“Fresh game! Did you just catch this?” She moves to help lift the deer off of me, calling out to two more omegas to take the deer and process it.
[I scented it on my run, and figured the pack could use it.] I link this she-wolf, watching as another look of surprise flashes through her mind. It is then that I realize I have never linked the omegas. My father ingrained into me that they were beneath us, as they were the weakest of the pack and only good for menial labor. But Kaylee taught me all wolves, no matter their strength, are equals in a pack. Without the omegas, the menial tasks would not be done, and we stronger wolves would not be able to focus on our jobs of protecting the pack from rogues and invaders.
“Well, thank you, Alpha. We could use a few more, but I understand that the warriors are busy,” the she-wolf states, before returning to her work. It is then that I realize I don’t even know her name and the guilt inside me grows. There is no point in learning the rest of my packmates’ names. I will be gone before Marilyn and I are forced to be married.
Padding towards the front foyer, I climb the steps towards my room to find Kurt waiting for me outside. He silently opens the door and tells me that he will look for my father while I shower. Shifting back to my human form, I take a deep breath and scent the air. I knew I smelled honey the moment I entered my room, and sure enough, Marilyn’s scent lingers. It is only her scent thankfully, and with a bit of investigation, I find a few hidden cameras with voice recording features.
Chuckling to myself, I link Kurt and Simon the news, both men furious on my behalf. After reassuring them that I will deal with the cameras later, I shut the link down and head for a shower.Something inside me is screaming that tonight will be a long one, and I need to mentally prepare myself before I face Marilyn and my father.

[We still can’t find your father or Marilyn,] Simon links me as I finish dressing. I groan, wondering what the fuck my father is doing. He is the one always spouting off about making Marilyn happy. That I shouldn’t be late for a function when it involves her. Yet here he is, missing in action, and no one knows where he went. Some alphaheis.
[I will check his office,] I state, exiting my room and making my way down to the second floor. I turn in the direction of my father’s office when someone steps in front of me. I growl, ready for a fight, when I notice it is Kurt. His eyes look everywhere but at me as he blocks my path, and the unease I felt moments earlier grows.
“Kurt, I am looking for my father. Move,” I state, trying to get past my father’s beta.
“I already searched down here, Lucas. Let’s just head to the party.” He finally looks into my eye, but just for a brief moment before he looks away. I see panic within them, and something inside me urges me to continue towards my father’s office.
“Kurt,” I warn sternly with a growl.
“I do not want to order you to move, but I will if I have to,” I continue. I see a moment of relief flash, and I know instantly that Kurt was ordered to keep me away from the office. He would have linked me if something was amiss in the pack house.
[Blink once if my father gave you a command,] I link the man before me. He strains for a moment, his face contorted and looking like he is constipated. After some straining, I am ready to tell him to stop, but Kurt is able to blink before his shoulders slump in relief. I hate using my alpha command on friends, but it seems like this will be the only way to help Kurt out of this situation.
“Kurt,” I begin, taking a deep breath and allowing the power of my blood to roar as I ready my command.
“I command you to let me pass.” A second passes before Kurt moves to the side, and I step forward. Just as I pass Kurt, he slumps to the floor and gasps for breath. It seems that I have grown stronger, my command breaking my father’s.
“Are you okay?” I ask, bending down to check on my friend.
[Don’t say anything but do you have your phone on you?] Kurt asks, and I nod.
“I am fine, Alpha Lucas. Just feeling dizzy,” he says out loud, and I know that my father must have cameras around.
[Good. Start recording now, and keep it facing towards your father’s office. Trust me, you will want this evidence, and to email Nathaniel as soon as you can.] Shocked by this, I take my phone out and hold a finger to my lips to remind Kurt to stay silent. With my phone recording the hall ahead, I slowly pad down the hallway and make it to the door of the office. I can hear moaning coming from within, as two wolves are in the middle of making love. A voice calls out my father’s name, and I freeze. That voice belongs to Marilyn.
“That’s right, Mari. Take my cock like the good girl you are!” my father growls possessively.
“Yes, Alpha!” she moans in response. I slowly push the door open, and hold my phone to the little space I have, capturing my father thrusting in and out of Marilyn, the whore begging him to fill her with his cum so she can have his pup. My father kisses her to muffle her cries of pleasure, his one hand gripping the back of her neck as he thrusts harder into her.
Shocked, I stay silent until the two are on the verge of finishing before I put my phone away and stand straight. Rage fills me as I realize that the woman I am being forced to marry, the reason I was forced to reject my Kaylee, is having an affair behind my back with my own father.
[Simon, Kurt,] I link the two men while taking a few deep breaths.
[There is a wallet in the safe in my office. The bank PIN to my card is 4045. Get those who wish to leave this pack together, andget out of Oak Furnow,] I continue, imbuing my words with an alpha command. What I am about to do is going to cause a lot of chaos in Oak Fur, and I need to know that the innocent wolves will be away from here before then.
“I will make sure you are filled with my pup, Mari, before you marry my son.” Slamming the door open, I walk into my father’s office and watch as the two naked wolves jump apart.
“Lu-Lucas!” Marilyn exclaims, her eyes widening as she stares at me.
“Save it, whore,” I growl, watching her flinch. My father growls back, not happy that someone dares growl at the woman he just made love to.
“Lucas, you know better than to disrespect your future wife,” he warns lowly, and I scoff.
“You mean the whore you were just fucking. Yeah, I am not taking my father’s sloppy seconds.” I lean against the door frame and watch as Marilyn’s face pales. She knows that I will not marry her, now that she has been tainted. I never touched her before, wanting to wait for our wedding day, thinking I would never meet my mate. Then Kaylee happened.
