I rubbed my temples in stress. "Shut it the lot of you" I snapped, voice loud enough that everyone heard

it. Usually people ignored me when I shouted at them, but the must have been something in either my

tone or in my angry eyes, because they actually all shut up. Silence reigned in the room for a few

seconds, as everyone looked at me, before Rafa made another complaint and everyone began to

shout and argue again.

"Dios Mio" I muttered, shaking my head at the men in the room. Idiots, the lot of them.

The exchange had been successful, all the Yellowstone Wolves – minus two that didn't want to leave –

had their chips taken out and replaced with actual Wolves. But, Rafa had quickly found out that his

mother was not one of the She-Wolves taken, like his family had told him. But, he didn't believe them.

His idea was to go further into Yellowstone and find her, even though the other Yellowstone Wolves

assured him that she had never been there. But, Rafa was a stubborn bastard and tried to go.

However, Javier jumped in to stop and contained his cousin...and that had gone down as well as a lead

balloon.

When they'd all arrived back at the Black Bloods Pack, Seth had called a meeting and everyone joined.

The Yellowstone Wolves were all being seen by the doctor – except Kim who laughed in Seth's face Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

when he told her she wasn't needed in the meeting. I had to say, despite the fact she slightly scared

me, I admired Kim's gusto. She looked into the eyes of the strongest Alpha in the country and laughed

at him – heck, I didn't laugh at Seth when he was stressed, the boy had a serious temper on him.

So, then began the arguing.

Rafa, the giant douche, was still harping on about his mother. Chris was trying to calm Javier down.

Seth wanted to head back to Equinox Pack straight away and claim the Alpha title back, Dean was in

agreement. Josh and Oli wanted to wait a little while. And me...well I had the worst fucking headache in

a long time.

"Enough all of you" Kim suddenly yelled, jumping to her feet. And, unsurprisingly, everyone listened to

her. Kim screamed intimidating without even doing anything; her dark hair short and harsh around her

sharp facial features. Her tall and muscled figure was a covered in a collection of scars, even on her

face. She was wearing a pair of tight black jeans and a black leather jacket and – they were hidden –

but I was pretty sure I saw her pull two different knives out of her pockets to clear her nails at one point.

"Now that all you apes are flinging shit at each other, can we please actually discuss what is going on

here" she said, acting like she was talking to a group of delinquent children. "Rafa, dude, your mother

is dead and that sucks, but this hissy fit ain't gunna bring her back. You, pretty boy" she said, turning to

Chris, "stop fussing over the other pretty boy, I bleed more on my period". She then turned to Seth,

"and you, 'almighty Alpha', please make a fucking decision. Are you taking over your Pack now or

tomorrow? You're the fucking Alpha, just make a choice and stick to it. Either way it doesn't really need

this much bitching".

Silence rang in the room before I laughed. "I like this girl. I agree with all of that" I grinned, before

turning to Chris, "except the pretty boy thing". He flipped me off before I turned back to my mate. "But

she's right, Seth, it's up to you".

"Thanks Hunger Games" Kim snorted unattractively.

"No problem Resident Evil" I shot back.

"What?" she frowned, confusion obvious.

"Watch the movies, I think you'll enjoy them" I commented, before ignoring Kim completely and turning

back to Seth. "You have to make the decision. Are we doing this now or not?"

Seth was quiet for a moment, watching me closely, before turning to me. "Do you have the backpack I

gave you?"

I nodded, "yeah I got it". I handed Seth a rucksack, who looked through it with a soft nod before

throwing the bag back at me. I caught it and flung it on my back. "So we're going now?"

Seth nodded, "yes let's go get our Pack back".

Before we left, Seth called a Pack meeting of the Black Blood Wolves. The Pack was significantly

smaller than our Pack, so it didn't take them long before they were all around us. After a few words to

the Pack, and introducing them to their new Luna, Seth then gestured to Josh.

"I have explained previously that May and I will be splitting our time between this Pack and the Equinox

Pack and I'll be assigning a Commander to watch over the Pack when I am away. However, I am

returning to the Equinox Pack now and for the time I am away, Josh will be in charge. Josh is the Beta

of the Equinox Pack and a very trusted friend. He'll be in charge over the next few days while my mate

and I deal with issues in the Equinox Pack".

"A commander, huh?" Kim muttered to herself.

"Don't get any ideas Evil Resident" I commented back to her, she just sent me a mischievous grin.

Seth spoke a little more to everyone before dismissing everyone. It all went quickly after that. Seth,

Dean and I then climbed into a car and Dean drove us back towards the Equinox Pack. The car ride

was silent and heavy, the radio easing very little tension.

"Seth?" I spoke up from the back seat. My mate made an incoherent noise, telling me that he was

listening and for me to continue. "With Dale...are we...maybe we could..." I trailed off.

"May, we've been over this" Seth sighed, but I also knew that his silence was due to his internal debate.

"And I want to go over it one more time before we get home" I replied snappily, not liking that he was

dismissing me again – although I knew it was more to do with his own doubts rather than my voicing of

them. "Dale is your brother, Seth, your baby brother. Do you really want to do this? We have a Pack

now, we can just go back to Black Bloods and keep that Pack as our own".

"Equinox is our home, Mabel, and I am not giving it up. We run the top Pack in the country, no one

else".

"So this is all about power and Pack numbers?" I shot back. I was well aware that I was pushing Seth

when he was stressed and nervous, but it had to be done. Seth had to be sure of the decision he was

doing and I was the only person that could truly challenge him on the choices he made.

"No, of course it's not just about power. It's about our home, our Pack and our people. I made a vow to

the Equinox Pack when I was eighteen that I would never allow any harm to come to them. Harm came

in the form of my brother and we have to remove him in order to eliminate the harm".

"Fine" I said softly. The conversation ended for a few seconds, before Seth glanced in the driving mirror

and our eyes met. We shared a soft look, as we both knew that he had to do this. The Equinox Pack

was ours and it was our opportunity to take it back.

When we got the Equinox Pack, my stomach was turning inside out and butterflies were fluttering so

fast I thought I might throw up. We pulled the car to a stop near the cabin we had been living in, before

making our way towards the centre of the territory.

Seth took my hand and gave me a small smile, easing some of the tension. He leant down and kissed

me cheek, before his lips moved to my ear. "You know what you have to do".

I nodded softly, before kissing him back. "Let's home this works".

Seth's hand traced my cheek, "it was your plan, of course it's going to work". Dean followed the two of

us, as we walked through the Pack and to the centre. It was early evening and the sky was beginning

to darken, Seth gave my hand a squeeze before dropping it and walking into the Pack offices. Dean

and I waited nervously outside.

After a few minutes, Seth walked out – his head held high – with Dale following him. Seth and I made

eye contact, before he took a deep breath and whistled. The noise cut through the air and silenced

everyone around the Pack village. All the eyes turned to the brothers – equally handsome and equally

dominate.

I let out a shaky breath as the Pack began to gather around. Seth and I shared one more nod, before

Seth addressed Dale and the Pack. "I cannot challenge you for your position, due to the ruling of the

Council. However, I am the rightful Alpha of this Pack. So, you will step aside".

Dale was quiet for a second, before speaking. "You know I can't step down".

"Only your death will be the only way I get my Pack back" Seth announced. Chatter waved through the

Pack members, nervously, as Dale nodded slowly – as if he had almost expected this to come.

"So, are you going to kill me brother?" Dale questioned. His voice was calm and clear, reminding me a

lot of Seth. Too much like Seth for my liking. I shivered uncomfortably.

"Yes. Today Dale Zev will die" Seth announced.

And then, he smiled.
