“Relax. I’m not here to cause trouble.” Alpha Marc waved off my nervous reaction.

“Alec… food is ready and your dad just walked into the kitchen.” I said trying to keep my voice steady.

“On my way.” Alec responded and I felt his uneasiness.

“Food is just about ready. If you want to go sit down, I will bring out the steaks in a minute.” Turning around, I grabbed an oven mitt and pulled them out. However, he didn’t go to the table. Instead, he stood by the door and watched me slice each steak. I left them on the cutting board as I moved them to the table.

“Kristen?” I heard Alec yell.

“In here!” I answered, completely relieved that he was here.

Alec came through the door and did a double take at his dad. “What are you doing in here?”

“She didn’t tell you I was here?” Alpha Marc looked at Alec like he didn’t believe him.

“Why are you standing in the corner watching her work?” Alec turned and faced his dad.

“I’m not causing any trouble. I just was making sure she was safe.”

“After what she has been through, you thought sitting in the corner and watching her work would be comforting to her?”

Alec looked at his dad in anger. Jasper and a few other warriors walked through the door. All of them looked between Alec and Alpha Marc before deciding to stand beside Alec.

“Let’s all move to the kitchen and eat.” I said trying to break this up.

“Great idea. Anything I can help you with?” Jasper asked. Alec and Alpha Marc didn’t break their stare.

“No, everything is on the table.” I said as I grabbed Alec’s arm and pulled him away from his dad.

Everyone sat down but Alec sat down in the Alpha seat, leaving no room for Alpha Marc. “Okay. I

prepared steaks: you can either have it by itself, make a salad or have a steak sandwich. Really whatever

you want to do. Please dig in.”

No one spoke as we all grabbed a plate and started making our foods. I had already prepared myself a

steak salad so I just picked up my fork and started eating. Alpha Marc grabbed a plate and fix himself a

steak sandwich before retiring to his office. I realized it was only then that everyone let out a breath of air

in relief.

“This is really good.” Jasper said with a mouth full.

“Swallow before you talk to me.” I said giving him a disapproving look.

“Luna…” There was a younger warrior looking rather uncomfortable. He kept glancing at me and back at his food. He was probably the same age as I was but he was skinny.

“Yes?”

“Are you… um….

“Just spit it out, dude.” Another warrior rolled his eyes.

“Are you okay?”

“Yes. I am feeling much better I got my wolf back. Thank you for asking.” I gave him a small smile as we well into a comfortable silence. Alec was in his own little world, staring off into space. His emotions kept changing form anger to acceptance. There was a hint of sorrow but it was quickly replaced by anger.

Seeing that everyone was finished, Alec stood up. “Ready?”

“Yes, Alpha!” They weren’t in unison but close to it.

“Are you coming out with us?” Alec asked as everyone stood up.

“No. I’ll clean the kitchen and then go work in our office until you are done.” Sighing, I stood up and started gathering dishes.

“We will help carry things to the kitchen.” A warrior said as he took the plates from my hands.

“This is much too heavy for you to carry.” Another one said. Soon, all of them were gathering things and taking them to the kitchen. I felt immense pride fill Alec as he watched his men help me out.

“Thank you all!” I said as I followed them in. They even went as far as putting the food away and loading the dishwasher. Since there was so many of them, it only took a few minutes, where it would have taken me an hour to do.

As they left, they all bowed to me. One by one, they walked out the door and went outside to blow some s hit up. “Go to our office and lock the door.” Alec whispered before he k*ssed me on the forehead.
