Ternen looked at me. "I don't know what happens..."
| sighed. "The wolves are sent to stronger packs, beefing the numbers of the
alphas trying to take over. Swith their
resources.

"Wait." Alannah shook her head. "How does that happen? Doesn't the king have to make that decision?"
Rick's knife dropped when the realization hit him. "No."
I turned to him with a nod. "Yes."
"What is it?" Ternen looked at Rick.
"The king usually makes the decision. Or he used to. But since the old king died, the council took over allocating
resources." Rick
turned towith dawning horror. "The council?"
"Yeah." | lifted my shoulder. "Or we think the council."
"We?" Rick forgot about his food. He was invested.
"My father,and Rowan...the king." | took a long sip of my soda.

"Wait a damn minute." Rick slammed his hand on the table. "You said your father was dead."
"And to Vince and Brandon, that's exactly how he has to stay. Dead." | put down my cup. "Vince and whoever
else he is working with sent attack after attack to take down my father. He sent a she-wolf witch to use magic to
get him to betray his mate's bond. To betray me. They infiltrated and turned his gamma, for fuck sakes. My
father needed to move in the shadows, and a way to keep
our pack safe."
Rick looked away. "I didn't mean it like that. But he is my friend."
"I know. Which is why | asked about bringing you into the loop. But | needed permission. | can't jeopardize
everything we are working towards just because | like you guys"
Rick turned back and nodded. "Why are you bringing us in?"
"Because | think you need my help. And I think | might need yours as well"
Something entered Rick's eyes. "What do you mean?"
I smiled. "I'll get to it. But | want to start with Ternen. You wanted to seetoday. Why?"
Termen turned pale. "1, 1, 1." He looked at Alannah.
"Hey." | reached across. "What tever you want to ask me, just ask."
He took a breath. "I was talking to Rick. He toldhe was able to
his life together because of your dad and the help he gave
him."

Rick nodded. "That's true."
Ternen looked at Rick, who gave an encouraging nod. "I hoped that maybe..." He looked back atand then
shut his eyes tight. "Would you be willing to lendthe money | need to go to school for computer science?”
His eyes snapped open, and he rushed to continue. "I swear I'll pay it back.
Yes."
"And I'll pay you back with interest." He continued as if | didn't already agree.
"Ternen." | reached across and grabbed his hand. "I already said yes. And you don't have to payback"
"I swear |
I'l m make
payment
schedule. "
“Temen!” | snapped him out of his monologue. “I already said yes. And you won't have to payback." He
looked at me, slowly blinking as if he was short circuiting.
"What?"
"Yes, | will pay for you to go to school." | smiled. “When did you want to start?" "Um...1 still have to ask Alpha
Vince if | can go. | mean, even
if I got
got fired, I still have to ask."
I couldn't have known."
Rick and | froze. "What do you mean you go fired, boy?" Rick's words were angry.
Alannah looked down at her hands and then up at me. "Amy, please don't feel bad. You o
"What?" | looked between the two. "What exactly happened?" A pit had opened in my stomach.
"Brandon ctoafter you
you all had left for the day. He said you talked to him about moving me."
“I did. | heard from Alannah you guys were about to lose your apartment, so |
figured if you moved to a higher paying position, you guys would be okay. | didn't think Alannah would take
money from me." | looked between the two.
"That son of a bitch." Rick slammed his hand against the wood, and that made everything click for me.
"The bruises....they were f
from Brandon?" | looked at Ternen. He nodded.
"He said that | should keep my mouth shut when I'm around you. That if | wanted a new position, | could go find
one. And since he is the next alpha, no one would hire me." He looked down at his hands. "He said the only
reason Alannah is safe is because of me, and once I'm gone, he will 'take her for a spin'."
Rick growled and went to stand, but I pulled back down. "If anyone gets to kill Brandon, it's me."
"Why? You're dating the prick." Rick growled at me. "Why would you kill him?" | felt myself sink into my dark
space. “Because he killed our pup.
