Chapter 107
I walk to the desk area and set the food down, hearing both women’s stomachs growling. If Hunter thinks I’m thin, then he hasn’t looked at these two closely enough. As I look around, I see that the clothes that have been brought for them are still sitting in the bag by the door, untouched.
When I turn back, the women are staring at me wide–eyed.
“What’s going on?” I stand facing them, clasping my hands in front of me and keeping my voice soft. Both women are giving off the vibe of being frightened wolves, ready to bolt at the first sign of trouble.
“Are you sending us home?” one of the
one of the twins asks.
“I’m sorry, before I answer that, I can’t tell you two apart by your looks. But your scents are just different enough that I could. Which sister are you?”
They look at each other, as if deciding whether or not they want to tell me. The one sister nods and the other looks back at me. “I’m Tammi.
Tammi smells of vanilla and orange, so Tiffany must have the vanilla and lemon scent.
“Tammi, I have no intention of sending you home unless you want to go. Hunter and I offered you refuge so you wouldn’t be on the run, so you could have food, shelter, clothing,” I say gesturing around the room with each word. “So, why are you not taking advantage of our

hospitality?”
The girls look at each other again. I call them girls, but I’m not sure if they’re still underage or not. It’s hard to tell with their wide eyes and their gaunt faces, their clothes hanging on their small frames.
“We don’t have any money,” Tiffany finally says.
“And?” I ask, unsure why that matters.
“And we can’t pay for this,” Tammi says, gesturing to the food and the clothing.
“I didn’t ask you to pay for this and I don’t expect it,” I tell them.
“But then we’re just parasites on your pack. Why would help us?”
“Okay, well first, I don’t know who told you that you were parasites on our pack or any pack, but that’s not true. And I’m helping you because I was on the run too. I know what it’s like and my mate and I are working to change things. While that happens, the she–wolves on the run need a safe place where the Alphas and other ranked wolves can’t hunt you down.”
They look at each other again. “What do you want from us?” Tiffany
asks.

join our training class in the morning, get to know our pack members, talk to Nikki and Letti. I’m not sure if Allison is going to be here long enough for you to get to know her, but if you came out today, you’d get to see her. Talk to them. We haven’t asked any of them for anything, other than if they choose to fight, we’d like that. We believe a war is coming, after yesterday at the committee, I definitely think there are some Alphas who intend to wage war against our pack, but it‘ s not a requirement. You can do as much good inside a safe room keeping others calm as you can on the battlefield. You’re Betas, the warriors and omegas will look up to you.”
The girls look at each other again and frown. “You’d let us fight?”
“Let you? Umm, that would be your choice, not mine.”
They look at each other again. “We weren’t allowed to train in our pack.”
“Well, you are here. My mate still has me sparring with him even though I’m pregnant.”
“YOU’RE PREGNANT?” Tiffany asks, jumping to her feet.
I take a step back, not sure of her intent. My hands instinctively going to my stomach in a protective gesture. “Yes.”
“Sorry, sorry…it’s just…our Luna didn’t have a pup for years. Our mother only had us. She was never able to get pregnant again,” they tell me. “But you’ve only just found your mate. How are you already pregnant?”
“Well, besides the biology of how you get pregnant, I believe that it
