Sorry, this chapter is so short been trying to figure out how to make it longer for a while but I think it's good as it.
Also, the pic is of Gabby whose being my sleepy cute helper <3 She fell asleep while I was working on the ending <3

Jay's pov:

"God damn these old bastards.." I sigh mentally really hate dealing with the elder members of the guard who refuse to give up the night watch shift to the vampires as I sigh softly really starting to hate dealing with this.

"I'm not asking you to quit the guard, I'm just saying we need to move you to the day shift so the vampires who are moving in can take the night watch. It's a convenient switch meaning we won't be spread as thin with the guard shifts." I explain once again for pretty sure what is the fifth time, but who am I to be keeping count of this.

"But we've been on this watch for years." One of them argues while the others nod though some look to be keen on the idea of being able to rest since with the switch it means we could finally not have our guards worn thin. After two attacks we had half our troops in the medical and we lost a third of troops to the attacks so everyone who was able-bodied was stuck between their guard duties and helping to rebuild the damage from the attacks.

"Yes I understand that, but the vampires are better for the night shift and with the damages still being repaired and half our men in the medical everyone is worn thin having Cyrus and his vampires take over the night watch would mean everyone could have a day rest to recover." I try explaining to try and make them see sense because if this keeps up I'm gonna lose my shit.

I sigh feeling Gage laughing at this crap through the bond while teasing me making me growl internally because he's right, I'd rather making it so he couldn't walk straight for a few days but no I'm down here dealing with old guardsmen who should have been retired years ago.

"Look you can deal with me and Cyrus or I will go and get Troy and trust me, he would not be in a good mood if I have to pull him out his meeting with Black." I threaten finally reaching my supposedly never-ending fuse of patience with these old assholes. Finally, they relented after the threat and now the switching shifts can finally start after months of this back and forth crap.

"About damn time.." Cyrus growled his fangs flashing as he huffed crossing his arms watching the elder guards' backs as they leave.

"Tell me about it.." I groan rubbing the bridge of my nose with my thumb and forefinger feeling my headache lessen a little, but there's still so much work to do today and this had taken hours as I groan softly. "This is gonna be a damn long day.." I mutter heading out to the next thing on my list of crap I have to check today.

-Hours later-

God damn today is such a cluster fuck. First trying to work through the new guard shifts of who can be on guard duty and who can go do the other odd end jobs. Then I missed lunch because two idiots decided to have a fight by one of the sections that are under construction and we had to cut them out of instant drying cement, that had an enchantment on it so it would harden as soon it was laid, after the dumb asses knocked a mixed batch over that hardened over their feet.
Lastly, I ended up in a two-hour-long meeting with Black, Troy, Cyrus, and Sage as we tried to work out all the new schedules, what needed to be repaired and updated first, how to make sure the day and night watch could communicate between each other now, and lastly how many new pack members we had coming in from a recent pack whose Alpha had died without leaving an heir and whose beta had been killed by rouges who had attacked them shortly after the Alpha's death.

All in all, today has royal sucked and I'm exhausted. All I want to do is eat, shower, and then curl up in bed with Gag. That's how bad today has been and I've dealt with worse but all this stress and being the only guard head while having to do multiple things at once because of Black and Troy being busy with their own problems means I'm stuck picking up whatever minor incidents happen while dealing with my duties.

"Gage please tell me-" I start to say I open the door to our bedroom only to freeze seeing my mate dressed in very sexy lingerie laying on our bed with a sexy as hell smirk on his face.

Well, I guess today isn't gonna be a total loss.
