"That's crazy",Cherry yelled,still not able to believe a woman could be so cruel.

"So what do we do?", Cherry's mate said, still hugging her to his body. Grey then took notice of the Beta's mate, but it wasn't like he was going to ask him to leave. He was always in their meetings since he helped them quite a lot. He had Beta blood but didn't even try to be dominant over Cherry. He didn't even want her position as the Pack's Beta, he just loved to help share her Beta duties just like any Beta mate.

"For the meantime we'll try getting the refugees to our pack Nick", Grey replied. "Then after, we will just have to wait for Briada to make her next move",he added.
Nick nodded in understanding.

"Lead the way Usher",Grey said.

"I thought you were staying back Alpha", Cherry said in distress. "We will take care of everything,you should probably stay with the Luna", she added in a soft voice.

"No, I need to do this. It might get really dangerous. I don't doubt your capability but just leave it to us",Grey said trying to convince her.

A frown found itself etched on her face. She furiously tucked a stubborn strand of hair behind her ears. Nick found himself rubbing her forehead.

"Stop frowning, you'll get old",Nick teased.

"C'mon Cherry, just stay back. I leave the Pack in your hands. Protect your Luna and my kids",Grey voiced.
Nick pressed his lips to her jaw. She sighed.

"Alright, alright, I'm staying", you don't need me there anyway", Cherry replied with a scoff and not even  sparing them a glance left from there.

"Shouldn't we talk to her?, Maybe we should take her with us,she seemed pretty upset", Usher reasoned.

Nick laughed.
"She's only pretending. We're running late, show the way Usher",Nick said already walking out.

"Calm down Cherry", Gabriella says for nth time since Cherry barged into the Infirmary.
"You're so dramatic",she adds and smiles as she rocks Romania back and forth.

"They left me behind Gaby, I am the Beta and they left me behind but Nick went with them. How do you think I feel?", Cherry asked in a low voice

"You do realize that sometimes Alphas leave without their Betas to have a stranger wolf protect the Pack while The Alpha's away", Gabriella tried her possible best to explain to Cherry even when she knew the Beta was just being plain dramatic.

"Then what the fuck about Nick?", Cherry cussed then immediately covered her mouth with her hand.

Gabriella gave her a scowl then said "Language ma'am, I'm raising two kids and the language you're speaking is not healthy for them."

Cherry sighed as she released her hand from her mouth. Romania chuckled, adding some baby sounds.
This made Cherry look at the little girl. It was the very first time Romania had her attention. Cherry found her eyes softening as she stared at the little girl. Suddenly she smiled and stretched her arms, ready to hold the baby.

"You want to hold her?", Gabriella asked surprised.
Cherry never liked babies. It wasn't like she hated them or something. How could she hate kids when she already had a daughter. She loved kids, just not babies.

Gabriella was about to hand over Romania when she saw Cherry's arms shaking.

"You won't drop her relax", Gabriella tried to soothe her uneasy nerves.
