"Nothing wouldher words

Fane and Lilly stepped out of the room when transport arrived to move Jacque to the rooave Fane a quick wink and challenged, "Race you to the rooan in his office to go over the weekly update on how Jacque was healing It had been four weeks since the accident and finally Logan had soood news to pass on

"Jacque has awoken fro else about her well-being or just that she is awake?" Dillon’s voice was gruff with eo

"Fro rapidly, nearly as well as a full blooded wolf"

Dillon couldn’t help thinking for the thousandth time how Fane could have left her, or any of them for that e he had taken part in Then a thought that he kept co at Logan "You were there, why didn’t you help her?"

"I was going to, Alpha, but Fane got there so quickly and he would have knohat I was had I revealed myself I realize now Jacque’s safety should have been an told him, eyes down, neck exposed in sub on to his wolf by a thread and any defiance on Logan’s part would surely forfeit his life

"I was going to stay out of this I was going to trust Lilly to knoas best for our daughter, but these past weeks the o over it in my head, I just can’t, not now Jacque could have been killed and all because her supposed mate, who is little more than a kid, didn’t protect her as is his responsibility" Dillon knew in the rational part of his brain thattoo hard on Fane, but he couldn’t help it, that was his daughter, and had she died he would never have had the opportunity to know her That was unacceptable in his book Jacque was still a hts as her Alpha, that he take her under his care until she was an adult Lilly would probably hate him for it but she would eventually see that it was better for Jacque this way She was too young toto be her mate He didn’t understand what it meant to be a mate, the responsibility that caan "You said there were four wolves besides Vasile and his son?"

"Get the pack’s first four, with you andin with an even nu Vasile, but enough to show that I have support Also have Colin charter a private plane, I want to get there as soon as possible"

Colin was Dillon’s assistant, for lack of a better word, and took care of any pack business and acted as a liaison to other packs Because of his Oe to other packs, nor was he a suban nodded at his Alpha’s request and turned to go

"We leave in an hour," Dillon told his retreating back

His plan could not be working out any better, Logan thought to hiet hurt, hoas he supposed to know that a simple blown tire would cause the car to roll, and then catch fire? Logan’s heart had been in his throat when he had watched Jacque’s still for SUV He had nearly rushed forward to help but he had picked up the sound of the other wolves’ vehicles and had gotten in his car and driven across thethe opposite direction as Fane and his family They’d never even looked his direction, their eyes only on the wreckage Logan had thought that over the past feeeks Dillon’s anger would abate, but much to his dislike it had only increased

Dillon walked into the pack defense room where he knew the 4 top members of the pack would be this tined weapons andthe parameter of the mansion on the various TV screens that ired to the ca to do as they had not had another pack attee them on their territory in over a century Old habits die hard, and as Dillon told them you can never be too prepared
