The second Lana called, I wanted to turn and run back to the house. To support Briar in this

moment. I didn’t think Briar would hurt Lana even if she did shift, but the last thing I wanted.

was for her wolf to be born out of trauma and fear. Or without a proper guild. I wanted to tell

her before it happened, regardless of the rules of secrecy. Even if she never shifted, I had no

intention of ever turning my back on her.

Unfortunately, I had been called personally by him. Leaving wasn’t an option unless I wanted

to elude what Briar was to me. The truth was, I didn’t trust Kenith O’Neal to protect what I

valued above everything else; he was my Alpha, and that realization rubbed me the wrong

way. He should be protecting her, not trying to give me ultimatums to eventually push her

away. Jake had once told me when I stepped up as Gamma to protect those I cared for by not

letting him know they existed, or how close our ties were, because he would use them against

1. me. It didn’t make sense then. However now it did. Jake had also been not ust my mentor-

but my friend. It hadnt made sense then, but now… I wasn’t taking chances with someone who

I cared for. He was nolonger able to protect her. So, I was keeping up the ruse; only Lana and

Mazzie could be trusted with that. Sure, Martha and Henry must know by now. They had

traveled a similar path in life and most certainly could tell the signs. However, she was their

granddaughter, and they would protect that for her sake. At least I hoped.

Fortunately, Briar’s wolf had relaxed when I spoke to her. I still needed to assess how close to

the surface she now was. The meeting went as expected. He wanted to know why I hadn’t

stepped in when Briar assaulted Miranda. Apparently, she was spinning a victim card around

like it would save her. So I explained that Briar merely blocked and threatened Miranda to

make her stand down, after the Delta hot headidly tried to bash her head in. I further

reminded him of his words. That she needed to be able to stand up to the pecking order, so I

didn’t intervene before I gave him a list of witnesses he could question about the matter that

would prove Miranda’s rendition of the events false.

Miranda was a pathetic excuse of a she–wolf. I also let him know that if Miranda was willing to

go after my seemingly human charge, over something as trivial as her ex kissing his current

charge, mind she knew what my role often consisted of, he might want to rethink her position

or her alignment with the safety of the pack if she were so impulsive to interfere with my, her
