My Secret, My Bully, My Mates (skylar) by Miss l Free novel Chapter 70

“We were too busy being caught up in ourselves.” Mateo huffs.

“Training, becoming the next leaders, the idea of being in power is all we focused on.” Oliver adds on, not raising his head.

“She has done more to protect pack members than we ever have.” Dakota whispers.

“She is making the tough choices and defending those who need it regardless of what happens to her.” I finished. “She asked us not to do anything, said if we try to protect her now, it makes her look weak, but we can’t just stand by and let this keep happening. She may not want help, but is there anything we can do to make this end? These bullies have to be stopped. No one should be able to openly harm pack members for no reason.”

“Well, as bad as this situation is, for the first time, you boys are thinking like the leaders you are meant to be. Let's think through this and see what we all come up with. I do have a few things that I can’t avoid today, but let’s get back together tonight. And Mateo, we will discuss your request to have her moved, it has to be her choice though, I will not force her into anything she doesn’t want.” My dad says

“Where is Sky now?” My mom sniffles out.

“Home probably, holed up in her room. She used a ton of energy last night. She’s fast as f*ck and has the endurance to back it up and then she shifted on the fly, mid run. Did any of you know she could shift?” Mateo asks, he’s taken to running his hands so aggressively through his hair it’s standing completely up like a blonde Einstein. He glares at the adults who all look stunned except for my mom. Of course she knew about Sky shifting.

“We’ve been working on a fast shift. Females, especially ranked females and female warriors, tend to be targeted and a slow shift can get you killed. I didn’t know she could do it mid run though. That girl is something else.” Mom finishes in a whisper and smiles for the first time since she entered dad’s office this morning. Beta Daniel just huffs. He will never see past his rage at losing his mate and it's a shame, both of his kids are amazing.
