“Who’s the hottie walking with mom?” Chadwick asked as he stared out my office window. Jared, Wes, and I were in my office discussing what we should do about the lack of attacks since Alpha Blake’s warriors showed up. Chadwick was supposed to be learning. He may not be an alpha wolf but he is still the heir to the pack.
“I’m sure it’s one of her friends,” I told him, turning my attention back to the maps. It doesn’t make sense why there hasn’t been an attack.
I was thinking we should send his men off the pack lands but have them stay close if there was an attack.
“Uhm, Dorian?” Wes stammered.
“Can you guys ogle the woman on your own time, this is important.” I scolded, turning in my chair.
“She isn’t someone you want us to ogle,” he said and I stood up, storming over to the window to see what the hell they were looking at. I was already spread thin and then there was this mess with my mate.
She had gone to Blake’s pack to see her and now she won’t even look at me. So my life felt like it was falling apart and nothing I did seemed to make a difference. I tried to speak with her, to explain everything but I don’t think she heard anything I was saying. She’s hurt and I’m the one who hurt her. But I also can’t get Evelyn out of my mind. My life was a double–edged sword.
“What the hell?” I gasped, not expecting to see my Luna and my mate

walking out of the eastern tree line together. They were walking towards the pack house.

“Dad, do you know who’s with mom? I’ve never seen her before and I would have remembered her.” Chadwick said and I growled. Jared and Wes snickered behind me.
I watched as they both stopped beside an SUV before they embraced each other in a hug. Did I miss something? And why the hell would Lisa speak with her but not me? I know I fucked up, but I thought she viewed Evelyn as competition, not a friend.
“You three get some fucken work done, I need to speak with
I scoffed before storming from my office. What the hell y Luna,”
either one
of them thinking? And why would Evelyn show up here of all places? My father had men everywhere.
Before I exited the pack house, I could hear shouting coming from outside. And then the three I left in my office came rushing down the stairs.
“You are going to want to get out there,” Jared exclaimed and I rushed to the door, running out to find my father–in–law confronting Evelyn with warriors and Lisa yelling at them to stand down.
“What the fuck is going on?” I growled as I rushed to the scene, with the others behind me.
“Dorian, tell them to stand down,” Lisa demanded.
“Daughter, I will not stand down. This bitch is here for the pack and your mate, and I won’t watch as everything that was promised to us is taken away,” her father growled, pointing a gun at Evelyn.
“Mom, what is going on?” Chadwick asked her. I moved in–front of the gun, my chest pressed up against the barrel.

“You will stand down, now,” I ordered and he shook his head.
“I have orders from your father. She will die, and there’s nothing you can do to stop his wrath.” I grabbed the gun and all hell broke out around us. As soon as Evelyn let out a scream, Fang shifted and so did my beta and gamma. Even if I didn’t still love her, if anything happened to her, I knew there would be a war.
I turned to see Lisa kneeling beside Evelyn who was lying on the ground. Chadwick was standing over them, protecting them.
“Your father will hear about this,” Lisa’s father growled before he shifted. He and his warriors took off
“Stop them,” I yelled through the link to Jared and Wes. They took off, with some of my warriors quickly following behind them.
Fang walked over to the others. Evelyn was sitting up now, but she had a deep cut under her left eye. Fang’s tongue darted out to lick the wound.
“Dad, what is going on? Mom, who is this?” Chadwick demanded.
“I’m fine, Dorian,” Evelyn pushed Fang away and he whimpered.
“You aren’t fine, Ryley. We need to get you to the hospital.” Lisa told her, trying to help her to stand.
“No, I just need some ice and my phone. I need to call Blake, he doesn‘ t know that I’m here.” She confessed. She stumbled trying to walk to her vehicle. Lisa and Chadwick helped her as I returned to the pack house to shift. Once I pulled on a pair of shorts, I rushed back out to find Evelyn sitting in her SUV, and Lisa was standing on the outside of the open door.
“Evelyn, why are you here?” I questioned as I approached them. Before

she answered, Chadwick came up and passed her a bottle of water and an ice pack.
“I needed answers. Truthful answers,” she sighed, leaning her head back.
“Ryley, I think you may have a concussion. We should have a doctor look at you , ” Lisa pleaded, and Evelyn patted her arm.
“I’m okay. I’ve been through worse. And I’ll call Blake to pick me up. I didn’t expect to cause so much trouble.” She mumbled.
“Lisa, your son looks so much like you.” She smiled, looking at my Luna.
“He may look like me but he is so much like his father,” Lisa said and they both chuckled.
“Chadwick, this is Ryley. Ryley this is our son, Chadwick,” Lisa introduced them.
“It’s nice to meet you, thank you for the water and the ice pack,” Evelyn said, shaking his hand. It was like I was standing in a dream. What the hell was happening right now?
“I’m going to give Blake a call, so I can get out of your hair,” she mumbled as she reached for her phone.
“Dorian, we didn’t catch them,” Wes informed me through the link. I cursed, knowing I was going to have to tell Blake. We would have to team up to keep her and my son safe.
