When the meeting was over with Oakleys dad and we were all getting ready to head to the dining hall for dinner there was a knock on my office door. 

“Come in.” I said. The door opened to show my beta and a couple of my warriors. 

“Alpha. We have a report on the rogue camp. Do you have a moment to meet?” Beta Jack asked me. I looked over at Oakley who nodded. She started to usher her grandparents, my parents and her dad out of the room so they could head to dinner. 

hope you plan on telling me more about it later.” Came Oakleys voice in my mind. 

“Of course my angel. Anything involving the pack is your business as well.” I replied. 

“Wait, Eric and dad, can you guys stay for this please?” I asked Oakleys dad and mine. they both stopped, exchanged looks and nodded. Oakleys dad was a head warrior in his previous pack and he would be replacing my current head warrior so he could retire like he wanted. I felt it was best to fill him in on the situation as well as my dad. They sat down in the chairs if front of my desk and when the door was closed behind everyone else I sat down as well. 

“Okay, so before I get your report I would like to fill Eric in on what has been found.” I told beta jack. He nodded. 

“Eric, across the border, just there (I pointed to the spot marked on the territory map on the wall) is a rogue camp. we have no idea why they are there or what they want,” I told him. He studied the map for a moment before turning back to me and nodding in understanding. I told him about the rogues I ran into on my way back from the alpha council and what they had said there as well. Then I turned to beta jack. 

“What do you have to report.” I asked. he looked at the two warriors with him and then back at me. 

“It seems as though there was about 20 rogues there and then their rogue leader. They were all messing around when someone else arrived at the camp. The rogue leader dismissed everyone else so they could chat. It was a vampire.” He said. Everyone looked shocked. It was rare to see vampires in this part of the world. They usually lived over in Italy except for a select few. 

“could you hear what they were meeting about?” I asked them. They all exchanged glances 

“Not specifically. They mentioned something about a special one and using their powers but that’s about all we got. I think they are planning an attack but don’t have enough recruits yet. They have a few men out searching for more they said. Apparently they have been promised a good pack life after.” One of

the warriors said. We all sat there and contemplated this for a few moments. 

“Who could they be looking for?” I murmured, more to myself than anyone. 

“I know.” Eric sald with a grim look on his face. Everyone looked at him. 

“They are looking for Oakley.” He sighed, clenching his hands around the end of the chair. I was instantly enraged by this. No one was taking my mate from me! 

“Why do they want her?” Alpha Simon asked. 

“Because she is exactly like her mother. She has powers. I am guessing you have seen her wolf. She is special. She won’t be able to access her powers until she is marked though. That’s how it worked with her mother. I remember her telling me a while back that rogues attacked this pack looking for her as well. It’s why we chose my birth pack. So we could live a peaceful life without worry.” He said Sadly. 

“I remember those attacks. It was before I was alpha. I remember my dad telling me that we needed to protect her with our life.” Alpha Simon said. Eric nodded. There was silence among us while we all thought about this. 

“Well what are we supposed to do. How can I not mark her? She is my Luna.” i inquired. 

“Well we won’t be expecting you to not mark her. She will just need training as soon as possible for when she can access her powers.” Eric said. 

“I remember mom telling her that one of their friends is a witch and she trained her mother. Can we get her here?” I asked dad. He nodded thoughtfully. 

“You need to talk to your mate alpha mark. the only way we can beat a vampire, or even an army of vampires, is with her powers.” Eric said, looking me in the eye. I’m sure that wasn’t easy for him. He was basically saying that I needed to mark my mate and that is his daughter. 

“I have a vampire friend I can call. He can come and help train everyone on how to handle vampires.” Alpha Simon suggested. 

“Okay, good. That’s a good idea. I don’t want anyone to worry about this immediately. We need to assess the situation. maybe we can meet with the rogue leader when the vampire isn’t there and see about making some kind of deal. Maybe make it better than whatever the vampire is offering him if it’s possible.” I said. I knew that was probably not possible But it was worth a try. 

“Alright. Well we all know what needs to be done. I will speak with Oakley and then dad can you have mom contact her friend and have them meet sometime? all of Oakleys things just came today so she will probably want to spend time after dinner putting everything away. I can use that time to talk to her.” I said. Everyone nodded. After that we all headed to the dining hall to have dinner. We had taken a while so dinner 

d and sat had already started. I looked to where my mate was sitting and saw she had gotten me a plate of food and a drink as well. She was so amazing. I walked over to where she was sitting, kissed her fore down next to her. 

“Is everything okay.” She asked me.

“Yes my angel. There is something we have to discuss in a bit though. I figure after lunch you will want to go put your things away and we can chat then.” I told her. She just nodded, a concerned look on her face. We ate dinner, the occasional chatter with the other pack members. When we finished we said good night to our parents and her grandparents and then headed up to our room so she could unpack her things and we could talk. Once we reached the room and I had closed the door and she turned to face me. 

“Alright, what’s going on?” she asked
