《Bonded By Destiny》Chapter 15

***Alpha Ryker***
'How far are you with the information about that paper? ' I stood at the head of the Maple live edge communal table, waiting for an answer from my appointed pack members.
There were a total of 9 heads in the sound proof meeting room, including mine. Theo, Jayson, Mateo the lead enforcer, Tyron a very good tracker and four other warriors. Their stiff postures had me questioning whether they had heard my question.
'Alpha. ' Tyron stood up, bowing slightly in avowed dutiful respect. He was a teenager gifted with a very exceptional scent tracking ability. His sense of smell and the capability to detect an extremely small difference between many smells made him the best.
'The perfume on the paper is different with that of Monica. ' He spoke in a low fearful voice. He was slightly shaking, my aura was affecting him. His wolf recognised me as his Alpha, the poor kid was in the verge of pissing on himself.
'The difference as he explained was very minute, but it was detectable to his overly sensitive nostrils. ' Jayson jumped into the aid of the poor boy.
'So basically what we are trying to say is that...'
'The perfume was intentionally sprayed on that bloodied paper. ' I cut off Jayson, already aware of what he was going to say next.
'What we are still trying to figure out is why the person would use a perfume similar to that of Monica. ' Mateo joined in.
'There must be something we are overlooking. ' My frustrations were beginning to show, I mean we had no idea what we were facing here.
'Our little mate is wise enough to solve this puzzle. ' My wolf made his presence known as well as his thoughts. I couldn't deny that he was right to some extend, however the idea was also stupid and quite careless.
'No. '
'What do you mean no! ' His exasperation on the statement was undeniably apparent.
'Do you want to endanger the life of your mate over three pieces of paper? ' The mere imagination of anything hurting his mate shut him up. He recoiled in the back of my conscious, then tucked his tail in shame.
'Alpha. ' Kyle, one of the warriors pulled me back to the matter at hand.
'There's something else. ' He paused, waiting for my permission to speak.
'There was a foul smell detected by the group patrolling along the southern creek in the wee hours. ' With a single nod, I gave him the go ahead to continue explaining.
'It was on the same day the paper was picked up. '

'They checked it up and came up with nothing. ' Jayson added, he had an habit of chiming in conversations.
I thought about the foul smell around the same place my mate found the informative paper. Something was undoubtedly similar between the odour and the paper.
'Of course there is, don't you remember the attempted breach on the border the first time I picked up the paper? My mates voice pressed on the inside of my head, startling me slightly at the sudden invasion.
'How the hell did you do that? ' My thoughts were beginning to run wild.
'Exactly how many abilities do you have, how did you know what we are discussing here? '
'Oh calm your tits Alpha. ' My little kitten teased, followed by a short sweet laughter that threatened to awaken my mini me.
'Your wolf pushed forward every single detail of your ongoing meeting.'
'That son of a bit... '
'I suggest you leave it at that before you wake the sleeping giant. Call him a dog and you will have hell to pay. '
'Now back to where we were. ' She sighed before continuing.
'I saw the paper on the edge of the river meadows, right after the attempted border breach. The second time, I picked it on my most favourite part of the forest, where Jax's blood had been spilled. The recent one, was around the Southern creek, right after the foul smell got detected by your warriors. ' The recap of every scene, enlivened my third eye.
'There is always one thing happening before the paper is found. We just have to identify the distraction when you picked up the second one. '
'That's not all Alpha Ryker. '
'Oh come on...We are past that Tamara, it's Ryker to my mate. Stop the stupid formalities before I storm out of this place, find you and fuck some sense into you. ' My wolf and I didn't like the idea of our little mate possibly fearing us. We wanted her to to experience substantial unrestrained comfort around us.
'The papers were strategically place on those three places. One because I think the places are rarely accesses by the pack members, and two...'
'Direction!' I jumped in the mind conversation.
'The first one was on the Eastern River Meadows, the second on the Northern part of the pack and the third one on the Southern creek. ' The mut behind this was clearly using a stipulated plan, and if there was going to be a fourth one, it would be placed on the Western side of the border.

