Ch 27 Goddess Gifted

A few minutes later, they were in the Alpha’s office. No one was talking. Thea pulled out her phone and texted Lizzy.

“Hey, be careful. There was a rogue on the pack lands. They’re doing a sweep of the whole property. Everyone is okay. I’ll keep you updated as I find out info. Keep your senses up. Let me know you’ re okay, or if you want me to send someone to escort you home.”

Lizzy texted back immediately. “I’m fine. Are you okay??”

“Yeah.”

“Hmm. I guess we’ll talk when I get back?”

“For sure. Seriously, be careful.”

Just then, Liam walked into the office wearing a different pair of basketball shorts. “Alpha, sir.”

“Have a seat. Let’s go over yesterday’s report,” Alpha Ulric said.

“We spotted three rogues and two wolves watching Thea yesterday,” Liam said.

The triplets sat up straight and leaned forward. That got their attention.

Thea sat back and folded her arms across her chest. She didn’t expect this. Why hadn’t she noticed? Honestly, she wasn’t looking for anything. She didn’t think it was a possibility.

“We had to dispatch two of the rogues,” Liam continued. “They were particularly vicious. The third managed to escape. The two affiliated wolves didn’t give up their packs. They each claimed not to know her, that they happened to notice her and take an interest. Lewd things were said I won’t repeat. Two of my men are tracking them as we speak.”

His eyes glazed over.

“Sir, my team just reported. The rogue on pack lands masked his scent. They followed his tracks to the highway, where they lost the trail. It looks like he got picked up by a car. Given how quickly the rogue got away yesterday, I think that’s what happened there too. It suggests an organized collective of rogues or someone hiring rogues to work together. Possibly rogues and affiliated wolves are working together unless multiple parties are looking into her separately.”

“Thank you, Liam. Have your team come to me immediately. We’ll need to start the investigation with them. I don’t believe it’s any of your men, Liam, but I don’t want to believe anyone in the pack could be part of this. No one can be left out.”

“Understood. They know it’s part of the position.”

“You’re dismissed.”

Liam left.

“I’s this because we made our relationship public, Dad?” Conri said. “Did we put a target on her back?”

“They wouldn’t have been able to organize something like this that quickly. This is a long time in the making, which makes it all the more likely that someone in the pack is involved. Someone who suspected Thea was special.”
