Chapter 110
“No,” Kelsey said, “but it will be. It has to be.”
When Titus left, Dad called me into his office.
“Liam, she doesn’t leave your sight, understood?”
“Uh, yeah, got it big bro. I’ll guard her with my life.”
“Okay, spill it, what is going on? That felt really intense, and I know you two were doing that bonding mind trick thingy again,” I heard Liam demand as I walked away, and her twinkle of laughter in response, softened the rock that was pressing down on my chest making it difficult to
breath.
Dad closed the door behind me when I entered so we could talk in private.
“Kamen, the Bulgarian Pack Alpha, is insisting on an inquiry to the challenge. He was so certain that Andon would defeat you, that he is in disbelief of the turn of events. Many rumors are floating around as to what happened.”
I gritted my teeth, “Like what?”
“Well, for starters, that Kelsey was faking pain to draw his attention away and give you the break needed to end him.”
“That’s absurd, her hand was bleeding.”
“I know, son, I was there for the front row seat to it all, remember? And it is also being said that I collapsed under your alpha power during the challenge. This is causing quite an uproar with allegations that you and Kelsey have assumed leadership in the pack.” He cleared his throat, “And there a rumor going around that she is a, well, a witch.”
“What?!?!?”
“I know it’s absurd, but if that rumor doesn’t end soon it will lead to a full investigation into her past. Before the killings of female alphas began, they were often called witches. Women of magical powers over other wolves. We need to take this rumor serious and stop it at all costs. Do you understand?”

Chapter 110
“Yes sir.”
“You have your bags packed should they come for her?”
“Yes, but she isn’t going to run, Dad. She’s become very protective of this family and this pack and she is adamant that we can not leave everyone to face the wake of this alone.”
“Kyle, I’m not going to lose you over this. If it comes down to a fight, I need you to take your mate and leave. They come after her, they come after you.”
They come after you, they come after this entire pack. No one will back down from this. I heard her warn me and I knew she was speaking truth.
“Kelsey believes the pack will rise to protect us if it comes to that.”
My father sighed looking far older than he had even one day earlier. “You know they will, but we’re talking a potential war here, Kyle.”
“I think we need to bring in the Pack Council and formally fill them in. If they agree with Kelsey, then we need to hold an emergency pack meeting to prepare our wolves. If they do not, when the time comes I will grab her and go despite her protests. They will not kill my mate without first killing
me.”
Dad nodded in agreement and made a few quick phone calls. Within an hour, the full Pack Council was assembled in his office and Kelsey joined me as we filled them in on what we knew of her past and confirmed to their shock and horror that she was indeed a female alpha.
“This will go to war amongst the packs when they discover what she is, and I do not think Kamen will back down until he has all the answers, including this,” Ambrose spoke up first.
