Chapter 15
H.C/ W.W
Their tender moment was broken up when Lindzi rushed into the room. She took note of the snuggling couple before casting a cautious look out the door. Biting her lip, she debated on whether to warn them of what was coming or not. After another glance out the door she decided even though Hanna hadn’t been present recently, she did deserve to know that a certain battle was imminent.
“I hate to break up your warm and fuzzy moment but you’ve got problems heading your way.” Lindzi stood guard by the door, glancing towards the elevators at the far end of the hall every few seconds.
“What kind of problems?” Hanna asked curiously.
“The kind that involves a very pissed off father who is intent on bringing his runaway daughter home.” Lindzi explained.
“You told him what happened?” Hanna nearly shrieked.
“No, I didn’t tell him.” Lindzi scowled at her sister. “Word got out and he flipped. I came here first because he had to tie up some business deal before he could leave.”
“Why doesn’t it surprise me that he chose to finish up a business deal before coming to his injured daughter?” Hanna mused sarcastically.
“Look, I just came here to warn you that you have approximately five minutes to get yourself together and ready before he comes in raging like a storm. He called to say his plane landed and he’s on his way.” Lindzi’s eyes flicked towards a silent Will. “And he doesn’t intend to leave without you on that plane.”
“Well then he’ll be disappointed.” Will growled, tightening his hold on Hanna’s hand. She belonged there with him, by his side as the pack’s Luna.
“Take my word for it, my dad won’t let this go. Maybe before he might have accepted Hanna running away but now that she’s been attacked, by rogues nonetheless, he won’t let her stay.” Lindzi scoffed.
“It’s not up to him.” Will gritted out. “She’s my mate which means the only place she needs to be is here. He can’t take a wolf away from her mate.”
“He can if he thinks her mate is incapable of taking care of her.” Lindzi pointed out.
There were no real written down laws in the werewolf community. There were definite rules that were followed like don’t start up wars with other packs unless there is a valid reason and don’t reveal your wolf to a human that isn’t your mate but there was no set of definite laws. However, even if there was no law The Five still existed. The Five consisted of three males and two females that made sure packs stayed peaceful towards each other. If there was tension between two packs they stepped in to resolve the issue before an all out fight broke out. If there was such a thing as a council for the werewolves The Five would be it.
Another issue they resolved was the keeping of mates. Keeping two mates apart from each other was close to a felony when compared to human laws. It was outrageous and despicable. If two mates decided they didn’t want to be together then that was one thing but to deliberately separate the two was like breaking a law. In these rare cases, The Five stepped in to reunite the mates and if necessary, relocate them to a different pack. However, there were special cases when The Five allowed the separation if the pack could prove the male could not adequately take care of the female. Such as the case involving a male that was proven to be abusive towards his mate, The Five allowed the separation stating it was for the female’s safety. While it was extremely rare for them to allow the separation, it had happened before.
