My Secret, My Bully, My Mates by Miss L

“Thank you Skylar. I know that wasn’t easy for either of you.” Alpha Lucas looks at me with sympathy.

I just nod and scrub my hands over my face. “I need to go workout or run or something, Alpha Lucas, what are our orders? I obviously have training to work on,” I say patting the wrapped book on the edge of his desk. “Is there anything else?”

“Warrior Brogen wanted you three to maintain your regular warrior training schedule and for you to focus heavily on Elena’s directions for you. He was not concerned with you being in school,” He rolled his eyes as we both remember Kevin’s suggestion last night, “But it might not be a bad idea for you to have a presence in the school. Those kids love you and seeing you back will motivate them to work a little harder in their own training. We need everyone ready, especially if the fight is coming here.” I nod at him.

“We could do a patrol in the school. I know they aren’t doing regular gym classes now that it’s being substituted with training to fit more time in. Jena could beef up security and monitoring too at the school and around the pack.” I look over at my friend. She still looks like she is in shock, but she makes eye contact with me and nods.

“Yeah. We should really look at all of that since there are so many ways to get into your pack because of the water access. I also don’t think Sky should be a part of the patrol loop. Don’t look at me like that, you know I’m right. Those d*ckheads are after you, you can’t deny it anymore. That is proof.” She points to the box, her fire is coming back. I know how she feels about being seen as a victim and feeling like a helpless girl. It makes her angry and she’s in a mood. “He may have been a backstabbing asshole, but he was the one person outside your team that got close to you. You don’t get to be reckless, you have to be smart. Do what you do best, analyze and give us a plan. Let the warriors do the patrols, you need to lead.”

The three men in the room are just watching us like a tennis match.

“Jena, I don’t want to be stuck here in lock down any more than you do.”

I tilt my head to the side and look around the room. “Well, men
