Chapter 82: Margot

Hunter

Penny is as good as I expected, and I'm thrilled.

'I think I understand now why you elected her to join us on this run,' Lucas says in the mind link while we run through the borders.

We found an area that needed more protection, more patrols, and Penny did not hesitate to give us her ideas. Good ones. Really good ones. 'She's underage, but I'm thinking of her for the G**a position," I tell him.

'I'll keep an eye on her in warrior training. But she's got good instincts and from what I saw of you sparring with her, she's a smart fighter.' 'Agreed. I haven't told her about the G**a position. I told her she might make herself a Lead Warrior."

'I'd put her in either position, but we need a strong, trustworthy Ga**a, and so far, she's better than anyone else we have in the pack.' I'm glad Lucas agrees with me.

Sophie and I fell into bed late that night, exhausted. For the first time since I found her, I didn't make love to her. Instead, I pull her against me and almost instantly we're both asleep. The next

morning, I make sure to start both of our day with a love and happiness. We don't have much time, but I want to take these moments when I can. Once the war starts, I won't have many moments like these to enjoy.

Lucas and I run a hard warrior training, extending it by an hour so everyone is ready. When that one is done, we switch out with the patrols who missed training because they were working, and Lucas runs them through another three-hour training while Penny and I go to secure the areas of the pack borders where we feel we're weakest.

After that's done, she and I run another route around the pack, sniffing to see if we smell anyone scouting our borders.

By the time I return to the packhouse, I'm already feeling the exhaustion of the morning, and I've just stopped to have lunch when the patrols reach out to me and Sophie.

'Alpha, Luna, there's a Luna Margot here requesting sanctuary."

'I'm on my way,' Sophie says.

'I am as well,' I say, knowing Sophie can't shift any longer. I meet her in the back and shift, letting her get on my back before racing to the place where I can hear the patrols standing guard. When we race up, I see Margot, looking a bit ragged and wearing a shirt she must have found along the way. Whether intentional or not, it's masking her scent. Smart woman.

Sophie gets off my back and I shift, standing behind her but letting her take the lead as I always do with the she-wolves who come to us for protection.
