Chapter 64
“We’re not going to knock you out just yet, Alpha Nikki, but I am going to give you a little sedation to see how effective it is and to help you relax.”
“Thank you,” she says.
“You want to tell me what pack you’re from? Who your father is?” I ask, pulling up a chair to wait with her until she goes in for surgery.
“You going to call him, tell him I’m here?” she asks. Her voice is angry, but I can smell the fear again.
“No. This pack is a safe refuge. I’m not bringing she–wolves here to return them to where they ran from. If the other Alphas don’t like it, they can take up with the Alpha committee.”
“Or they can declare war on your pack,” she says.
“Very true. My pack is aware of that and I’m already forming allies to stand with me against the Committee of Alphas. I’m not saying that you have to, or that it’s a contingency of you staying here, but if we are attacked, it would be good to have some ranked she–wolves fighting on our side.”
“I’ll fight with you. I won’t speak for Allie or Letti, but I’ll fight. I refuse to go back.”
“So, who’s your father?” I ask her again.

She looks down. “It’s not my father, it’s my brother, Alpha Alaric.” Alaric is on the Committee of Alphas, a recent addition, and now I know he’s another one against me.
“Who almost caught you, or Allison, I guess?” I ask.
“Alpha Aiden, the fuckhead,” she says, making me smile.
“What’s that look for?” she asks while they do her x–rays. They
brought in a portable machine that is covering her lower body to x–ray her leg.
“I know I’m not old enough to be your father, but I hope when I have a daughter, that she’s like you.”
“A bitch?” she asks as the doctor comes in to look at the x–rays.
“Feisty,” I say, smiling at her.
“Okay Nikki, it looks like we’re ready to get you in for surgery,” the doctor says to her, and they begin rolling her out of the room. I follow along, not wanting her to feel alone. When we get to the surgery room, they open the IV line and the fear that I had started to smell again, begins to fade.
“I’ll be here when you’re done,” I tell her.
“Thanks, Alpha Hunter,” she slurs before she falls into
unconsciousness.
“I want to know if there are any complications and I want to know the minute her surgery is done,” I tell the doctor before heading out.

“It’s going to be a long one, Alpha. It will be the middle of the night before I’m done.”
“I don’t care, I want to know,” I say, looking back at the girl once
more.
“Yes Alpha,” he says, and I walk out, thinking once again about the damage we’re doing to our ranked she–wolves and therefore our future.

I took Letti and Allison inside the packhouse. I felt their fear the moment we stepped in and the room went quiet. Rather than pretend that nothing was happening, I decided to address the pack straight on.
“Everyone, this is Letti and Allison. These are she–wolves who have been on the run, the first to request our assistance. There is one more in the pack hospital getting medical attention, her name is Nikki. I hope there will be more she–wolves asking for our assistance in the near future. Please make them feel welcome and help them with anything they need,” I say before nodding for the two women to follow
“So, what’s most important to the two of you? Food, shower, or bed?” I ask just as Kinsley walks up.
“Hello ladies. I’m Beta Kinsley,” she says, and both girls‘ noses go up
in the air.
“You’re the one who brings the food,” Allison says.
“That’s correct and you read the note that Sophie wrote and decided to

trust us?” she asks.
“Well…” Letti says, looking at Allison.
“They have another girl with them who was injured pretty badly. Hunter took her to the pack hospital,” I tell her.
“Right. So, how about some food?” Kinsley asks them.
“We’re really hungry,” Letti says.
“Yeah, that wasn’t a lot of food for three hungry females,” Allison
says.
“Maybe I need to start leaving more…” Kinsley says, more to herself
than to us.
“Kins, will you help them get food and I’ll make sure we have two rooms ready for them?” I ask.
“Absolutely, follow me, let’s get those bellies filled so that after you shower, you can crash.”
“Why are you being so nice to us?” Allison asks.
“Yeah, really.” Letti says.
