I smile politely and nod. “Thank you, Gaspard.”
He reciprocates the smile and lowers his head respectfully.
“I won’t disappoint you, Alpha.”
“I know.”
He stands up, bowing his head once more before he leaves the office
and I sit back..
His behaviour was… strange.
But perhaps by mentioning the Blood Born as he suggested would weed out those who know about it if
I show them why I’m here.
If only there was something to show I believe in their cause. It’s clear they are clever… assuming that
they are the ones behind these attacks.
Gaspard obviously had the same men tality as me, where he has faith in Selene and respect for those
who channel their inner wolf. But is he more of a Sable or a Sublime believer? I want to know what
others-
I sit forward suddenly, an idea coming to me, and my heart ski ps a
beat.
F uck! This is it! To weed them out.
What if I pretend to have the same me ntality as them?
Even if that means acting a little extreme… forcing those who believe in the Sable Triquetra to think I
am on their side!
My heart thuds as I stand up quickly and rush to the office door.
“Gaspard!” I shout, seeing him round the corner. He stops and looks

back.
“Alpha?”
“There’s something else I want to ask,” I say quietly.
He nods slowly and I smooth my hair back.
What if he knows more…
“Of course.” He walks back over to me, and I smile.
“I have to go with Alpha Sebastian to the Dark Hollow Falls Pack as we are together again… however,
what you said about the Blood Born really hit something inside. I want the people to know the meaning.
behind us. Do you know anyone else who is as passionate about our goddess and her will as we are?
Those who could back me and even teach me the right way?” I ask smoothly.
I hope I don’t sound like a freak…
He smiles and seems to mull over what I said. “I can find out, but if you are to leave, then perhaps you
can tell them prior to leaving?” He suggests solemnly.
“Yes, I like that idea. I think I will.” I say.
“I can’t wait. Thank you for listening, Alpha.”
I smile before he lowers his head and walks off and I turn back to my office, thinking of a plan.
Tonight, under the moon… in the forest… we will hold a gathering…
This time… I don’t plan to tell anyone my idea, because right now I can’t trust even those around me…
The secrets or the lies…
Well, I guess it’s time to get the gathering put into place… a request to all werewolves who can come to
the forest when the moon is shining
in the sky.

No manners and reputation will be important, save the ranks of us- as werewolves.
I return early after sending out the request. Stepping inside, silence greets me, and I look around the
hall.
There’s not even a sound from the children….
“Hello?” I call down the hallway. “Mom?”
No one,
The guards are outside. Where is everyone?
“Sebastian!” I call.
The sound of footsteps makes me turn and I see a nurse step out of Valerie’s room. “Ma’am, the
children have gone with Alpha Sebastian and your father. No one is home.”
“Oh? Where?”
“I do not know, I’m sorry.” She says politely.
I nod slowly. “And Jai? And Mom?” I ask.
“I’m not sure about Mr O’Dell, but Ms Walton said she had a few errands to run since you will be
leaving tomorrow.”
Hmm, I did tell her that in the morning…
But why are Dad and Sebastian together?
I head to Valerie’s room. It’s strange for Jai and Mom both not to be here. Someone is always with her.
The nurse steps back in as she continues with her checks.

“Who left first, Mom or Jai?” I ask.
“Mr O’Dell.” She responds as she takes Valerie’s blood pressure.
I fall silent, letting her do her work. After taking her reading down on the chart, she turns Valerie onto
her side.
“She’s getting better.” She tells me proudly and I smile, happy to hear that. “Excuse me.”
She leaves the room, leaving me along with Valerie. I stand up, my smile fading as I circle the bed. I
was so confident that the full moon would heal her, but since then there’s not been any progress or
activity.
