I look around at them. Some are interested, others excited, but there’s hesitation too, as if it all is just too good to be true. I smile softly, hoping they can see the understanding in my eyes.

“I was hurt, along with my mother and sister, when we lived in this pack. When my mother managed to escape to protect us, it was the Blood Moon Pack who took us in, despite knowing the risks it could bring to them. They are a pack that is half the size of this one, but they have a huge heart. And despite the size, we are strong,” I explain, now looking across the groups.

“If you want to come, or want to know more, please ask. If anyone has any questions or doubts or just wants to discuss it further, come to me or Alpha Elijah, or even the Blood Moon warriors who helped defeat the tyranny of Zidane Malone! Let’s take back our lives and grow,” I finish, glancing at Elijah who looks… proud as he gazes down at me, his eyes simmering with approval. I blush lightly as he gives me the thumbs up.

The crowd buzzes as they talk and I wait patiently, letting them discuss their options freely. When a few faces begin to turn towards me, I know they have questions.

“Well, while you guys think about it, I’ll tell you a little about our pack. Aaron, the projector,” Elijah says, seeing no one speak up.

I look behind me, surprised to see Aaron has a setup ready to be wheeled out, and I’m shocked. But I am glad he thought of this idea, watching as he begins telling the group about how the pack is run, training, and how even omegas can learn too if they want. He explains how omegas are paid for their work and are treated with respect.

That part shocks so many, and all the omegas who hover in the back look shocked.

He continues, telling them how the pack is diverse, andeveryone is respected for who they are. The slideshow shows the packhouse, the rest of the land, the mansion, the playing area, the small shops and the small restaurant that is on pack grounds.

I can see the change in many faces, the excitement that is now building within them as they think of a world where they are free.

Smart idea. I didn’t know you had that planned. Did you know what I’d choose?

He smirks, although he doesn’t turn to me.No, but I’m a fast thinker and I thought it might help when you began your speech.He winks at me, making me smile.

Thanks.

And I mean it. I admire Elijah, he is a natural at this, and he will make an impressive Alpha.

He goes on to explain about schooling and how all the kids attend regardless of rank, the rules we expect to be followed and how everyone works and lives independent lives to an extent. Not being bound to completely live under the rules and at the beck and call of the Alpha. Once he is done, he looks at me as I watch him with a small smile on my face, feeling proud of the man he has become.

I’m truly impressed, Alpha Westwood,I praise through the mind-link.

After everything I’ve shown you I’m capable of, you’re impressed by this? Surely there must be something else that impresses you more? Like my dick maybe?he replies, smirking cockily. I roll my eyes.

You will always be a cocky jerk,I reply back through the mind-link, trying not to melt under that sexy gaze as he licks hislips. His piercing glints when it catches the light, sending a jolt of pleasure to my core.

A cocky jerk you want to fuck right now.

Arrogance is in your blood it seems.

Is it arrogance when I know I’m this impressive?

I roll my eyes, hiding my amusement before turning to the people.

“Does anyone have any questions?”

“The Alpha explained it well, but I do have one.” I nod and they continue timidly. “Why are you being so good to us, Alpha Scarlett?”

I frown sadly, wondering if anyone in this pack has been free from abuse.

“Because you are part of my pack, my family and I care for you all. From this day on, no one I care about suffers,” I say firmly, my eyes locking with the man, my Alpha aura surrounding me. I mean it from the bottom of my heart. “You are my responsibility and I will always be there for you.”

Applause breaks out and a murmur of whispers crosses the crowd. I can hear a few through the link telling me they want to join and will follow all the rules. It seems we are going to be dealing with a lot of fearful wolves for a while, but I know the Blood Moon Pack and Elijah will be there every step of the way to help and guide them.

A Request

Elijah

Iwatch proudly as she interacts with her people, more of them stepping forward to ask questions about our pack. Fuck, I love her, and it’s not only because she’s hot as hell but because she is strong, selfless, brave and fucking incredible.

My fiery kitten.
