Chapter 9
Quincy waited in the hallway between Alpha Daryl’s room and Luna Emma’s room. He linked Leo to meet with him in an hour. He would make sure that Emma was always protected. Then he decided to check on Ivan. ‘Hey man, how are you doing,’ he asked through their link. ‘I’m good. I think in a few weeks I will be ready to train again. I’m stiff and need to get these muscles moving.’ Quincy was glad to hear that Ivan was going so well. They were worried that he would be paralyzed, but their quick response time had allowed the doctors to repair some of the damage. After that, his natural werewolf healing fixed the rest. ‘That’s great. If you’re feeling up to it, I’m having a meeting with Leo in an hour and would like your input. I know you won’t be able to help physically, bit another set of eyes on thing is always helpful.’ Ivan was a good warrior, and he would be the perfect person to manage the security o

Emma tucked her blouse into her skirt and checked her reflection in the floor length mirror on her closet door. She wanted to look happy and confident, so she chose a cream-colored top with a light floral-patterned skirt and pink flats. Today she really needed to convince the pack that everything was going to be fine. She didn’t want them to worry about her ability to handle things. If they didn’t feel confident in her ability to lead them, someone may get brave enough to challenge her. Word spreads quickly, and someone from outside the pack could challenge her as well. She was confident in her fighting skills, but she didn’t want to fight while pregnant. She ran her hand through her shoulder length brown hair, wishing that she had better skills at fixing it. Today it was just down and straight. She didn’t want to look like she put in too much effort, but she would like to be one of those women who always had a cute hairstyle. Sighing, she linked Quincy. ‘I’m ready whenever you are.’

Quincy packed his bag with quiet anticipation. The last two weeks had been hard for him; he felt pulled in two different directions lately. He was glad to be part of the investigation with Alpha Liu's team, but he worried about Emma the entire time. He knew she was much more capable than he gave her credit for, but he didn't like feeling as if he was abandoning her to take care of everything on her own. He was worried about how the stress of it all would affect her and the baby. So far the pack hadn't had any major problems, but there was always the chance that someone would see this situation as an opportunity to take control and challenge Emma. Without Alpha Daryl or him there, she would have to fight the challenger herself. Quincy shuddered at the thought. He threw his pack over his shoulder and shook hands with the rest of the team. "You guys are amazing. Great work. I will be happy to report back to the Luna that we have captured three men involved. I suspect she will want to c

Emma packed a small bag and sat at her computer. She was going to do some digging before she left to interview these men that had been captured by Alpha Liu’s team. She felt overwhelmed with the need to know if this was her fault. If it was, she didn’t know what she would do to fix the fact that she had made her mate a target. She also didn’t know what she would do if it wasn’t her fault. Right now she was focused on one thing alone and that was discovering where the threat came from. Once she had the answer to that, she would figure out the next step. Her keys clicked as she furiously typed. “I need to be two steps ahead, and I don’t like the unknown,” she muttered to herself. An alarm went off on her phone and she closed her computer. She would have to do more digging later. Now it was time to go. She grabbed her small bag and went downstairs to the front entrance. Beta Quincy was there waiting for her.“Are you sure that is a

Quincy paced in front of the door, wondering how much longer she was going to be. He could pick up faint noises, but the room was almost soundproof. He didn’t think she was in danger, but she had been in there too long. As he debated interrupting her, the door finally opened. Emma stood in the doorway covered in blood. Quincy rushed up to her, “Luna, are you okay?” Emma nodded, “It’s not my blood. I left them alive. I think I have all of the information we are going to get from those three. I will leave them for the team to deal with as they see fit. Leave one alive with instructions to go back to his leader with a message.” Quincy nodded, “Okay. What do you want him to say?” Emma looked at him with glowing yellow eyes. She was on the edge of shifting and at her most dangerous. He could feel the anger rolling off of her. “Tell them that the Luna of Broken Paw Pack is coming for them and not even Hell is a safe hiding place.” Quincy stepped away from her as she shifted into wolf form.

Quincy followed Emma up several flights of stairs and through a maze of hallways. Finally, she stopped and entered the room without knocking. An older couple was sitting at a desk talking quietly. When she approached they looked up, "Emma, we weren't expecting you. What has happened?' Emma hugged the man and the woman. "Mom, Dad, this is my Beta Quincy. I came to discuss with the King an attack on my mate. It appears that he has been targeted because he is a pure lycan." Her parents looked surprised. "It's nice to meet you, Beta Quincy. Come and have a seat with us. Tell us everything you know." Emma and Quincy told them about the attack and the investigation. When they were done, her parents were thoughtful. "Well, I don't think it's a good idea for you to be in the middle of this in your condition. How far along are you?" Emma blushed but told her parents about the baby. She shared with them her fears of Alpha Daryl not waking up before the birth. "Don't worry dear. You are strong.

Emma sat typing at her computer as she waited for her assistant to arrive, and her phone notification pinged. She checked her messages and read what Quincy had sent her. ‘Do you want me to go to your appointment with you today?’ She smiled softly and replied, ‘You don’t have to come, but it would be nice to have someone there with me.’ Today Dr. Adams was going to do her first ultrasound and she hoped to find out the gender of the baby. She only had six weeks left of her pregnancy and she couldn’t believe how fast it was going. Veronica interrupted her thoughts, “Good morning, Luna.” She sat at the desk across from Emma with her notepad. “Good morning. I will be out of the office for the rest of the day. I’m going to grab some lunch and then I have an appointment with Dr. Adams this afternoon. Please have the security schedule on my desk in the morning for Beta Quincy and me to review and approve. I also need a list of all active Lunas and possible guest speakers on topics that you th

Quincy peeked into Alpha Daryl’s room and saw Emma sleeping. Looking back at the warrior he brought his finger up to his lips to stay quiet. ‘It’s about time she got some rest. Let me know when she wakes up.’ Quincy left her resting with her mate. He went back to his suite and packed his bag. Hera would be taking over her security while he was gone. Today he would be meeting with Alpha Liu’s team. They had some information to share with him before they provided it to the Lycan security team and would be pulling it out after their meeting today. ‘Beta Quincy, there is someone at the pack border asking for you. It appears that they are alone.’ One of the pack warriors linked him with a little concern in their voice. Quincy left his packing and headed to find out what was going on. ‘Did they give you a name,’ he asked. ‘No. It’s an injured she-wolf. She said she was sent with a message.’ Quincy picked up the pace from a stern walk to a run. “What the fuck is going on,” he asked himself a

Emma sat at her desk with Veronica seated across from her. “I want to know as soon as Beta Quincy makes it back here. I also need to see our visitor when she wakes up. Let Dr. Adams know that she is not to leave or have any visitors without my permission. Not even Beta Quincy. There are too many unknowns. I’ve spoken to Leo and Ivan. They are assigning Paul to guard her until we know more about why she is here. I will be leaving soon for a meeting, and I need to know that things are going to be okay here while I’m gone.” Veronica nodded and took notes as she spoke. I have a list of things I want for the nursery. Please get with the maintenance crew to get it done. Once I return from this trip, I don’t anticipate leaving the pack until after the baby is born. Please schedule any meetings to be done via Zoom or they can travel to our pack if a face-to-face is necessary. Let me think if there is anything else.
