The entire room fills with heat as all four of us fight to keep our wolves at bay. Not only did she insult our Luna and threaten her and the baby’s life, but she disrespected my mate as well.

Chayton stands slowly. “I’m giving you four hours to get your shit and get off of Dark Woods land,” he snarls. “If you’re here even a second longer than that, I will have my Beta’s mate live up to her threat. Do you understand?”

“But—”

“Do you understand,” Chayton roars, causing her to shriek.

She drops her head. “Yes, Alpha,”

“No, I’m no longer your Alpha. I strip you of your Dark Woods membership.”

She whimpers as she feels the protection and the connection with Dark Woods slip away. It’s okay to dislike another member of the pack. But a wolf cannot stay if they do not respect and accept the Luna or the Alpha. It causes too many problems with the dynamics of the pack. However, I think she got off easily. I don’t hurt women, but I had no problem asking my mate to handle the she-wolf for the way she spoke on our Luna and the baby.

“Get out of my office. Your time is running out,” Chayton snarls.

Nadia quickly scurries out of the building.

Chayton turns to me. “Tell Michaela I want her on standby to make sure Nadia is off my pack lands. She has my permission to take off the wolf’s head if she isn’t. Tell her to leave the family out of it.”

“Tell him I had no plans to kill the family, anyway. But that bitch is mine.”

I shake my head.“What have I told you about eavesdropping in my head, mate?”

Her soft laughter has my cock getting hard. There is no fucking way.

“Sorry, but I wanted to know what she would say. I’ll leave you men to your business.”She slips out of my thoughts as silently and subtly as she came in.

“Everything is handled,” I tell Chayton. Before I can say anything else, the pack link vibrates, letting us know we have a problem.

“Council scouts have just arrived at the gates of pack land.”

Chayton looks at me with wide eyes.

“Alarick, take your mate and go to Enzo's and Michaela’s home. It is the furthest from town. They won’t be able to scent you there.”

“I’ve already notified Ashara,” Alarick says as he makes his way to the door.

“I’ll let Michaela know you’re coming.” I say. He looks over his shoulder at us and nods his head.

“Thank you,” he says to the three of us before heading out the door.

“You two go and meet the scouts,” Zyion adds. “I’ll make sure everything is taken care of here.”

Chayton and I rush out of the office door. We transform into our wolf forms before racing off to meet the visitors.

“Heads up. Alarick and his mate are heading to you. We have council scouts here. Stay hidden until I come for you.”

“Zo, they can’t know I’m here,”her fear filled voice comes through our link. She’s terrified.

“And they won’t. I got you. Stay hidden.”I tell her before disconnecting the link.

Chayton and I both transform back right as we greet the three scouts. None of them look as intimidating as Alarick did.

“Alpha Chayton,” the tall shifter with blue eyes says. “My name is Sebastian. I’m here on behalf of the wolf council.”

“Nice to meet you. This is my Beta, Enzo.”

The three wolves dip their chin toward me.
