Playing With The Pack

Chapter 20: Dead Witch Walking

Jace POV

Everything was black when I opened up my eyes. I quickly stood to my feet and began to sway left to right trying to catch my balance while also trying to shake this headache that was causing a loud drumming in my head.

"You may want to rest easy there son. You hit your head pretty hard" my dad's voice spoke through the darkness.

"Dad? What happened?" I asked. "Where is Davis and everyone else?"

"Everyone is fine Jace. I have them looking for the others. It's a big hide and seek game going on right now so it may take a while before everyone comes together" he joked. "And as for Davis, we have already taken care of that".

I shook my head as a tear threatened to escape and I could not cry in front of my father right now.

I was a man. I was an Alpha. And I was not weak.

But my father knew better.

"Talk to me Jace. What's the matter?" he asked as his hand gently came down on my shoulder.

"For some reason I keep failing you. And for that, I am truly sorry".

"You're my son Jace. I expect for you take make mistakes and learn from them. Either way, I am going to be here for you".

"Yes I'm your son but to everyone else, I am the Alpha. I have an expectation to withhold and I am failing you all miserably. I don't deserve this title. I am supposed to me making smart decisions but I am putting everyone in danger".

"Stop that nonsense. Let me tell you something. I was in your shoes years ago feeling the same exact way. But so you know what I did? I made different choices and they only became smarter with my years of expertise. You can't expect to be the best Alpha without making mistakes because that's what being a leader is all about Jace. You have to learn because if you don't, that is when you will fail".

"Without you here to save my ass, I would have probably been dead. How does that make me look in the eyes of the others?" I asked him as I turned to look him in the eyes.

He smiled. "That is what being a part of a pack is about. We know when you're in danger. Remember that you have one of the most loyal members in this pack and don't you forget. Anytime someone is willing to die for you, you have done your job as a leader".

And it was after those words, that I began to cry.

Spencer POV

I, Spencer Droid, never thought in a millions years that I would be pimping out my body to an old lady.

A dead one at that.

This was really weird.

But I was the Luna of this pack and I needed to make sure that I was dependable and I needed to prove it to them some way.

This seemed like the best option.

I needed to be taken serious as the Luna and if this was what had to do, than to hell with it.

I just hoped I was making the right decision.

Having Silvia take over my body was like an out of body experience for me. One minute she was standing in front of me and the next minute she is me.
