Chapter 5

Amarah My eyes shift from left to right and back again as I keep an eye out for Rogues.

Our patrols on the eastern border have been tightened after three Rogues managed to cross into our neighbor’s territory.

I have a clear view of their border across the clearing, as do all the Warriors on border patrol.

I can still hear Dad roar the morning he was informed by Alpha Damon that three Rogues had entered their territory and killed two of his Pack members.

Dad called every Warrior who had been on patrol into his office, but no one had seen any Rogues.

Dad, his Beta, and his Gamma went over everything, but they found nothing out of the ordinary.

When they finally emerged from his office, Dad told us what had happened.

After dinner, I snuck into his office to take a look for myself.

I couldn’t see anything wrong either, but I wanted to find an answer for Dad, so I asked my best friends for a sleepover.

The moment the door to my room was closed, they asked me what I needed them to do, and I knew I had made the right decision.

After I told them everything, they were lost in thought for a while.

It only took a few minutes before one of them suggested we go out there ourselves to see how things worked on the job.

It took us about fifteen minutes to get ready.

We snuck out of the Pack house after making sure everyone was asleep and quickly made our way to the eastern border to observe.

After watching the Warriors patrol for an hour, I knew what the problem was, and so did my best friends.

The next morning, we walked into my Dad’s office and told him that we knew how the Rogues had gotten past our Warriors.

Dad was furious, to say the least, about us sneaking out of the Pack house, but after he finished yelling at us, he asked us to explain it.

Our Warriors run the borders from north to south on the east side and patrol in a clockwise direction.

However, as they near the south border, they all take a shortcut, leaving a blind spot in their patrol right where the Rogues crossed into our neighbor’s territory.

Now Dad was not only furious at us for sneaking out, but he was also pissed off at the Warriors for cutting corners and endangering the lives of innocents.

He called every Warrior not on border patrol to the Pack house, and those on patrol were included through the mind-link.

“As some of you may have heard, three Rogues crossed the west border of Dark Mountain Pack and killed two of their Pack members.
