Chapter 77


    A mothers worry.


    (Momma Beth)


    So maybe I haven’t been filled with the best ideas ofte but when your family is being pulled apart it’s


    a mothers job to keep it glued together. My son needs my help but he will never actually ask for it, his


    father raised him to be a strong Alpha but strong Alphas don’t ask for help for mere females. I don’t


    think for a second that Fraction will suffer through this alone but there will be a reason he hasn’t


    thought to tell me what’s going on.


    Everything I have learned is from pressing my ear against doors or listening to the arguments rise


    through the house. I’ve picked up bits and pieces. I’ve learned enough to know this Faye female has


    her ws. in Fraction but he doesn’t seem to like it. That doesn’t scream mate to me and yet he can’t


    seem to deny her, if she issues this challenge there will be nothing any of us can do. Anna will have to


    leave the Pack until the day Fave dies or is banished.


    Not having the answers on how to help I figured I woulde and ask. for help, so under the guise of


    wanting someone alone time I’vee to the Elders. If anyone has any idea what is going on and how


    this. female is affecting Fractions emotions it will be them. They keep records from when the Packs first


    controlling force within all of our Packs. They are trusted to guide us when we cannot do it ourselves.


    I’ve been here for two weeks and I have learned nothing so far, each Elder I speak to seems to tell me


    the same thing. It’s not possible, when an Omega mates it’s for life and their wolf automatically picks


    the strongest wolf’ around.


    Sitting in the library I sigh as I close the massive book I’ve been


    reading, this one has been more of the same. Omega’s mate for life, they have one fated mate…


    honestly if I could punch whoever wrote these books I would.


    “Beth?” I hear a soft male voice speak, looking around I see Elder Thomas standing next to a stack of


    books.


    “It happened?” I ask him just as quietly.


    “It did. From what I understand when the connection was broken they both passed out. They will be out


    for many hours as their wolvese to terms with the broken bond.” I sigh and put my head on the


    table.


    “My grandson?” I ask the wooden surface below my face.


    “I believe he has been left in the care of his father, it would make sense. An Omega out in the world is


    bad enough, never mind adding a toddler into the mix.” I have to say I agree with him on that one.


    “I should head home then, he will need my help.” I tell Elder Thomas.


    “Beth there is something you should know, the others have had a meeting and we have decided you

    need to know. It could be nothing but it could also exin a lot.” I look at him in confusion, he’s been


    hiding stuff from me.


    “Why am I only hearing of this now?” I ask him.


    “We did not think it was useful information and now we know it might. be,” he holds out a small book to


    me. “Some traditions have been forgotten over time, some have been forced from us out of


    preservation.”


    Once I have taken the book from him he quickly turns around and. leaves the library. Looking at the


    small book in my hands I notice there. is no title of author on the front of it. There is an embossed wolf


    O

    surrounded by seven stars and one crescent moon, there is a slight


    shine to the book and when I title it against the light the wolf seems to howl at the moon symbol. Pulling


    the little tablemp closer I open the- book to the first page and settle in for a long night, the print is tiny


    like someone wanted to squeeze as much information as possible on one


    page.


    I don’t care if I have to read every word ten times over, if it will help my family I will soak up every piece


    of knowledge I can from this book and any other they throw at me. Feeling my phone vibrate in my


    pocket. I pull it out and look at the name of who is calling.


    “James?” I ask upon answering the phone.


    “Beth. The challenge has happened.” James tells me as I hear a door closing. he must be locking


    himself into the office, “Anna has gone.”


    “I will be home soon, I just have some things to finish up here.” Picking the book back up and looking at


    thest sentence I just read.


    ‘Once there were many types of shifters in the world, some who could bend the very will of others to


    their wimps and needs.”


    Disconnecting from the call I don’t listen for James’ answer, I be engrossed in the book as I learn


    more about shifter history than I ever thought possible. By chapter two I am up and out of my chair and


    heading back to my room to pack my bag. If this book is right my son needs me and things are about to


    get much worse for him and Anna. Once I have packed my bag and have it slung over my shoulder I


    pick up the book and my phone and dial Alpha Darryl, Anna is going to need help and he will know how


    to get it to her.


    “Beth?” Darryl asks after the third ring.


    “Darryl, I need your help. Anna is in danger.” I tell him as I hurry down the stairs and head for the front


    door, “I’m on my way home but

    this can’t wait.”


    “Tell me.” He says without hesitation.
