“May I ask why you and the women don’t stay in the Nightfall City, not that I don’t want you here or anything, but most
werewolves stick to the cities and with packs?” she asks curiously. I shrug, “We don’t like the hierarchy or politics.” I
chuckle.

“Well, it’s about time everyone starts integrating. We have more issues from the human communities than the werewolf ones,”
she shakes her head. “Bloody vandals graffitied my back entrance last week. Took all day to remove their tags.” she shakes her
head. She glances around at all the empty box
“I will try to get back onto the supplier later and see how long it will take, if it gets too bad I may have to make the trek to
Crestview City instead,” she groans, and I smile sadly, feel ing bad for her. Crestview City was a six-hour drive and also a human
city.
The boys start stirring, so I bid farewell to Taylor and walk back to the car Sondra gave me. Loading the boys into their car seats,
I climb in, glancing around before pulling my breast pads out that were full, my boobs were rock hard and so sore. I replace them
before driving home.
However, as I pull into the long driveway, I notice the barn doors open, and tables set up. Balloons hung along the fence posts,
and a huge sign hung above the barn doors saying. Welcome Home Alpha.

Noleen race straight over, helping get the boys out while I look for the source of this, knowing Sondra faked a sicky. Spotting her,
I point to her, and she smiles brightly, pointing to herself, and I nod.
“What is that old duck up to now?” Lexa laughs, peering out my eyes. “No idea, but she is in trouble,” I tell her. Lexa laughs,
“Yeah right, I reckon she would kick our ass from one end of this ranch to the other,” Lexa snickers. She was proba bly right.
Sondra was one tough cookie.
“What is all this?” I demand, motioning to the tables of food, and all the decorations.
“Did Micheal not drop your letter off.” she asks and my brows furrow. Leaning back in the car, I retrieve it from the front seat. I
shake my head, tearing it open and pulling out the document, just as Sondra stops beside me.

“Now only one more step to go. We thought we would cel ebrate before the women officially submit to their new Alpha and make
us all officially a pack.” Noleen says, coming over with Bane in her arms. Tears well in my eyes seeing my new name and title on
the paper. Even if it isn’t official until they all submit.

I waited all my life for this title to be handed down to me, only this felt even better because I earned it instead. They chose me to
be their Alpha, it wasn’t some birthright hand me down title, I earned it this time.
“You are officially the first-ever female Alpha in history,” Michelle says, rocking Kyan in her arms. He squirms, and I chew my lip,
looking at Sondra. “Thank you,” I whisper, and she motions to the women. “Thank them, they are your pack. I am just someone
who gets to watch you put them Alpha’s in their place,”

“I guess that means it won’t take long before Nightfall City hears about a new pack living on the outskirts of the city,” I groan,
seeing already how that could become a dilemma. “We’ Il deal with each issue as it arises,” Sondra assure me, and I nod. Bane
cries out, and I reach for him, knowing the boys are hungry.
“I just need to feed them, I couldn’t pick up any formula. Supply and demand issues,” I tell Sondra when one of the women sing
out. “I have extra formula,” Lily sings out.
“Thanks Lil, but for now I need to empty these bad boys, could damn knock someone out with how hard they are right now.” I
chuckle, looking around. “Cakes in the back for the kids, if someone can unload them.”

and celebrated our new little pack. The kids roasted marsh mallows around the fire and as the night settled down, every one was
in cheery moods when Noleen stood up along with the rest of the women. I peered up at them, nerves filling me knowing now
they were about to submit, I just hoped I was good enough and could make them proud to call me Alpha. However, as I stood,
Sondra comes rushing out of the main house. The door slammed against the wall, making everyone turn to look at her.
“Elena, Elena!” I turn, wondering if it is the boys who are fast asleep inside where it was warm when I see her waving a phone in
the air.
“It’s Luke!” she calls out, and my eyes widen as I race to ward her. Lexa shoves forward with me in a panic. Luke knows never to
call the house phone. It wasn’t safe. So the fact he did tells me it was important.
“Elena?” he chokes.
“Luke, where is mom? Why are you calling this number?”
“I ran away, I had no choice,” he whimpers. I look around at the women crowding around me, wanting to know what is go
ing on.
“Where are you?”

“I climbed out a window in the bathrooms, and broke into the school to use the phone,” he sobs. My heart breaks, hear ing the
fear in his voice. “Luke, where is mom?” I ask him, and he breaks down.
“Please Elena, you have to help her,” he chokes out, and I look at Sondra she must have heard him because she stalks off
toward the house.
“What happened?”
“Dad found out about her filing for divorce, her locked her in the basement.”
“He what?” .
“He let her out today because he needed help at the pack meeting,” he hiccups, and I press the phone harder to my ear. Lexa
presses closer, enhancing my hearing, so I could hear through his choked sobs and hiccups.
“Are you safe?” I ask him when I see Sondra walk out the doors.
“No, he is looking for me. Elena mom humiliated him at the pack meeting, she ... she..”
“Luke, what did mom do?”
“She rejected him....in front of everyone.”
“Mom, can’t reject dad, Luke. They have marked each oth ér.” I assure him. He sobs harder.
“She did, and it worked. Dad collapsed, but when he woke up, he dragged her out by her hair, and I took off. But I don’t know
where he took her.” he tells me. My brows furrow. How was my mother was able to reject him? How is that even possi ble? I
always believed that once you were marked and mated, there was no way out of a bond.
“Luke! I know you’re in here!” I hear my father yell out in the background. My breath lodges in my throat when I hear Luke
whimper.
“Hide.” I hiss at him, and I hear him running. I move to Son
dra, and she tosses her keys to me just as I hear Luke drop the phone and scream. “There you are,” My father snarls. My heart
nearly leaps out of my throat before the phone goes dead.
“We need to get home,” Lexa says, shoving, forward with me. Adrenaline coursed through my veins when Sondra looked at me
while I tried to figure out what to do. “Go, we’ll watch the boys.”
I fumble with the keys, the party long forgotten, and race toward her car. Yet one thing remained: Axton would know the moment
I stepped into that city, but I couldn’t abandon my brother, not when he needed me and not when mom and his life were in
danger.
