Chapter 41
Holden
"So, you're saying that not one person is coming to mind when you think of a Gamma?" I ask Emmett.
"I wouldn't say that," he scratches the back of his head, "I do have someone in mind, but I don't know how you would feel about it."
"Do you think they would be good for the position?" I'm becoming annoyed with his vague answers already and I just want to shake him until he spits it all out.
"Well, yeah. They have the knowledge of the Gamma posi- tion, and their father was a Gamma himself."
I squint my eyes, "Was a Gamma or still is a Gamma? You' re not talking about Leera Meeker, Cam's daughter, are you?"
His chuckle is a nervous one as he slightly smiles, "The one and only."
I think about this because I know that Leera, Cam's adop- tive daughter, has been training with the warriors for years. She's my age and still hasn't found her mate, but I have to say, I've seen her train and she's just as good as the male warriors, if not better than most of them. She's helped Cam out with some of his duties as Gamma and has even been on the spe- cial guard team who protected my mother. She's definitely someone to look into.

"What made you hesitate on bringing Leera up right
away?" I ask the Beta, "I think she would make a great Gam- ma."
"You do?" He asks surprised, "I thought that maybe be- cause she's a female, you wouldn't want her as a candidate."
"How shallow do you think we are?" I laugh, "I remember a few times where Leera practically whooped my ass growing up just for teasing her! I would choose her over many of the males here, and Emery respects her."
I see that the Beta gives a sigh of relief, "Well, then I want to nominate her, because I trust her explicitly."
Again, a squint my eyes at him, "You're not fucking her, are you? I'm only asking because it can be a huge mess having her be the Gamma if you two have a lover's quarrel."
"No! It's nothing like that. Not that I haven't tried but...I'm not her type if you know what I mean."
My eyes widen, "No shit?! Well, that explains why I've nev- er seen her date before." I chuckle.
"I guess I will talk to her and offer her the position. With any luck she will take it and you guys will only have Asher's territory left. Has Ayden had any luck yet?"
"I'm not sure. Asher went to visit his grandmother and I think he plans on talking to him as well. With this new threat, I want to have any and all protection in place." I explain, "But hey, I'm going to go find your sister, and I want you to head over and talk to Leera right away."
"Yes, Alpha!"
I do.
"Fuck off with the Alpha shit, already!" I growl but I grin as
"Whatever you say, Alpha." The little fucker takes off be- fore I can punch him in the arm.
"The patrols are sure that the Shikari are out there with
the rogues." My mate states.
"What is going on, what did you see?" Decker questions, an anxious look of his own crossing his features.
"We never saw the Shikari in the vision," I tell him, "The rogues are there, but the hunters are not, and the rogues will litter the ground by the time this ends, only we couldn't see how it ends because everything went blank; like there was nothing more to see."
"They're using wards to cover themselves; they know we have a Seer." Ledger, states this from behind us.
When we turn, all of our parents are standing behind us, ready for battle. My mother hands me a piece of paper, "When the time is right, the four of you need to chant this."
I glance at the piece of paper and read the words before handing it to Emery, "What is this?" She asks my mother.
"That is the spell that your mother and I used to take out the Shikari last time. We've researched and we've added a lit- tle more to it, making it, so when the Power of Four chant it, it will end every single Shikari who has ill will towards others. Unlike when we did it, it only took out the ones that were at- tacking us. You gave your mother the power to use that day. It's the bloodlines, your bloodlines; they're the only thing that will put an end to these hunters."
I look at my mate and my youngest brother as they glance back at me, and we all three nod together. All of a sudden, we hear thunderous paws racing across the dirt and look up to see a blazing wolf skid to a halt right in front of us. My brother is magnificent to look at in his wolf form, especially since he's gotten his powers and the fire blazes around him as he runs.
Shifting back into his human form he stands with his hands on his hips, in all of his naked glory and grins, "Are we doing this or what?"
Thank you so much for reading...I hope you enjoyed these chapters! =)
