We watch as Penny leaves, hearing her tell Jaime about being asked to be our Gamma.

"That went well," Lucas says as the door closes.

"It did. I hope that means that we'll soon have a Gamma couple."

"Do you intend to open it for a challenge?" Lucas asks.

"Yes, we'll have to, but I don't think any of our warriors can defeat her, do you?" I ask.

"No. She's tough, nearly as strong as I am in a fight."

"And she's a smart fighter. I've been watching her since Lucas said you were both interested in her as our Gamma. She's small, but she uses that to her advantage in her sparring," Kinsley

says.

"Did you notice the hickey on her marking spot?" Sophie asks Kinsley, smiling.

"And Jaime's scent all over her," Kinsley says, smiling back.

"Yeah, that's why I said she needed to think about it. He's new here, his sisters are here, and she'll want to stay with him if he decides to leave. They have a lot to talk about. Hopefully, he'll see that this is a pack worth staying in and it will be a non-

"I need to contact Dutton, make sure he's willing to join our fight against Alaric and then we need to include Amelia and come up with a plan. Alaric needs to die, and it needs to happen before Zahn gets here, just in case he's planning to go against us."

"Do you think he is?" Kinsley asks.

I look at Sophie. "It's hard to know for sure. He seemed like he legitimately wanted to bring Jocelyn here to help her, but you never know. It could all be a ruse," she says.

"What's your plan when he's here?" Lucas asks.

"He agreed to have 24-hour surveillance on him, so that's what I m going to do. He goes nowhere that one of us hasn't approved."
