The Alpha's Surprised Mate (Book #1 of Silver Moon Series) novel Chapter 94

Ninety-Three: Step Back

Unknown

I have decided that we are going to lay dormant for a while. We are not giving up; we just need to lay low for a while. It has been a month since we met with Alpha Darrius and his beta, and we have decided to work together. I don’t fully trust him, but Damien does, and I trust Damien. This decision came after we spotted footprints close to one of our main locations. I know they belong to those beasts. They have not found the house yet, mainly because we have it hidden with the help of some magic. Those books that Penthesilea and Phlegyas stole from the witch have come in handy to help with keeping ourselves and the many safe houses hidden. I am still looking for a spell to help cover the bear’s scent, but so far, I can’t find anything. The five of us decided to stay in different locations. We decided this after the beasts figured out the general location where we had been staying. If something is to happen, I don’t want all of us getting caught. Alpha Darrius suggested finding someone already a member of the pack and trying to befriend them to work with us. I agreed with him that getting someone to join the pack would raise suspicion. Alpha Darrius wanted to attack the pack, but I told him not to. I knew his pack would lose. Plus, my daughter is there, and I don’t want anything happening to her. I know that she is well protected, but if someone figures out what she is, they might try to kidnap her and use her or, worse, kill her. I am not taking that chance.

“We have a serious problem,” Ian stated.

I look up from where I am sitting in my office. I didn’t even know that he was here. We have all agreed to stay away from each other and only communicate by phone or email. So I wonder what he is doing here.

“What is the problem?” I ask.

“Alpha Darrius is positive that his pack is being spied on.” He answers.

“How?” I say.
