Heavy tension permeated the air as the allied alphas sat at their monthly meeting held on Oakmoon territory. Lightmeade and Blood Moon packs were blacklisted for violating were laws as well as human laws. Lightmeade also failed to honor the blood oath he'd made with Raven at the Alpha Assembly leading to investigation and sanctions against his pack. He now had it out for Blackhawk pack. After Lady Ailyn made her report from her visit, Blood Moon pack was added to the list which now had six packs including Sloan's home pack, Greystone. Two other packs were on probation.
The bodies of the kidnapped weres and the witch were found by humans. They were council members and had been kidnapped on their way home from a council meeting. The bodies were mutilated in such a way it was determined the attacks were done by weres and it was still to be determined what the motive was behind it.
One of the weres was from Frost Moon pack, a pack known for having mystical gifts. According to Bunny and Minerva, the elder had the gift of foresight. The other were was from Whitebeard pack and was a soul speaker. The witch, they were told, had the gift of time. They were working tirelessly to discover what these members had in common that made them targets. Everyone was on edge and eager to find the culprits responsible.
Although their mates worked closely together and they often spoke on the phone, the alpha-subs hadn't all been together since the treaty signings. The youngest sub's birthday was coming up in a week. Since their alphas were together for a meeting, they tagged along and decided to go to the mall to shop and catch up.
Chevy, Bunny, and Talon walked behind the rest as they ran in and out of stores. Verde ended up with at least one toy from every toy store in the three story mall. Rico embarrassed Erion by dragging him into every lingerie store making him try on sexy lingerie for his upcoming birthday/mating night. Talon nearly bought out every book in Books A Million. Chevy and Bunny ended up with new knives.
After three hours, they finally sat down to eat. Chevy was starving and wanted more than a salad. Rico gave him a funny look when he ordered two huge steaks medium rare. Bunny was coming down with a cold. He felt queasy with all the smells. Watching Rico and Erion inhale half the menu nearly had him running from the table. Verde didn't understand how the two could eat so much and not gain an ounce whereas the thought of a candy bar put five pounds on his ass.
"I been meaning to ask this," Talon said around some broccoli. "If your name is Leveret why do they call you Bunny?"
Bunny sipped his ginger ale and pulled his shirt away from his chest. The fabric had been irritating his nipples all day. "When I was younger I was hyper and had bucky teeth so my older sister, Snow's mother, nicknamed me bunny."
He nodded. "I see."
"It just stuck."
"But he doesn't call you Bunny," Erion said.
The albino shook his head. "Mostly Lev, Leveret, mon lapin."
Rico frowned. "Those all mean rabbit or bunny."
Bunny shrugged tugging on his shirt again. "My life."
Uni climbed off Verde's lap and went to throw her trash away. There were lots of twists and turns as she made her way to the back of the restaurant. So many big people walked by. People with trays, little old ladies, some teenagers. She found the trashcan and put her napkin inside. When she turned around, a man smiled down at her.
"You smell different," he said.
She smiled, revealing her missing upper teeth. "My daddy seths I smell like baby powdurrr n innasense."
