Chapter 172: My Birthday Is Coming Soon

Chapter 172: My Birthday Is Coming Soon
Sophia's POV
I gasped in shock. "What?!"
Make me the leader of the wolf pack? Was Will joking?
"Dad, this..."
Will encouraged me. "Sophia, I know you're still a student, and suddenly taking over pack affairs might put a lot of pressure on you..."
"No, that's not it, Dad."
I shook my head.
"But I've only just adapted to being an alpha. I'm afraid my abilities aren't enough, and I might disappoint you."
Will interrupted me. "Sophia, no, you shouldn't belittle yourself. In my eyes, you're more suited than anyone to lead the pack, because you have a heart that loves peace. I believe the people will like you."
Looking at Will's sincere eyes, a warm current rose in my heart, but I still couldn't quite believe it.
"Really..."
"Of course!" A male voice rang out.
I turned around to see the four alphas walking in.
Logan leaned against the doorframe.
"Sophia, I told you before, you're suited to be a pack leader."
Kieran nodded too. "If you're worried about not being able to handle it in the short term, Fabian and I can help you."
Fabian asked, "So, what do you have to hesitate about now?"
With the support of the four alphas, I felt a force rising from the bottom of my heart.
I looked solemnly at Will. "Okay, I'm willing."
Soon, Will held a succession ceremony for me, and I officially became the leader of the Blood Moon Wolf Pack.
There was less than a month left until the start of school.
During this time, the four alphas stayed by my side.
Fabian and Kieran patiently taught me how to manage pack affairs.There was something new to learn every day.
I was so exhausted I couldn't even lift a finger.
Logan pushed the door open and came in.
He couldn't help complaining.
"Sophia, you're so busy now that you don't even have time to spend with me."
I sighed helplessly and rubbed my sore shoulders.
"Everyone's in the same situation."
Theo suddenly walked into my room.
"Who says? Yesterday I saw Fabian kissing you in the room! He's clearly monopolizing you during work hours."
Logan immediately narrowed his eyes.
"Is what Theo said true?"
I swallowed and looked away.
"It was just a kiss, very brief..."
Theo walked up to me. "I don't care, tonight you're mine!"
Logan immediately retorted, "Hey! Hey! I was here first!"
I stood up from the chair and quietly slipped out while they were arguing, with Theo and Logan's protests following behind me.
After Marcus recovered from his injuries, he volunteered to become Will's assistant.
With him accompanying Will, I felt much more at ease.
With five days left until school started, I decided to return to the Silver Moon Wolf Pack early, so I said goodbye to them.
After leaving the room, I ran into Owen in the hallway.
When Owen saw me, reluctance flashed in his eyes.
"Sophia, are you leaving?"
I nodded. "Yes, do you want to come back to the Silver Moon Wolf Pack with us?"
Owen was silent for a moment, then shook his head.
"No, I plan to stay and take care of Marcus and Will."
I felt a bit guilty. "Owen, you don't have to do this for me..."
He was not yet twenty years old. He should have his own life, his own mate.
Owen smiled with relief.
"No, Sophia, staying here is the meaning of my life. I want to do something for you. At least this way, you'll still remember me."
I was about to say something more, but he waved his hand and interrupted me.
"Don't say anymore, Sophia. I've already decided."
I had no choice but to compromise.
The next day, I returned to the Silver Moon Wolf Pack with the four alphas.
This time, it was Theo driving.
As soon as the car stopped at the entrance of the Ellis Apartment, my phone rang.
It was Olivia calling.
"Sophia!! Quick! Come to the hospital quickly!"
My heart suddenly contracted, and I asked nervously, "What happened?! Olivia."
Her speech was rapid. "It's not me, it's Caroline. Her baby is born!"
I patted my chest and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Olivia, you almost scared me to death."
She laughed apologetically. "Sorry, I was too excited!"
Olivia gave me the hospital address.
I turned to look at the Ellis brothers.
"I need to go to the hospital to see Caroline now. Do you want to come with me?"
After all, Caroline's child was also their father's.
Theo thought for a while. "Fabian and I still have things to handle."
Logan and Kieran immediately said, "We also have things to handle. Sorry, we can't accompany you."
I looked at the four of them suspiciously, always feeling they were a bit strange.
Usually they couldn't wait to stick to me 24 hours a day, but today they were all so busy?
I went to the hospital and met Olivia and Ruby.
Together we went to Caroline's delivery room.
She had just given birth not long ago and was still very weak physically, but her eyes were full of happiness.
In her arms was her daughter, a tiny bundle, soft and pink.
I leaned over, smelling the milky fragrance coming from the child, my heart softening.
Caroline looked at the baby in her arms and said softly, "Sophia, can you give my child a name?"
I froze. "Me? Name her?!"
Caroline nodded. "Of course, you're the child's benefactor. If it weren't for you, how could I have given birth to her?"
I suddenly became nervous, rubbing my fingers together. I had never had experience naming a child before.
Ruby teased from the side, "Sophia, haven't you ever fantasized about someday in the future, when you have your own child, what name you'd give her?"
My face suddenly flushed red, and I quickly waved my hands.
"Of course not!"
Olivia urged me. "Hurry up, Sophia. If you don't want to, I have a good name!"
I thought seriously for a moment and asked tentatively, "How about Isabella?"
"Isabella..."
Caroline repeated it in a murmur, then her face broke into a smile.
"I think it's great. From now on, she'll be called Isabella!"
Watching the happy smile on Caroline's face, my emotions were infected too.
Ruby looked around curiously and asked, "By the way! Why don't I see those alphas? Didn't they come with you?"
I shrugged. "I'm not sure either. They said they had things to handle."
I was thinking that when I got back, I'd ask them again. My intuition told me they were hiding something from me.
At this moment, Olivia suddenly exclaimed.
I asked puzzled, "What's wrong?"
She said excitedly, "I know what they're up to! Sophia, have you forgotten? In a few days, it's your birthday!"
Oh my God! I had completely forgotten about this!
Ruby echoed excitedly, "So the few of them must be secretly organizing a birthday party for you!"
My heartbeat started racing uncontrollably.
I took a deep breath and looked at them.
"It might not be just that... I suspect that my wolf will very likely awaken on my birthday."
