Chapter 222
Yorick
After meeting with Tracker, Cyra and | return to her room. | was hoping for information, but we're still in a waiting
game, this twaiting for Hacker
"Maybe Zach is on to something with these nicknames," | say, grabbing my computer.
"They do seem to like them around here,” Cyra says.
| pull up my email and see a message from Wendy.
'Yorrie,
Here's what | have so far. I'm having difficulty getting into Alpha Arden's information, but from what I've found,
there's nothing about a son taking over the pack. Is Cyra's brother younger than she is? I'm guessing so, since
Arden is still Alpha.
Second, the only Stellan I've found near the Teymoori pack is a second son. Do you know his last name? It would
helpto pinpoint his pack, unless you think that she's in this type of bond with a second son."
That wouldn't make any sense. Second sons, like me, have to make our way in the world, unless there is a
ranked position open in the pack or your brother boots the Beta or Gamma heir to give his brother the title. Or,
like Connor, they offer you to work for them. But none of those reasons would warrant an alliance bond.
| go back to the email.
‘Finally, I'm going to start digging on Jory. You said he was a warrior, but do you know which pack he was from?
And do you have a last name?
| hope you and my future sister-in-law are doing well.
Love you, bro,
The best sister ever.
| snort reading how she signed off.
"What?" Cyra asks, looking up from her computer.
"My sister emailedand signed off 'The best sister ever""
"Is she?" Cyra asks, smiling.
| shrug. “She's my favorite sister, the one I'm closest to. So, yeah, she probably is."
Smiling, | hit reply.
"To The Best Sister Ever,
We have someone here working to try and get info on Cyra's alliance bond. They are also struggling to get into
his pack information. Although, | need to call Connor and tell him to tighten our pack's security. Apparently, it's
extremely easy to get the information. | found out Connor and
a boy. That's how easy it was for them to get into our pack's information.
n are having
As far as Cyra's brother goes, she must be the oldest. That's the only thing that makes sense. And you must
have the wrong Stellan. There would be no reason for Alpha Arden to create an alliance bond with a second son.
Maybe expand the search?
And I'll see if I can find out any more about Jory.
If I haven't said it, thanks for this. You really are the best!

Love and hugs from your big bro,
Yorick'
By the weekend, we still haven't heard back from Tracker. | can't be sure, but it doesn't seem like it's a good
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthing that it's taking this long for Hacker to get through the Teymoori fire walls. If he's good enough to be a third
year at the Academy, then it seems like Cyra's father has his pack's information locked down like Fort Knox.
"Hey Shakespeare. Hey Aphrodite. Nice of you to join us," Zach says as we get to the table in the dining hall.
| ignore him saying hello to the others while Cyra does the same, although she starts blushing.
"We're going to a club tonight. You two should come," Piper says.
"And she doesn't mean in the way you did just before you cto dinner," Zach says, grinning at me.
"Damn, Nickname. Why don't you call them out?" Landon says.
"I'm pretty sure he just did," Katelynn says.
"Dude, don't be a hater. | can't help it that | can't get enough of my girl," I say, pulling Cyra toand kissing the
side of her head.
"You know we have our first round of exams next week. | hope you've been spending twith your nose in
sbooks and not just in..."
"WHOA!" the whole table yells, throwing napkins at Zach while he grins like a fool.
"I'm just trying to be a good fried," he says.
"You're lucky | like you or I'd punch you in the face. Oh that's right, | did that yesterday," | smirk.
Zach and | had been paired again in sparring class. Neither of us pinned the other, but I left with a bruise on my
ribcage and he left with a bruise on his
shin.
"Yeah, that reminds me, | don't appreciate you messing up my pretty face," Zach
says and we banter back and forth throughout dinner.
"So, are you coming or not?" Piper asks as we begin cleaning up.
"Do you want to go?" | ask Cyra.
"Yeah, it'll fun. Is everyone going?” she asks, looking around.
"Hell yeah. | think we all need to blow off ssteam," Chase says.
"Hey Shakespeare," a man with thick, shoulder-length blond hair that I've never seen before calls out, walking
over. He walks with the casually confident arrogance of an Alpha, looking around the room as if surveying it for
threats.
He turns and looks at Zach. "The Wolf's Den is fun. You'll have a good time," he says, referencing the club we
were just talking about going to.
"Do | know you?" Zach and | ask at the time.
The man grins. It's a lopsided grin that | would bet/money makes women melt. | know my sisters would.
He turns that grin on Cyra and | growl, tugging her behind me.
"I was right, you must be Aphrodite. I'm Hacker. | wanted to let you know I'm still working on that... project
Tracker askedto help with. | have sother things, spaying things, that are taking priority, but | have
Sphinx helpingwhile | work on my other projects."
| look at Zach. "Sphinx?" | mouth. He shrugs.

