She smiled standing before him with an unwavering gaze and said, “You are smart, and yes, you should never trust me, but it’s your call. Either you take my offer and try to take the lead or just rush in and get them killed yourself."
Randall peered into her eyes, they were staring straight without any fear or hesitation. Against his better instincts, he decided to trust her.
**
Alpha Randall had been quite happy with the decision. It was a good thing he trusted her; they were able to retrieve his daughter safely. Despite her injury, she led the mission successfully, but in the end, she was even more injured. His beta, Matt was the one who found her unconscious body, again. He realized that she had not followed them and decided to go back to the rogue’s hideout. He also brought some interesting news on what transpired between herself and her mate. She remained unconscious for two days.
“Evelyn Skyler,” that’s her name, but that was all the information Randall was able to get. Any details of where she is from and which pack she belonged to, was never found.
Two days after the battle, unusual wolves from an unknown pack visited them. They waited on the border requesting permission to enter but never gave any information about themselves. The only reason Randall allowed them in was when they informed that Evelyn was from their pack.
Randall recognized the wolves were quite fierce. “Must be of the Warrior class,” guessed Reese. Each men were over six feet tall and had a muscular physique. Initially, their faces were devoid of expression, but quickly turned into masks of tightly repressed rage and anxiety when they looked at her lying unconscious on the bed. Clearly, she was someone important. But no matter how much they were questioned, they never gave any clue except, "The Alpha will answer you if needed."
The next day when Evelyn woke up there were huge shouts of arguments and angry words thrown across the room, most of them chastising her on the careless actions. Amidst the entire rebuke she was receiving, Evelyn just kept smiling. Not even flinching a little on the amount of temper running across in the room. She was not in a position to travel; hence she had to stay in their pack for at least a week.
During the week Erza took care of her and they both seemed to have formed a bond. The current change in Erza was due to her influence. They left after a week. Alpha Randall continued to contact them when any incident arises. During the past year, Evelyn visited them sometimes and stayed a few days. She also helped in training Ezra with hand-to-hand combat. But the only annoying aspect of Evelyn’s and her pack was, He never knew the name of the pack she belonged, or where they are from.
Alpha Randall could have persisted until they shared the information, but Evelyn had given her word that all would be explained when the time comes. There was something about Evelyn and her pack. Friendship seemed to grow with them without actually trying to.
“Alpha! He is here," Matt interrupted him from his memories.
The news brought a smile on his face. Apart from Evelyn, they have also been visited often by another Alpha.
“Ryan Snyder.” Alpha Randall pitied the guy. He has tried to find his mate since a year ago but never succeeded. Randall was unable to help the fellow Alpha. Evelyn had made them swear an oath not to reveal her identity to anyone, specifically to the Alpha of Fire-Moon Pack and her mate-Ryan Snyder, in return of her services for finding his daughter. But Ryan has still not given up. He occasionally came to try to get some information about her.
"Have the other Alphas arrived?" he asked Matt.
"Yes! Alphas from the Northern and Western packs are here. We are still awaiting the arrival of the other four Alphas."
Today was the day of the Big-Meet. There was a unanimous decision to have a meeting with all the packs to try to find the issue of many wolf disappearances across their territories. In the beginning, the random disappearances went unnoticed. But now the problem was becoming a big issue across all the packs. No one was able to explain the disappearances. The Alphas were not able to reach the missing wolves via a mind-link either.
"Bring him in now. We still have time to chat before the others arrive," he ordered.
