The Alpha's Surprised Mate (Book #1 of Silver Moon Series) novel Chapter 27

Twenty-Seven: New Target

Unknown

We had been sitting around in my office trying to figure out who those two sisters were and how in the hell we could get a hold of them. Obviously, cornering them was not an option. We still have no idea who they are and why they are. I know my mom is still trying to figure it out. The three of us are sitting there forming a new plan when my mother comes bursting into my office.

“What the hell mom,” I exclaim.

“Sorry boys, I didn’t mean to scare you. I figured out who they are.” She shrieks.

The three of us sit there as she tells us who they are. To say we were shocked would be an understatement. They are fucking goddesses. Not just any goddesses, fucking daughters of our own moon goddess. Well, now, this is a fantastic opportunity. Now we have to figure out how to control these two, so I can retake my pack back. This is not going to be an easy plan. Those two are deadly, and the other five are not going to be easy either. We are going to have to come up with a whole new approach. Plus the fact that one of the sisters is Beta's mate. This is going to take a while to figure out. Good thing we have time.

I was beginning to think whoever pulled that last failed attempt gave up. I was sitting in my office at work. I only came in now if I needed to. I have started working from home more. Nate and Kaleb come in more than I do. Mykayla is only working from home unless absolutely necessary. It had been a month now, and Mykayla was getting bigger by the day. At our last ultrasound, we found out that we are having a boy. I am so fucking happy. I know Mykayla had her heart set on a girl, but there is always the next time. Our fathers are still helping to try and figure out who was behind the incident. I was just about to finish up when I got a call from Brandon at the packhouse. He was wondering if Kaleb, Nate, or I had heard from any of the girls. I told him, as far as I was aware, no. I heard him start swearing, and I started to get concerned. I tell him that I am on my way home. I mind link Kaleb and Nate and letting them know what is going on. Of course, they start freaking out. I tell them to calm down and that it may be nothing. These girls did tend to do things and not tell anyone. They could easily be shopping the next town over. They meet me in my car, and we all ride back together. When we get back, nothing seems out of the ordinary. The three of us walk in and go to change out of our suits.

“What’s going on?” I ask.

"Honesty, we don’t know. At this time all we know is that no one has seen or heard from any of the girls since this morning. Which can be normal.” Donte admits.

I look at Kaleb and Nate and can tell that they are concerned. I understand that their mates are possibly missing or not. If it were Mykayla, I would be the same way. All we can do is wait and see.

It’s been about two hours when all seven come waltzing in like nothing. They are chatting away as if everything is normal. We all just stare at them. First, let's just say that it is fucking snowing outside. Winter started early this year. What are they dressed in, shorts and t-shirts or tank tops? They all clearly have bikinis on underneath. What the actual fuck.

“Well hello ladies,” I say to them.

“Well, hello to all of you sexy men,” Leah replies with a smile.

“Where in the hell have you been? No one has seen you all day.” Ashton blurts out.

“Sitting on the beach in the Caribbean. It's too fucking cold here plus snow. YUCK.” Bryn explains calmly.

They continue to make their way upstairs to go change, I am guessing. I look over at Chris, and he just shrugs his shoulders. By the look he gives me, I guess this is normal. These girls are going to drive us crazy. Kaleb is just sitting there speechless. I mean, there is really not much to say. Apparently, my gut instincts were right. Not two days later, all hell broke loose. Again the three of us were at work when I got a call from dad. He said we needed to talk and that it was urgent and to bring Kaleb and Nate. I knew it was serious when he wanted the three of us.

I sent a mind link the other two and told them all I knew. We head back to the packhouse expecting something bad. We change into something comfortable and head down to the rec room.

“What is the emergency, dad,” I ask.

“We figured out who that smell belonged to in the street. It belongs to one of the old Crimson Tide Pack. Whoever is was smells like the old Alpha.” Collin (Nate’s dad) says.

The Crimson Tide Pack was the pack that dad absolved into ours when I was like 2 or 3 years old. They tried to take over our pack with some stupid blackmail scheme that failed. I was unaware that he had any children or a mate. I wonder what his kid is up to. We were discussing this new development when two of our scouts came in carrying Leah and Bryn. Both were unconscious, and obviously, they’d been in another fight. We had the scouts place them on the couches, and dad mink linked mom and aunt Mandy. I felt that the rest were not much better if these two were in this kind of shape. Mom and Aunt Mandy had been there working on Leah and Bryn when three of our warriors came in carrying Jailynn, Daniylla, and Alexis. As I guessed, they looked just as bad and unconscious. Thank god we had numerous places to lay these girls. Mom and Aunt Mandy began working on the three of them. I looked over to see Kaleb on the verge of losing his shit. I could see his going between anger and looking absolutely scared as to why Kylani and Mykenzie were still missing. I was just about ready to have us shift and go searching when there was a loud bang outside of the door. Mykayla came running in frantic, followed by Natalya.

“Help, please they are on the stairs, and they are hurt and bleeding.” Mykayla was hysterically crying.

I didn’t even have to ask who she was talking about. Kaleb took off, followed by Reecie. I had to nickname him since he and dad have the same name. He was not happy with the nickname, but it stuck. For fuck sake, when we got to the stairs, it was not a good sight. Mykenzie and Kylani are unconscious, and there is blood. Kaleb looks like he is going to have someone’s head. I feel the same way. These girls might be a pain in the ass and all, but they have grown on me, and even if they are all older than me, they are all like sisters to me. Someone has hurt people I now consider family. Plus, someone attacked our Beta female. That is an offence that is punishable by death. Kaleb and Reecie (he!he!) pick them up and carry them back down to mom and Aunt Mandy. By this time, the rest of the parents have shown up. I almost have to order Kaleb to put Kylani down, but he does it on his own. It turns out that all the blood on them is not theirs. They have a few spots that will be bruises tomorrow, but they are also unconscious. Reecie calls Rye over, and he inspects all the girls.

“AH! HA! Someone slipped them something to sedate them but it wasn’t enough. Obviously, it kicked in by the time these two got back here, but not enough to do whatever they had planned.” Rye states.

“It’s the same smell from the street,” Dad says.

We explain the Crimson Tide Pack. I am not sure what they want with the girls, but it is obvious that they are after them. It may have been Mykayla in the beginning, but now they have a new target.

“This means someone has figured out who they are and are hoping to somehow use them against you.” Chris points out.

Oh, these guys have some balls! If they want a war, then they just got one. I look over at the seven of them lying there hurt and drugged, and I know we need to start formulating a plan. These bastards have targeted the wrong fucking women and the wrong fucking pack.
