VANESSA POV
"First we are going to return our deceased pack members to Mother Nature and then ...........I'm killing your Grandfather," Gunnar growls."How many pack members did we lose," I whisper while watching the rage burn in Gunnar's beautiful blue eyes."Four warriors. That is all I am aware of. Reed might have killed some male omegas when he forced the females out," Gunnar growls and my stomach bottoms out."I hope Jax is okay," I say before burying my face in Gunnar's neck near his mark."I'm sure he is. Your friend seemed fine in the clearing. She would have felt the bond tear if he had been killed," he says and I nod against his hot skin."You keep rubbing on me, I am going to take you," Gunnar mumbles and I gasp in horror."You have your brother's blood along with God knows who else's all over you, so that isn't happening," I declare after pulling my head away from his mark.His jaw tenses and my heart pinches f

HILDA POVI watch the smallflame dance in between my fingers for as long as possible before flicking the match towards Kraven's deceased form. Tears stream down my face as the fire begins to grow. The last time I stood alone during a challenge burn, my mate was the body on top of the woodpile."I'm sorry, baby brother. I'm sorry for being a weak little girl who couldn't stand up to her daddy. I'm sorry for pushing you away when I was angry. I'm sorry for not defending you when our brother put you down. But those are the only things I am sorry for. Your death was your own brother. Your crimes were your own. Silver Tail will prosper without you, and for that......I celebrate your death......Rest easy, baby brother," I whisper as I turn away from the large blaze.I wipe my tears and push the grief down deep. I need to focus. I need to set a plan in motion before the Return to the Pack ceremony begins. The King has betrayed his people. Eliminated thousands! I

VANESSA POVA breath I didn't know I was holding expells from my mouth as soon as Gunnar announces Hilda. I had no idea if he would go along with my thoughts, but he did. He did, and I couldn't be more proud. I know being Alpha is important to him, but the Alpha position wasnever his. It was meant for Hilda.His face says it all. He is content. I turn my attention to Hilda as she clears her throat, and I smile. She looks shocked, shocked but happy. The entire hall is clapping and howling for Hilda, and glee is literally bubbling inside of me. The air inside the hall is humming with the pack's happiness. To know that I had something to do with these feelings feels fantastic. This is how it should have always been.This is how Silver Tail was meant to be. The sins of Gunnar's father are being washed away, and I know our pack will prosper because Hilda is a true Alpha. A great Alpha. While Gunnar was improving at the position, he would have never been a natur

GUNNAR POVI knock on my old office door, and Hilda growls from the other side. I laugh as I push open the door. This is going to be a fun new relationship."I didn't want to disturb you, Alpha," I state with a grin, and my sister shoots me a glare."Is there a reason why you are disturbing me while I am trying to catch up on YOUR old paperwork," Hilda asks while rolling her eyes?"Well, Alpha Malcolm and Alpha Arne just crossed the border. They will be at the packhouse soon. Where do you want to hold the meeting," I ask while avoiding her statement about paperwork?I definitely won't miss that part of being Alpha. To be honest, I won't miss any parts of being Alpha, sitting in an office, worrying about each pack member—planning or budgeting events. I was terrible at it all. Now I get to deliver information, and all the final decisions rest on Hilda's shoulders. Not to mention all the free time I can spend with Vanessa."Here in the office.

VANESSA POVI smile as Gunnar answers my question through our mindlink. He knows me too well."Earth to Ness. Where didyou just go," Rosy demands and I instantly feel guilty."Rosalind I need to tell you something. Something that is going to annoy you," I explain while grimacing.Rosy's eyebrows raise. She knows when I use her full name what I am about to say is serious. I clear my throat and fold my hands."I was just mindlinking Gunnar..... Apparently it is a direct mental link that only true mates have.......you and Jaxon have it too. The last Alpha didn't teach low ranking members about the link. Why I don't know.....That's why the other night Gunnar ordered for there to be a school built. He wants everyone to be properly educated because he realized what a problem you .....," I say and Rosy jumps to her feet.I cringe in preparation."I COULD HAVE ALERTED JAX. LARS COULD HAVE BEEN SAVED. WE WOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN IN DANGER.

I don't need to read the message to know theother Alphas have arrived, and it is time to get the weaker wolves into the safe room.All I want is two more minutes with the naked Goddess in my arms. Her news about her friend alarmed me last night. It stirred up feelings I have never had before. And now it is all I can think about. It is all I want. Pups with my mate. Dark-haired, green-eyed pups, running all around.A small growl of happiness escapes from my chest at the image of our future pups, and Vanessa shifts in my arms.

VANESSA POV"Okay, I have a deck of cards,three books, monopoly, and Life," I say, spreading out my games so the others can see them."I brought battleship and two books," Rosy says, adding her games to mine.A couple of the other Omegas also pull out decks of cards for everyone to play with.The medium-sized room is packed with slim but tall bodies. There are at least thirty female Omegas and about fifteen male Omegas. And while the room is a little stuffy, everyone seems to be in a good mood. I smile as I turn my attention back to Rosy."Ready to be defeated in battleship," I taunt while wagging my eyebrows at her.Rosy rolls her eyes and scoffs. Jaxon just smiles at our interaction. He kisses Rosy's forehead before sliding through the compacted bodies to reach another male."Bring it, Ness," she says, with a playful growl, and we sit down Indian style in the back of the crowded room."So have you thought of any names,"
