Lily’s pov There was some discussion on what to do with the Midnight Blood pack, for starters they are hours away which makes it a bit tricky for them to merge with our pack. Secondly none of us has ever been to the Midnight Blood pack and we have no idea what kind of pack we are dealing with or who is left. So eventually it was decided that Osiris and I would be visiting them together with some soldiers. Beta Riker would stay behind to make sure our pack was in order and everyone who needed help received it. Although most of the fight was in the woods, there still was some damage down to the city and to the farmers. I had told Osiris and the rest that I didn’t want to wait to join their pack until after we returned. I’d feel much better knowing I could mindlink everyone and be able to talk to them when we were away. So tomorrow we are doing my ceremony at night and soon after we will drive to the Midnight pack. We’ll arrive early morning. I sometimes wish I could have the big ceremo

Osiris’ pov My grandmother?! “Let’s go upstairs and get her some clean clothes and some food,” I said while I was wracking my brain as to way Kendrick would put his grandmother in the dungeon. And what did Neron mean when he said he thought she got out? Lily asked  Neron if someone else could show us around so he could care for his mother. I added “when you’re finished I would like a word with both of you.” Neron seemed to mindlink someone, because soon a woman stood in front of us looking equally shocked to see Neron’s mother. “Alpha Osiris, this is my mate Jean. She will take you to our training grounds, where our Gamma can show you around.” Jean walked ahead while Lily and I held hands “are you okay Osiris? Is that really your grandmother?” I squeezed Lily’s hand “I think so. I don’t understand why Kendrick would do this to his own family. Especially after they refused any contact with my mother.” She took my hand to her mouth and kissed it “I am sure we wil

Osiris’ pov “That was pretty hot seeing her take control, it reminded me of when she used to get mad at you” Santos said. I laughed “I thought you were too busy trying to kill Gamma Leo to see Lily.” Santos was trying really hard to take over and kill Gamma Leo on the spot, but I didn’t want to snap his neck while everyone was watching me. I wanted the pack to see that I was different from my brother. But apparently Santos had still time to appreciate our mate. “I can multi-task you know. Lily always comes first even if I was looking forward to killing that bastard slowly for calling her a bitch.” I might still kill Gamma Leo, I just needed to discuss some things with the pack first. Neron had told everyone to come over tonight, so Lily and I still had some time left to finish what we started. I grabbed Lily’s hand and took her back to the packhouse, almost running. “Why are you in such a hurry?” Lily asked curiously. I didn’t say a word until we were in our

Osiris’ pov Lily was raging beside me, clearly pissed that I let Neron and Jean off so easily. Santos was equally pissed and trying to take over “they hired the rogues. They hired Arden. If it wasn’t for them our mate wouldn’t have been taken. They killed our pack members!” I tried to calm Santos down “I know, but I can’t take another child from my grandmother. And they have kids. I can’t start killing people on the first day here.” I turned my attention to Lily, Santos would have to wait. “Lily please. I need you to calm down. Go outside if you can’t.” Lily looked at me pissed and walked away. “This is not over,” she mindlinked me. “You have every right to be angry, but I can’t just kill him. Not in front of his mother, not after she just got him back.” Lily walked outside and I send a soldier to trail behind her. I turned to face Neron, Jean and Dionne. “You can say your goodbyes, pack your things and leave.” I locked eyes with Dionne, she nodded as if she underst

Osiris’ pov Goddess, how I hate numbers. Riker is meticulous with our finances and he makes sure everything is easy for me to find. He has excel sheets and diagrams, everything to make it effortless for me. It is not that I don’t know how to do this, Beta William taught me when my parents died. I just don’t like it. “Stop whining like a bitch and get this done so you can go and get your reward” Santos said annoyed. It’s not like he likes numbers anymore than I do. I sat down behind Kendrick’s desk and looked through all the files until I found was I was looking for. Turns out Kendrick was spending all the pack money on one goal, to get us back. There had been very little money given to education, but a lot to training. Maybe that’s why Gamma Leo was so loyal, he was getting a big paycheck. It looked like the money that Kendrick had came from selling ground, that must have been when he took over other packs. He also seemed to lend out his soldiers to other pa
