“Why are you upset, Moon?” Damon asks through the bedroom door.
I slip on some sweats. “Come in.”
He moves quickly to my side. “What happened?”
“I have a friend who I left in my old pack… Do you accept bears and wolves as mates?”
“Yes, one hundred percent.”
I smile. I can see that he is being real with me. “Will you accept the transfer? She is a wolf, her mate is a bear, and they have two kids. They have lived outside the pack, in the woods, for years.”
His jaw tightens. “I hate fuckers like that. We have a house available for them, if they want to come. I can send someone to pick them up.”
I grip his hand, wanting to soothe his anger. “I will tell her. Thank you, Damon.” I am so glad that he is the way he is. I am not sure I could have accepted an alpha or a mate with a different mentality.
“Now, out with you. I have to get ready.” I wink, and he backs out of the room. His hair and the back of his shirt are still wet. He gently shuts the door, and I walk back into the bathroom to call her. I would love to have a woman around here. An alpha female can’t be a true alpha unless she has her own chain of command.
She picks up instantly. “Hello?” Her voice is shaking.
“Hey, Olive. I talked to him.” She sucks in a deep breath. I can hear her kids playing in the background and Randall asking her what is wrong.
“What did he say? Kids, go play outside.” A few moments later I hear the door shut. “You’re on speakerphone.”
I fill her in on Damon’s offer, and she starts crying. “Are you sure? We are welcome to be ourselves?”
Damon comes back into the room and holds out his hand.
“Here, speak with him.”
Damon presses his hand to the small of my back, and goose bumps trail down my spine.
“This is Damon, the alpha of The Knights Pack,” he says. Olive quits crying, and I can hear Randall breathing through the phone.
“Alpha,” Randall says.
“You are welcome, your kids are welcome. We already have bears in our pack, along with other breeds.”
“We will join,” Randall says and I smile.
“I will send a car for you, when do you want to come? We have a house for you, furnished, and everything you will need.”
He is just perfect. I can tell that he is mean and badass when he needs to be, but he will not lead with an iron hand. He gives respect and compassion. This makes him the most deadly of alphas. He will be loved, and that makes him dangerous—because his pack will follow him to the end.
“As soon as possible,” Randall says.
“I will have a car for you in the morning.”
“Thank you,” Olive says and I smile, hearing her sweet voice.
“You’re most welcome, we need some pups and cubs around here,” Damon says. I sense that this makes her feel better; she was worried about her children. Alphas can sense someone’s emotions. I’ve always had this ability—so, deep down, I’ve always known I would become an alpha female.
Damon says goodbye and hands me back my phone. “Rough life for them, wasn’t it?”
“I can’t imagine being secluded like that, not having a proper bond with the pack and being forced away from everyone.”
He nods and touches my cheek. “You have a good heart, Moon.”
I smile, blushing slightly at his praise. “So do you, Alpha.”
