I just sit in silence along with everyone else after my questions. I see the recognition in the eyes of the warrior standing behind him, he at least remembers me. We didn't have to actually fight, but we did run patrols while their warriors were tended to and healing. I scheduled the patrol routes myself with Gamma Brett and Delta Kyle.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I thought you looked familiar." The warrior behind Alpha Brecc spoke up, getting a glare from his Alpha, but cutting the tension a bit. I just nod my head and wait for my questions to be answered, which are more than likely going to cfrom this warrior than the Alpha.
He was clearly having a conversation over the mindlink with his Alpha now and skind of agreement was struck as the warrior looked back at me" We have maintained the patrol routes that your team set up for us, but we have few warriors and they are spread thin, patrolling the whole of the territory and we have the beach side of the territory to think of. We do not have the high vantage point that your pack does to maintain a good visual out to the sea." That was something I knew, because I pointed it out. Delta Kyle and Gamma Brett also suggested watch towers be constructed to give them a better vantage point. Something that hasn't happened if they are still bringing it up.
"Did you construct the watchtowers as suggested by my Gamma and Delta?" I know the answer, but this Alpha is being a d*ck and I feel the necessity to put him in his place" Have you trained your pack members to defend themselves, also a suggestion by my Gamma and Delta?" I almost forgot other people were in the room. My only reminder is the gentle shake of Xander's shoulder next to me. Is he laughing? I turn just slightly so I can make eye contact.
He leans to whisper in my ear" You are amazing, this guy is a pain in the ass at the best of times. I've never seen him this flustered." I just roll my eyes at him and fight a smile.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Umm, we haven't had the opportunity to complete those projects yet." The warrior answerslooking awkward.
"Haven't had the opportunity, or chosen not to do them? If you want help and assistance you have to show that you are willing to put in just as much effort. Each pack here has their own situations to deal with. The point of the Kingdoms alliance is to assist, not do the work for another pack. Training your pack members, all of them, should be your first priority.
They don't need to be elite warriors, but having the confidence to defend themselves and their families and get to safety is nonnegotiable. The plans for your watchtowers were drawn up for you, all that needed to be done was construct them. That is your second priority.
Once those things are done, then cand ask for additional assistance" I emphasized the word, "and we can move forward from there." Sa *h the (F)indNvI.{et website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
