Triplet Alphas Gifted Luna

Chapter 55 Planning

When they arrived home, Thea told the warriors working the gates to watch out for any wolves looking for asylum. Even ones that looked like rogues.

“There have been she-wolves leaving their packs because of abuse. They wouldn’t have gone rogue otherwise. If anyone says ‘let’s go to the bar,’ notify me immediately.”

“Yes, Luna.”

“Please inform all the guards who work the gates,” Thea said.

“Yes, Luna.”

“Thank you,” Thea said.

The triplets and Thea went to the Alpha’s office next and told him everything that happened at school.

“We’ll take in anyone who leaves their pack,” Alpha Ulric said. “You understand that their Alphas may want what they view as their property back?”

“Yes, sir,” they all said together.

“What are you willing to do to protect these wolves and she-wolves?”

“I think it may be time to call a meeting between like- minded Alphas,” Thea said.

“See who is willing to be an ally. If we have enough support, when the Alphas who have slaves come to demand them back, they’ll see they don’t have the power or numbers to take them back by force.”

“You’re willing to go to war?” Alpha Ulric said.

“I am. I know I don’t have a wolf to fight, but our pack is stronger, bigger, and better trained than any other. Once these wolves join the pack, we will teach them to fight too. They’ve been malnourished and haven’t had the chance to train.” Thea sighed.

“Should I ask the pack if they’re willing to fight to protect these wolves since I can’t?”

“No,” Alpha Ulric said. “We don’t live in democratic societies. Alphas are monarchs. We lead. Ideally, we lead with what we know is right. It may be a flawed system when evil people come to power, but when good people are in power, we can’t let evil have influence. That’s how packs develop slaves, omegas, and cultures of abuse. Soon, your word will be law. You will have to enforce that law from time to time. There will always be dissenters, people who want to rebel, take power, test limits. You can’t let them. You lead. You punish crimes, which includes insubordination. One of your greatest strengths is your compassion, Thea, but there’s a light and shadow side to every trait. Don’t let your compassion blind you to people who need sternness. I think now is a good time to practice being stern.”

“Yes, sir.”

“You have my support on this, but I’m putting it all in your hands,” Alpha Ulric said. “After all, you all will be their leaders soon, and you’ll be their leaders for the rest of their lives. It should be you they build their loyalty to.”

“We’ll still need you to accept them into the pack, officially,” Alaric said.

“No, you don’t,” Alpha Ulric said.

“What do you mean?” Conri said.

“Now that you’ve shifted,” Alpha Ulric said. “You have your Alpha powers. Your Alpha tone will get stronger when I pass the acting title to you, but you have the magic to accept people into the pack. Do you remember the words?”
