Leah writhed in pain in the bedsheets. Her usual monthly friend had come to haunt her again. Alec left earlier in the morning, and now this pain was just hitting her. The pain would vanish in about a day but this was the price of being resurrected at one point in your lifetime.

Alec felt the pain through the mate bond and immediately rushed home as he knew what it was. Luckily the pain would vanish if Alec was in close proximity to her. Alec thought to himself. Nothing could go wrong in one day. He would just spend his day with Leah today. Alec would do anything to make the pain go away when it dealt with Leah.

In all his years on living, Alec never thought he would truly care for someone as he did to Leah. She was truly everything to him. Intentionally, he would never let any harm come to her. Alec appeared in front of Leah as she was having in pain. As soon as Alec stepped into the room the pain subsided a little. Leah's vision was blurred until he walked in.

"Hey, baby." Alec soothed. He laid down beside her under the blankets. Laying soft kisses on her forehead as he held her body closer to him.

Leah's body was burning up like she had a fever or something, but her body instantly cooled internally when Alec held her.

"Don't you have work to do? I don't want to hold you up." Leah spoke more easily now as the pain completely vanished. She sighed in relief. Leah was happy that Alec was near here but he had to put his priorities first. Protecting the pack and their people where Alec and Leah's ultimate goals. Leah would rather not hold Alec up when he had important work to do, even if it meant her suffering for a day.

However, there was no way Alec was going to leave Leah by herself. He was stubborn that way and Leah knew it.

"It will be fine. Damon will take my place today." Alec said. Hopefully, nothing would go wrong today.

"And the girl you found from last night? Is she alright?" Leah asked. Alec left this morning to go talk to her.

"She is genuine with her words as I could tell she wasn't lying. Apparently, Crow has a whole pack of rogues and other small packs that he took over, the females are treated like slaves. Kylie managed to escape with her sister and ran for a couple of days. Her sister was killed by the man tracking her down, but she managed to get away. Luckily, she stumbled into the borders in time or she would have been dead. On the bright side, we know where Crow and his men are, and we have more information on his pack. That also helps with Rem's plan." Alec explained.

"That's perfect. When do we attack." Leah was eager to get her hands soaked with Crow's blood.

"Hold on my eager little mate. We can't just go barging into enemy territory. Crow isn't an easy person to kill. Also, training still needs to continue. They aren't ready yet." Alec said.

"I don't care. I'll kill him myself." More a minute Leah was blinded by rage.

"And that's how you get killed. You can't fight with anger and rage." Alec said.

"Fight with an open mind, closed fists, and pure heart." They both said in unison.

"Hm, maybe our packs aren't so different after all," Leah said. That was a saying that the two packs unknowingly shared when it came to fighting.

"Speaking of, your alpha friend, Mark," Alec said his name in a distasteful manner. He never liked how close they were as friends and he couldn't help the jealousy when she would mention her previous Alpha. "He contacted Damon yesterday, he stands by us and has offered to send his top fighters. They should be arriving today."
