July 16

Life in the pack house went on as normal, the same routine was observed by all, jobs were handed out by Mrs H in the morning, afternoon and evening. I was still on light duties for the most part. Primarily because no one knew that Alpha Williams had healed my side, and if I told them, then I would also have to tell them that he’s my mate, something my wolf was still insisting we keep to ourselves.

It was lunch time for the staff, and for the first time in as long as I could remember I was sat at the table with the girls. More often than not I used this time to take food to the pack members, but the Alphas lunch ran long, and Hannah still hadn’t finished packing up the leftovers.

The girls were all animated, no one had been hurt since my punishment, the visitors seemingly had our Alpha in a good mood and we were all reaping the benefits of that so lunch was a happy affair, with lots of laughter, only I couldn’t bring myself to take part.

While everyone around me was happy, laug

    July 16“What do you mean? What does he want you to do?” The elderly woman asked, closing the door behind her and taking a seat on the bed beside me.‘We’re beyond keeping secrets now, tell her, tell her everything. We need help.’ My wolf urged and I let out the deepest of sighs, dropping the lace onto the bed beside me and turned saddened eyes to the woman that had raised me.“The visiting Alpha, Alpha Williams. He’s my fated mate.” I stated, and watched as her jaw dropped, opened and closed before finally snapping shut. Under any other circumstance, I would have laughed aloud. Mrs H always had something to say, she was demure and conducted herself with proper decorum, she was never speechless.“I found out the night he arrived. Alpha Westley gave me Grace and Tara to the visitors, to use as they saw fit, but none of them touched us. I showed him to a room and he spent an hour asking me questions. Then when I was out in the gardens with Kyle and he requested my presence. My side was

    July 16“What is it?” The deep voice asked, echoing around the hall and I hesitated, regretting instantly not having a plan. Words failed me as I glanced back along the corridor towards the main house where I knew the Alpha would be before turning to see Alpha Williams glancing back at the occupants of his room.The beta and Gamma stood inside the open door, partially obscured by the Alphas wide frame, but there was no mistaking their curious gazes. Of course, they were curious, I had broken all manner of social etiquette by turning up here unannounced an uninvited, and me, a slave to another pack who was fated to become their Luna.My nerves got the better of me and I felt myself tremble as I pulled my eyes back to the Alpha while he watched me with a calculating expression.“Leave us.” He demanded and I swallowed hard, taking a step back into the hallway as horror raced through me. He wasn’t even going to hear me out. I squeezed my eyes shut as that sank in, the man who singularly h

    July 16The tension in the room was palpable, with each second my nerves increased. I was out of my depth here. I had no idea what this man expected of me. No idea what was acceptable and what wasn’t. He seemed to get angry at the slightest provocation, but the things I thought would stir that anger often didn’t.“Greyson and Anders will scout the house, try to find out what’s going on. For now, we just need to stay put.” The Alpha informed taking a seat on the edge of the bed and watching me with curios eyes. Eyes that saw entirely too much. It was terrifying.“Are you okay?” He asked and I gasped in a lungful of air before nodding with jerky movements. “You’re safe here Amara.” The dark-haired man stated with a frown and I considered that.I don’t think I would truly feel safe anywhere anymore. Alpha Westley would always be a threat, a guiding force in the back of my mind that had me questioning everything. His way of life was the only one I knew and speaking casually with an Alpha

    July 17“We have to go. Now!” The words still echoed through my head, and I replayed the conversation in my head like a bad movie.“What’s going on?”“Alpha Westley is working with other packs, there’s an attack planned on Silver lake.”“When?” The single word from Able’s lips was strained and I worried for a moment that his wolf was about to take over once again.“He was on the phone with Alpha Greening, from Black rock. It sounded like they were setting out tonight. Black rock is only half a days travel from home.”“Who else is involved?”“Don’t know, he didn’t say specifically, just said that ‘the others’ would join them as soon as possible. He also has a contingent from Red mist already on route.”“Shit!”What followed were lots of hurried directions, phone calls and plans, and the entire time I sat in a trance, not really comprehending what was happening. I mean how could I. My life had gone from being simple, where on any given day I followed directions and didn’t need to worry

