It didn't take much to find Sarah's office. She was sitting in a room strikingly similar to Cullen's office. Her door was open, inviting anyone to come in. That differed from Cullen's usually closed door. Aislinn figured that the invitation was for someone to bother Sarah before bothering Cullen and then Sarah would decide if the problem was worthy of the real boss. Aislinn smiled to herself. That was certainly one job she knew she didn't want.

"You guys don't have much variation in your decorating from room to room do you?" Aislinn said hopefully as she poked her head in the doorway and waited to be invited in.

Sarah looked up. Her brow was furrowed but she smiled at Aislinn just the same and waved her in. Aislinn walked across the room and sat down in the chair across from Sarah at the desk. "So, Cullen suggested that I come to you for some kind of assignment. But you look worried about something. Is this a bad time?"

"No," Sarah sighed and pushed the papers in front of her away. "I

    Cullen had decided that the less time Jenna had the better. Cadifor called in quite a few favors. But it looked as though they were going to pull it off. The group had eaten dinner, finished their phone calls, and the mating was set for the next day at sunset. Cullen sent as many lycans ahead to the reservation that evening as could be managed. The rest would follow the next day.There was some argument as to whether Keith would be joining them. He refused to allow Jaylyn to leave the Madadh-Allaidh Saobhaidh and he didn't want to leave her with just omegas to look after her. In the end she insisted that he go and leave her in peace for the night. She had her hands full with Eiros and Eira. Even so Keith decided to remain behind and with Jaylyn for as long as possible. Mostly he held her gently while she slept.The den was eerily quiet that night. Cullen, Cadifor, Aislinn, and Makeda sat with bottles and glasses in hand in the main room of the penthouse. Cullen and Cadifor had been la

    Cullen felt Aislinn shift. He knew she wasn't upset or in trouble. But it concerned him that she would be in a situation that cause her to change forms. He was trying to get a sense of what was happening to her but she was wrapped up in whatever it was and was concentrating enough that she wasn't open to a conversation."Cullen?"He looked up at Cadifor's voice. "Sorry. What?"Cadifor sighed. "Maybe it's time for a break. We've been at this all day. We missed lunch. How about an early dinner. I think we're mostly set anyway."Cullen nodded and all the others in the room were looking hopeful at the suggestion. "I think I need to find Aislinn anyway." They saw Cullen's vision fog over again before he looked around the room. "Why don't we all meet in the Taigh-Oèsda in half an hour."There was an easy consensus and the group dispersed. Cadifor got up to go with Cullen. "Last I saw Makeda she had her eyes set on your woman. I believe I'll be most likely to find her still with Aislinn."Cu

    Keith and Malik walked into Cullen's office with smirks on their faces. Without a word Keith walked over to the nearest chair and plopped down then propped his feet on the edge of Cullen's desk, right on top of some papers Sarah had been writing on. Sarah looked as though she might rip his head off.Cadifor shook his head. Keith and his blatant lack of concern for superiors was interesting. Cadifor gave him credit for appearing to know when to turn it on and off, but this wasn't one of those occasions.Keith looked around at all the glaring people. Malik at least had the courtesy to wipe the smirk off his face. "Okay okay, I give in I'll tell. Guess why I can't find out when Jenna intends to attack." There were more glares. "Alright I'll give you a hint.""Keith," Cullen growled. "Enough."Cadifor smirked this time. At Cullen's tone the look on Keith's face immediately vanished and he sat up in the chair. Sarah brushed the paperwork off and gave him the kind of amused look a big siste

    "I don't get it," Aislinn said after a while. "I don't understand why you have no problem telling me all this and no one else seems to think I can handle it."Makeda shrugged. "I have nothing to gain or lose by it. The rest of the pack is concerned that they may say or do something wrong. It doesn't matter if the consequence is that you'd misunderstand and become upset or do something that may upset the alpha. You're real problem is that Cullen Arnauk is a strong leader and his pack cares for him. They're trying to not scare you away and they don't know what will do it. I on the other hand have no concern for his feelings or truly for yours. Mostly I'm fascinated by your reactions to all of it and the fact that you could be here for even a month and still be in the dark." She grinned in amusement. "There's something very sexy about your naivety.""You always turn things into sex." Aislinn raised her eyebrows at Makeda. She was growing to like the woman quite a bit."After you've lived

    Cadifor looked from one of them to the other and then raised his eyebrows at Cullen. "If Keith's busy then I'll assume it's just you and I." He started pulling his clothes on."Yeah, Aislinn's going to show Makeda around. You and I will finish getting a hold of the people we need to talk with. I'm assuming that Malik is downstairs by now. They were all supposed to arrive by this morning. But with Jaylyn going into labor I haven't been able to get any of the normal people in one spot to get the information. It's still early."Cadifor smiled. "I always did like the fact that your pack is less rank and order and more family."Cullen didn't know how to respond to the compliment. Cadifor looked Aislinn over briefly. "So this is the one with the visions. Pretty," he said.Aislinn nodded respectfully to Cadifor. Cullen stood patiently as his friend approached Aislinn and walked around her looking her over as if she were livestock at a fair. He leaned into her and smelled her hair deeply. Cul

    This is why I'll deal with the rest of the crap, she thought to herself as she felt his obsessive thoughts about her. She closed her eyes and let herself drift in their bond for a moment. Cullen's annoyance and concern brought her back to reality rather harshly. Aislinn looked at him questioningly.Cullen put the phone down. "I don't remember the last time that fool didn't answer on the first ring.""Maybe something's wrong. That seems to be the theme of late," she suggested and Cullen growled. Then Aislinn smiled widely. "Or Jaylyn could be having the babies."Cullen nodded. "That's entirely possible. It seems like she's been pregnant forever." He headed out of the office and Aislinn had to jump to follow him. He stopped at Sarah's office and there was no one there. On the way back through the great room Cullen looked around for the usual group and didn't see anyone. The two of them got in the elevator and headed for the beta floor.Getting out of the elevator answered the mystery. A
