“It sounds like her father has auctioned her off to the highest bidder,” Ezra says on the video call We’ve been having Alpha meetings every few days to check in on the status of Dutton finding Alpha Alexandra. A couple of days ago, he found her. She’s still at her father’s pack but it sound like it won’t be that way for long.
“What the… frick,” Hunter says, changing his word at the last minute. Nearly all of us have a pu in our laps while we talk.
“He AUCTIONED her?” Jake asks, looking appalled.
“I don’t know all the details, but Margot is digging into his finances. It looks like Alpha Alexander and his Alpha heir, Aaron, have bankrupted their pack and since no one has claimed Alexandra as their mate, he’s auctioning her to the highest bidder.”
“No wonder there are still so many she-wolves on the run. What a disgusting abuse of power, Kayce growls. It would probably be louder, except Brianna is standing in his lap facing him. When he growls, rather than look scared, she laughs and grabs onto his hair, doing some bouncing thing while he holds her steady. “I would never, ever do anything like that to you, my beautiful daughter,” he purrs at her, making her laugh her sweet baby laugh again.
“Right, so I’m guessing we’ll need to be ready to fight. Whoever ‘bought’ her won’t be happy that she’s gone, and her father and brother obviously won’t be happy that their only commodity is gone,” Ezra says.
“Where’s Dutton now?” I ask.
“We haven’t heard from him since he told us that he found her. That was two days ago. I think he’ s probably close to getting to her, but we have another problem. The stress and strain of all of this is taking its toll on Tiffany and Tammi,” Ezra says, looking off to the side. When he leans forward

and lowers his voice, I’m guessing he was making sure that he his door was closed, and he could. keep this private.
“Tammi is the gentler of the two, softer, quieter, and this has been hard on her. But Tiffany is not only suffering because of Dutton’s absence, she’s also trying to take care of her sister and by my assessment, she’s suffering more. I had to call Dr. Caspian yesterday because I thought she’d gone into labor. Turns out it was Braxton-Hicks contractions, but she’s started spotting. Dr. Caspian put her on bedrest, which is obviously not ideal knowing they’re about to get Alexandra and be chased by multiple Alphas,” Ezra says.
“One of us can come get her, or both of them,” Lucas says.
“I’m closest to your pack, Ezra. I can come get them,” Kayce says, fighting to talk as Brianna tugs on his lips.
“I don’t think they’ll go. Margot and I, and even Luna June, talked to them, but both are refusing to leave without Dutton.”
“I understand that. I wouldn’t want to leave my mate either,” Nikki says. I’d been so focused on the meeting and Rory, that I hadn’t heard her sneak in.
She picks Rory up and then sits in my lap, joining the call.
“Hey, Nikki,” everyone says.
“By the look on all your faces, I’m guessing the news isn’t good,” she says. I quickly fill her in while the others talk about plans to protect our borders.
“What about your borders, Ezra? You’re out there by yourself. Do you need us to send warriors to your pack?” Amelia asks him.
“Jocelyn agreed to let us begin patrolling the area on her land, so Kayce and I already have a border set up between us while we wait for the sale of the land to go through, so the eastern side of our territory is secure. However, if they run through the western side and Elias’ old pack

“They’ll run right into my pack,” I say.
“Or mine,” Reese adds. “I don’t have any warriors to spare at the moment, since we’ve started staking out the mountain trails. Not to digress, but any news on the sale of that land, Nikki?”
“Jocelyn has presented the owner with a very nice offer. He hasn’t immediately declined, so we’re waiting.”
“I’ve got some warriors, but I’ve got a large portion of my warriors patrolling the area between Dutton’s and Jake’s packs, helping to protect that side of the mountain until we have something more permanent in place,” I say.
‘I
“I’ll send some of my warriors to you, Ezra. Or perhaps I should send them to Robin’s pack?” Amelia asks.
“Send them to Robin. If things happen as quickly as I’m expecting, you’ll need the warriors in your area.”
“What about the twins? If things are going to happen as quickly as you’re saying, they will become a hindrance. Dutton won’t be able to move fast with them, especially if Tiffany is as delicate as you say she is,” Nikki says.
“I’m open to any ideas you may have Nikki. Margot and June haven’t been able to make any progress with them,” Ezra says.
wrong I smile, ducking my face and kissing my mate’s shoulder. Margot and June are taking the approach with the twins. I’m sure they’re being understanding and gentle with them. My mate, however, won’t hesitate to give them the hard truth.

“I’m positive they’ll be ready to go by this evening,” she says, standing up and putting Rory back on my lap. “If you’ll excuse me, I have a call to make.
I watch my mate walk out, smiling when she turns to wink at me.
“Damn, I love that woman,” I murmur.
“She is quite the force,” Reese says, not bothering to hide his smile.
We finish making plans to protect our southern borders from whatever attack is coming our way before asking if anyone has seen or heard from Alpha David or Koden. No one has heard anything.
“I feel better knowing that the western border is protected now. Thank you again, Alpha Robin for assisting with that while Alpha Dutton is away,” Miles says. Their pack is already short on warriors because of the ones Dutton took with him and now they are helping to patrol the
mountain.
“Excuse me one moment,” Ezra says before telling whoever is at his door to come in.
“Excuse me, Alpha. My sister and I have decided that it would be best for our mate if we moved back to the safety of the northerns packs. We don’t want to go too far, but Luna Nikki said we could come to her pack and Alpha Kayce would come pick us up,” I hear Tammi say.
“I think that’s a wonderful idea, Tammi. When will you be ready to go?” Ezra asks her as I smile. I see shock on Jake and Miles’ faces at how fast Nikki was able to convince the twins to move.
“We’re packing now, Alpha,” Tammi says.
“I’ll get an estimated time of arrival from Alpha Kayce and let you know,” Ezra says.
“Thank you, Alpha,” Tammi says, and I hear the door close just as my door opens.
“Damn your mate is fast,” Miles says appreciatively.

I smile as Nikki walks over and picks up Rory again, sitting back in my lap. “All handled. You can head over whenever you’re ready, Kayce,” she says.
