Ace and Tristan follow us out of the meeting room, and I notice that my team and the remainder of Jaylen’s team are the only ones waiting for us.
“I think it is best if we have everyone gather in our main living room,” Jaylen links me, but I tell him it is a bad idea.
“What if someone finds out about us and informs other Alphas? Or if they decide they want me for themselves? It is best if no one knows why our units get combined, except for our units, of course,” I tell him.
We decide it is best to have everyone meet on the top floor of my unit’s wing. We have enough seats for everyone, and I happen to know that our kitchen is stocked. “Moura, can you make an easy lunch for both units? Ask for help if you need it,” I mind–link her, and she tells me she is already on it.
Suddenly, I remember what Skylar had mentioned to me, and I turn on my heel to head back to the meeting room. I just hope Damon and Casimir are still there. Jaylen follows me without asking questions, and as I step into the meeting room, I see Damon opening the door on the other end of the room. “Your Majesty, can I have a minute?” I ask.
Damon turns around with an annoyed look on his face, but when he sees that the other door is also open, he realizes why I didn’t call him Damon. “Is it possible for us to have as many units at the Academy as possible during the next Full Moon? Skylar pointed out that most units are never here at the same time,” I
say.
For a moment, Damon is quiet, but then he turns to Elder Larson. “Inform all Commanders of Morgan’s request. I think it will be good to find out if we have any fated couples in our ranks,” Damon says, and I smile as I see Skylar grin at me. She is hoping to find her fated Mate. I hope a lot of Wolves and Lycans in the King’s Army will find their fated Mate during the next Full Moon.
When we get back to the top floor of my unit’s wing, I see that both unit members are present. The guy that lunged at me earlier takes a step forward, and he hangs his head before he starts talking. “Commander Morgan, I want to apologize for my behavior earlier. I acted before I had all the information, and I apologize for making assumptions about something I didn’t witness myself.”
Amra and I can sense that he is sincere. “I am putting you on probation. Once Jaylen and I have explained everything, you will understand why,” I respond. I need him to understand I need to be able to trust him, and even though he apologized, I don’t have that much faith in him.
Jaylen explains to everyone what happened in his past, and I hear almost all of them roar or growl. The ones that stay quiet are the men in his own team. “From the moment Morgan and her unit moved in here, we haven’t spent a single Full Moon at the Academy, but we have crossed paths, so to speak. Morgan and her unit left in the morning, and we returned about two hours later during a Full Moon.
Midnight scented his Mate, but I didn’t because of my past. Midnight has been telling me for a few years now to let go of the past, and he has been more persistent since that Full Moon. Midnight knew that Morgan is our fated Mate, but as you can understand, I didn’t, and I truly believe I would have never figured it out if it hadn’t been for a few recent events.
Midnight had enough of waiting for me to figure it out on my own finally, so he decided to take control as I was asleep, and I have been sleeping in Morgan’s bed every chance Midnight saw to do that. The day Blue River Pack was attacked, I woke up in her bed, and I can tell you I was completely at a loss. I didn’t understand what I was doing there or how I got there.

make me choose between her and my Pups, something that has been my greatest worry when it comes to finding my fated Mate. I hope that during the next Full Moon, I will be able to tell for myself that she is my fated Mate, but I know without a doubt that she is my fated Mate,” Jaylen explains.
Flora asks him how he can be so sure, and when he explains what happened in the meeting room, she knows that the two of us are fated Mates. Flora had asked question after question during our classes on the Mate–bond. She had an example for every question she asked, and it gave us all a better understanding of the Mate–bond.
“I know you all heard about the Alpha that came here to claim me as his Mate, but he made a few mistakes along the way, and he will not be bothering me again. However, he might inform other Alphas of my bloodline, and that will mean that there might be other Alphas that will come after me or who will try to forcefully mark me.
King Damon isn’t willing to take that risk and asked us to find a way to make sure I will be protected at all times. As long as our assignments allow it, Jaylen will be by my side, but if he can’t stay with me, Ace and Tristan will take over from Jaylen,” I say, and I know that everyone will want to know why Ace and Tristan were assigned to that job.
One of Jaylen’s unit members asks that question, and I see Jaylen mind–linking someone. It is not difficult to guess he is linking King Damon. It takes a few moments before he looks around the room, and after a few seconds, he looks at me. “I am the future Royal Gamma, and my team are the future Royal Deltas. That is why Ace and Tristan will stay with Morgan if I can’t,” Jaylen says.
For a moment, there is absolute silence around us, but that only lasts for a few moments. Everyone starts asking questions, and Jaylen answers as many as he can. In the end, everyone agrees with him that this was the best way to handle his title and the Academy.
Beck asks a question I have been thinking about myself. “Where will you move to? Your team lives here with you, and Jaylen and his team live on the other side of that wall.” I look at Jaylen to see if he has an answer, but he looks at me for an answer. “I will bunk with Danica, and Skylar can bunk with Chaya. That way, we will have two rooms available for Commander Jaylen’s team,” Faith says.
Emilio tells Ace and Tristan to take the room next to mine and that he and Deacon will take the other room. Jaylen looks from Emilio to me, and I start laughing my ass off before he even utters the question running through his head. “Where am I supposed to sleep?”
Faith doesn’t hesitate and softly knocks him on his head. “Yeah, not much up there,” She mumbles as she walks back to her seat. Jaylen is too stunned by her action to react, and everyone is laughing their asses off. “You will stay with me, Dummy,” I say teasingly through the mind–link, and I can see Midnight pushing forward.
He doesn’t think twice as he pulls me onto his lap and buries his nose in my neck. “Damn, I can get used to this,” I say to Amra, and she just nods her head as she lies down in the back of my head. She feels as comfortable in his arms as I do. My arms wrap around his neck, and I just hold him close to me, enjoying the warmth and comfort I feel in his arms.
I don’t know how long we have been sitting like this before Moura calls out that lunch is ready. Beck follows her out of the kitchen, and both of them are holding two plates. Moura hands me a plate as Beck hands Jaylen a plate, and I am glad I don’t have to walk into that kitchen to get myself a plate of food.
Jaylen and I eat our lunch as we watch our unit members walking in and out of the kitchen. Moura gets compliments on the lunch she prepared for us, and I hear Beck growl a few times. Jaylen warns his men that Beck is Moura’s Mate, and Moura just smiles at Beck as she wraps her arms around his waist.

his Mate, and I made sure their teams went with me on assignments that week. I wanted to give them time to spend together, something I learned from watching Dad after every Full Moon at Blue River Pack, and Moura and Beck appreciated the week they could spend together.
I usually send their teams on assignment together, but I know with the current situation, neither one of them will expect it anymore. They are both smart enough to understand that sometimes I will need one of them with me. I will try to minimize that from happening, but I know they will understand it if I need to split them up for some reason.
It will probably happen a lot less now that Jaylen and I will join our units together. His team will undoubtedly follow me wherever I have to go on an assignment, and Jaylen won’t be far behind them. Tristan and Ace have been near us the entire time, and it annoys me a lot less than I thought it would. Maybe I will get used to having them follow me around. “Yeah, right,” Amra chuckles in my head.
