I watched as she tortured and then removed the head off the rogue completely. She had already managed to get more information from him then we had been able to in months from any of the other rogues we had captured. It seemed as though this one was tired of whatever they were doing and was not a fan of vampires. I kind of wished we could have thrown him in the cells and gotten more information but he almost killed a child so I wasn’t going to argue. 

As soon as I felt her aura drop I made my way over to her slowly. She just sat down and stared at me. I ordered the warriors to take care of the body of the rogue before I gave the pack the all clear to go about business like normal. 

Zorro was in awe of his mate. He had only seen her from far away and was enjoying being this close to her. Even if she did have blood all over her jaw. He rubbed himself against her side. she let out a sound like a purr and swatted at his head gently. He nipped at her tail and was about to take off running when I stopped him. 

“We need to check on the child, make up the reports and she needs to get cleaned up. We also need to check on Oakley and the rest of the pack. I know you want to be with your mate Zorro and I want that for you but we need to be an alpha first and she is the Luna now so she had a duty as well.“I told him. He huffed but he knew I was right. He sat down and looked at haven, I knew he was speaking to her, letting her know what I had just told him. She huffed and then stood up. I asked a couple of the warriors to bring us some clothes so we could shift back. once they brought us the clothes they turned around so we could shift back and change. the sound of bones cracking and rearranging could be heard in the silence as we shifted back. We put on our clothes and turned to head to the pack house. we walked silently, hand in hand, not talking about what just happened, both of us processing it. I stopped and turned to her when we reached the front of the pack house. 

“Are you okay?” I asked her. She looked at me for a moment, like she was contemplating something. 

“Yes. I’m okay. Haven was very brutal back there. I was afraid you would think differently of us.” She told me. I pulled her into a hug. 

“I will never think differently of you. And she was very brutal. I think Zorro was turned on secretly.” I chuckled at that last bit. she giggled. 

“We should get inside. We have a few things to tend to.” I said. I grabbed her hand and we walked up the stairs and into the door together. I could hear some sniffling in the kitchen. I guess that’s where my mom had taken the kid. The warriors–mind linked me that the bodies had been taken care of and their security checks showed things were safe for now. I gave the all clear to the rest of the pack and then we headed into the kitchen. My mom was sitting at the table with the kid, giving her cookies and soothing her.

Chapter 37 

Beth was standing at the counter, looking at her phone. I was just about to speak when a couple wolfs flew Into the room and towards the child, the mother crying as she pulled her into her arms. The dad thanking us over and over again. 

After waiting for everyone to calm down i sat in a chair at the table by the child. 

“Why were you at the park?” I asked her gently. 

“I..i..I wanted to show I was brave.” She sniffled quietly. 

“What do you mean?” I asked her. 

“All my friends say that I am a scaredy wolf and I wanted to prove to them I wasn’t.” She told me. 

“Well your friends are wrong. But what you did was very dangerous and you could have lost your life. Imagine how your parents would feel if something had happened to you. Do you know how scared they were not knowing where you were?” I explained to her. She stared for a moment and then turned to her parents. 

“I’m sorry mommy and daddy. I didn’t mean to scare you. I won’t do it again.” She told them. Her mom hugged her and her dad pat her head gently. 

“Please don’t ever do that again sweetie, if you’re having trouble with your friends then you let us know and we will sort it out.” Her mom said to her. She just nodded and then went back to her cookie. I looked up to my mate to see her looking at me with adoration in her eyes. I don’t know what I did but I wanted to know so i could keep doing it. I enjoyed the way she was looking at me. 

“If you guys are okay here we need to go file some reports of the evening events.” I said as I stood up. They nodded and thanked us again. We all left the room to go to the offices. The warriors, my dad, beta and gamma who were all involved were waiting outside the office. I turned to Oakley. 

“You will have to go into the Luna office with my mom. She will show you how to file a report.” I told her. She nodded at me, gave me a kiss and then went with my mom and Beth to the Luna office. The rest of us headed into my office to file paperwork on the incident. Once we were in the room and the door was shut my dad spoke up. 

“Man, haven was brutal back there.” He said. everyone else nodded in agreement. 

“Yea, remind me to never get on her bad side.” I said. I sat in my chair and grabbed the required items to file a report. Once everyone had told their version of what happened and it was filed I dismissed them all. I took a moment to process everything. this situation with the rogues was getting out of hand and the alpha council was not at all helpful. I 

Was stumped. I turned on my computer to send out a mass email to the alphas who did seem like they wanted to help and explained about the rogue camp and everything. I left out the details of Oakleys wolf, they didn’t need to know that yet because I wasn’t sure who I could trust. Once I was done I shut down my computer and sat there for a moment going over everything that had happened that evening. It wasn’t long before I was feeling exhausted. I got up to go find Oakley so we could head to bed.
