The rest of lunch was enjoyable, and I couldn't help but notice that everyone who came over to meet me was so friendly and warm. When we finally got up to begin the tour they said they'd take me on, I was feeling so bouyantly happy that I couldn't stop smiling, and Cole and Finn were returning it. They led me out through the large main doors, to a large stone-paved path with the most incredible views. I could see from here that we truly were near the top of one of the mountains, with the packhouse built into the side, above all the other buildings. The wide path - broad enough for a large car - wound back and forth, in front of other buildings that were built on lower levels. They pointed out their medical and training buildings on the level below, both of them almost as large as the packhouse, and a slightly taller building in between them which housed some of the single pack members. The level below that was larger, a rare patch of flatter land there, which seemed to form their pa

I nodded sadly and tried to push my way from between the two of them, but they only closed in around me more. Cole held my face gently, tilting it up towards him, "I'm so sorry, little mate, I had no idea," he said softly, a look of both guilt and sorrow on his face. I shook my head gently, trying to pull his hand down and look away, "It's not your fault," I said softly, and truthfully. It didn't seem to assuage their guilt any though, and Finn wrapped his arms tightly around my shoulders from behind, leaning down to nuzzle his face into my neck. "I'm sorry, little wolf," he said sadly, "Our father did truly terrible things, we should have stopped him earlier." I shook my head again, reaching up to place my hands on his strong arms, and rested my head against his, "It's not your fault," I repeated quietly. He kissed my cheek then, and Cole stroked the other, placing a soft kiss on my forehead instead, "Finn's right," he said, his voice full of regret, "We should have stopped him soo

Luca put on a superhero movie he seemed particularly fond of, and grabbed a couple of throws, putting one across my lap before relaxing back next to me. Jess and Quentin came up not long after, both of them give us a quizzical look, "Wow, they actually let you out on your own?" Jess said, teasing. Luca frowned sightly at that, "They got called away, something urgent. Thane gave me pup sitting duty."He gave me a playful wink, but his comment seemed to make them both feel uncomfortable, "All three of them?" Quentin asked, sounding surprised, and Luca nodded. "Did they say..?" he started to continue, but stopped as Luca shook his head, "Nope, just not to let her out of my sight, for any reason," he said, making them frown at each other. "Well, three pairs of eyes are better than none," Jess said with a shrug, sitting herself on my other side and reclining her section of the couch back. "Right," Quentin agreed, turning around, "How about some drinks and popcorn then?" Luca grinned at hi

I woke up feeling just as disoriented and unable to move, but for different reasons, I quickly realised, feeling my wrists and ankles bound to some kind of frame. I tried to open my eyes, and found them covered, and made myself completely still again, listening. I couldn't hear anyone, and with any luck, perhaps my captors hadn't noticed me wake. Not that it could help me much right now, but surely it wouldn't hurt to have some element of surprise. I could feel the fog in my mind slowly beginning to lift, and wondered how long it would be before they dosed me again. Surely they wouldn't let me try to contact.. Thane! I suddenly remembered hearing his voice, after I was drugged, through the mindlink. I tried to link with him again now, but it was still too thick, and all I could feel was Lisbet, seething in the back of my mind. 'Do you know where we are?' I asked her, and felt her anger rise, 'No,' she said, her fury clear in her tone, 'Whatever they gave us was particularly nasty, a

I felt Lisbet beginning to pull hard at the cuffs and chains then, trying to break them, and I began to wonder if she'd lost it. 'You heard them,' I said to her quietly, within our mind, 'They're solid iron, even a Lycan couldn't break them.' She didn't stop though, and I could feel the pain in our ankles and wrists as she continued, 'It's a good thing we're no ordinary Lycan, then,' she answered as she gave another hard yank on the wrist chains. 'Stop, Lisbet!' I cried out, feeling the sharp pain more with each one, and tried to take control back, but she fought hard to keep it. She snarled suddenly, and a different kind of pain filled our shared body, through every bone as she began to turn. A long few moments of agony followed, added to by the hard metal digging into our flesh as it morphed into our wolf - no, Lycan form. That surprised me more than anything, as we turned into a huge, silvery-white furred beast, crouched in an upright position, and much larger than any wolf could

I leapt aside, terrified, and turned sharply, realising he'd leapt at Quentin behind me, the two of them now engaged in fierce battle. 'I'm right behind him little wolf,' Thane's voice said, and I felt a wave of relief as I heard another bike coming through the tunnel, but it was quickly diminished as I saw Finn get thrown across the ground, staggering slightly as he pushed himself to his feet again, blood dripping from deep claw wounds across his chest. Fury rose up inside me then, and as Quentin stretched up and howled, no doubt calling the others to his side, I dropped my things and launched myself at him. It took him by surprise as my jaw went straight for his armpit, my long canines penetrating deep, right where I knew I'd hit a vital nerve network, and potentially an artery. I clamped down hard, and he snarled loudly, using his whole body to try and shake me off violently. I released him just as quickly, letting him throw me several metres aside where I rolled quickly back ont