'The boulder. ' My mate had just helped me make a step into the mystery papers.
'Don't tell them a thing, you never know the person behind this. ' She whispered in my head as if the wolves in the meeting room would catch on.
'What do you mean? ' Was she suggesting that there was a rat in my pack?
'Might, there might be one. That would explain why the culprit goes undetected every time. Limit the information you share with your team. Trust is to be earned. ' Her presence in my mind then evaporated.
'Alpha! '
'Do you have to be this loud Jayson? ' I swear I could feel a tingling sensation in my ears.
'We've been trying to get your attention for three minutes. ' He pointed out, making me take in the questioning expressions on the men's faces.
'I want the patrol warriors along the borders doubled for the next one week. ' From his single bow, Jayson knew it was his duty to organise the patrols.
'Mateo, make sure every pack member stays on the watch out for any peculiar person or situation. Theo, you will work with Tyron to search for any distinct, new smell in my pack. He is an asset to us, he must be protected at all times. '
Their 'yes Alpha' earned a satisfactory feeling inside of me before I dismissed them.
'Alpha! the claiming ceremony will be in a few days, you might want to have our Luna protected too. ' The narrowly recognisable distaste as he uttered the word Luna didn't pass my insightful hearing. But nonetheless, I chose to let it slide, for now. The only thought in my mind was feeling Tamara's sweet channel milking me.
With that thought, I sped out of the board room, my wolf panting in anticipation.
'Alpha!! ' A frantic voice reached my ears just as a young girl dropped on my feet panting, seemingly out of energy.
'What's wrong pup. ' My Alpha protective mode kicked in, my wolf coming out at the sight of the disoriented pack pup. She was my responsibility, and required nothing shot of my full attention.
'It's grandma, she has been bit hit Alpha, she's barely breathing please!!!'
'Who is your grandma little girl, take me to her. '
'Mimi. ' Oh fuck! the old werewolf possessed a very unique power. She had the ability to not only see the past, but pick out specific words in any conversation her mind picked on.
'Mimi's life is in danger, I need the warriors patrolling near her place to check her now. ' I mind linked my warriors uniformly.
'Jayson, find Tamara and accompany her to Mimi's house. ' I cut off the mind link before running at a comfortable pace with the girl beside me.
'It's a distraction Alpha!!! ' Tamara panicked voice filled my head yet again.
'What? '
'The force is taking over my spirit and body. mee...' Then the communication was abruptly cut off, followed by a loud earth shaking scream from my mate.
The culprit was on the move.
'I will catch up with you in a minute, there is another emergency. The Beta is on the way, I also have warriors in your granny's place as we speak. One of the pack doctors is on the way too.'
My wolf pushed forward, taking over my being in every sense. His blood lust for the person who had been causing ruckus in our pack spiked up. The need to keep everyone safe especially his mate took over, making me shift in an instant.
In my place now stood my Alpha wolf, he shook his fur dominantly, raised his tail high, then sprinted full speed towards the western boulder. He knew that's where our culprit would be, if Tamara was right.
Our Alpha instincts took over, the overflow of stupendous vivacity pushing our muscles harder. The pack members made way for their rage driven Alpha. Buildings zoomed past me, then finally trees and finally I stood before the boulder.
To our despondency, only our mate kneeled down on the grass ground below the boulder, another piece of paper in her hand.
This one was just like the first two, no scent whatsoever.
I'm watching you
The words were boldly written, mocking my Alpha abilities plainly. How could this happen under my watch?
'I narrowly missed him. ' My little witch spoke, still clutching the tiny thing in her hand.
'Him? ' My wolf invaded her thoughts, wanting to stay in the animal form, just in case the 'predator' came back.
'He's a man, disguised in a black overall with a matching mask, barefooted to be precise. ' She paused, her silence stretching for what felt like ages.
'I caught a glimpse of his eyes ' She tilted her neck, raising her face to look at my wolf.
'I didn't physically see him, the force somehow could see this far as it wrenched me across the forest. '
'The force showed it to you? ' We voiced our question telepathically yet again.
'His eyes, his eyes are oddly familiar. Only that they had nothing but utmost malice in them.

War of Seasons
Dorothea Atlin is the young, apathetic leader of the neutral territory of Sirpo, a chilly land hovering above the continuously warring factions of Sacer and Ghuria, whose devastating magics have ravaged their people and lands time and time again. Following a shocking attack and a cruel deception, Dorothea grows her conscience and takes up arms, using her self-destructive ability to manipulate the flow of time to ensure Sacer’s victory. Her growing understanding of war and the two factions is guided by Iree Nobelis, the determined and enthralling commander of Sacer’s forces, Ariana Kingfisher, a steely swordswoman of mixed Ghurian and Sacerian descent, and Rhys Tamlin, a kind but haunted soldier who goes to challenge Dorothea’s self-imposed celibacy and join her on a mutual journey of healing from the tragic legacies of the Atlin family and wars between the nations. Meanwhile, Dorothea’s only friend and deserter from the Sacerian military, Shark Olyen, returns to their homeland to face the family that disowned them and finds more than they bargained for in meeting Cerid Creed, a noble whose duty to his people clashes with his desires in romance and in life, much like Shark’s did long before. As their developing or preexisting loves and differing convictions on how to achieve peace create rifts between these major players, Dorothea experiences a personal revolution that leads her to fight for what she believes is right, no matter the cost. A slow-burn story that takes time setting up the psychology and motivations of characters for explosive payoff later down the line. Cover by Ben Arisson, who is also a wonderful author on this website!
