Chapter 40

Quinton

“I’m waiting to hear from Thomas. He isn’t answering my phone calls. If he’s ignoring me…” I snarl into the phone.

“Quinton, my pack still isn’t fully recovered from our last battle with Warren. He’s probably still recovering. You said he lost his Beta, right?” Brady asks me.

“Yeah, but that’s no excuse. I told him we’d get his Beta back, but can’t do that unless he answers his fucking phone so we can make a plan,” I growl.

“What do you want to do?” Brady asks.

“I’ve sent some warriors over there to encourage him to answer his phone.”

“So, when we attack, we’re getting the lady doctor, right?” he asks.

“Yeah. Alive. We need her,” I say, scrubbing my face with my hand.

“WE need her? I thought I was getting her,” he says. I have to be careful here. If what Brady and Thomas have said is true, then…

“FUCK! I have to go. Fucking Harold is attacking,” he says, hanging up.

sit back, thinking. I know that Brady will be busy for a couple of hours. I should send warriors to help him, but my bigger issue right now is Warren. He’s too fucking strong. Since my pack is the only one at a hundred percent, I need to keep it that way. Because there’s no way in hell that I’m giving that lady doctor to Brady. He’s just stupid enough to get stronger and then come after me.

There’s a knock at my door and when I look up, I see my son, Quirin, watching me.

“Hey, son. Come in,” I say, relaxing a bit. There’s nothing and no one that I love more in this world than my son.

“Is everything okay, Dad? I heard you snarling,” he says.

Quirin is the future heir of this pack. He’s only twelve, but I’ve been training him to be a warrior since before he got his wolf two years ago. And recently, I’ve started training him to think like an Alpha.

I gesture for him to come stand in front of me. “What do you think we should do with a pack that is getting stronger, an Alpha that is getting stronger and is threatening our livelihood?” I ask him.

“No one threatens our pack,” he growls, in his young wolf’s growl.

O

“That’s right. No one threatens our pack. What do we do when someone threatens our pack?” I ask him.

“We eliminate them. We protect our pack,” he says confidently.

“That’s right. And what do we do if we find their strength, if say, that strength is a person, a she–wolf?”

I watch as he thinks about that. “We capture her and bring her here? Force her to make us stronger while making the other Alpha weaker?” he asks, unsure of his answer.
