Chapter 106
The door closed abruptly, and it was as if Alpha Nick was never there. Sheridan blinked her eyes, a confused look on her face.
“I saw Nick. I was not hallucinating, right?” She looked around, everything seeming strange. Then her gaze landed on Athena. “Where am I?” Everything that happened earlier, felt like a blur.
“You are in my room. Nick needs to take care of something very important,” Athena said. Sheridan rose to her feet, a slight dizziness swaying her.
“Then I should help him. That is my responsibility.”
Athena helped stabilize her before guiding her back to the bed. “It is. But you have to be marked before you begin to do so. For now, tell me about my grandchild.”
Sheridan stiffened slightly. “Nick told you?”
Athena was slightly dismayed but kept a warm smile on her face. “Were you planning to keep her from me?”
Guilt wedged in Sheridan’s facial features as she responded. “No. I was just afraid because her life was, threatened.”
Athena held her hands and spoke seriously. “I have to see her. There is something I need to give her.”
Sheridan did not think of Athena as a threat, and whatever she wanted to give Daisy would only be good and not bad. But the problem was the journey between both packs. Sheridan was already tired from this one.
“It’s a long drive to my pack. Can it wait?” She asked softly, and Athena pursed her lips thoughtfully. She would have wanted to see Daisy immediately, but it was understandable that Sheridan was tired and also, she had to be marked.
“I can endure a few days. I am patient.”
In front of the pack house, Alpha Nick was met with the same chaos he left behind. “Where is Sherry? Did you find her?” Alpha Nick was faced with Atlas and Henry as soon as he stepped out of the entrance of the pack house.

Chapter 106
Arnold and the others had joined in the search for Charlotte and Tom since Alpha Nick took time to return. The pack members were searching, so it was appropriate to do so.
Even the visiting Alphas had all joined in the search. “She’s fine. She’s with my mom,” Alpha Nick replied to everyone’s relief, with the exception of Henry.
“Are you sure?” He asked, pointing out. “You rejected Charlotte, and she disappeared with Sheridan.”

Alpha Nick sighed. “Go upstairs. Or call her on the phone. It’s not safe for her to come out because she would be the target.”
Atlas frowned imperceptibly. He could never allow his kid sister to be in any kind of danger. “What are you talking about? If this pack is not safe for her, we shall be glad to take her with us.”
Growing slightly irritated from their lack of trust in him, Alpha Nick asked seriously, his expression dark. “Do I look like a man who can’t protect his mate?”
“Not so, but I’m still curious to know how she disappeared,” Atlas insisted on knowing. Alpha Nick understood that his questions were only based on his care for his sister, so he calmed down and replied.
“I will explain, but right now, there are things to do. If you want to help, then join us in gathering the fallen trees.”
He mind–linked the pack members so they could get the information wherever they were. ‘Everyone, get the fallen trees. We have to burn them to get enough charcoal to spread around the borders of the pack. Charlotte
has turned evil and can only be repelled with charcoal until we are able to completely get rid of her.
There was no response, but from their actions and the directions they moved, it was obvious that they got into
action as soon as they received the information.
“Alpha, I don’t think we can train today. It’s already the wee hours of the morning,” Beta Dustin reported, exhausted from packing so many fallen trees. This was the first time for such a request, so there was no
equipment to do the job except for manpower.
Alpha Nick was supervising the gathering of the fallen trees himself and responded, “I understand, but this has to be done. Everyone should get involved.” He went to get the fuel and lighter.
When he got enough trees to start with, he began to light them after pouring the fuel. More fallen trees were
added to the already burning ones.
