Chapter 102: Sophie's Lament

Hunter

As soon as I got off the phone with Erza, I call Carter and conference Kayce in.

"Hunter, I'm guessing there's a problem?" Kayce says.

"Ezra went to check on Owen's old pack today. He took Margot with him, and they came across what he called scout trails. He gave me general coordinates as to where they are, but he said it looks like they spread out to all three of our packs."

Kayce growls low in his chest. I understand the sentiment very. well. My mate is pregnant too and the thought of anyone. coming after her and my pup had my hackles up the moment that Ezra told me what he'd found.

"I think we need to include Dutton and Robin on this call," Carter says. "If Alpha Ezra says the trails were headed in our directions, it could be one or both of the packs in our area." "That's a very good point, Carter, give me a moment and I'll try. to conference them in," I say.

Once I've gotten the other two Alphas on the phone, I tell them what I told Kayce and Carter. Both of them snarl, just like Kayce did. I know from experience that if their mates aren't yet pregnant, it's only a matter of time.

"I'm going to check it out, but I can't cover all of the packs," I -begin.

"I'll join you," all four Alphas say at once.

"Good, that's what I was hoping. If they are checking out our packs, mine may not be the first one that's attacked. I expect Joshua will attack me, but we still have Aiden and Alaric who are a risk. And we don't know if they will plan a unified attack, or if they will attack separately."

I give everyone the coordinates, and call Lucas into my office, letting him know.

"I'm leaving you in charge of the pack. I have no idea what we'll find or how long I'll be gone, but I want to know where they've been and what they've seen in our pack before I come back. Keep the patrols tight and at current scheduling capacity. I know it's tough on the pack, but it's better than getting
