Chapter Sixty-Five

This is turning into a nightmare. Pinching my nose with my forefinger and thumb, I try to decide on the following action. It is nice to have people backing me, well, ones that aren't from afar. Listening to Caspian and Joe, they discuss some battle plan that isn't necessary. Heading to the door, I open it before Samuel can step close to it. Looking defeated, he holds the battered backup phone to me.

"Thank you, Sammy. Everything is going to be okay." I tell him feeling his unease.

"Will we ever be left in peace?" he mutters.

"Yes. I will make sure of it."

"No, we will. You're family now." Joe says, placing his hand on my shoulder and squeezing it. "Is this the evidence you were on about? Does it show Danny's injuries?"

"It has everyone's apart from Sis's." Sammy smiles proudly. "Hers our on the main device."

"Main device," Cayden growls storming forward. "What do you mean?" Sammy takes a cautious step back but still stays firm.

"It doesn't matter. Now this has what we need to ensure that no pups have to return to the Red Moon Pack."

"Why did you not show this to us before?" Joe asks me kindly.

"I didn't want to use it unless necessary." Looking anywhere apart from them. "Anyway..."

"Councilman Daryll where are you going?" Alpha Rick roars as he heads towards the entrance.

"Let this go, Rick. It is not worth it."

"What are you talking about?"

"She has evidence…"

"She has nothing. She is some pathetic pup."

"MY SISTER IS NOT…" shit the aurora coming off my brother is increasing, fur starts sprouting and I have to grab hold of him.

"You need to calm down." I calmly tell him stroking his arms.

"He always insults you." Sammy snarls.

"He is not worth it. Now go outside and calm down." I order him to send my aurora through the link to try and not be detected by all the others around.

"I am fed up…" shit grabbing hold of his arm I drag him towards the entrance and away from prying eyes as I feel him shifting, however, that doesn't stop them stammering after us.

"What is going on?"

"Nothing we will be back shortly," I call over my shoulder.

"No, you aren't going anywhere, we need to resolve this." Alpha Rick demands. Ignoring him I continue to push Sammy out the door.

"Get into the woods now." But it's too late as a pure black wolf shakes his fur out in front of me.

"He's an alpha." Various gasps sound out around me. Great how the hell can I blag this one? The growl that comes out of Murdoch is full of authority and is on par with Alpha Rick as he turns to face the two he sees as the enemy, and in a way they are. Launching towards them I step in the way, if he attacks them, it could cause a problem.
