We know you did your best to hide from the world that your youngest Pup is a female, but your secret is out. We know that you never had the chance to tell her about her gift, and we will make her a part of our Pack, one way or the other.
Your ancestor robbed us of a long line of gifted females, but Morgan will take her place. We won’t make the same mistake as our ancestor made, she will be kept under close watch. Don’t try to warn her or anyone close to her; if you do, we will not only come for your Daughter
Shadow Rock Pack.
I stare at the letter for a moment before I start cussing and swearing. Casimir just wraps an arm around me and lets me rant until I have calmed down a little. “How did he know?” King Damon asks, and I know he is asking me that question, but I tell him I don’t have an answer.
“My unit didn’t find out until after the try–out weeks, and Nigel was long gone by then. No one in my unit has any contact with him; Nigel was an ass to most of them, and the rest were ignored by him. Even if he had contact with one of them, none of them would have told him, not after hearing from Moura what happened to my ancestors,” I respond.
“I think I might have the answer, Dad says as he gets out of his seat. “Your Mother and I have always been very aware of this, and that is why we never invited Packs to celebrations or took you with us. You look exactly like her, Dad says as he shows me a picture of a female, and I could be looking at a picture of myself if it weren’t for the clothes she is wearing.
She is wearing a silver dress with sequins all over it, something I can’t wear because they give me a horrible rash, and if Shadow Rock Pack has a similar picture, Nigel would have recognized me immediately. “But why wait this long to send this letter?” Casimir asks.
“Nigel was always complaining about his Father ignoring him, of not including him in Pack business and always talking down at him. What if he didn’t know about this until recently and was shown a picture once he was told,” I mumble, and I truly believe that he never knew this about his ancestors; he would have bragged about something like that.
Damn it, this will collide with my job. How can I travel to Packs to settle an argument or a fight if I have to look over my shoulder? How can I keep my unit safe if someone is coming for me? I doubt they would stop an attack if my team or unit are with me, and knowing the members of my unit, they will protect me at all.

“Morgan, I know I can’t stop you from pursuing your career. I don’t want to stop you, but you must
understand that this is something we will worry about constantly, Dad gets interrupted by our Pack’s alarm. “Mom, take King Damon and Prince Casimir with you to the saleroom. Wait for the signal before you come out again, I yell as I run towards the door.
“Warn Jaylen and Amir. We need all the help we can get,” Amra says, and I link Amir as I run out of the office. Jaylen is a bit more difficult to reach, and when I finally get him to open the mind–link, he sounds confused, but I don’t have time to ask questions.
Jaylen, Blue River Pack is under attack. The Luna is taking the King and Crown Prince with her to the saferoom; Amir is on his ta. Get here as fast as you can and brine as much help as ww.ct.” I say before I close the link. Right now.

“The King and Crown Prince are in a safercom with the Luna: they are safe. Let’s make sure no one enters the territory; Commander Amir and Commander Jaylen are on their way.” I yell through the mind–link at my team and the King’s Warriors. Landon is right beside me and tells me they are at the gate and our northern border.
“Chaya, Faith. Take half of the King’s Warriors with you and head to the gate, the rest follows me,” I order through the
mind–link.
“Hudson, go with them and inform them about everything you hear through the mind–link,” I yell at him. before 1 sprint towards the northern border, Landon still right behind me.
The future Royal Beta shows up next to me with Casimir’s personal Warriors, and when I open my mouth. he just shakes his head. “The Prince told us to stay with you and to protect you with our lives. He didn’t say why, just that they are after you.” He says, and I know they will do whatever it takes to protect me.

Persistent pressing against the block I have up wakes me up, and I am confused as to where I am until I see a picture next to the bed. A picture of Morgan and her unit, I shoot up straight in bed as I realize where I am. Again, someone is pressing against my block, and I open it to find out what is going on.
I nearly jump out of my skin when I hear Morgan, and I am out of bed before she is finished speaking. I know I will have some explaining to do, but right now, I have other things on my mind. I open the door to be met with Flora, and she looks really pissed off. “Captain, I will explain everything when I find an answer myself. Right now, I need you to wake everyone and get them ready to leave for Blue River Pack; they are under attack. Meet me downstairs as fast as you can,” I say as I look at her, and she nods her head before she walks away.
I run down the stairs of Morgan’s wing and find everyone still fast asleep in my wing. I know I can wake them with a mind–link, but something tells me to open each door to wake them myself. When I open Kaia’s room, it is empty, and when I ask her team where she is, they tell me she leaves for a night more often, but that she always comes back on time.
As we all get ready, I link Amir to ask him how far out he is. It will take us the better part of the day to get there, and it will take Amir over four hours to get there. Only the King can link all units at once, so Amir and I decide to each link another Commander to get the message through to every unit the King has and to get as much help as we can.
By the time we have left the Academy, I have linked three Coinmanders, and two of them are close enough to be there within half an hour.
“Morgan, two units are half an hour away; one unit is over an hour out, and Amir will be there in less than four hours. For us, it will take a lot longer, just hold on, “1 say through the mind–link, and I close it before I get a response from her.
Knowing it will take us a long time before we reach Blue River Pack, I decide to have a talk with Midnight. “Why did I wake up in Morgan’s bed?” I ask him. “Don’t try to ignore me or to make excuses; I didn’t walk into her room,” I say, and I watch him as he turns towards me. I know I will not like what he has to say: I can tell by the look in his eyes.
“After the stunt Lynah pulled, you closed yourself off to everyone, except our Father and our Pups. Every time someone would bring up their Mate, you practically ran from the room; you closed yourself off from the chance to find happiness, and you will never find it if you keep living in the past. I can’t answer your question as long as you are not willing to let go.“Midnight responds.

Lynah took all of that away from me; she probably also destroyed my chance of happiness with mean, a male or a female will never accept their Mate’s Pups, unless they are someone’s second chance Mate, and how do I explain my situation to my Mate?
I hear Midnight growl in my head. You will never have to wonder about that, because you will never find her with your mindset, Asshole,” Midnight growls at me before he turns his back on me and retreats to the back of my head as far as he can.
“Jaylen, are you okay? You have been very quiet,” Tristan asks, and my entire team looks at me. “I just had a
my fated discussion with Midnight, and he told me that with my mindset, I didn’t have to worry about how Mate will react to Dalton and Thora, because I will never find her, according to him, I answer them honestly. Maybe they can help me understand what my Lycan means.
All four of them are quiet as they think about what I have said, and I try to figure out how everything is connected with one another. Before I can even tell them what is running through my mind. I roar as a searing pdin runs across my arm, and I grab it to see that there is nothing
