Ghost Pack

chapter 4

Maggie's POV

    It has been about 3 days since I got to the castle. I have finished cleaning all of the sheets, blankets, old clothes, towels, and rags. I have also picked up all of the trash and took out most of the broken furniture. Everything seemed to be different. Like each room had its own creator. The different bedrooms had difderent looks to them. The living room was now modern. I have spent almost a million dollars in fixing it up. In only a few days. I have a few more things to move but I have to go get food and thing for the house. I have a whole doctors office with nothing in it. I ordered the stuff to be delivered, it should arrive before I leave for the store. I am now in the shower getting all of the sweat and blood off. I had cut myself several times while cleaning. I got out of the shower and dried off. I put on some underwear and a bra with some jeans. I was pulling my shirt on when I heard the knock at the door. I rushed down the halls and the stairs and pull the door open. My face light up with a smile when I saw the delivery man with my stuff. I signed for everything and had them bring everything into the first room and told them i would move them later. After everything was inside I closed that door and turned around. I had 10 big boxes full of bandages, gauze, medication, and a lot of other things that i would probably never use since it was only me. But i wanted it just in case there was a hurt hunter or something on my land. I also had several hospital tables and beds. With different utensils that would be needed to fix someone up. I didnt know why I wanted those since it was only me but something told me to get it. I also got cots, blankets, trays, and such for the dungeon. Once again i dont know why. But no one asked either. Probably cause theres no one to ask...
    I quickly ran to the store and got a bunch of meat and veggies. Honestly got so much I didnt know if all of it was going to fit into my jeep. Luck was on my side when it did.
   I got home and put the food up and started working on the medical stuff. It took several hours but finally had everything in its place. I moved the rest of the things i had ordered to the dungeon and started fixing up the cells with the different things. I placed the food trats I got in the kitchen in their own cabinet. And decided i would go on a run.

  Kyle's POV
   We are a mile away from the land that we had been searching for for a month or so now. We are almost to the finish line.
A few minutes pass and everyone is excited. They know we are almost free. The feeling is so sweet. We were right in the edge and were only a step away from freedom. We all lined up and held hands it had been a terrible month but it was all worth it as we stepped across the line. I looked around and everyone was smiling and jumping around. Everyone was hugging everyone.
"So what now?" Julian asked me as he was walking up. "Yea where do we go from here? What do we do?" Conner spoke up. I hadnt really thought about it. I was just focused on getting here. I looked around and then I heard a loud and deep growl from behind the trees. "Why dont you start with telling me why your on my land?" A voice said with a deep growl. I was shocked and on edge as was everyone else. "We dont mean any harm." I said. A female stepped out and looked at everyone. Scanning each and every one of us. Her eyes lingered on the kids and then her eyes met mine.

Maggie's POV

  I was running through my woods when i caught multiple scents in my land. I decided to go check it out when I heard a voice say "so what now?" Followed by another voice "yea where do we go from here? What do we do?" There were a lot of mubbles and whispers. I let out a warning growl. And i heard everyone shift. I could feel them all tense. They were ready to fight. I quickly shifted and got dressed. "Why dont you start with telling me why your on my land?" I growled out. "We dont mean any harm." A deep voice said after a while. I stepped out and scanned the group. I lingered on the kids seeing how bad everyone looked. Everyone looked so skinny. It hurt so much. I knew that they mush be rogues. But with this many in one spot not killing each other I didnt know what to think. I could take down most of the warriors but not all of them. My eyes finally drifted to the man in the middle. We held eye contact for about 10 minutes. Finally I relaxed. "Alright come with me." I stated. I turned around and started walking off. I didnt heard anyone following me. Thinking they were just nervous i turned around. "Im not gonna hurt you or trap you or anything else. I got enough room for all of you. But if you dont want the help then just keep on going." I said turning around and started walking again after a minute i heard them catching up to me. They always stayed a few feet behind me. Finally the guy that i had a staring contest with came up to walk beside me. I could tell he was still worried that he was sending his people into a trap so I sent him a small smile. A few minutes went by in silence. "Who are you?" He finally spoke. I faught the feeling of being sarcastic and said "Margaret McClellan but you guys can call me maggie." In a voice loud enough for everyone to hear. "Are you a rogue? Or do you have a pack?" He asked i chuckled a little. "You can only be a rogue if you had a pack to begin with. I was born outside of the werewolf world." He looked away taking in the information. While he wasnt looking almost walked into a tree. Right before he collided, i yanked him by his arm closer to me, just barely missing the tree. After stabling himself he started to say thank you. He quickly stopped when the castle came into veiw. Him and everyone else stopped in their tracks. I turned around puzzled. "You are with the king?" Another man said disgust lacing his words. I raised a eyebrow, "there's a king? Well if so I'd like to meet him one day. But no im not." I started turning around and began walking hearing them walking behind me. "I moved here about a month ago. My parents left it to me. They died after i was born. An no don't feel sorry or pity me. Come on in an we will get you all settled in." I finished as I opened the front door.
