The day and night that Katerina went into the territory, there were a line of Alphas just at the border of the territory listening for her. Their frustration was evident on their faces, that is until they smelled the smoke and realized she was in the cave for the night.

Title of the document

On the morning the first group of claimants entered the territory to hunt for Katerina, Dr. Braxton returned to the territory. This time, he asked to speak to all of us.

We gather in the dining room. Now that there are much fewer men here, it’s easy to find a quiet place to talk. We left the babies with Layan and Nina. Since my Beta isn’t here, I’m pretty he’s spending this time with Layan, especially since Alpha Davis is in the claiming territory hunting Katerina. Depending on how long each of the next two claims take, Elijah will have plenty of time to spend with Layan.

“I’ve asked to speak with all of you regarding the additional tests that I did on your children, as well as on Alpha Seth, Alpha Antonio, Alpha Mason and his pup Jaxon.” Dr. Braxton says, bringing my attention back to this meeting. The council is here as well, to hear the results of this most recent round of testing.

“As true Alphas, all of you had the potential to have dormant antibodies in your system. However, Alpha Antonio and specifically Alpha Mason had already started to feel the effects of the feral-fever virus impacting them.”

Antonio and I both nod. We’re older than Seth, so we would have been feeling it more strongly.

Dr. Braxton pushes his glasses up his nose, a move I’ve become accustomed to seeing him do. “My testing did not indicate that you had dormant antibodies in your system. At least not that we could tell. You are all mated and it’s possible that any dormant antibodies were activated. However, we saw no difference in the antibodies in your system than we did in your mates’ systems.” He looks up. “There are slight variations in the antibodies allowing us to track which pack they’ve come from.”

“What does that mean?” Antonio asks, interrupting him.

then around the table at all of us. “How to say this so it makes sense.” He looks thoughtful for a moment before continuing. “Let’s call them strains of the virus. For instance, the strain of virus that Alpha Zaire has is different than the strain of virus that Alpha Davis has. They come from different parts of the country, so that makes sense. The antibodies in your system, Councilwoman Gia, match your mate’s
