Chapter 173: Guards

Penny

‘Penny, Jaime, let’s meet briefly then you can take your positions,’ Beta Lucas says in the mind link.

‘Where are we meeting?’ Jaime asks.

‘My office,’ he says.

I was working with the safe room leads, making sure that everyone had arrived and that they had timed them to under two minutes. There are a few individuals I need to speak to about moving faster, but otherwise, the drill went well.

When I arrive at Beta Lucas’ office, Jaime is already there, as is Beta Kinsley.

“Penny, Luna asked me to make sure the safe rooms have availability for the pups from the Survivor Center. Let’s talk about that before you head over to guard Jocelyn.”

I run some quick numbers in my head. “How many pups?” I ask.

“No more than five.”

“We can fit them, easily, if need be.”

“Perfect.”

A moment later, Brutus knocks and walks in.

He nods at me and Jaime, then looks at Beta Lucas. “We’re expecting an attack?”

“Yes. Alpha Hunter believes that Zahn will attack while he’s gone. We agree, and told him to go, knowing this is our best chance to be prepared for an attack. Alpha told Alpha Zahn that he’d be gone 2-3 days, so I think we’ll be attacked tonight or tomorrow, giving him plenty of time to get Jocelyn far away from here.”

“We’re letting him take her?” Brutus asks, concerned.

“Let me rephrase. Zahn thinks he’ll have plenty of time to get her away from here. We’re going to shut that s** down before it even starts,” Lucas says, making all of us smile.
