CHAPTER 45  

“This is ridiculous! You do know that as an Alpha, my time is precious. I have too many things that I need to be doing that sitting here waiting for your Alpha to get here!” I make sure I put enough annoyance into my voice. Trying to buy time so my Beta can mind link his mate and get the newcomers hidden into the saferoom and send someone for Gavin’s vehicle. It’s nice having a Beta that knows you so well that you don’t even need to tell him what to do, he just knows. He sends me a slight nod, indicating that he’s contacted his mate. 

“My apologies Alpha Quinn, but I only do as my Alpha asks me to do.” He wears a smirk as he says this and a few of his men chuckle. 

I turn my back on them and face Gavin, sending him a wink as I start in on him, “Is this how your pack treats their allies, Gavin? What makes your Alpha think that I will submit to him? He is not my Alpha, and I don’t answer to anyone!” I start to pace as I continue,”To think that I was starting to like you! Were you playing me this whole time?” . 

“Please Quinn, don’t be so dramatic, and no, I’m not playing you, but I do feel as though my father has a say in this. He is only looking out for the welfare of his lost pack members.” 

I have to admit that Gavin is a very good actor. He acts as though he’s bored as he talks to me and he’s trying to appease the new female Alpha. We want to make Blue River’s warriors believe that he is with them. The last thing we need is Daniel thinking his son has changed sides. 

As soon as I get the sign from Spencer that everything has been taken care of, I continue, “Like I said, I don’t bow for any other Alpha, and I have work to be done. I’m heading back,” I glance at the head scout, “If you want to send one or two of you men with me, so be it, but I’m leaving now.” Without another word, I let Tala out and we make a mad dash for home. My men follow as well as a few of Blue River’s men, but Gavin stays behind to wait for his father. 

‘All twelve are in the safe room?’ I mind link my best friend. 

‘Yes. I explained the situation to them, and they were happy to hide. Tommy just got back with Gavin’s vehicle as well…’ she stops talking like she has more to say, and yet doesn’t. 

‘What else is there? 

‘Erm, well… Summer gave me a spray. She told me to spray it around the house to help eliminate their scent. She said that it’s the same as what Jasper would use to cover his scent when needed. 

‘I mean, it’s a good idea, but why does Summer have some?’ 

‘She’s the one that always made it for him. She’s into medicine, I guess.’ Cici explains the only way she can. 

‘Hm, I will have to talk to her about it further, especially with these attacks that are happening.’ We are still about ten minutes out, ‘Cici, grab a few other people and have them run through the house. We can’t have a pack house with barely a scent in it, it will be too suspicious.’ 

‘Oh! I didn’t even think about that!’