Thane reached over to squeeze my shoulder gently, as he saw the look on my face, then headed over towards Jess. She started screaming, "What the fuck are you doing?! Why aren't you helping him?!" sounding panicked and heartbroken. She tried pulling his arms up and hoisting him over her shoulder, but his the weight of his huge, limp body made her stumble. "Jess," Thane said softly, his voice full of sympathy, and she looked up, wiping her tears with the backs of her now-bloody hands. "Why aren't you helping him?" she asked helplessly, and Thane sighed, shaking his head. "He was involved, Jess," he said heavily, and she stared at him as though he had two heads, "Of course he was, that's why he's here, he obviously came after them.."She trailed off as Thane shook his head sadly, "What are you saying?" she asked, her voice sounding choked, "Did.. did you do this?" She glanced between Thane and Quentin, her eyes wide as she shook her head. "No.. you know he wouldn't do this, Thane, he co

The ride home was rough, with the adrenaline from the chase and subsequent fight well and truly gone, and the cold turning bitter as night began to fall. It didn't help any being half naked, with my legs exposed to the icy wind for all of the long ride home. By the time the bikes slowed and pulled into the garage, I felt frozen, numb, and trembling. I stumbled as I tried to dismount, and Finn caught me, steadying me before he dismounted too, taking my helmet. I only shivered more, trying to tug the hem down on the hoodie and wiggle my fingers to warm them, and they both looked at me with expressions of deep concern. Cole took the helmet from Finn, gesturing for his jacket and gloves too. "Let me put everything away and go and check in, get her upstairs and into a hot bath," Cole said, coming over and pulling me against him while Finn took his gear off. I snuggled into his warmth and he kissed me softly, resting his head and looking into my eyes, "Don't worry, little mate," he said s

After that, everything else began to happen all at once. A blurry, chaotic, storm of events, as attacks began, from their side, and then ours, as our patrols began to hit their more isolated groups, using the terrain they knew so well to take them by surprise. We weakened them quickly there, while our sentries weakened those who dared attack our home, the few who broke through meeting Tyson and his teams, and finding themselves overwhelmingly outmatched. As the sun went down, they only grew more desperate and disorganised, the attacking groups growing smaller, weaker, and far less confident. Within a few hours, Marcus had his original patrols hunting down the remnants of Yannick's pack. Yannick himself was captured as he tried to flee, and his Beta, Sean, was killed as he led a dismal final attempt to attack our home. It was almost dawn again when Yannick was brought before us, greatly wounded in both pride and body. Cole, Finn, and I stared down at him with disdain, while we awaite

Dorian reached up to wipe my tears with his thumbs, a look of sorrow-filled sympathy on his face, "I promise you, we'll help him as best we can," he said softly, "but your pack still needs you, you need to help them." I stared at him wide eyed, not feeling like I could help anyone right now, but he cupped my cheeks gently, giving me an encouraging nod. "I.. but.." I stammered, looking around and seeing so many uncertain faces looking right back at me, and I knew that it was me who needed to give them certainty again. He stepped back, organising for Thane to be taken to the hospital, and I shook my head sadly, taking several long deep breaths and closing my eyes for a moment, before speaking again. "I need reports," I said more firmly, "I need to know what's happening with the incursions, and.." I paused for a moment again, trying to clear my head enough to focus. "The sentries, they need to report to Finn now," I said, looking up at him. His face was pale, so very pale, and shocked,

Samantha seemed to find some determination from somewhere though, straightening her posture even as her companion fell forward, his face hitting the ground with a soft thud. She suddenly dropped her hand, allowing the metal piece to move towards her, before suddenly raising both, trying to thrust it towards me with everything she had. I screamed wordlessly, letting that rage rush through me again, wildly, as I raised both hands, thrusting them towards her. I could see the fear in her eyes as the object raced towards her, and unable to stop it, she ducked, and it shot right past her, barely missing her companions, and out of sight. She turned to me as she straightened again, but her eyes were drawn to the same thing that had caught my own attention. From Thane's slowly stirring body, a dark figure had formed, leaving his body and hovering above it. "What are you doing?!" Samantha screamed at it, sounding hysterical, "She's right there! Take her!" She pointed at me, but nothing rushed

