The Wolves Beneath the Sanctuary

Chapter 476 No Vote

Theseus Slowly the Pack-members step aside and I stare at the board as I see one name written on it, but I have no idea who wrote it down. “Let’s call the Pack to the clearing, I want to know who did this and why.” Amarah says through our mind-link and we both link our members to come to the clearing. We stand on the front porch of the new Pack-house and we hear our Pack-members asking why they had to come here, no one seems to understand it. Amarah lifts her hands and as always the crowd goes silent, it still amazes me that she has this much control over them. “Some of you have already seen that there is only one name written on the board for our new Pack name, but it wasn’t there this morning and if I remember correctly this name has never been on the board. I would like to know who wrote it down and why?” Amarah says.“I did, Alpha Amarah.” I hear from our right and Umayza steps forward. Our Pack-members know about her gift and they have been ordered to never speak about it with non-Pack-members. Her Mates are holding her close and I can see a worried look on their faces. Umayza tells us she had been in the cluster where Asteria and Inti stayed for five years, she wanted to see how they had lived there and that is when she was hit with a memory. “I always thought that my gift was stretched to the limit, but I had been mistaken and this memory left me unconscious for over twenty four hours. It wasn’t a long memory, but it was from a long time ago and the Council had to dig deep into their Archives to confirm my memory. This territory, as it is today, got spilt into two Packs over two hundred years ago and this clearing was sold to the Council to keep a natural border between both Packs. Back then it was known as White Mountain Pack and was run by Alpha Grant, he never found his fated Mate. He did have two chosen Mates and with each of them he had a Son, they are the ones that split the Pack into two after their Father suddenly died.” She says and Amarah and I stare at one another. “Don’t worry, you are not related at all. Alpha Amarah is a descendent from Alpha Grant, but your ancestors took over Dark Mountain Pack at request of the Council. Alpha Grant’s second Son was killed after he tried to force himself on an Alpha’s Daughter and his Beta took over as Alpha.” She says as if we asked the question out loud. We ask our Pack-members to think about Umayza’s story and taking an old name back for our combined Pack. They get time to think about it and will let us know by voting Yes or No on the board. We hope this will make it easier to finally combine our Packs to one and link our Pack-members to one another. Umayza and her Mates are waiting as our Pack-members walk away from us and I ask her if she is going to be okay, “Yes, Alpha Theseus. I am fine, just a bit tired. It probably took longer because I am pregnant and that the memory was over two hundred years old. In your old office are two boxes with all the journals and family files from the Alpha, Beta and Gamma. I hope the two of you will be able to continue were those journals and files ended, I believe it was meant to turn out this way and I know that this Pack will benefit with two Alphas like the two of you.” She says. Evander picks her up bridal-style and tells her it is time for a nap, but she just shakes her head. “I don’t want to go to sleep, I have been awake for less than two hours and I would like to see how the voting goes.” She says as she looks at Conri and I think he is the one that gives into her faster. “Little One, let’s make a compromise. You can go to the living room, but you stay seated until we go home.” Conri says and she pouts a little before she finally agrees with him, but I think that was just an act. After all she gets what she wants, even if everyone can see that she is exhausted.After we got back to the Pack-house we avoided the living room, because we want to give everyone a chance to vote without thinking we are trying to influence them. Amarah and I think it would be a great idea to rename our Pack with it’s old name and I am curious about this Pack’s history. We left the door to the office open, something I never did but Amarah explained that an open door invites Pack-members to come to us with their problems and I wonder if that is why none of the Omegas ever came with their complaints about my Father. I hear Joseph and Inti talking about the name on the board and both of them seem very excited about it, but it doesn’t take long before I hear Griffin roar. Amarah is out the door before I can blink my eyes and I run after her to find out why our Son is upset. Amarah is cupping his face with her hands as she looks into his eyes, she learned quickly it was best not to say anything and to allow Griffin the time to calm down. I kneel down next to them and rub his back up and down with my hand, helping Griffin to calm down faster. I look around the room to see a very pissed off Umayza staring daggers at one of the older Pack-members and I know that I have found the source of Griffin’s anger, but I don’t ask anything. “Mom, he says Inti and I can’t vote for our Pack name.” Griffin says as he points towards the male near the board.
