The Beta Trials by Cooper (Jace & Jordan)

Chapter 17 (Jordan)

After checking on my patrols and sending the ones with bites and scratches to the pack hospital, I send a mind link to my father letting him know the rogues were taken care of. I’ll need to reconnect Jaxon to my pack before I leave so he can use the mind link. ‘Griffin is sending more patrols to watch over Taylor’s land,’ my father tells me.

The whole issue of feral fever in males was because of the limited female population. Or, at