"Where?" asked Finn, and I frowned at him, "Right there, in the middle, Thane's walking over to her.." I stopped as he exchanged a look with Jess, both of them looking puzzled. "The young blonde kid?" Jess asked, and I stared at her in bewilderment, "What young blonde kid? I mean the black haired woman, standing in the middle of the group waiting for Thane." Finn stopped walking, grabbing my arm and turning me towards him, "You see a black haired woman standing there?" he asked, as he and Jess both frowned at me in confusion. "Yes.. don't you?" I asked, suddenly feeling uncertain, and they both shook their heads looking concerned. "No.." Jess began, looking thoughtful, "Do you think.. could she be masking herself somehow?" she asked, looking up at Finn. "I don't know.." he said, as he rubbed his chin, seeming to consider the idea, then lifted a brow, looking over behind us, "but I know someone who would," he added, and I turned, seeing Elyanna over at the edge of the green, closer t

As we reached the green, we noticed the tension in the air. Nerves were frayed, and some were frightened, knowing something was happening, but having no clear message of what. A few people stopped, staring at us, seeming to be waiting for something, and I sighed, looking up at Finn. "They need to know," I said gently, and he frowned, shaking his head, "Thane.." he began, and I gently put a hand on his arm. "Check with him," I said gently, "but he's not down here, he doesn't see their nervousness. They'd feel better if they knew, and knew it was being handled." He sighed, but nodded, his eyes going blank for a moment, before they came into focus again, "He still doesn't want to share much," he said, looking mildly disappointed, "but we can let them know a little." I nodded, giving him an encouraging smile, and he turned, making eye contact with those watching and waiting nervously, beckoning them over. When a small crowd had gathered around us, he lifted his head, raising his voice,

Josefine turned to him with an arched eyebrow and a stern look, before looking back to me, "Which one of you does the Fearmonger seek?" she asked. "They said it was me," I answered quietly. "Have you confirmed it?" she asked, and I frowned, asking her, "How would I do that?" She gave a brief nod, then turned to the others, who already seemed to be gathering some things up. "Leave it with us," Josefine said, as they all began heading for the door, and Elyanna ushered for us to follow, "We will do what we can," she said encouragingly, "For now, take care of your pack, defend them if need be. We'll find you when it's time," she continued, as we followed the others outside. "When it's time for what?" I asked, as she pulled her door closed behind us, locking it with a key on a ring full of others. My mind caught on that detail for some reason, it seeming odd, given her tiny cottage, for there to be so many. She smiled and reached over to touch my cheek gently, drawing my attention back t

"Just like Margrethe herself," Mathilde breathed softly, half to herself, and Anne stood, coming closer and peering over her friend's shoulder. "Truly!" she gasped, seeming just as surprised and impressed as Mathilde was. I frowned at them both, as Lisbet began to withdraw again, "Margrethe?" I asked, and they stared at me in mild disbelief."Queen Margrethe, of course!" Josefine said, sounding a little offended, and Anne turned to face her. "She is so young, you cannot expect her to remember a Queen long before her time," Anne said gently. Josefine tilted her chin up slightly, "She was also a werewolf, do they not teach the history of their own Royals?" she asked, and Elyanna sighed. "Whether they do or not, Laila had no control over what she herself was taught as a child," she said sternly, "Do not place the blame that belongs to the generations past on her shoulders."Anne nodded agreement, along with Sofie, and Josefine scowled. "It may be the fault of generations past, but will sh

Elyanna opened the door a moment later, with a small frown in her face. Seeing us, she stepped outside, rather than inviting us in, pulling the door closed behind her. "Finn, Laila," she said with a warm smile, though her forehead still held a small crease, "What's happened?" she asked. Finn and I exchanged a glance, and he gave her an apologetic smile, "This.. probably won't be a quick conversation," he said hesitantly, "Would you prefer to have it inside?" Her lips pursed together as she shifted uncomfortably, "Ah, at the moment, I have.. company," she said awkwardly, "That you may not wish to overhear?" she continued, her tone suggestive. He sighed, and nodded, "We hoped it might have been the kind of company that might have offered further insight," he said gently, "We've just had some ourselves." She raised an eyebrow, "You have learned something?" she asked, seeming surprised, and Finn shook his head, giving a short laugh. "No, I don't think so," he said, "It was Yannick, from

Marian looked stunned, the colour draining from her face, and she closed her eyes, rubbing her forehead, seeming to process what he'd just told her. "Okay," she said shakily, ".. okay, okay.." she took a couple of deep breaths, her eyes still closed as she calmed herself, before looking back at Finn and I. "Are we still trying to keep the South Wing clear?" she asked, sounding much more composed. Finn nodded, "Yes, if we can manage without it," she nodded again, seeming to have fully recovered from her shock as she took charge, and I had to admire her ability to react well under pressure. "We only have five patients at the moment, in wards One through Three," she said, seemingly half to herself. "Camille!" she called out, and the other nurse stuck her head out of one of the nearby wards, "Prepare ward Twelve for emergency triage, we might have a lot of incomings. Eleven too, just in case."Camille stared at her in disbelief for a moment, and Marian raised an eyebrow, "Now! Laila and
