The Alpha Who Saved Me

Chapter 39

Decker

I decided to go with Holden over to his territory to try and alk some sense into lan, Emery and Emmett's cousin, and the on of the former Beta. He's been butthurt since Holden amed Bo, his best friend, as his Beta, and so when my broth- er offered him the Gamma position, he turned it down. I know ve had discussed this beforehand, that we didn't want any- ›ne with a title that will have a sore disposition, but we need

im to accept the Gamma position.

Gammas are the righthand man to the Beta and in charge of the warriors. The Head Warrior answers to the Gamma, and so on, but most importantly, the Gamma protects the Luna. Me and Asher have yet to choose our Gamma's but it's unani- nous that lan be one of them. Emery is special all the way around and so we want extra protection for her and since lan has always been close to both our mate and her twin, he's the only option for us, and that's how we are hoping to bring him. to see that it would be the right decision for him.

'I just don't understand why lan is being so stubborn,' I say though our mind link as we head over to Hold's territory, 'I mean, he was so easy-going when we were kids, he never had a chip in his shoulder.' Even though we can speak out loud, thanks to the bonds, I still prefer keeping our conversation between us as we let Blaze and Achilles run, in case there are others running around or we get close to patrol.

'I think he just assumed that he would be Beta because his dad was the current Beta.' My brother responds.

'But he knew that the Beta Heir doesn't always get the po- sition.' I feel like a broken record, always repeating myself on this topic.

'Well, hopefully we can get him to see the light. I mean, technically, he will be the Beta to my Beta so...'

I chuckle, 'Yeah, let's see if he sees it that way.'

'Well, at least I have someone in mind; look at you and Ash. Does Emmett or Ayden even have anyone in mind?'

I sigh, 'No, at least they haven't told us, but I did inform Emmett of getting me his list of candidates by the end of the day tomorrow."

'Decker, with this new threat, we really need Emery well protected, or at least with good warriors that will fight for and with her, because we both know that our feisty little Luna won't just sit off on the sidelines.' He chuckles, 'Man, you should have seen her the other day when one of the rogues came at me. She shifted instantly and Kiki was magnificent. I can watch our Luna battle every day, she's that good.'

'Well, let's not wish for that, okay?' I chuckle at my brother' s statement. The last thing I want is to live our lives having to battle every day.
