Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond novel Chapter 592

~ Jace ~

Josie, Knox, Jaxon and I all make our way over to the pack gates.

The pack was in celebration mode but it doesn’t stop the new alphas from wanting to check the security of the pack. When it comes to the safety of the pack, you never truly switch off.

Being an alpha isn’t a job, it’s a an all encompassing lifestyle until the day you die. Even when you pass the torch on, as Mum has now done, I doubt she’ll ever truly switch off.

Who would be at the gates that hadn’t pre-arranged their visit, and even more concerningly…why did they give the guards the slip.

Who were they, and what were they doing here.

Spies?

Had the White Moon pack heard of the death of the White Wolf’s sister, had they sent someone to spy on this pack, to feed back information…

I could sense Jaxon was thinking the same. Why else would they suddenly disappear.

As we reach the guards on the gates, Josie and Knox move closer towards them, wanting key information that could help identify the stranger probably now circling the borders for a weakness.

A sigh escapes me, I can see now that Mum was right to improve the security details here. That she put the necessary measures in place not because she wanted to, but because she had to.

“A male, alone…apparently.” Knox grunts out as he and Josie walk back towards us.

“You think there are more?”

“If there are they are keeping far back. I can only feel one on the verge of the borders, not an army.” Josie shrugs out, her eyes already bleeding out to the orangey red colour of her wolf’s.

“You want us to split up and search past the borders?” Jaxon offers out.
