The Alpha's Surprised Mate (Book #1 of Silver Moon Series) novel Chapter 62

Sixty-One: Job Offer

Dustin

The three of them hang out with us for the day. I like Marcus and Jason. They are actually really cool for werebears. Usually, werebears and wolves don’t get along, but after sitting there and talking with them all day, I felt as if we all got to know each other better. We found out that both of them have a degree in technology. I still don’t fully trust Deklan, but after he got over his fear of being hurt by the girls, he started to explain everything leading up to Zane coming to him to help kidnap the kids in order to get to Mykayla, Kylani, and Mykenzie. Deklan says that Zane feels that our pack took away his father and wants revenge.

“Deklan what is Zane’s last name,” I ask.

“I don’t know he never said that, but one of my coven members did some digging on him and found that his grandmother’s last name was Navarro.” Deklan replies.

I felt a knot form in my stomach when he said that last name. He has no idea what that name means and the history behind it. That family was supposed to be wiped off the planet. How in the fuck did any of them survive? I look at the guys, and we all know we need to talk to Dimitri as soon as possible. Shit just got serious, and with them back in the picture, it just took it up a notch with how serious the situation is now. I am trying not to give off any vibes so as not to attract suspicion from Mykenzie and Kylani. I don’t need them going after these assholes by themselves. I sent a mind link to Nate and tell him to get a hold of Dimitri. We have to come up with a plan on how to handle this. We might have to include Marcus, Jason, and Deklan as well. I want to talk with Dimitri before we tell anyone else the story. I am positive that Marcus is Leah’s mate and Jason is Alexis. I feel sorry for Jason; Alexis is going to be a handful trying to keep her from hurting herself by being so clumsy. The girls decide that this is not as interesting as they thought, so they leave. Once they leave, I turn back to Deklan.

“Are you sure about the last name?” I ask.

“Yes, does that name mean something?” He says.

“It does, but I need to speak with someone before I can tell the three of you. I am not trying to hide anything but I need to make sure certain details can be revealed.” I explain.

They nod their heads in understanding and decide that it’s time for them to head back home. I walk them to the front of the packhouse to find all five of the animals out front. I roll my eyes. This is just the girls making sure the guys know they are watching. I do find it funny cause the animals are just laying there as if they have no fucks to give. Which I guess they don’t; I mean, who or what would attack them? The answer is absolutely no one unless they have a death wish. I watch as they drive away. I look over and see Leah watching the car leave. She is hidden in the trees, and if you didn’t look hard, you would not even notice her. I go back into the packhouse. I go to my office to find Brighton sitting on my leather couch.

“You know that Marcus and Jason basically live in a hotel.” He says.

“ No, I didn’t know that, how’d you find out,” I ask

“I did a bit of digging myself to see who we might be aligning ourselves with.” He tells me.

Hmmm, we have an empty cottage on the other side of the territory that is not in use. It is actually the old packhouse. My father built the packhouse I lived in when he was Alpha. He didn’t like the location of the previous one because it was so far away from the others. The new packhouse is in the centre of the territory. I think the old one would be good for two werebears. I make a phone call to a buddy of mine that remodels houses. I tell him what I am thinking, and he says that we should include Marcus and Jason so that we can get their opinion of what they like and how they want it set up. I agree. I give Marcus a call and ask if he and Jason can come to my office at work tomorrow for a meeting. He asks if he needs to pick up Deklan, and I tell him no. I let him know that this is separate from the other issues. He understands and lets me know that he and Jason will be there around 11:00 am tomorrow.

Mykayla and I leave for the office the next day. When we get there, we go to our separate offices. I sit down to get to work. Nothing big has been happening here. I hear Mykayla come in, and I notice she looks a little pale. I hope she is not getting that stomach shit that is going around. I think one of the kids brought it home from a birthday party they went to.

“Hey beautiful, are you ok?” I ask.

“Yeah, just tired.” She answers.

I sent a mind link o the pack doctor, letting her know that I need her to look at Mykayla, and she told me to stop by later today or tomorrow.

“We are going to go see the doctor later today. You look pale baby and I am not taking a chance with that stomach bug going around.” I tell her

She gives me a smile knowing that it would be useless. I will not take a chance with my mate. It has been three weeks since I asked her to marry me, and I am beginning to think she might be carrying another pup. I noticed a very mild change in her scent over the last three days. Her normal sweet coffee with a hint of coconut scent has changed as I get a faint hint of almond mixed in. We are sitting there when there is a knock on the door. I tell whoever it is to enter and walk Marcus and Jason. I get up, walk over to them, shake their hands, and tell them to sit down.

“I asked you two here to discuss possible living arrangements. Before you two get offended, hear me out. I know it would be weird for you two to live on our territory, considering the history between our two species. I am suggesting that you two think about this offer. There is the old packhouse that we do not use and has been sitting empty for years. I was thinking that the two of you could use it as a place to live and a place to do your tech stuff. Also, I am offering both of your positions in this company as our main tech guys. I don’t have anything duper high tech and have been looking for someone or a company for a while. I trust you two and think you would be a good fit for the position for this company and for the pack. Please think about it.” I explained.

They both look at me with a bit of shock. I hope they don’t take my offer the wrong way. I can see that they want to say something, but out of nowhere Danniylla, Alexis and Jailynn are in my office. Fuck they have been in another fight, and this one is bad. Alexis’s ankle is swollen and already turning black and blue. Jailynn is holding her arm, and I can see blood running down the side of her neck. Danniylla is holding her side as blood is seeping through her fingers, and she is staggering like she might have been hit on the head. I can’t see an obvious wound. I have a feeling that they are going to have lots of bruises show up tomorrow. I instantly get worried because I have no idea where the other four are. I can only guess how bad they are. Jason is on his feet in seconds and at Alexis’s side, picking her up. Marcus picks up Jailynn, and I sent a mind link o Nate to get to my office now. I make a couple of calls to let everyone know that we have an emergency and that Nate, Mykayla, and I have to leave now. Nate walks smiling till he sees Danniylla, and he is at her side instantly. We all leave through my personal elevator. I don’t need everyone seeing these three in this condition. We rush the girls back to the pack hospital, and the doctor is there waiting. I see that Donte, Tarkel, and Rye are there. They don’t look happy. I look at them, and their faces darken even more as they see that we are carrying Alexis, Jailynn, and Danniylla. The doctor has us take them straight to some rooms to get started on taking care of the girls. Mykayla stays with the girls. We walk back out to the guys.

“Are they all here?” I ask

“No, the only other one is Leah,” Tarlek says.

I look over and see Marcus’s face darken, and I can tell he wants someone's blood for this.

“How bad is she.” He asks.

“One wrist is twice the size it should be and black and blue. She also has a large slice down from her shoulder to her hip. It looks like a claw. Apparently, she won’t need stitches. She must have been moving away when it caught her.” Donte tells us.

Oh yeah, Marcus is pissed. I feel the same way.

“What about the other three,” Nate asks.
