The Abused Mate

Chapter 32

Richard's POV
I woke roughly around 4:30am and sung my legs out of bed. It had been a restless night but after today I would sleep like a baby. I groaned, stood up and stretched, I would work out the kinks by the time we got to our destination.

"Get up everyone we move out in thirty, meet up in front of my house." I sent the message to everyone that would be coming before shutting of the link. I heard faint grumbling and shuffling down the hall from the twins.

Heading downstairs to grab a quick breakfast, I glanced out the window in the hall and saw several lights on in the other pack houses. I was joined shortly by the twins in kitchen as two more slices of toast popped up from the toaster.

"This will have to do for breakfast we don't have time to get something nourishing. If we're ahead of schedule I might allow a few rabbits to be caught just for the strength alone. We can't weight ourselves down with a big breakfast, now eat up we're leaving shortly." I told them as they each took a slice of toast.

Twenty minutes later the wolves that would be coming with us had gathered several yards from my front porch.

"You all know what is going to happen today. What many of you do not know is that we'll be having aid in this." I announced.

There were several murmurs throughout the group.

"We'll be accompanied by the rogues, not sure how large their numbers are but with both of our groups we'll easily overtake the Black Moon pack." I finished.

Silence followed as everyone took in the information. No one else said anything but I could sense the anxiety and worry throughout the wolves.

"We're meeting them on our western border so let's move out and meet up with them. From there we'll split into three groups all contain both you and the rogues. I assure you all know the rest of the plan. For those who don't you'll be informed by someone who does on the way there. For now let's shift and head to our western border." I finished dismissing them.

The only sound that followed was the footsteps and the exhales as they headed for the tree line to shift.

After almost two hours of running we arrived at our border and the harsh scent of the rogues met our noses. We stopped short and my beta and I shifted back to our human form to meet with Sam and his first in command.

"We're all gathered here so what do we do now? We're bound to lose the element of surprise with so many wolves." Sam spoke up approaching us on our left.

"Did you not listen at all to the phone call? Though there is a slight change to the plans instead of my group staying together and your group splitting into two groups, we're splitting everyone into three groups. I've already made my three groups, we're leaving in about 20 minutes so so what you got to do." I turned back to my Beta.

"Get everyone prepared to leave. Even if we get found out we can take their border patrol out without to much trouble. We'll still have the upper hand though and we'll use that to our advantage." I told him moving past him to the group that I was going to be apart of.

I shifted back after tying my clothes around my ankle. I waited at the head of my group. Several minutes later Sam walked into view followed by the wolves he chose to join our group.

"Everyone is ready, we're just waiting for you to signal." Sam spoke as he undressed and tied his clothes to his ankle before he shifted into his scraggly brown wolf.
