Dan's planning something. Something he knows I won't like. He thinks I'm in the dark but all I could think about while I packed yesterday was the panicked look on his face. This is about more than him wanting to tell off Cat for not telling him, he's going after my mother's pack. I told him to leave it alone and the fact that he is blatantly going against my wishes and hiding it from me is angering me to no end. He and Phil keep leaving the room to "discuss travel arrangements" I want to confront Dan but what if he's not what I thought. What if this ends up being like my old pack? I don't think Dan would do anything to hurt me, but I also thought he wouldn't lie to me. I don't know what I should do, I can't exactly escape him if something goes wrong he rules the United Kingdom. There's nothing at my old pack for me to escape to. Maybe I should just talk to him but what if he really is a cruel jerk. If Laurel would leave Sam alone for five seconds and help me that would be great. Nope my own wolf has to leave me in the middle of the scariest decision I've ever had to make. Maybe I'm overreacting maybe he's not attacking to ignore me maybe he's trying to uphold my honor and seek vengeance on those who destroyed my past. Though I still need to stop him. Everyone in my mother's pack is innocent except for her. Not to mention that if Dan destroys my mother I'll be forced to take over as Alpha and that would mean leaving Dan, I can't do that. I also can't tell him that I know. Maybe they won't go through with it but if worst comes to worst I'll confront him. Dan cares, I know he does but he's letting his need to protect me overthrow his instinctual desire to respect my wishes as I respect his. I think he's noticed that I'm fretting over something because he's been watching me all day with a look of befuddlement. "Don't worry love. Your mother's not going to know you're in town you'll be perfectly safe." I nod and fold myself into Dan's embrace. He doesn't know that I know maybe he'll change his mind on his own. I push away my worries and melt into Dan's hug, I trust Dan and it does me no good to fret if I'm not going to do anything about it anyway besides Dan has proven to me several times that he doesn't want to hurt me and that he won't judge me. I can trust Dan with my life and I am trusting him with my life as I don't know what my mother will try to do to me if she finds out I'm close to her pack grounds with my mate. Here's hoping this goes well and that Dan doesn't do something we'll both regret.
