Since leaving his old pack, Jake’s learned to smile through the holidays, but the silence between songs still hurts—letters from his mother, a father who won’t forgive, and a home he can’t go back to. Leo sees it all. His carpenter hands built them a farmhouse in the snowy North, but this season, he’s building something else: a way to bring Jake joy again. On Christmas Eve, the living room lights flip on to reveal family—their family—Kael, Chance, Cooper, and Adrian, arms full of pizza, warmth, and terrible jokes. The pack closes ranks, not with orders but with love, reminding Jake that bonds aren’t measured in blood, but in who shows up when the snow gets deep. Later, behind a closed door and a blindfold, Leo offers a private gift that says everything he can’t: you’re cherished, you’re seen, and I’m yours until sunrise.
