Ch 34 Chump

It took a week to get things in order, but Thea’s parents—Beta Walter and his wife, Naomi— finally left to visit Walter’s brother’s pack, Full Moon.

Liam requested a meeting with the Alpha. Thea and the triplets were required to attend.

“Sir, the latest group of Delta trainees are coming home soon,” Liam said. “They’ve finished their terms serving in the military, and I’ve called home the men doing time in private security and private investigation.”

The pack members who wanted to join Delta team enlisted in the military to get experience and training. They were sent in groups to the military so they could serve together, learn to work together, and bring that trust and camaraderie back home.

“As soon as they’ re back, they will complete Delta training. Then if they want to commit, they will take the oath to the future Luna, and we will initiate them. We should know before she shifts how many more we’ll have as permanent members.”

Woah. No Delta team member had ever sworn an oath to Thea. Not to her knowledge anyway. What was Liam talking about?

“In addition to that, I think we should make an open call to add to the pack warriors. Maybe offer part-time positions. If we go to war, the more people we have that get training and experience, the better. In the meanwhile, we’d have more patrolmen on the borders.”

“Make it so,” Alpha Ulric said.

“It may be helpful to bring in experts for training, so we’ re free to continue running down leads on who is after her,” Liam said.

“Whatever resources you need, you have them,” Alpha Ulric said.

“Sir, as her shift comes closer, I think it expedient we Start training a contingency of guards for the future Luna.”
