Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future by Neener Beener chapter 31

After making amends with Lenora by promising her two new pairs of shoes, we focus on work. In the last week, Lenora had brought in four large international contracts she had been working on for months. We need to get set up and staffed in the various countries and work with the local governments to ensure we have the correct permits to conduct our work. I know my team can do it without me, but I welcome the distraction.

In my free time, I’m in my library drowning in research. The more I research, the more I feel like a speciesist a*shole. For

years, I let myself believe in preconceived notions about other paranormal species that simply weren’t true. I never questioned what I had been told by the people around me. It’s eye opening and humbling to learn the facts. It makes me realize I need to change my ways and I need to do a better job at educating my pack.

In addition, Milo and Reggie are calling Alphas and drafting a charter I could present to Lady Camille. On Thursday, they present the final draft to me. I make edits to it based on the research I have done. Once we are all in agreement with the updated details, I send it to Carly to have it printed on our pack letterhead.

By the end of the week, I’m exhausted. I take the weekend to be lazy and recharge. I watch Kas’s favorite cooking show and record a couple new ones for her that I think she’11 enjoy.

Thankfully, I have meetings at three different packs the next week to keep my mind occupied.

Thank the Goddess, the week flies by in a heartbeat. I finish the last of the pack meetings and get back to Blood River on Thursday late in the evening. I brief Milo on things that may come up while I’m gone and head out to the airport for a redeye flight to France. Henri, once again, has left me a car so I can drive myself directly. When I get to the gate of the coven’s land, I find Lady Camille is waiting for me.

“Lady Camille, thank you again for having me as a guest,” I bow slightly, something I read that witches see as a sign of respect, “Can we go to your office first? I have some papers to review with you, regarding James and Delilah.“

“Of course, Alpha Bronx. Would you like for them to join us?” she asks. Her tone seems more relaxed than it has in our past interactions. Amazing what a simple non-verbal gesture can do.

“Not yet, if that’s alright with you. I want to make sure we are in agreement and if possible, I would like lokaste to be there. She is my Luna and she deserves to have input in these types of

matters.“

“Very well,” she smiles and holds out her hand, “I will send for her.“

I take her hand and we’re instantly in her office. She presses a button on her desk.
