Chapter 0370 - Knox ~ We greet the warriors outside, the leader nodding toas I stand next to Jaxon.
"Is Miss Josie okay?" His eyes firmly locked on mine.
"She's fine, I don't think he was a real threat." "Yes, I think it was just a case of wrong timing. The bouncers on the door said he entered with a group of females when we questioned why he was allowed to enter in the first place. Whether they covered his scent or the bouncer's eyes were elsewhere." I think the eyes would have been the issue, but perhaps this Than is more of a threat if he entered the premises in an underhanded way.

For the alpha family, things had gone from zero to a hundred miles per hour in the space of only a few seconds. Whereas it was Josie that was the one in the firing line..yet again. Sure, she was never in any real threat, this male just wanted to stick his nose where it wasn't wanted...but it could have been so much worse.
"We drove him back to the Amber Desert pack, his warriors intercepted us. They were quite surprised to find their alpha within our car." The warrior reports, earning a chuckle from Hector.
We all turn to find the sound of people talking across the path that leads to the alpha home. When Beta Alora and Ezra enter a clearing, Hector's voice reduces to an almost mute command. "Not a word to anyone, especially not to your Luna's sister, understood?" "Yes Alpha." The warriors tilt their necks in submission before they scatter away towards the pack house, passing both Alora and Ezra on the way.
"A warrior's report, everything okay?" Ezra's eyes narrow as the two of them cto a halt in front of us. Beta Riley was on border patrol and will give his end of day report shortly, however, Ezra being a past beta himself picks up on the unusual situation of a warrior's direct report to the Alpha. Usually the warriors report to the beta. "Yes of course, Alora perhaps I can borrow Ezra for a short while." "I'll be inside." She softly smiles after nodding but eyeing both Hector and the rest of us suspiciously.
One Alora was in the alpha house, we start walking in silence. It isn't until we reach the meadows that I realise Hector wants to make use of Josie's cabin, where we certainly won't be overheard.
The five of us entering into his office, past Josie and Kaia will look far too suspicious now to Alora.
I have to swallow down the lump in my throat as I close the door behind me. The entire cabin smells of Josie, her scent more than just lingering...it was seeping out of the wooden walls.
It went against my instinct to be in here without her, to be able to smell her so clearly but not be able to touch her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What's the reason for taking us all the way out here?" Ezra makes light of the change in location, a carefree smile upon his face...until it drops and is replaced with panic.
"Somethings wrong?" "Yes!" Hector turns to him, before he closes the gap between them and to my surprise, places a hand upon his shoulder.
"Than approached Josie at Jude's restaurant this evening..." Hector starts but is cut off by Ezra.
"What?" Ezra gasps as he eyes fall upon me.
"You need to leave, and take Alora with you." The content is off om novelenglish.net!
"Yes, yes...we will leave first thing tomorrow morning. What did he say, what did he want?"
Without knowing the facts I would say they were acting irrationally, I mean what chance did a washed out drunken alpha have against the powerful Dark Phantom and Clear Waters pack. Why were Hector and Kaia so keen on getting Alora away from here, and why keep it from her yet openly discuss it with Ezra.
