Cornelius

The damp was starting to get to his gaggle of humans. All he could hear was coughing and spluttering.

He got a tip-off from one of his sisters; the mother was after him. The damn council probably got her involved while the useless witch chased ghosts. He had to turn these volunteers soon but couldn't be rash with his movements; he must lay low.

Buzz.

He swiftly picked up the awaited phone call.

"Are you ready?" Blackspit asked. There is no time for introductions now.

"Where?" he asked, getting to the details.

"Tonight. The forest, wait until the ritual is complete. Their bond must be broken before you touch her."

"Got it."



Jack

"Alpha," Jack greeted.

"Welcome back. Did your investigation go well?" the young alpha, Dominic, paused in his documents to look up at the old Beta.

"No leads on the old alpha, but the kid knows."

Dominic sighed and nodded, "Tiffany told me his sister contacted her asking for help... So long as there are no signs of his return, they will be safe."

Jack nodded, "Although Lexi isn't out of the woods yet."

"Is the detective being useless?"

"Not anymore, but the last thing I heard was that the vamp is in Pendle. I have a bad feeling, alpha."

He sighed, "We have all felt it here and have prepared. Something is coming. I think we will be the first targets after the coven."

Jack nodded in agreement, "Shall I call the brothers?"

"Already done," Dominic stood from his desk, "Keep your eyes on the detective and the vamp. Call me if you get anything."

"Yes, sir."


Both of them left the tiny hut. Cheryl watched over the pit, and she could see others were sensing something, glancing around, many of them on edge.

"Darling?" Dominic approached Cheryl, "It's time to move them."

She nodded, "I will lead them. Be safe."

He nodded, "You, too. You have more than one to think about, remember? Call me when you get there, and I will send after all of you once it's cleared."

They touched foreheads before she stood addressing half the pack.

"Let's go." She marched forward out of the pack pit.

Some elders and pregnant she-wolves left with the young pups. Over the next hour or so, they would be moving by the coach load to the next pack—where they would be safe... for now.

Those who could access and control their wolves stayed, including Tiffany and her family. She stood there chewing her fingernail. When she went to Lexi for help with her wolf, she noted the smell of another wolf in the home. She thought nothing of it, thinking it was Jack she could smell.

It wasn't until the fight broke out at school that she realised it was her little brother, Alex.

If the old Alpha finds out he has a child, a son, he will be back.

Alphas were possessive.
