Fated To The Alpha (Ezra, Katya)

Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 119

Katya POV

I just walked in the front door before I felt hands wrap around my waist from behind. I was so consumed in my own thoughts I hadn’t even realised Ezra was behind me as I opened it making me jump as he pressed himself against me, pressing his face in my hair as he inhaled my scent.

“How was Angie’s family?” He asks, I shake my head.

“Not good, heartbroken ” I tell him just as Mateo walks down the steps, a look of relief on his face before he rushes over and his arms wrap around both of us. I was squished between them as I breathed deeply.

“Thank god your back” Mateo whispers, k!ssing my cheek before doing the same to Ezra. I look up between them.

“Where is my brother?” I ask Ezra, unable to smell his scent anywhere.

“At your old house with your father” Ezra says and I nod.

“You should go shower, how is everyone in the house?” I ask Mateo.

“Most are sleeping some are still out the back”

“I will go shower, what time do we meet the Alpha’s tomorrow?” Ezra says.

“gam” I tell him and Mateo finally moves, allowing us to enter the house and close the door.

“Ok, you two go shower. I will be up soon” I tell them before heading to the kitchen. I make a coffee before going to Ezra’s office. Jasmine and I stopped off at my old house on the way to Angie’s parents. I managed to find an old map thanks to my father hoarding all the paperwork, he even had old payslips from his work from over 1o years ago. The map was slightly outdated but I could fill in the blanks of Jackson’s pack.

It was weird being in the house, I hadn’t been back there since before mum died, and everything was still the way it was, everything left untouched as we searched the basement.

Jasmine was all too happy to help and I could tell she needed the distraction too as we combed through every box before we found the maps. Going to Ezra’s office I empty my handbag of everything, the new contact lenses I brought from the chemist, we had to ask him to drive all the way in town to open it for me just so I could get them, I knew I wouldn’t have time in the morning to fetch them.

Using a stapler and a cup I unroll the map using them to weigh the corners down, before I look at it. It was dad’s old patrol border map. Though the original school had moved to the eastern corner. I crossed out the old school and put a cross where the new one was built with the bunkers, the community centre was next to the training ground which was also not the page and I read the street names before locating it’s position and also marking it on the map.

The packhouse had a safe room, which was on the map but that was specifically for Luna and Jackson’s children. I also knew it had tunnels under

the packhouse as an escape route which we needed to make sure were the first things blocked off. Four tunnels one went to the stadium, another to the school and two more to the forest behind the packhouse. Those needed to be blocked off or points of entry even if Jackson tries to bunker
