Justice

*15 years later*

We stood around the table on July 27th as we did every year since I was born. The only thing is I don't remember why. All I know is Daddy makes us have dinner with the beta, delta, gamma, and their families along with Uncle Rocky and his family to discuss something. "Please have a seat," Momma said and we did. I zoned out as Daddy started talking and picked at my food. Axel bumped me and nodded towards Sam, the beta's son, who was staring at me. I rolled my eyes and looked at my father.

"Daddy," I sighed under my breath, knowing he would hear me. He looked at me and raised an eyebrow. "Can I go do my homework?"

"I thought you said you finished it?"

"I need to get ahead 'cause me and Axel want to go to the pond this weekend and I don't want to have to rush back to do homework," I said, hoping he'd let me go. He looked at Momma and she frowned.

"No," he shook his head. "Finish your food."

"But Daddy-" he stood up and glared at me.

"My answer is no. You don't seem to understand how important this is." I stood, confident from my alpha genes, and glared back.

"No I don't. I don't know why but every year you seem to be so selfish to waste time doing this conference instead of celebrating our birthday!" I snapped, gesturing to Axel who looked at his plate. Everyone was silent as they all looked at my dad.

"You have a brother," he murmured.

"No dib, Sherlock! I was there when Axel, Tyler, and Brody were born."

"An older brother," his eyes flashed. "He was kidnapped the night you were born and we still haven't found him. How do you think I feel when I failed to protect my first child and then I have more to stress about? This "conference" is a meeting about how we can avoid another break in. This "conference" happens because I love all of you so much I can't bear to lose any one else. This "conference" happens today because this is the full moon. This is when the rogues are uncontrollable. I forgot about that fifteen years ago but I will never forget again. This "conference" happens because I am protecting us from the people who want to kill me." He sat down. 

"What are you saying, Dad?" Axel spoke up.

"The pack house is surrounded by rogues right now as we speak."
