Chapter 0034
“Yeah….”
…..” We ride in silence the rest of the way. The scenery was beautiful but I couldn’t decide if I was ready to be home or not. With our discovery, we needed to get home. Maybe even launch an attack. Take care of them before they take care of us. Alec even took the main roads to get home. Occasionally, he would make sure I was still behind him or ask me how I was doing but that was about it.

“This is my turn. Your dad is probably at your pack for you about the rogues.” I said to him as my turn was coming up.
“I’ll make sure you get home okay.”
“It’s really okay. Get home. I’ll be okay.”
I could hear the hesitancy in his voice. “You sure?”
“I’m good. Thank you for today. I’ll see you at school!” I tried to sound upbeat as I slowed down to turn.
Alec kept going and as soon as I had turned, I could hear his bike really open up. As if he was driving slow
for me.
It was only another 10 miles until I got home so it took no time. “Dad, where are you?”
“Training field. Home already?”
I didn’t answer as I drove to the front door. Taking off my jacket, gloves and helmet, I half ran to the
practice run. “DAD!”
“Kris, what’s wrong?” He stopped their drill, making all the guys turn and watch me.

“We were looking at the land. There is a wooded area that I was looking around at it.” I was not about to tell my dad what was happening there. Colt and Ace walked up as I talked. “Along a stream, there was a group of rogues. They saw us. We got away and got the soil sample but there was like 15 or 20 of them!”
“S hit dad, that’s not far from here. If they are setting up camp…?”
“That’s Alpha Marc’s land, it;s his call but I’ll reach out and see if he needs anything. Did Alec go home to
tell him?”
“Yeah, I told him not to follow me here. That would be wasting time. If they decide to head this way and
attack since we saw them and they saw us….”
“I’m calling.” Dad pulled out his phone to show me it before dialing. I was aware of the looks I was getting but I did my best to ignore them.
asked me as he tOL
my shoulder.
“Just worried they will attack, I’m good.”
“LISTEN UP!” Dad yelled. Everyone was instantly alert. “Black team, lets go!” Turning to Ace. “You’re in
charge.”
“Yes, sir!” Ace said extremely seriously.
A group of 15 men ran forward and followed dad and Colt as they ran off. I assumed to help Alpha Marc.
“Is there anything else you want to add?” Ace asked me in a very accusatory tone.
“What exactly are you implying Ace?”
“Just asking a question.” His eyes narrowed at me. “I don’t like it.” He didn’t have to explain what he
meant, I knew it.
“Sounds like a you problem.” I said before turning around and walking off. As much as I was concerned about the rogues, I still needed to be responsible to finish all, if any work gets done for all the events.
It was hard to focus but after a few hours, I was finished with every single project for the rest of the ye Thankfully I had finished the other projects this week and budgeted the checkbook so I was able to for
on the rest.
It wasn’t until I was getting ready for bed that there was a knock on the door. Since I had locked it, and the entire packhouse was soundproof, I had to answer the door.
“Hello?”
“Hey, just figured I’d tell you, we were able to stop any attack. We met Alpha Marc just as the rogues were at the edge of town.” Dad was standing there covered in dirt. The sweat had dried and his smell was
thick.
