“I’m not going to hurt you and you’re not going to hurt me. I know you don’t like this method but I think the benefits are far greater than the risks. Damian and Parker I want you scoring offensive tactics this time. Patrick has already scored him once so this will be good practice for the two of you Patrick, you can choose to include Dominic if you wish but I need you to score defensive tactics. I’m hoping we don’t have to do this again as it is insanely difficult for him to go through.”

‘Which is why you asked us to prepare for a mod 72.

Angela speaks in my head. I look her way, in her eyes as the only recognition of her private statement.

“Please alpha. I can’t do this.”

“I need you to talk.”

He shakes his head hard, going silent as he does.

“Take a seat for a few minutes as we get things cleaned up then we’re going to head over to the annex.”

He sits in his seat but he’s nearly back to the panicked state he was in before I was forced to play his father’s game. I allow everyone time to clear their own plate and clear off the food. We don’t normally deal with the food but I had the forward thought to give my normal help, Amber, the rest of the night off after she put dinner on the table.

It only takes a few more minutes to clean everything up. The girls have decided that they want to

come. They have always enjoyed watching me in a good sparring match and to see Cole in action

seems to be a treat they don’t want to miss even though Cole is desperate to avoid it. As difficult as

what he says will be to explain to them my hope is that having the girls there will give him a higher desire to fight blacking out. I have no doubt that he will not hurt them.

Lucas asks me through the link if he could come as well. I give him permission but only as long as he stays silent and out of the way. He can help his brother watching offense even though he won’t be given another opportunity to score prospects for two years.

It takes me some time to convince him to get up but once he stands from his seat, Cole starts

making his way to the west wing with me following behind him. Everyone else will start over to the

annex shortly.

Once again the young man is eerily silent as he makes the five minute walk over. As Angela mentioned, the annex has cleared out with only Julie and Jessa inside upon our arrival. I’m shocked when Cole turns and tries to run out the door less than ten feet inside the building.

I can’t do this alpha.

He whines again as I wrap my arms around him.

“Yes you can. It’s going to be similar to what we did before, only this time I can swing back

I explain gently as I rub the back of his head.

“No alpha. Jessa’s here. I hurt her badly last time I was angry. I can’t do that again.”

“Yes, Jessa has a dark past she has to work through as well but she needs to know the type of stuff you’re dealing with, both past and present. We will support her the same as we will support you through this difficult time. We need to know what your father has been doing to you for the last week or longer.”

He whines hard but I know he’s relented to what I have set him up to do. I give him as much time as he needs in my arms, slacking my hold on him only when he starts lifting his head.

“Head to the supply closet with me, I’ll hand you your pads for the waist up.”
