Chapter 71

“We’re here,” Eli says, pulling my attention back to my

surroundings. We were at what looked like an enormous

ranch. Fences lined either side of the driveway and I glance at Eli.

“Are you sure we are at the right place?” I ask, this was not what I was expecting.

“Navman says this is definitely it,” he states. Looking out at my surroundings, I see cattle in the paddocks, huge barns, and a massive garage behind the huge three-story house. Halfway down the driveway, I notice the extra eyes amongst the cattle, and two wolves run along the fence on either side of the car, watching us, tracking us and following us to the property..

As we pull up out the front of the huge stone house. I notice a few women looking around.

It takes me all of two seconds to see we are definitely in the right place because the moment I step out of the car; we are surrounded. Three even carried pitchforks. A few others were shifted and they all growl as I shut my door. Eli hops out, glancing around.

“We mean you no harm. We’re looking for your Alpha?” I tell them, putting my hands up. They move around anxiously and I sniff the air. Yet none were dominant females, so I knew none were the Alpha’s Luna.

“Where are the men?” Eli mind-links me.

“No fucking clue…”

“Where is your Alpha?” I ask one woman, who is eyeing us warily. She doesn’t get a chance to answer when the front

door is kicked open. A little old lady walks out in a cotton floral dress and I exhale, thinking she must be the Alpha’s mother. Yet a sniff of the air confuses me when I find she is

human.

I move toward her, only to stop in my tracks when she swings a pump-action shotgun out from behind her back and aims it directly at me, making me grit my teeth and back up. Silly woman, she would hurt herself more by firing it.

“State your business, boy!” she snaps at me. I blink at her. Is she for real? Does she not know what I am, what these women are? Shaking my head, I move toward the steps when the gun goes off with a loud bang. I clutch my ears and growl. Looking up, she had blown a hole in the verandah roof. She cocks the gun, aiming it at me again.
