Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future

Chapter 37

Once Kas calms down a little, Tyree gets me a towel to clean myself up, then moves to the corner of the room to keep an eye on things between Kas and I.

I explain more about my conversation with Randall and what I need Kas to take care of at Silver Moon.

“Kas, Randall will meet you there,. You won't be there by yourself,” I promise her. “You are going to be their Luna. When Randall announces it. they will show you respect. The pack members that don't want to accept that can leave. It's their option. And honestly, good because I don't really want any of them here, but the Council is forcing my hand. I've already made it clear to Randall that there are no second chances once they're here.”

Kas has a permanent little frown through the entire conversation. I know she isn't happy about the idea, but she hasn't made any comments or asked any questions either. She's just intently listening.

“How long do I need to be there?” she finally asks.

“You will need to leave tomorrow and be there for a full week. There is going to be a ton of meetings. paperwork, and you will need to do tours of their various buildings and the grounds to make assessments. If there is anything valuable, we can sell it. Use the liquid capital to fund building and fixing up houses for the additional pack members here,” I explain while she nods slowly at me.

“Will Randall be there all week?" I still can’t read her expression and there is no tone to her voice to guide me.

“Yes, the entire time.”

“I'm not staying in the Alpha’s apartment.”

“Okay. I will send orders for a Suite to be prepped for you.”
