***”Don’t get so lost in the fight that you lose sight of us. I know we can link from probably any distance, but I want to be able to see you.”*** Oliver jumps in before I can protest Dakota’s demands.
***”You do know that you are all targets now because you are mated to me, right?” They all humm in agreement. “And, that they will probably try to kill you three to get to me, but no one will hurt me, not here. The Rogue King wants me… alive. It would be better if…”***
***”NO!!!”*** They all shout in unison making me flinch.
***”I was not kidding about the bunker, Tiny, and Nathaniel and Wyatt have already volunteered to keep guard and for good measure Mateo and Sam would probably add Sierra and Jena with you.”
Before I can let my anger flare back another report comes in.
“***
***”Alphas, more wolves have started crossing the borders, we are engaging, but could use back up.”
“***
My anger subsides as my training kicks in. I look around assessing who’s with me and the information I have.
“Mateo, Jena, Sam and Sierra. Take a team to the northern border and assist them. The attack has doubled.”
I fook at my mates. “I want to go to the southern border, where there is no scent. I think our skills are better suited there.”
They nod at me “Wyatt, stick to the main entrance. I want to know what’s going on there. Nathaniel, do what you can to get me eyes in the sky. I want to know what’s going on, but stick with Wyatt as back up.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
They both reply and then turn to get to work.
“Lil, I want you with me. Something tells me I’m going to need my feral Gamma.”
She laughs and rolls her eyes.
“I’m going to need that story sometime, Tiny.”
Cam whispers in my ear, giving me chills.
Oliver divides the rest of the group with us and Brett takes Olympia back to the house she was being held in. We are assuming that she is being tracked somehow and don’t want her any further into the pack lands than necessary. Then we all move out.
***”Northern border, give us an update.”***
***”Still fighting, they are better than average wolves, but not super fast and none of them seem to have a personality, if that makes sense. They are mindless and just keep coming out of the woods like ants.”
***”Help is on the way.”*** We move swiftly without wasting any energy on speed. I have a feeling we are going to need it.
As we moved I took in the sights and scents. I can tell exactly the moment we cross into the area being tel blocked. It’s like I got a sinus infection and lost all scent. I can’t even smell the guys right next to me. I can hear noises though, so I know we are getting close to our team here. We all lower ourselves to the ground and belly crawl towards them just to make sure. I can’t trust my senses completely now. I don’t know how or why the magic affects me this way, but I get some things and not others.
***”Oh Sh*t! How are you doing that?!?” Lil basically scolds me. ***”Doing what?”***
***”Unless you are moving, I can’t see you, that’s what.”***
***”Huh?!”***
***”Your fur turned the same color as the forest around you, that’s what.”***
***”She’s right babe, you blend in completely.”*** Oliver scoots closer to me as we slow down to get a better feel for the area. I look at him and I can still see him, but there is a shimmer to his fur. Not like glitter or metal, but a shift in the colors of his fur to match the surrounding area directly behind him.
I keep turning my head and notice Cam and Dakota are the same, then look down at myself and I can see the fur, but as I move or the breeze blows, the colors change to match what’s behind it.
***”All three of you are the same. How are we doing this?”***
***”Part of your magic, I guess. We’re about to find out how well it works. You were right though.”
Oliver bumps my shoulder.
***”You’re going to have to be more specific. What am I right about this time Oliver?”***
