Chapter Forty - Just A Professional Disagreement

KARA

A MONTH LATER

Rogues have been fun.

After the party, rogues have been so active lately. There would a big rogue ambush at a random pack like it's a weekly shopping.

I've either been at my pack, the SC meetings, or sometimes, Connor's pack. I have been away for a week already, just sorting through this rogue situation with the SC and I miss my mates, I really do. Even though they're sometimes a pain, but they make my day better just by being there.

And Christian. I know I shouldn't be accepting a rogue that quick- and I'm not- but he has a little corner in my heart that I didn't know he claimed. He's like a brother I went through adolescence not having.

We just transferred him to the White Moon pack and he lives like a normal pack member in a house not so far from the pack house. Before I agreed for him to be transferred, I laid down a condition that he must have a warrior with him at all times, so he doesn't betray us or something along those lines.

Another SC meeting has just concluded and I exited the building with the other five. Uncle C and I bid them goodbye before they went to their own territories. Before I could turn around and leave, he placed a hand on my shoulder, effectively stopping me from moving.

"Kara, you should go home. You've been here for a week. You miss your mates."

I turned around, "The rogue situation isn't solved yet. Until it is, I'm not going home."

"You're gonna push yourself to the edge, and if you continue, you'll fall off the cliff. Just go home, we'll continue this tomorrow," he said while giving me a soft smile.

I've been staying at a hotel, juggling one rogue situation in meetings, two packs an hour away, and three mates on the phone. I admit I have been pushing myself a little too hard, but rogues are tearing families apart. I can't just leave that alone.

If you don't go home, I'll force shift and run back.

And Snow has been threatening me. Maybe I should go home for the night...

After an hour drive, I arrived in front of the White Moon pack house. I parked my car in the garage, took my luggage and bag, unlocked the door, and went in. Not even two feet inside and three pairs of arms were thrown around me.

"Oh, Wolverine!" I gasped in shock. They let go after a while and Connor kissed my lips with a grin on his face. The moment our mouths connected, Jake forcefully pulled him away.

"You're not her only mate."

I shook my head as the two werewolves had a puppy fight. I grabbed my luggage that was pushed away from their sudden hug and started walking up the stairs. Edward, who's a responsible person (never picks fights, this vampire), followed me up to my room while Connor and Jake fought.

I entered the room and set my luggage and bag aside. I immediately flopped on the bed and shoved my face in a pillow, wanting to get some sleep. I felt the side of the bed dip and turned my head slightly to see Edward sitting on the edge.

"Those two are something," he commented while stroking hair off my face. I chuckled, "They always fight. I can't believe one's an Alpha and one's a Beta heir."

I turned so I was on my back. He leaned back and placed his head on my stomach.

"Of all your mates, you spend the least time with me."

"I'm sorry, you know you can visit anytime. And I'll stop by your place sometime," I apologized. I noticed a small smile on his face. The door opened and we saw Jake punching Connor's shoulder and them laughing about something.

Boys would be boys.

They stopped dead in their tracks when their eyes found us.

"What're we seeing?" Jake asked in an annoyed tone.

Edward was quick to sit up and stand at the foot of the bed. I rolled my eyes, "You both were fighting and I wasn't gonna wait until you were done."

"It wasn't a fight," Jake said and Connor continued, "It was just a professional disagreement."

I shook my head in disappointment and turned my back towards them. I pulled the covers up to my chin, "I'm gonna take a small nap. Call me up when dinner's ready?"

I sensed Connor walking towards me and placing a small kiss on my temple, "Of course, love. Sleep tight."

I smiled before closing my eyes and falling into the abyss of sleep.
