CHAPTER 71

We had to get up immediately and we headed straight down to the conference room in the packhouse and Jackson pulled out a map and laid it out on the table.

Ethan and Wyatt were there and Jackson started pointing out all of the known rogue camps in the area.We needed to start hitting those places first.

There's a chance that he will be there.

And if that's where he wanted to stay then that was fine.

We weren't going to force him back here, if he wanted to stay there with his mate then we weren't going to stop him.

But he's too far away for Jackson to mind link him and that's what was the most frustrating.

Just not knowing where he is.

The least he could do is call and let people know that he's not dead.

Unless he was still looking for his mate, but the same rules apply.He could at least let his mother know where he is.

She's worried sick about him right now.We know that he's not dead, because we would be able to feel that.

But we don't know if he's in trouble or not.

And that's what was really getting to his family.

"How big are these Rogue camps?" I asked, looking at the map.

"Some of them are pretty big.We're going to have to go in there with a strategy." Jackson says.

"Amnesty.We won't hurt them if they agree to talk to us." I say.

"We can't trust Rogues.They always lie." Gladys says.

"Well, if they have any brains at all then they will know that we're not there alone.We will have people in the woods.So if they don't agree to those terms then we'll threaten to wipe out the whole camp." I suggest.

And I saw Gladys eyeing me up and down.

"Alright.Now I get why you two are mates." She says.

"Have you told anyone about Joseph being gone?" Jackson asked.

"I had to let your father know." Gladys says.

And I looked straight at Jackson, knowing that they didn't have a really good relationship because his father tried to take the Alpha title away from Jackson and give it to one of his brothers.I was a little afraid of what was going to happen if his father showed up here.I didn't want there to be a civil war while we were probably going to be getting into a war with the rogues.

"Alright.So, we hit the closest camps first and work our way out.How's that?" I asked, looking back at the map, and trying to change the subject.

"Yeah.Sounds like a good idea to me." Jackson says.
