As much as my wolf Flint and I both hate the idea of leaving Envy’s side whilst she’s hurt, I am also sort of excited to see where she stays. You can tell a lot about a person from their house, and Noah and I might just be able to gain an advantage against our brothers by being the ones to go and pack up her things. We head to the pack house in search of Alpha Marcus, he should be able to tell us where to go from there.
“What can I do for you, boys?” He greets us as we enter his office.
“We’re just wondering where Envy stays here. We’d like to pack up her things for her whilst she’s in the hospital.”
He frowns slightly but reaches into his desk drawer and pulls out a single key.
“Master key for the pack rooms. Second floor, right hall, and…” He flicks a few pages in a notebook and scans down it with his finger. “It’ll be room 34. Bring that back to me when you’re done.”
“Thank you, Alpha.” Noah and I reply in sync and head back to the door to leave.
“Oh and boys?” We both turn to look back at him. “Good luck.”
“That was weird…”
“Right? Why would we need luck? She’s our luna, she’ll love us.” Noah puffs his chest out as we make our way to the second floor. We finally find the room marked ’34’ and I slip the key in.
“Future alphas, may I ask what you’re doing here in our pack halls?”
I turn around to find Marcus’s son, future alpha Zion and his future beta, Theo stalking towards us. I remember them vaguely.
“Future alpha, Zion. A pleasure as always.” I smile and hold out my hand but he doesn’t shake it, just scowls at my hand still on Envy’s doorknob.
Noah steps in, “We’re here to pack for our luna while she’s in hospital getting stitched up.”
His eyebrows rise. “Your luna? Envy can’t be your luna, she doesn’t even have a wolf yet. She won’t be able to recognise you.”
I decide to ignore the fresh information about our luna not having a wolf. “Ah but we can recognise her. You know how keen an alpha’s nose is, and our wolves have confirmed.”
“Your father has also approved the transfer for her.” Noah adds in.

“All of you? You’re all mated to her?”
“Yep, lucky girl, right?” I smirk but he scoffs.
“Yeah, if your reputation is as exceptional as I hear it is, she’s so lucky.” The sarcasm is clear as day.
“Our reputation was a lack of judgment that will be corrected now that we’ve found our mate.” I deadpan
back.
He simple grunts and motions for his beta to follow him. Where they’re going? Not my problem.
“Alrighty brother, ready to put some work in for our luna?” I beam and Noah and he nods with a sly grin.
“Go on then, open it already.”
The room is…tiny. Fucking tiny, even our pack rooms are twice this size. She’s got a small bed, a blanket, a single pillow. A desk with a few schoolbooks and a pen and a motorbike figurine… The small ensuite has no personal items other than a hairbrush, toothbrush and paste, a bottle of shampoo and conditioner and a bar of soap.
“Where’s all the girly stuff? Girl are meant to like…stuff, aren’t they?”
Noah pulls his head out of a small closet in the room. “I don’t know man, this is weird, she’s only got a handful of clothes and two pairs of shoes in here.”
“What the fuck?” I look over his shoulder. “I’m going to call Aleisha and get her to order some stuff online. Our mate will like that.”
“Yeah, tell her to get some of that lingerie too!”
“Oohh, yes, good idea!” We give each other a high five, cause yenno, we’re definitely getting brownie points for buying stuff.
Envy.
The sterile smell hits me first, then the bright, harsh lights, then the pain in my shoulder.
“Ah, fuck.” I cuss out.
“Now now, no need to swear little warrior.” Sharlene’s sweet but stern voice makes me smile.
“Oh hey, what’s up? How’s your night going?” I grin up at her.
She crosses her arms and puts down the paperwork she was filling out on the bedside. “My night would be better if my best student wasn’t on my operating table less than half an hour ago and now transferring packs.”

I frown. “I’m not going anywhere, Sharlene. What are you talking about?”
“Well, you might want to inform the three alphas that have been circling your door since you came in. Although I was pretty sure there was meant to be four of them.” She mutters out the last bit. I groan out as I sit up a bit straighter and take a look at her handy work.
“Thirty-seven stitches and a blood transfusion. You’ll live, but you know the drill.” She hands me a bottle of antibiotics. I nod and bite my lip before lowering my voice. “Are they still out there?”
“Yep.”
“Can I use the window?” I point behind me and she rolls her eyes. “From a medical perspective, I would have to highly recommend you don’t do that…but as your friend, well I may be able to go and talk to these alpha’s for a few minutes before allowing them inside. Whatever happens in that time, I am not liable for. Got it?” She winks as I scramble out of the bed and start throwing on my clothes that lay on the chair beside me.
“I love you, Sharlene.”
“Yeah yeah.” She waves her hands around.
Haiden
I wake with a slight headache. I think between the nap and Talen’s increased healing, I’m pretty lucky to only be slightly pained right now. I stretch my legs and hit…a door? I squint my eyes in the dark.
What the fuck are we doing in the back of a car?
We followed mate, but your drunk ass passed out Talen grumbles at me.
Oh shit! That’s right! I leap for the door, and jump out only to be tackled straight onto my back with a brutal force.
“Ah fuck!” The sweetest fucking voice, the smell, the tingles. Fucking hell, this is my mate. I wrap my arms around her as she tries to get off me.
“Shhh, little mate, I’ve got you.” I nuzzle into her neck and inhale deeply.
