After | dropped Cara off at her room, | went to speak to my father. He is as concerned as | am about the potential
for a coming war that Ailduin referenced. We will have to meet with our allies and determine if there is anything
we have overlooked. While it is possible that this is the first tthat two Guardians have actually been fated
mates, as werewolves, we are a violent species, constantly fighting for power, land, strength. It makes sense
that the Moon Goddess knew that a war was coming and was preparing us for it.
The next morning at breakfast, we begin making preparations to head hwhen Clint surprises us all. “Ailduin
has invitedto stay and I'm going to take him up on his offer.”
“What do you mean? For how long?” Cara asked.
“He would like to chronicle the lives of your mother and I, or more specifically, Andra and Donovan. | have
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdecided to stay and help to put that information into history. Your mother deserved that. She deserved to be
recognized for what she did.”
“As do you.” My father chimes in. | had noticed that while Clint was speaking Ailduin was watching my father. Did
he still think my father would deny Clint staying here? | guess given his history, he would. But | know my father.
He loves Clint like a brother and Cara like a daughter. He will treat them as family, not as a commodity to hold on
to for his own gain. My father is an honorable man.
My father turns to Ailduin. “If Clint becomes too humble, letknow, I'll tell you the real story of what he did.”
Ailduin nods.
Clint rolls his wheelchair over to Cara. “You're nearly an adult and | know you can take care of yourself, but
Anders will be checking in on you.” He looks over at me. “And | know Rik will be looking after you as well.” | nod
at him. Of course | will. | won't let anything happen to my mate.
“How long will you be gone?” She asks him. | can hear her voice trembling a little.
“As long as it takes, but | will definitely be hfor your birthday. | expect you to continue to train, go to school
and make good grades.”
“Of course dad.” She hugs him and we grab our bags, ready to leave. We thank Ailduin, my father reiterating
that we would like to rebuild our alliance. | think this weekend has gone a long way towards getting there.
Since Clint drove to the fae land, we will have to run home. It’s not a big deal
except that we have our bags. Ailduin has a guard drive us to the old, rickety looking gate that we entered
through. Once we pass through the gate, the glamor returns and it looks like a forest filled with trees surrounded
by a fence.
We shift and begin our journey. I'm pleasantly surprised that Artemis is able to easily keep up with us during the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlong trek home. She seems to be back at full strength. We howl our arrival just before crossing the borders and
head straight to the pack house. My father disappears and | don’t expect to see him or my mother again for the
rest of the night. We've arrived in tfor lunch and as we are getting dressed, | hear Cara’s stomach growl.
“Let's eat, then we can head over to your house. Or would you rather stay here while your father is gone?” | ask
her.
She looks around the pack house. “I think I'd rather stay at my house, if you don’t mind.”
“I don’t mind, but I'm going to tell you. I don’t like you being there alone, so I'll be staying with you.” Her
beautiful smile drawsin and | wrap my arms around her waist.
“Is that code for you plan on working your way into my bed Alpha?”
| kiss her nose. “Nope. | know you're waiting for your mate and | will respect that. Now, if you choose to spend
the night withon the couch...” | smile at her before pulling her into the dining hall.
