it's just…" Luna halted and laid down. "Er…could you fetch my mother and aunt?"

"Your mother and—oh!" Logan tensed and his eyes were like an owl's. "Oh! You mean—now?"

Luna nodded. Her head was on her paws.

"Oh my—!" Logan skidded around, running around his mate. "Can you make it back to your brother's den?"

Luna tried to get to her paws and was stumbling to go back to the cave she had come from, a few fireflies lighting the den inside. "And get Cherry too!" she called as Logan ran off. "I don't know how she'll feel about Marley being here for this."

Logan rounded up the three females as quickly as he could. Cherry gave Luna some quick words of congratulations before taking Marley to sleep in Logan and Luna's den for the night.

Logan was pacing outside the den when Troy and Garth trotted up. Garth went inside, no questions asked. Troy had been banished from his own den and sat next to Logan, looking like guard dogs on either side of the den entrance.

"Kate thinks there will be two," Troy said, trying to ease the tense waiting. "And Lilly seems to think they'll both be male. Any name ideas?"

"Well I know Luna wants a male named Tony."

"And the other?"

Logan felt suddenly embarrassed. But Luna would've wanted Troy to know the names first anyway, right? "…I was really in favor for the name, Luke."

The end for The Successors: Garth and Lilly! If you want more Troy, Luna, Logan, and Cheyenne, they'll be in the sequel: The Successors: Kate and Humphrey.

Merry Christmas to my beloved fans! I appreciate you guys and hope you have happy holidays!
