After Gabbie's declaration about the rogues earlier, I gave her a guest room for her and her niece and send them to bed. I promised her we would talk about it after she had gained some rest from the ordeal.

Her story baffled me as to why a werewolf, even one as low as a rogue, would want the blood of pack members. Rogues could do nothing with the blood of those they had killed, so what was truly going on?

I sat in silence in the pack libary, away from the prying eyes of any other pack member, as I scoured the pages of old pack history books. There had to be something in these stories that described what Gabbie saw. Frenzied, red-eyed rogues after blood had to have seen before.

After looking for almost two hours, my wolf and I were as frustrated as ever.

"Ugh!" I let out as I threw the book I was currently looking through at the wall near the door, the pages shattering on impact.

"Sorry" a small voice whispered. I whipped my head to the quiet voice that spoke out to me.

A pair of blue eyes stared up at me as mine connected with the little girl. The one Gabbie had brought with her, Zea.

"I didn't mean to disturb you" she said, hesitant about intruding.

I gave her a slight smile as I walked around the chair in front of me to stand before her. "It's alright"

She nodded her head slightly before looking back to the book I had shattered against the wall. Confusion covered her tiny features. "Why did you do that?" She asked.

"Um" I was at a loss at how to answer her.

"Did the book do something wrong?" She asked, clearly confused by my behavior.

Running my hand trough my hair out of habit, I thought of a way to explain an action that was not exactly one easily explained. After a second of thought, I knelt in front of her, so we were on eye level. "Well you see, the book did nothing wrong"

"Then why did you throw it?"

"I was very angry with myself because I'm having trouble solving a problem" I tell her.

"What kind of problem?" She inquired. The curiosity in her eyes reminded me of my past.

"The one your aunt Gabbie has brought to my attention"

She nodded her head in understanding. She looked to be no more than five or six years old, yet she seemed to understand everything I said without any difficulty. After a moment, she looked back at me and asked. " may I help you solve the problem with the Rogues?"

It was a bit chocking that she knew what was happening back at her pack, but I could respect a child who was mature enough to not break down in the situation. "Very well."

She shook her head up and down as she walked past me to the table I had been sitting at. Grabbing the first book that she came across, she pulled it off the table and headed over to one of the plush chairs. Pulling herself up, I watched as she opened the book and began to scour the pages for information about the attack she saw.

Constantly taking glances at the small child, I walked back to where I was sitting before and began to go through another one of the books I had placed on the table. It was only five minutes before Zea spoke up.

"Have you thought about the magic people?" She asked. I put down my book to look at her. She was watching me S she pointed to a picture in the book she picked up. "This book says magic people like blood"

"Warlocks" I tell her.

"Warlocks" she repeated "is this what you are looking for?"

I went next to her and gently took the book from her and began to read the pages.

"This is exactly what I was looking for" I told her, smiling at her.

She smiled back to me before jumping up from her seat. " well my job is done then" she shouted happily as she skipped out of the room, hollering back to me. "Good bye Alpha!"

I laughed slightly as u watched her leave.

She is a perfect pup, Knox commented.

I was a bit shocked at his sudded input, where have you been? I asked him.

Around, he answered secretly , I had things to do

Like what? I asked him.

I can't tell? you yet he answered cryptically, you aren't ready yet.
