"I think we should move Mike. His presence here, so close to you, is not good for anyone. He thinks that he will survive this because of magic or whatever. He thinks that his mother will save him. He thinks that he will have you, still. If he is here, it's a beacon straight to you." The deep growly voice of my father comes from the back of the room and I just stare. "We have a location on our Eastern border, it is not something that is general knowledge, but it is something the former Alphas had for particularly nasty prisoners that they didn't want in or near the packhouse. It will place Mike the furthest from the mainland entrance and from the Alphas."

I just stare. I have no thoughts in my head at all. I heard my father's voice and saw him speak... to me... but I still can't process the idea. Where the hell did this 180 come from? All it took was his second chance mate to treat me like a person? Or Maybe it's because I am one of his Alpha's now and his sense of duty and loyalty are still just ingrained in his job.

"What do you think, Love?" Cam pulls me out of my shock. "What does your gut say? Keep him close or get him as far away as possible?"

"I think that it would ease everyone's mind if he was gone. The packhouse needs to be our safe space. I think I would like our warriors close when they aren't on duty, though. Can we fit all the warriors in the ranked housing? I don't want everyone scattered when they are off duty. With all the mind control stuff that Adrielle is capable of from a distance, I want to know where everyone is all the time."

"I think that can be arranged. Ava and I will take on that organization." Brett raises his hand from near the door. "We'll let you know if we come across any complications."

"Thank you, Dad." Oliver runs his hand up my arm.

"How are the people we collected from Robbie? Did we capture or keep any of the people that fought us that day?" I try to move on quickly. My wolf is thrumming with the idea that Mike might still be able to take us from the guys and I don't want an audience for that conversation, because if she gets angry enough we may shift.

"The ones Robbie brought us are still at the school. Many of them have started helping with meal prep and organizing supplies for the warriors. They have been checked over thoroughly by both the healers and Gentry and Elena. They don't leave the school, but we have allowed them to use the playground and outdoor eating area to give them a small bit of freedom. Only time will tell where their loyalties lie." Kyle says from near the window. "All of the fighters are being contained in the small fighting arena. We have temporary shelters set up for them, but we are still working through them with the healers. Many had injuries and all of them had the tracker implanted. They all seem very dazed and confused as they come out of whatever chemical control they had. We just don't know if there is any other magic going on." "Anyone who died in the fight we did a mass burn. I hope that released them back to the Goddess. We did keep your pack members separate from the fighters that came with Mike so they could be celebrated. You only lost three warriors." Wyatt knew I needed our number. I always had a count. I don't know why it matters, but it does. I just nod my head, my wolf is getting agitated.

"Wyatt, can you help Daniel relocate Mike? Brett and Ava can work through organizing the warriors. Nathaniel will you need anything else since we will be moving warriors away from the borders?" He shakes his head. "I don't think so, but let's put a pin in it until I can reassess."

"Kyle, keep working with the captured fighters. If they are anything like the people Robbie brought us, we might be able to offer them a home here after all of this is over with. It seems like these people are unwilling participants. I don't think we have seen the worst of their fighters." He nods at me. "I have a couple more questions for Gentry and Elena, and then the rest of us can start to work on this fire situation." "Wyatt, Nathaniel and Lil, will you three stick around for a second and then you can go to your assignments. Sam, Mateo, Jena and Sierra, we will meet you out back to discuss this fire thing in a few minutes." Cam finishes assigning tasks.

Once everyone but my team has cleared out, I stand up from Cam's lap. This feels like such a big deal. Cam looks to Oliver, who starts talking, walking around the edge of the desk.

"We know how close you all are to Skylar and our situation is beyond unusual. Now that I am one of the Alphas, being her mate." He rolls his eyes at his own comment. "Not gonna lie, that sounds so pretentious." He rubs his hand over his face. He doesn't like talking about his own accomplishments, unless it's to compete with me. "Our Gamma position is open. Lil, we have discussed it and would like you to fill that position, if you want it. You would round out our female leaders."

Her eyes go wide and look at me. "Are you serious?" She breathes out.

"Of course we are. I know your contract is up at the end of the summer and I want you here with me." I look at her hoping she says yes.

"OH HELL YES!!" She shouts and pushes past Oliver to jump on me. "I have been trying to figure out how to talk you into letting me stay." She laughs, squeezing my neck and jumping. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"I'm so glad you were such a hard sell." Dakota laughs. "And Nathaniel and Wyatt, you both obviously have a place here too. Sky's whole team means the world to her and you guys have proven time and time again why. Our warrior team would be lucky to have you."

I walk over and give them both hugs too. They are happy, but not trying to strangle me like Lil is. They each shake hands with my mates. "Alright, Alpha Midge, we'll see you outside." Wyatt follows Nathaniel, dragging Lil.

We all turn to Elena and Gentry. "So tell us more about mating with Skylar."
