章 24: Chapter 24: Patient Embrace

James and Elizabeth left the Sycamore Pack in the morning. They would head north from where they were, further away from the Moirai Pack.

Ordinarily, the Alpha would have gone with an escort, with guards to protect him, and with his Luna.

But the council was going to be held the day after tomorrow. They didn’t have the time to wait for someone to go back to the Moirai, and then journey back to the Sycamore just to bring a few wolves.

James felt he would be safe enough. So he and Elizabeth set out together.

Kenneth had been sent back with his new family to the Moirai. Wherever Kenneth would go from then on, his mate would go with him; the mate bond was so strong that any kind of separation would be impossible. And since Ayla had a young son dependent on her, it meant wherever Kenneth went, his family would follow him.

And a war council was not the place for a little pup to be.
