Do you think that all the 'guests, are reasonable.
Wendy“Yorick...” I begin.“I will have words with Hacker. I know you’ve been working with him. Is he Alpha Lane?” he asks me.I shake my head. “That’s Hijack.”“Why were you on the phone with him?”“He was prepping me for this meeting. He used my computer, so he’d have a trail to follow. He told me he made sure there was nothing illegal on it, so I didn’t have to worry,” I say.He turns and looks at Hijack. He’s talking with Henry.“No more secrets, Wendy. You’re underage. I’m proud of you for getting early acceptance to the Academy, but the Tech Team are NOT to take liberties with you.”“They haven’t, Yorick. I swear. I worked with Tracker too. They’ve all been wonderful. I promise,” I tell him. “Please don’t tell Dad. He may not let me keep in contact with the Tech Team if he does and I KNOW Connor won’t. He’s already wondering who Alpha Lane is. Please Yorick,” I plead.Yorick is still glaring in the direction of the Tech Team. When I look, I see Hacker watching us.Finally, Yorick
YorickI’m so excited that Cyra is here. I didn’t want to ask her to come because it means she’s missing classes, but I really wanted to see her.“We don’t have time to do a full round of introductions. They’re ready for us inside. Can you stay afterward, Cyra? We can all go to lunch.”“Of course,” she says. I kiss her again and then lead the group inside. When we get to the court room where the Council is already seated, I make sure Cyra is settled beside my mother and sisters and then I lead Wendy to the front. I squeeze her hand briefly to let her know that I’m here for her.As we walk forward, I see the Tech Team on my left. They are in a triangular formation with Tracker at point. They are standing in the exact same position, legs shoulder width apart with their hands clasped in front of them. As we walk up, I’m pretty sure I see Hacker and Hijack wink at Wendy. When I glance at my sister, I see her blushing.Standing to the right of the room are Alpha Nevaeh, and Warriors Callie,
TrackerI follow Raptor out of the dining hall and into a private area where we can talk. He looks around, making sure we’re alone before turning back to me.He scrubs his hands over his face. “I couldn’t have found you at a worse possible time. I can’t stay, not right now.”“I know. You’re in the middle of an operation, an operation you’re running,” I say to him. I do work for all of the elite warriors, tracking down the people they’re looking for so they don’t waste time hunting for someone who has already moved. Raptor was promoted to his position two years ago and runs a very effective team.He sighs and looks at me. “I’m Kit, codename Raptor. You probably don’t have your codename yet,” he says. He must think I’m a first year.“I know who you are, Raptor. I’m Tracker,” I say and smile at the stunned look on his face.“You’re Tracker?”I raise an eyebrow. “You were expecting a man, perhaps?”“No. Well, yes. But I was expecting someone ... geeky. Not some gorgeous woman who looks lik
Cyra“It didn’t take you long to find a replacement for poor Yorick, did it, Cyra?” Megan asks with a sneer as she walks up to the table.Her hand snakes out, reaching for Hacker’s note. I fork slams down on the note, just missing Megan’s hand.“Careful, Megan. That’s a good way to lose your fingers,” Piper growls.“You’re a fucking bitch,” Megan growls at her.“Don’t be jealous just because I’m getting fucked by a hot guy and no one wants to touch your skanky pussy,” Piper says, sneering at her.I’m not the only one who snorts, trying to hold back a laugh.Megan growls and turns, stomping away.“You’re so fucking hot,” Zach tells her as we watch Megan go. Piper has just pulled the fork out of the table when all hell breaks loose. What looks like a SWAT team blasts through the doors of the dining hall, carrying guns and wearing bullet proof vests.We all stand, ready to fight if this is an attack.“Who the hell are they?” I murmur.“They’re you in a couple of years,” Tracker says, mate
CyraTwenty million dollars. My father sold me out for twenty million dollars.“At least I’m not cheap,” I murmur.I feel Piper’s arm come around me. “Try to eat something. You know Yorick will ask if you ate when you talk to him later,” she says softly.I nod. I know he will.“Hijack said he has some ideas and Yorick said he has some ideas too. Remember, you’re not alone anymore, Cyra. You have people who love you and people who are willing to fight for you,” Landon says.“Apparently you have a lot of them. I don’t know how many people there are in Yorick’s family, but if Wendy is any indication, they are a passionate bunch,” Zach says.I smile, thinking of Wendy’s commitment to fight for me. “That was very sweet of her, but I’m sure her parents wouldn’t let her fight in any kind of battle. She’s not eighteen yet,” I say.“She’s an Alpha female and based on the little of her that I saw, she’s ripped. If she’s applying for the Academy next year, she’ll be a lot like Yorick, meaning she
Yorick‘Hey, where are you?’ Wendy’s asks in mind link. I’ve just spent the last couple of hours going over what’s been happening at the Academy with Connor, Quirin, and Henry. They’re ready to go straight to the Board and the Council, but I told them to wait.‘My room. I'm about to get on a call with the Academy’s IT team. You want to join me?’ I ask. She’s done a lot of the prep work that has helped me get the information that I needed. If she wants to see where this is going, I’ll let her.‘On my way,’ she says and a moment later there’s a knock at my door.“Come in, Wendy,” I say as I dial into the meeting that Hacker sent me earlier. I turn making sure it’s her before turning back to my computer.“Who’s Alpha Lane?” I ask.“Henry really said something about him?”“Sure did. You can expect Connor to ask about him later.”“Ridiculous,” she murmurs.“You dating this guy?” I ask, turning to her as I wait to be accepted into the meeting.“No, it’s not like that.”“Be careful, I know so
