We may be able to take Jacob out but let’s be real, we don’t have the numbers to take the council.

We have the alphas.

Even with their help I don’t know if it will be enough to take them out, we have hundreds of wolves they have thousands.

Why are doing this?

Because I have been so blinded by rage that I was willing to let everyone fight when the reality of it is I would have got them all killed!

They know the risks––

No, they don’t!

“Jess?” I shove Sheba back in her cage and turn to Vince.

“Yeah?” I didn’t mean for that to sound as harsh as it did.

“I just wanted to check and see how you were holding up.” The air rushes out of me, I’m being a bitch and taking my frustration out on Vince.

“I honestly don’t know; I feel for Creed and the others but that’s about it. Shelley was our mom, but we never knew her, I know she sacrificed a lot for my brother and I but…”

“I understand.”

“I don’t think you do.”

“You feel like you have to be sad because of who she was to you, but then you don’t want to be sad because you think if you are that it will make you seem like an asshole, because Creed, Cole and Callie actually knew their father whereas you never knew your mother?” I reel back in shock and just stare at him, how the hell does he know that? “Your feelings no matter how big or small are warranted and valid, don’t ever let someone tell you otherwise.” Too stunned to utter a word, I just nod my head and watch as he goes back to standing by Davina. Just as I begin to turn back to the window, a thought hits me. I turn toward my brother and Z and make my way over to them, Ro smiles when he sees me coming once I’m close enough, Zeke wraps an arm around my shoulders and pulls me into his side giving me a side hug. I smile up at him and am just about to thank him when I’m suddenly ripped out of his hold by a growling Creed.

“Don’t fucking touch her!” I pull out of Creed’s hold and glare at him, I know he is hurting but that doesn’t give him the right to be an ass to Zeke.

“Dude, I was just giving her a hug to comfort her.” Creed sighs and shakes his head; his shoulders droop and a defeated look crosses his features which guts me to see. I grip his hand in mine and smile apologetically at Zeke as I lead Creed from the room and down the hallway to his old room. Once inside I kick the door shut and release his hand then head over to the bed and sit down, he paces back and forth stopping every once and a while to look at me then continue pacing. He tugs on the strands of his hair in frustration I don’t know how to get through to him, so I decide to try switch things up, I stand and begin to undress which catches his attention. He stops and stares at me open mouthed as I stand before him butt naked, he takes a step toward me but stops when I begin to shift. Within seconds I’m on all fours and shaking out my coat, letting Sheba take control.

“You’re beautiful little alpha.” Sheba chuffs at being calledlittlewhich elects a small laugh from Creed, He comes toward us and drops to his knees, he reaches out and buries his hands in our fur. Sheba rubs up against his face then he hauls us forward and buries his face in the side of our neck and… weeps.

Holy fucking shit.

Is he?

Sheba, Creed is literally crying!

Sheba stands there stiff as a board while our mate clings to us and breaks down, I have never seen him cry before and it is breaking my heart. I’m at a loss as to what I should do until it hits me, I open the link between Creed and me.

Shift, let Corbin take over and numb the pain for a while.

I can feel him nod against our neck, a few moments pass and then he jumps to his feet and opens the door, Sheba stares at him in confusion for a moment until he says.

“So, we can get out when I shift.”Ahhhh, that’s really smart, I hadn’t thought about that. Creed begins to undress and much to my utter dismay Sheba turns away and I growl at her.

Humans.

What the hell does that mean?

Why do you all get weird over skin, seeing their butthole is much better.

I cringe and balk at the idea of judging Creed on the fact that he has nice… asshole. Oh god, I couldn’t think of anything worse than that. Creed has shifted and this is the first time we are both in our wolf form together, Sheba and Corbin circle each other until Sheba stops and stands tall, Corbin follows her lead but a moment later he closes the space between us and nuzzles our neck, Sheba to my shock does the same and she makes a weird noise which reminds me of a cat purring.

Do you want to go for a run?

Now?
