Makay’s p.o.v. I don’t know who the male is, but he calms Meadow down pretty quickly and I can feel the presence of her Lycan subside. “Elder Morton, you have been an Elder for long enough to know that you do not discuss another’s personal matters with Squad members. You can discuss them with other Elders in the privacy of a soundproof office or room, but never with anyone else. I was informed of your behavior towards Meadow concerning her lack of trust in males and you received a written warning to stay out of Meadow’s business. I see no other solution but to force you into retirement, effective immediately.” The King says. A burst of murmurs is heard through the King’s office, but I am more focused on Meadow and her interaction with my Father and Alpha Lincoln.I still can’t believe that she found her fated Mate, she isn’t even seventeen yet. She shouldn’t be able to find her fated Mate for another year at least, she should have been oblivious to what Rufus did to her. His ass is mine when I get back home, Blade also wants a piece of him and our Brother will be right behind me when I tell him this. “Oh, Fuck. She is the Pack-member that Myka mentioned, she left the Pack before we arrived.” I say to Blade as we both stare at Meadow. “Could it be that the reason Elder Morton looked at Rhys is because she is Rhys’ Daughter?” Now my mind gets flooded with questions and I guess there is only one person that can answer them, Meadow. “Elder Major, what a pleasant surprise to see you here. Does this mean that you are ready to get back to work?” The King asks while he walks towards Meadow and Elder Major. “Your Majesty, if you don’t mind I would like to spend some time with my Niece, before returning to duty. I also believe it will take a while to find a Pack that needs an Elder in their territory.” Elder Major responds. “There is a Pack that needs an Elder, they have been without an Elder for a very long time.” The King responds and I see a determined look on Alpha Lincoln’s face. “Your Majesty, I am the new Alpha of Gold Moon Pack. I am also aware of a few things that might complicate Elder Major’s post at Gold Moon Pack, but I could talk to Elder Carmen to see if she is willing to switch Packs.” Alpha Lincoln states. The King is nodding his head while he is thinking about Alpha Lincoln’s offer, but it is Elder Major who responds. “Thank you, Alpha Lincoln. I appreciate the offer, I will discuss this matter with Meadow and get back to you.” Elder Major says with Meadow still wrapped in his arms. It takes another hour before Meadow and I walk back into our building and head up to our rooms. “Meadow, if you don’t want to answer me then just tell me to bugger off. Is former Beta Rhys your Father?” I ask, no longer able to control my curiosity. “Well, his name is on my birth certificate but I wouldn’t go as far as calling him my Father.” She answers. I follow her into her room and sit down in one of the armchairs, hoping that she will tell me a little bit more about her childhood and for the next half hour I am listening to a story I wouldn’t wish on my enemies. “My Mate was the only reason I stayed in the territory, but you already know how that turned out. I still have trouble with Rufus turning his back on his fated Mate, not because I want him but for the sake of the Pack. His choice will weaken the Pack and Stella will be a horrible Gamma female.” Meadow says. Meadow tells me about her training with some of the Elite Warriors and I recognize all the names I hear, they had been her family when her own had turned their backs on her.“Do you want me to talk some sense into River?” I ask her, but she shakes her head. “Not necessary, Alpha Lincoln had a talk with him.” She says before she tells me about the conversation Alpha Lincoln had with River and now Blade wants a piece of former Beta Rhys. “I am not sure what to do with this information, but I am going to share it with Uncle Major and hear what his thoughts are on the matter. At the moment I don’t want either one of them to know where I am or for my Father to know that River and I know the truth.” She says as she gets comfortable on the couch. “Why do you trust me enough to tell me this?” I ask her and I hear her giggle. “I doubt Myka would keep it from you or anyone else who knows the truth, they are probably hoping that they get to rub your nose in it. After all, you will have missed out on a few things by the time you get back.” She states.“How many siblings do you have, besides your twin Brother?” Meadow asks with her eyes closed and her head resting on the armrest. “I have an older Brother, his name is Misha. Then there is me and Myka as you know and then we have Makayla, our baby Sister.” I answer her and again she is giggling. “What about the rest of the leadership?” She asks and I realize that she is staying on a safe topic. “Alpha Lincoln and Luna Leona have three children. Madden, who is two months older than Misha. Then we have Magnus, followed by Mylah.” I hear her giggling getting worse as I speak. “Gamma Layton and his Mate Laney have four children, just like my parents.” I stare at Meadow for a moment before I decide to continue, after all she did ask me a question. “Matheus is the future Gamma of Black Valley Pack and then there are the twins Malek and Mauro, their baby Sister is Marisol.” I say and Meadow looks at me while she is shaking her head. “Who… came up… with the names?” She manages to ask. “And what’s… with all… the M’s?” I let her words sink in and I chuckle when I realize another similarity, but then with our current leadership. “My Mother’s name is Lilith.” I say and she rolls her eyes at me. “Is your Pack’s leadership the alphabet?” She asks and I am stunned as I remember Grandpa’s name, Keegan.
