The Wolves Beneath the Sanctuary

Chapter 25 Picture

Lance "Thank you for asking me, and like the others, I would be honored to become your Delta. You mentioned a Head Warrior if our Pack keeps growing; I assume you already have someone in mind and would like to know who we think would be suited?" he asks, and again she nods her head. Lakota already told me who she would pick, and I have to agree with her; Colton will make a great Head Warrior as he was always one of the best Warriors Alpha Geofry had. Quinn is the first to answer her question, and she also suggests Colton for the position. "I think Quinn is correct; Colton would make a great Head Warrior as he knows how to lead the other Warriors. I am glad he made the decision to take his Mate and follow you and your Father; I think Sela would have had a horrible life without him," Darrius says."Okay, then that is taken care of as well. If our Pack keeps growing along the way or after we settle down, I will ask him to become our Head Warrior officially. Until that time, we will allow him to hold the position he currently has. I know Dad will be more at ease now that we will take over after we have settled down," Lakota says as she gets up. We follow her out of Alpha Chris' office, and I catch Lynn as she runs down the hall followed by Keir. "And what are the two of you doing?" I ask as I lift her over my head as she squeals. "Lynn says she is faster than I am," Keir says with a pout. With my other arm, I grab Keir off the floor as I tell them that it is not something to determine indoors. "You need to be outside with all the space you might need. Let's go in the backyard and see if Lynn is correct. Darrius, care to join us?" I ask as I walk past the living room. I place both pups next to Darrius and walk to the other side of the backyard before I turn around. I get down on one knee before I yell, "Go!" Both of them start running, and even though Keir is an Alpha male, Lynn beats him by a split second. "Wow, you are really fast," Keir shouts as he is lying on his back in the grass, and Lynn lies down next to him as both of them are catching their breaths. "Both of you were amazing. I assumed that Keir would win because he is an Alpha male, but you really surprised me, Lynn. I will never make that mistake again," I say as I sit down next to them. Lynn shivers as a breeze blows over them, and Keir pulls her into his arms, both of them still breathing a bit labored from their race. Darrius sits down next to me, and I tell him about Lynn's request to become a Warrior. "I don't think she will have much problems with becoming a Warrior," he replies. We talk about our new Pack as both Pups drift off to sleep, and I am glad I have my new phone as I make a few pictures of them sleeping in each other's arms. I send one picture to Lakota as I know she is still on the Alpha floor with Alpha Chris and Luna Lucy. Lakota I look at my phone after I received a message from Lance, and an ahh escapes me when I see the picture he sent me. I turn it towards Aunt Lucy so she can see. She reacts the same as I do, and both Uncle Chris and Uncle Marcos look over my shoulder at the picture. I already asked Lance what they did to be so exhausted, and I hear Uncle Chris chuckle at his reply. "Alice, do you think that a Pup that can outrun an Alpha Pup can become a Warrior?" I ask her, and she tells me that that Pup could even become a Higher rank than that. "Lynn just beat Keir by a split second in a race, and there were two witnesses," I say, and she asks if Keir didn't get mad at her. I turn my phone around as I ask her, "Does it look like he is upset with her for beating him?" She smiles at the picture and tells me that it doesn't look like he is upset with her. "Our Son knows that he is still young and that with a lot of training he will become faster and stronger. He also knows that he can't always win, even if he is an Alpha male," Uncle Chris says to no one in particular, and I am glad that Keir was raised to accept defeat no matter what. Josh walks into the room with a serious look on his face and stops right in front of Mylana. "I think Rory is hungry; he put my finger in his mouth and I could barely take it away," he says, and she ruffles his hair as she thanks him before she asks him if he would like to feed Rory. He nods his head, and she tells him to sit down in an armchair, while Aunt Lucy tells Mylana to get Rory, she walks to the kitchen to get his bottle. Josh sits down in the armchair next to Dad and patiently waits until Rory gets placed in his arms before he gets handed Rory's bottle. I snap a picture of Josh feeding Rory with my phone before I turn back to Quinn, who is still looking at the map. Marcos is right behind her pointing at a few places we could look for the hidden territory, but he quickly pulls the map away as the door slams open, and he drops it behind the couch we are sitting on. The same female from earlier walks in, but this time she isn't alone as a male follows her into the living room. From the resemblance, I would say he is either her Father or her Brother. "Alpha Chris, I do not appreciate it that my Daughter gets treated badly by visitors," he says as he steps next to her.
