Chapter 3: Conditions

Justin’s POV

When we get to the edge of their territory I start to feel Tanner start to pace at the pack of my mind and my anxiety starts to rise. We are waiting at the gates that, I’m assuming are at every entrance, waiting to be led through. One of the guards knock on my window at the drivers side so I roll it down.

“Can I get your name and the reason you are here requesting entry onto our land sir?” The man says. He has blonde hair, blue eyes, and I’m guessing stands around 6’5”. The exact look of any worrier that should be on guard duty.

“Yes. My name is Alpha Justin Richards, and your Alpha and I have a meeting at 4pm sharp.” I inform him and as I say that I am here for a meeting with his alpha all the color drain from his face. “Is there a problem with that pup?” I ask in an impatient tone of voice.

“No sir. Wait one moment while I verify your information with our Beta.” He states then his eyes cloud over like he is mind linking someone. “Your free to go. Open the gate.” He commands the men up front.

When we are allowed through the gate we still have about 10 minutes before we reach the pack house. I notice that as I’m driving down the dirt road we have wolves on both sides and at the back of the Denali guarding us and they don’t stop until we are about a minute from the pack house.

Once we get there I am the first to exit. I smelt something so delicious that it smacked me like a ton of bricks. Strawberries and Vanilla. I searched for the owner and it didn’t take long because when my brown eyes met a pair of emerald ones tanner cried mate and I could feel my eyes darkening and at the same time tears stung them.

“Mine” I said it. The one word that held so much meaning to me. I raced up the steps to capture her in my warm embrace and I let my tears flow freely. I sobbed until I felt her body go limp and I looked at the man I assume to be her Beta and tell him we need the pack doctor now. I didn’t let anyone near her except for the pack doctor whose name I learned is Eric.

“Excuse me Alpha Richards, Can I please have a word with you.” The man with the salt and pepper hair asked.

“Um, yeah, sure.” I said reluctantly. I got up and followed him out of the hospital room that holds my beautiful mate.

“There is something that as her uncle I need to tell you.” He started and looked at me as if he was waiting for an answer to a question that was not yet asked.

“Tricia is a very special girl and not even she knows how special she is. She isn’t a full werewolf. You see Tricia has some witch in her as well. You must not tell her, she must find out for herself it was her mothers last wish. She doesn’t know that because the day her parents died I was the one who took her out of the house to shield her from the tragedy and the horror of the murder. Also, she is our Alpha so I’m not sure what is going to happen now.” He told me and stopped to let everything he said sink into my brain.

I just nodded and went to my mate’s room to wait for her to wake up.

Tricia’s POV

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP

I try to open my eyes to figure out where I am but as soon as I do I instantly regret it. I groan from the lights. I feel sparks in my left hand and jump a little startled.

“It’s okay baby, its only me. Do you want me to get the doctor, or maybe some water?” He asks and his voice is like music to my ears.

“Yes please, to both of those questions.” I say in a scratchy voice.

“Alright baby girl, give me just a second.” He told me before kissing my forehead and exiting my room.

I must admit he is stunning. Brown eyes with dirty blonde hair, he has an athletic build, and stands about 6’3”. I intend to keep my promise to my wolf and to myself. I’m not just going to hand over my pack to someone I don’t even know. I’ll give him a month maybe two, and if I don’t feel as though I can trust him to keep my pack safe then we will not be merging the packs and I will remain the Alpha instead of becoming a Luna.

I’m startled but the door opening to reveal my mate and Dr. Eric. I smile warmly at the two.

“So, doc how long do I have to be in this bed? I have training with the pack and a new pack I must be introduced to.” I asked while smirking at my mate who seems puzzled and disturbed by the thought of me training my pack. “Is there a problem pretty boy?” I ask

“We will discuss this after the doctor looks you over.” He said and I could tell he was already irritated by my actions.

“Alpha you are free to go as soon as I make sure your vitals and pupillary response is all normal.” Dr. Eric informed me.

While he ran his tests it looked like he had a far off look on his face. Almost like him and his wolf are having an argument. It’s kind of cute in a way. I just giggled to myself.

“Okay, why do you have to train anybody? Don’t you have someone that could do it for you?” He questioned me, and it struck a nerve.

“Listen here mister, and you better listen closely. I will not be changing anything until I know whether or not I can trust you enough to take over my pack in a merge.” I informed him. “I will run My pack as I see fit am I understood.” I said with a menacing scowl.

“I understand, but then I have a condition of my own.” He said with a sly but sexy smirk of his own.

“Alright, I’m listening.” I said.

“You have to let me and my pack join yours for training.” He told me.

“Okay” I simply said before adding in a devilish tone “But your going to see just how hard and tough my pack trains and why they say my pack is the strongest.”

He stood there mouth agape like a dumb ass so I popped off “Close that up before you catch a fly.” and he did it no questions or complaints. I just shook my head grinning.
