“If this is a repeating pattern, you have to go back for months or years even and doing that on your own will take a lot of time. Time we could have spent together to let our band form, so I called in some help.” She states and I don’t think twice as I kiss her.

I asked Daxton to link Preston to get him and Pearl to the library, they need to know that there might be a bigger problem than Pearl thought and Preston needs to give the Squad members permission to dive into our finances. Alpha Preston and Luna Pearl walk into the library and Daxton quickly explains what he found, before he tells them about my thoughts on the issue.

“Alpha Preston, each of them are Beta children and know how Pack finances work. It will make it easier to use the resources we have than having to teach someone else what they need to look for.” I say.

“Dallas, drop the title.” Pearl growls and I smile at her as nod my head in acknowledgment.

Pearl and Preston take my Squad members with them to the ground floor, they will be using the Beta office to investigate the books.

“Why did I get kicked out of my office?” Darius asks once the door of the library has closed behind him.

Again Daxton explains what he found and Darius grabs the file to check Daxton’s observations. I smile at Daxton who has a pissed off look on his face, “Don’t believe me, Brother.” I hear Daxton growl.

Darius looks up with a shocked look on his face, realizing his mistake.

“No, that’s not it. I was hoping to see who altered the numbers, Rayden had noticed something similar in the training budget.” Darius explains. “It wasn’t a big amount, just like this discrepancy.”

I tell Darius the same thing I told Daxton and his growl is a lot louder than that of Daxton. I finally explain why he had to give up his office and I see a smile appear on his face

Charna is purring in my head with Daxton and Darius on either side of me, we both like being close to them and I know that our bond is forming just fine.

It will take a few more days before we can feel the sparks of the Mate–bond or for the bond to be fully formed. Once that is done we can mark one another, binding us together until death breaks it or a formal rejection.

I have read about the former way of finding your fated Mate and it had always struck me as a bit odd.

It would only happen during a Full Moon and fighting the bond was nearly impossible. There were those that would reject their fated Mate immediately, but that was mostly because of their rank.

I always wondered what it would be like if you disliked or hated your fated Mate for whatever reason, because most would be unable to fight the bond. Most were marked and mated within hours of meeting one another and that is not enough time to get to know someone in my book

I think it depends on who you ask; which way they would prefer the old way or the new way. Both might have their chart for all of us, but I prefer the new way, probably because it is the only way I know.

“Are you okay, Little One?” Darius asks.

J tell him what ran through my mind and he starts laughing at the scowl Daxton gives me.

“Our family has been the Beta to Silver Crest Pack from its founding days and there are journals on every family member that held the Beta position over the years. One out of three journals mentions a rejection or unhappy Mate

-bond, because one of the two was not pleased with the boil the Goddess gave them.

None of them could fight the Mate bond and by the time they found out that their Mate was a jerk it was too late. Those that got rejected had to walt a long time to find a second chance and some never did.” Daxton says.

I can feel his anger on the issue and it takes me a few minutes to get him to relax again. At least now I understand that Daxton will always choose the new way of finding your true Mate bond.

“Daxton has a point, I never understood the appeal of the old ways either. We have a chance to get to know one another, before the bond is fully formed and that makes me feel a bit more comfortable with it.” I respond.

The only thing I don’t like is that we have to hide it from Mother, I want to put that Bitch back in her place. She can’t control her Son’s life or make decisions for him, she has ruined his life enough as it is and I can’t wait for Joshua to retum.

Maybe our bond will be formed before Joshua returns, but am actually hoping that he will be back here before it does. To rub it in her face that she didn’t see it coming, that her Son had found his connection and a smart woman at that

want to

“Darius also agrees with us, but he also understands the appeal of the old ways. I think he likes that they got mark and mate faster, but he also understands the risks that come with it.” Daxton says and gets smacked on the back of his head by Darius.
