Please be careful of your accusations before you start letting them fly out of your mouth without any real thought. Gamma Brett links both of us. Her eyes go wide. I don't think she has ever been called out like that before, so used to getting away with flippant comments like that. He was far more calm than I would have been after days of her holding us back.
She's trying, but it's not any less frustrating.
"Sky to answer your question, we have started to think of those possibilities and work through them, and no, we would not use anyone as bait unknowingly.

The only good thing is her and Jeanie at least took my notes seriously and they have actually started participating in training, but they are years behind, which is painful for everyone involved.

We head back to the patrol cabin and check in before we all go our separate ways. I head off to Saturday morning training with the pups. They shoul actually be close to wrapping the first session up with the younger kids when I get there. It feels like forever since I have seen these kids, with the trials and the lockdown and can't wait to catch up with them. I didn't realize how much I would miss training with them. Getting to see their excited faces when they finally master something they have been working on forever.
When I walk into the arena, training is in full effect and for the first tever, I just stop to watch the beauty that is my pack. Each of the guys and Sierra have taken a group and they appear to be teaching release techniques for close combat. Everyone is sweaty and red-faced, but happy and engaged.

"What did you do?!" I ask excitedly as he grabs my hand and I can't help but be drawn in by his enthusiasm.

Every fiber of my being wants to tell him it's okay to callby the pet call name, but thank the Goddess that my brain is in charge. I just nod and then clear my throat.
"Umm, Brandon said he had something to show me." I look down at the boy still attached to my hand, looking up at us, completely oblivious to the moment that just passed.
"Yes! I totally took Alpha Cam down! It was the greatest thing EVER!"m Brandon has a crazed took, pumping his fists and his whole body is vibrating with excitement. 1 am fighting to hold back my laugh.