    July 18The rest of the drive to Silver lake was long, with only a couple of short stops for food and to change drivers we spent the hours sleeping, taking in the scenery and in whispered conversations.Able spent the entire journey by my side, much to my confusion but Anders and Greyson said they didn’t mind driving, and they were happy to give us some quiet time together, the assumption being that it would be all hands-on deck and a new kind of mayhem once we arrived.I learnt a lot about my mate during the hours we spent together, some things he spoke about, some I observed, but the thing that really stuck with me was the relationship he had with the other two guys.I had witnessed more than one conversation between Alpha Westley and his Beta, and it was always one sided and unpleasant to hear. The Alpha cared about nothing but power and wealth and his own notoriety, and it showed. He was rude, demanding and condescending to everyone around him, even his second in command.Able on

    July 18Anders led the way inside the pack house, through the double front doors, the large entry hall with open plan staircase and upper balcony, and into the only door on the right hand wall, he didn’t pause to point things out or even let me look around, and with the single minded focus he was exhibiting, I was worried that if I stopped for even a second I would end up losing him, not something I wanted to have as my first memory of this house.I stepped through the wide doorway into a room bigger than any I had ever seen before, with huge picture windows and heavy drapes, cream walls, hard wood flooring and dark wood trim.It was a little surreal as I glanced around the room, as though everything was supersized. The stone fireplace almost directly in front of me was almost as tall as me, the armchairs placed around it could likely seat two people each. The largest sectional imaginable sat on a huge cream rug to my right, the corner sofa could easily seat twenty people and was posi

    July 20The sun was setting by the time Able and I left the medical centre. Over the last few hours, Doc Barrett and I, with the assistance of Kora and Addison, had managed to get the case load under control, with six patients who would be staying in for monitoring, including Brody and only a handful left to be seen.Able had caught up with everything that was going on and formulated a plan with the assistance of his father and Beta. We received confirmation from a nearby pack that further reinforcements were being sent, along with one of their pack doctors and supplies.For now it looked like the fighting had come to a standstill, although shifters of all ages patrolled along the edge of the pack lands, waiting for an opening to invade.The general consensus right now was that they wanted something, and Able expected that Alpha Westley would be in contact with demands soon enough, in the meantime, the pack was using the down time to rest and recover and plan out additional defences.

    July 20“You okay?” Able’s words were gentle, his hand soothing as he ran circles on my back while I, embarrassingly, heaved into the shrubbery. Unfortunately, not even the tingles were enough to overcome the dread I felt in the pit of my stomach.His brother.Oh my god, what if he doesn’t make it. Would they blame me. His Mum who was sweet and kind, his father with his soothing charm, the sister I hadn’t met yet and the pack who idolised the Alphas family, and finally my mate, my salvation, my future. Would they forgive me?“He’ll be okay. Doc said you did a great job.” Able tried soothing me but it was in vain. Because all I could think of were the what if’s.I stood on shaky legs, wiping my mouth on the sleeve of the scrubs I still wore and let Able pull me into him, his arms wrapping around my shoulders and my head reasting against the bare skin of his muscled chest.“You did amazingly Amara. Mum spent a full ten minutes bragging about how you jumped into helping doc. About how m

    July 20An older woman came into view in the open doorway, bending to help Rebecca stand, edging around the puddle of sick, her dark eyes lifted and landed on my patient before her skin paled. I guess it was a gruesome sight, I mean it turned my stomach initially but all the same, there were an awful lot of people struggling with this. Who was this boy?I shook off the thoughts. As my hands moved, cleaning an incision in the boy’s bowel before placing a stitch to hold the edges together then moving on to the next hole.“Talk to me Jay, what’s wrong with him.” I asked my guard, who was cutting the fabric off the other man’s body as my eyes kept sweeping up to Rebecca in the doorway.“Beck?” Greyson’s voice out in the hall caught her attention and I glanced down, cleaning out another cut, adding a stitch then continuing.“Kora, I need you to start at this end.” I instructed, handing her the other end of the bowels. “He’s losing a lot of blood, we need to get him closed up as soon as we

    July 18“I can’t.” I uttered, the words sticking, and I cleared my throat. “I can’t make these decisions Greyson. I don’t know anything about running a pack, hell I don’t know anything about this pack. I don’t even know where the borders are. You need to do it.” My voice shook with fear. What if he made me do it? could I actually live with myself if I got someone killed in my ignorance.“If you’re sure you are okay with that.” He uttered glancing around tentatively. “I won’t go over your head, you’re my superior.” He stated and I shook my head with a whole new level of panic.“No, please.” I muttered, my head a complete mess. Able was still unconscious, I had literally only seen the pack house and one road of Silver lake land, and I was being asked to make decisions that were so far outside my ability, outside my comfort zone. I had never even been allowed to pick the dinner menu before today. Every move I made was decided for me, and while I had always dreamed of freedom, I had never
