“Will do.” More people were starting to show up and it will be quicker if we do it a little at a time and not wait until everyone is here to start.

“Tell me everything is going to go as planned.” I whispered to Alec. He let go of my hand and put his arm around me.

“Better than planned.”

“Alec.” Alpha Marc said with a very authoritive voice. Both Alec and I stiffened.

“What?” Alec asked looking around. His dad was standing in the door frame.

“We need you inside.” Alpha Marc didn’t wait and answer before he walked back in.

“We need to figure it out before anyone dies.” I said in the mind-link.

“Agreed.” Alec replied as he walked inside.

Turning back around, I watched as Emmy and Luna Erin sort everyone. Some where confused and others looked rather scared. Little kids were getting scolded for not staying in one place. Men kept coming in and out of the packhouse. I’m not sure what they know or what Alec or Alpha Marc told them but all of

them made sure to keep a distance from me. I, both, appreciated and was annoyed over this. Maybe if I was treated normally I would get over it quicker? Although, it could make my recovery longer.

Holding my arms in the other, it put some pressure off my shoulders. Still, they were feeling better than

they did this morning. However, if I wanted to be treated normally, I should probably start acting like it.

That meant allowing Alec to do what he needed to do to keep the pack safe.

Walking back inside the packhouse, it was an organized chaos. Men were adjusting their gear, saying

goodbye to their crying mates or having some internal pep talk. I saw Alec in the far corner talking to

some men. His back was to me but the men he was talking to glanced over and saw me. He got Alec’s

attention and motioned towards me. Confused, Alec glanced over and did a double take before telling

them he would be right back.

“Kristen?” He walked over and pulled me to the side. “What’s wrong?”

“Everyone is avoiding me. No one will talk to me or keeping a healthy distance.”

Alec looked even more confused. “I know. I thought that would be best so make it more comfortable for

you, Kristen, I am really busy right now.”

“I know, please listen.” I reached out and firmly grabbed his arm. It was quicker than I meant to do and it

finding it really off putting. I realized if I want to move on, I need everyone to treat me like they would have before the incident.” I was aware that there was more than one pair of ears listening in. “I need to feel normal in my own house. Normal means not being attached to you. Alec, I can’t hold you back from going. If you need to be with our men as they go into battle, go. I will be okay. I’m a survivor and this will not break me either. If you need to go… go!” I looked deep into his eyes to make sure he understood and I really meant it.

“I love you for this and I am happy to hear you are ready to accept going back to normal but someone has to stay here and make sure things are okay.”

“We both know someone else who would benefit from having their mate stay.” I was talking about Jasper. Emmy was pregnant and as much as she was keeping it together, Jasper would be a wreck not knowing what is going on back home. He trusted Alec to keep Emmy safe but it isn’t the same if it wasn’t him.

“Are you sure?”
