Unknown POV  We searched her house and got nothing. Her scent has weakened in the area and no one’s seen her in town either. Has she really left town because of the two dumbasses who threw a brick through her window? Or was it because of that alpha? He really has stepped on the wrong toes. Passing back and forth in the cabin we have on the side of the mountains.“ Did you find anything??” I groaned to my men who reacted out to everyone we know “ She's back in the US sir.” One spoke out She went back to the US? She left the moment I destroyed her home, everything she ever loved I took from her. And I’d do it again if it meant to get her out of hiding. That’s it!!! 

I woke up this morning with her not in the bed. I was confused as hell on where she went till I went downstairs and saw her cooking breakfast for everyone. She was facing the counter with her back towards me she had on a long baby blue buttoned up shirt and some shorts on. “ you know you don’t have to do that anymore?” I announced but I think my outburst scared her by her jumping and dropping the spatula on the ground “ I am sorry I didn’t mean to scare you.” I chuckled “ it- uh - it’s okay” she huffed picking up the spatula and taking it over to the sink to clean it off “ I know I don’t have to cook it’s just I couldn’t sleep after waking up at 6am so I came down here a

“ So what can you tell us about these hunters?” I asked her to make her a sandwich just the way she likes it, three slices of ham, mayo, mustard and a pickle on the side with mustard on it. With a glass of sweet tea “ Thank you. And not much I’ve only come across one, once or twice from a distance.” She said taking a bite out of her pickle “ well I’ll take what I can get anything would be helpful” I assured her making myself food as well  “ Well to start I meant it when I said that they are violent. If they get their hands on you they will tear you apart limb by limb. Leaving nothing for the imagination and if you are found by anyone, there isn’t any way you’d be recognized. When I took off to leave the US I ran into a scared woman who was running for her life. She asked for my help to save her friend who wa

After my talk with Charlotte I made a pack meeting and tried to apologize about my lack of participation. They all forgave me and were glad to hear that I realized what was happening. After the meeting I schedule myself into the pack's activities and I’ve never felt happier. Being more involved is what I was missing, not needing someone to share the load with. Not that it’s not nice to have her around, she makes the place beautiful and warm.  “ Shut up!” I groan at myself. We aren’t supposed to be thinking of her that way anymore strictly professionally I remind myself. But I've closed myself off from the rest of the workd which I've been told doesn't help with depression. Walking around the office I can’t help but think about the issues the packs have had. I didn’t realize how much care the town really needed, new buildings, more financial help, and just more care. I told the members to make a list

We took the wolf back to the pack house cellar, he refused to shift so we had to carry him in wolf form, Alex did. No way in hell was I going to be strong enough to carry him. He doesn’t look good though. He’s pretty skinny for a wolf and his fur looks as if he’s falling out, I kinda feel sorry for him. The walk back was quiet besides the pouting, and  whimpering the wolf made. I had Alex agree to get him checked out before interrogating him. He wanted to argue at first and say he’s just a cast out rogue who is probably too weak to handle himself. I mean I can see where he would have a point but that shouldn’t be something any alpha should throw someone out for but Alex explained there are ones like that more than I think there are. When we got back to the packhouse we had him checked out in wolf form and told him once he shifts we would need him to get checked out again. I didn’t follow them down to the cellar as they carried him down because it
