We looked at each other, and I winced. “I’ll send out a mind-link.” He nodded and then headed to the pack house.Oakenfang!All pack members come to the pack house front steps.There will be an announcement. Be there in fifteen minutes.
There was almost a sigh of relief that rippled down the mind-link. Then there was a murmur of agreement.Yes, Alpha Amy.
I turned to Rowan. “We have fifteen minutes.” He nodded. We hit the pack house quickly and found a wolf screaming.
“Has anyone seen my pup?” She was near hysterical.
“Mena.” I called out and held up Celia.
“Amy! Thank the goddess.” She ran over. “Where did you run off to?” She grabbed Celia from me. “Are you okay? Are you hurt?” Celia shook her head. “Whose blood is this?” She turned to me, but I held my hands.
“I found her outside my house like this.”
“I thought Alpha Amy might help daddy.” She wiped at her nose. “Everyone kept screaming at him, and someone punched his nose.” She wiped at her hands. “I ran to find her.”
Mena sagged in relief. “Your father is fine, baby girl. He’s looking for you.” She turned to me. “Thank you.”
“No worries. Be here for the announcement.” Then I sprinted off to the right. Rowan followed me to the medical building. We ran through the front door and I started calling out for someone. “Luke! Anyone here!” I heard footsteps coming down the hall.
“Amy? What’s wrong? Who’s hurt?” Luke jogged around the corner, already looking for an injury.
“No one here.” I grabbed him. “I need your entire stock of lupine solution.”
“What, why?”
“Don’t ask stupid questions, Luke.” Rowan stepped up next to me, and Luke finally noticed him.
“Rowan!” He took a few steps, and they were hugging. “It’s been too long.”
Rowan smiled. “Yeah, it has been, but listen to my mate. Lupine solution. We can catch up after everything has been settled.” Luke nodded.
“Come on back.” He turned and headed back down the hall. “This is actually perfect. The pack is in complete disarray, and we could use an Alpha to calm people down.”
I nodded. “We have a meeting at the pack house in like ten minutes to address everything.” An idea blossomed in my mind. “Actually, after we grab everything, can you come with us?”
Luke opened a door and started down rows of supplies. “Of course.” He looked at me for a second. “Why?”
I smiled as I started to fill the duffle with the bags he started pulling from the shelf. “I just need your help with something.”
Once both bags were full and Vince’s pack was completely drained of lupine solution, we all headed out of the med building. Luke locked the door behind us, and when I tilted my head watching him, he scratched the back of his neck.
“Everyone else is already at the pack house waiting for the meeting. I guess I just locked it out of habit.” The tips of his ears turned a soft pink as I turned away.
Rowan shifted, and I heard a soft smack that was followed by an indignant yelp. “Don’t flirt with my mate, Luke. You’re my friend, and I’d hate to kill you.” That made me smile as I started toward the pack house.
“I wasn’t.” Luke tried to deny it, but Rowan just grunted as they both followed me. He cleared his throat. “I assume you need the lupine solution urgently, so why are you having a meeting at the pack house?”
I puffed out my lips as I thought of my father’s pack. “We do. But as a Alpha of this pack, I also have to worry about the wolves here.” I looked over my shoulder as we turned onto the street of the pack house. Chaos still reigned here.
“What the fuck is going on?” Luke’s eyes widened when he saw the mess. Wolves were bleeding. A few were still fighting. There were a pair of males in the back half shifted, and taking swipes at each other.
Rowan sighed. “This is why we needed to do this. And quickly.” I nodded before I released my aura.
The ones not fighting dropped to their knees. The few still fighting resisted the power because they felt like they were in danger. I turned to the two males beside me. “Go break them up.” Rowan and Luke nodded and ran off as I grabbed both bags and made my way to the steps. Everyone watched me as I pushed out my aura. My Alpha aura kept them on their knees, but my Gamma abilities kept them calm. “Oakenfang!” I called out, and most bowed their heads. I waited until the fight was over, andthe rest dropped to their knees. “One day without an Alpha and you all turn to this?” I lifted my brow and my lip. The older people had the decency to look ashamed.
“Where is Alpha Vince?”
“Where is Beta Morgan?”