"She's my... let's call her my protégé," he says. He grins again, like he's got a secret. Since he goes by Hacker,
I'm guessing he has a lot of them.
"How'd you know our nicknames?" | Piper
He looks over her dark red hair. "Ks him.
must be hellfire. And | never do work for someone unless | know who I'm working
for."
He points to our phones. "Nothin
is
private when you have an easy way to listen in."

He turns back to me. "We're getting your brother locked down. Truthfully, he should have talked to your brother
in-law. That guy knows how to protect himself and with good reason."
"I'm glad to know that you're on our side," | say. He's obviously referencing Quirin's massive wealth. My family's
pack is wealthy, but from what | understand,
it's nothing compared to Quirin's wealth.
"| use my powers for good. But then again, they screen us out for that too. Someone like the Menace over there
wouldn't be chosen for a job like mine. I'll be
in touch as soon as | have something for you," he says walking away. "Holy shit that guy is hot," Katelynn purrs.
He turns and winks at her over his
shoulder and I'm pretty sure she's about a moment away from swooning.
| look at Cyra who isn't looking at me, but she's fighting a smile.
"Not a word," | say.
"Personally, | prefer my men with dark hair," she says, grinning at me.
| pull her to my side. "Good answer."
"He's not at all what | would have expected," Piper says.
"What did you expect?" Landon asks.
"A nerd, | guess. Definitely not an Alpha and not one who is as ripped as he is,"
she says.
"We have to be well-rounded, right? He would need to be able to fight his way out
of a battle just like we would," Chase says.
"| guess that's true. It's just not what

Zach pulls Piper onto the dance floor and even though it's a fast song, the two of them begin slow dancing.
"Is it bad that | would rather have stayed hand danced and sweated with you
in bed?" | ask Cyra as | hand her a drink.
She laughs and throws back her drink.
"Cdance with me," she says, setting her drink down. | down my drink and she leadsonto the dance
floor.
She's wearing a form fitting dress that hits just above mid-thigh. Her high heels make her legs look even longer
than they are and when she turns to me, she's nearly my height.
She slides her arms around my neck and | wrap my arms around her waist, pulling her against me.
"Okay, maybe this isn't so bad," | say, leaning in to kiss her.

needs to use the bathroom.

| feel an arm slide around my waist and even without being able to smell her in this room full of sweaty shifters, |

| turn my head and see Megan smiling up at me. Where Cyra's dress was subtly
sexy, Megan's plunging neckline looks slutty.
"Hey handsome. Buya drink?" she purrs.
"No. And get your hand off me. Do you have a death wish?" | ask her, not even trying to sound civil.
"I don't see your girl around anywhere. | thought maybe you and her had a little argument."
"Nope. So go find someone else to bother."
She narrows her eyes atand opens her mouth to say something. "Oh," she says, stumbling into me.
Instinctively, | reach out to grab her. When | do, she shifts
her body, pressing herself against me, her mouth much to close to mine.
I'm just about to push her offwhen | hear my mate.
"Oh, for fuck's sake!"
My head whips around and | see fury in Cyra's eyes.
