I pinch the bridge of my nose when, yet again, my pack screams after Sadie disappears.

I saw it in her face. It wasn’t like she was trying to hide it or anything. She enjoyed the fact that she had scared the**p out of them. She loved that she had gotten to torment them.

The fear in their faces is evident. They really do believe that Sadie has come back from the dead to haunt them.

“Calm down,” I roar above their screams and fear, hoping they would hear me.

“Didn’t you just see that, Alpha! She’s a ghost!” someone cries, and he looks like he’s going to pee in his pants.

“Just follow me to the meeting hall!” this time I yell in irritation because it seems like nothing I tell them is working.

They scramble to leave the training arena. Most of them seem relieved that they are finally leaving a place they think is ‘haunted.’

When everyone is gone, I’m left standing alone in the arena. Using the mind link, I call for a pack meeting. The sooner they know about Sadie, the better. Yesterday, when we arrived, I had warned the elders and the omega who served Sadie not to mention anything to anyone about Sadie. I’d felt that it was my job to explain to them. That they should hear everything from me.

Now as I stand here, staring at where Sadie just disappeared, I am starting to doubt my decision. I should have done this the moment the meeting with the elders was over.

I turn on my heels and head towards the meeting hall. The sooner I get this done, the sooner I can focus on other things.

“You called a meeting?” Jason asks as he steps beside me on my way to the meeting room.

“Yeah. They need to know Sadie is back, and they need to know that she’s innocent.” I reply, not breaking a step as I walk towards my destination with determination.

This is my mess to fix. I am the one that fell for the wrong one. I am the one that started this whole **t show when I decided Sadie was guilty without digging into the matter further.

What kind of leader does that make me? I’ve always had a clear and level head, so why didn’t I push this further? Why didn’t I investigate deeper? Instead, I assumed that she was guilty just because she gave me a drink handed to her by Calvin.

Why didn’t I see how unclear things were? How suspicious things looked? Hell, my ga**a his intuition. An intuition that led him to believe that not everything was as it seemed.
