Chapter 179: Emotional

Hunter

Lucas told me that Sophie was getting nauseous with the smell of the dead bodies. I had planned to bury them, but there are so many, possibly his entire pack of warriors, that I decide to just burn them. It was faster and thankfully didn’t upset my mate’s stomach any more than before.

Since it seems like Zahn’s entire group of warriors came to attack my pack, I’m worried about the remaining pack members in his pack. Zahn’s pack is farther away from all of our packs, making it open for attack by other Alphas. And, once again, Ezra is closest to Zahn’s pack. So, the next day, while Sophie takes Jocelyn in for her next surgery, I call Ezra.

“Hunter, what problems are you causing now?” he says by way of greeting, making me chuckle.

“I don’t cause problems, Ezra. I eliminate them. But I do have a favor for you and possibly for Margot as well.”

“Hold on, let me put you on speakerphone,” he says. Interesting. Margot’s in his office already. I hope that means things

I continue to get better for them.

“Alpha Hunter, what can we help you do to eliminate a problem,” Margot says, obviously having heard the conversation.

“I’m concerned about Zahn’s pack,” I say.

There’s a beat of silence. “Come again?” Ezra asks.

“I think he sent all of his warriors here and they are now all dead. If that’s the case, his pack is full of potentially dying, or at best, grieving widows and pups. With no warriors and no Alpha, his pack is at risk,” I say.

“Shit!” Ezra says. “You want us to go see who’s left and for me to bring them into my pack, is that about right?” he asks.

He already knows what’s needed. I’m pretty sure he’s just giving himself time to think about how he’s going to do this.

“Those people need help, Ezra,” Margot says.
