“I’ll do anything within reason to make sure they live. I gave them a choice. Everyone,
including Kara agreed to it. I didn’t force them. They chose this in their own free will. I
won’t lie and say this didn’t work out in my favor but there isn’t much negative outcome
for me.”
“If Zac does, I die.” Cassie clarified.
“Zac isn’t in anymore danger than he was yesterday. I just allowed him to keep doing
things his way. Not that I agree with his way but regardless.”
“You can hate this but this is our reality. Our options weren’t great. You girls can keep
arguing but that isn’t going to change it. If you look at it objectively, this was the best
option.” Alec put his hands on the desk. He was done listening to the arguing.
“Since we were not part of the decision making, I believe I have every right to be included.
I am an Alpha after all.” Penny said.
“Then act like it.” Alec narrowed his eyes at Penny.
“Okay. I think it’s time for us to go.” Ice said and stepped between us. “Fighting each other
isn’t a good idea. Emotions are high and I think. we need to take a break.” Ice walked over

“Cassie, please give us some privacy.” I said and looked at her.
“Yes, Alpha.” She out her hand on Penny and walked out. Jacob closed the door behind
him.
“I should have been included. You had no right to decide that without
me.”
“You haven’t wanted to act like an Alpha! Did you not ask me to keep

and this wasn’t directly about you.”I could feel myself getting angry.
“I came back and said I wanted to know!” Penny put her hands on her
hips.
“You can’t do this. You either need to be fully involved or you need to trust that I can make
decisions that will benefit the pack. Just because you disagree with this decision doesn’t
mean you get to start questioning my ability to do this job.” My hands slammed on my
desk as I stood up.
“Okay…” Jacob stepped in. “Colt, let’s go for a walk.”
Jacob was right. We needed some space. Walking right past Penny, out the office door and
into the world around me.
“F uck!” I growled as my feet stomped down the steps of the porch.
“Over here.” Jacob pulled me to the gazebo in the middle of the garden.
“Why?”
“We need to talk.” Jacob said, firmly
“I don’t want to talk about Penny.” I said stubbornly as I watched
Jacob sit on the bench.
“I don’t either.” He shrugged and nodded towards the bench in fron

“Then what?” I asked but didn’t move to the bench.
“Sherry.”

draped over the back, waiting to hear his decision.

“Okay.” I said and shrugged. I knew he would, just a matter of time.
“Only because I don’t really have another option. I can’t believe she was
mates to him but I knew she had a past and it was hard. I really want to know what has
become to Tanya.”
“Nothing. She is still in the cells at Alec’s pack.”
“Sherry wants to confront her. The final straw to out the past behind her.” Jacob more told
than asked.
“You think that’s a good idea?”
“I don’t see how it could get worse. Nothing is good about this but. maybe it will allow
Sherry to heal. Seeing her really brought up negative emotions and she is back to not
wanting to be touched.”
“What are you wanting from me?” I asked, unsure of what he was really asking. “we both
know you didn’t need to ask this.”
“I… I don’t feel Sherry should be in position of power here.” Jacob jumped up and started
pacing. “There, I said it.” He tossed his arms up in frustration.
