I sigh with relief. “Thank the goddess“.
“Bad news is they were scouts. All rouge omega’s with cameras feeding information back to the other side. They know we have the ladies here which is why they most likely targeted the pack. They will most likely attack again with the information they got today.”
We stopped and turned when Valerie spoke up. “I don’t understand. Why are we the targets“.
Lewana starts explaining. “Because wolf packs have become very male–dominated, there aren’t enough she–wolfs to make powerful offspring. The rogue’s plan is to kidnap status strong she–wolves and force them to breed“.
The whole room is silent while this information sinks in. One of the Alphas from the south speaks up. “Why was none of
this planned for if you knew the risk“.
I take over at this point. “Because I didn’t agree to this ceremony and had no knowledge that it had started until it was announced. The council decided they knew better and put you all at risk so they could try and get more status and power by having their related candidate as my mate“.
There is a room full of murmurs at this point. I look at the council members and they are all being glared at while looking trying to pretend it is not affecting them. But someone is missing.
“Where is Alpha Angus“, I ask.
“That’s the worst news. Alpha Angus is dead“.
Before anyone can react Ewan mutters under his breath. “Good, coward should have died“. He clearly didn’t expect it to be
as loud as it was.
Alpha Leroy, son of Angus and Darlina’s father instantly rages. “How dare you say that about my father, pup.”
Before he can go any further Lewana is in the middle of him and Ewan with her eyes glowing gold protecting the pup.
“Don’t you dare yell at a pup of my pack. Especially after he saved your daughter“. She turns to Ewan. “What did you mean by that comment“.
“When Alpha Angus and Lady Darlina got separated they were surrounded by three Lycans. Alpha Angus pushed Darlina to the Lycans so he could escape. I was going to get back up when I saw you coming to rescue her my lady“.
Everyone is horrified by this story. They look at Darlina who just nods in agreement.
Liam tries to get us to focus on the bigger issue here. “What’s the plan for security Alpha King“.
I just pinch the bridge of my nose and Lewana comes over and puts a comforting hand on my shoulder.
“All guests are confined to the pack house tonight. All pack members are confined to the compound. Guards to patrol the compound and its surroundings. All soldiers to man the territory border to make sure it is secure overnight. Hunters to do a full survey and feedback on anything needed to make immediate improvements“.
Lewana starts to speak up too. “Arthur can support the pack in the compound. Liam should stay with you to act on incoming reports. I will go with the hunters to work out how they go in so they don’t use the same methods next time.

Your friend in IT should also look at those cameras“.
I looked at her shocked. I speak to her with my voice trembling slightly. “I don’t want you to go back out there. You’re a
target too“.
“I know shadow. But keeping everyone safe is the priority. I won’t be alone as I will have all the hunters and some soldiers with me“. I just nod at her.
“What about the elimination ceremony. We’re still going to do that. Right“.
We all turn around and see fucking Cordelia.
