(Fraction)
Sighing I flip to the next page of theint form, I used to get maybe one or two of these a month
and now I have several per day. It’s a system I put in ce when I first became Alpha, people are more
likely to tell you how they feel if they aren’t speaking directly to a authoritative figure. In the past I would
try to find a way to resolve theint but these days I’m not sure what to do. For the first time since
bing Alpha, I feel lost.
‘We need to get rid of this bitc h.’ Leo tells me as I rub my eyes.
an
‘No sh it, what tipped you off? Theseints or waking up with her on my coc k?” I ask him as I pull
a freshint form towards me.
‘I still can’t believe you let that happen. I can still feel her hands in my fur.’ I swear I can feel him
shaking with revulsion, ‘Winter won’t talk
to me.”
“Has she spoken to you at all?’ Leo is the only connection I have to Anna now, our own connection
broke the second I rejected her.
‘No, she’s being moody and I me you for that.’ I roll my eyes, of course he mes me, ‘and she told
Anna we were with Faye.”
‘It wasn’t like that!’ Her da mn wolf is whispering about things she doesn’t understand.
‘She doesn’t know that, between the dream and then waking up with Faye…it is easily confused.’ Leo
tells me, he’s trying to defend his mate which I understand but at the end of the day he’s causing more

My office door opening draws me out of my conversation with Leo, which is probably a good thing
given the anger rising in me. Thankfully it is James that walks into the office and not Faye, he’s still in
his pyjama bottoms but at least he’s managed to put a t-shirt on this time.
“Long night.” he tells me while putting a cup of coffee in front of me, the smell of dark Colombian roast
fills my nose and I reach for it instantly.
“I bet mine was longer.” I tell him as I take a sip of my coffee.
“How did she get in? I checked the house after and all the doors were locked.” James tells me. I can
see this is annoying him. As Beta he wants to know how she got in so he can ensure it doesn’t happen
again.
“I don’t know, she must have been in the room when I went to bed but I didn’t even scent her.”
Admittedly I was distracted by Anna’s scent on the bed sheets but I still would have known she was
there.
“I’ve never heard of a way of masking your smell.” I nod at him in agreement, I’ve not heard of a way of
masking your scent either.
“Want to help me with theseints?” I ask him while waving my hand over my desk.
“Let me guess, all about Faye?” I tilt my head to the side, as if he had
to ask.
Just as I’m about to pass a form to James, the door to the office ms open, I look up to see Eliza red
faced and out of breath.
“Thomas!” She gasps out, I’m up and out of my office before she takes her next breath. Reaching out
to my link I pull back the wall I have in
17.75%
ce and I’m assaulted by noise.
‘Get him to medical.’
‘Someone tell the Alpha.’
‘Where’s the Doctor?’
All the voices blend together. I can’t pick out any one voice from all the ones swirling around in my
head. Leaving the Packhouse I run towards the park as I know thats where Eliza took Thomas this
morning. As I get closer to the park I see Leon standing there, he’s covered in blood, it’s all over his
arms and b*dy.
“What happened?” I demand as I get closer, I can hear Leo bleeding into my voice.
“There was a car..” he starts waving wildly behind him, “it just came out of nowhere…” I’ve never seen
Leon panic before but right now he’s shaking with the fear rolling off him.
“Where is he. Leon? Where is Thomas?” I shake him again and his head bobs around as if separate
from his b*dy.
“Patrick…medical centre.” As soon as he stops speaking I drop him and start running. I ignore
everyone I see. Some are shouting about Thomas and some are asking about the blood that has
transferred to me from Leon’s clothes.
As I round the corner I see Patrick standing outside of it ringing his hands through his hair, his clothes
are just as covered in blood as Leon’s.
“Rick?” I shout as I run closer, his head spins to me and jogs to meet me halfway. “What happened?”
“Lizzie and Thomas were ying with the football, a car came racing down the street. It mounted the
curb and over Thomas before I could even move. It was going at some hellish speed.” He exins it all
to me as we walk towards the medical centre, I stop and look at him.
“Is he..?” I can’t get the word out I just know it can’t be good given all the blood on Leon and Rick.
“He’s in surgery with Doctor Lee. I don’t know much more than that,” I nod at him, he’s alive at least for
now.
“I need you to call Anna, get her here.” I tell him as I pull the medical centre’s door open. I’m instantly
assaulted with medical smells and the sound of people shouting orders.
“Faye won’t like that, she’s been sent away.” Rick says running a blo ody hand threw his hair.
“I don’t care what that bit ch likes, our son is hurt and she needs to be here. Get her here.” I say
between clenched teeth, “and take a shower, you’re a mess.” I leave him there on the steps of the
medical centre, he’s staring at his bloo dy hands like they aren’t his own.
I walk straight past the nurses station andpletely ignore the young woman behind the desk, she
calls out for me but I just want to get to my son. I follow the signs to the surgical area but once I stand
outside of the surgical doors I just stare at them. I want nothing more than to barge in there and find out
what’s going on but I don’t want to startle Doctor Lee while he has his hands inside of my son. Forcing
myself to take a seat in one of the blue chairs along the wall I just sit and stare at the doors and will
them to open.
I’m not sure how long I sit there when James and Patricke along the hall and sit on either side of
me.
“Anna is on her way, I just told her it’s about Thomas but not what

happened.” I nod my head at him.
“That’s good, I don’t want her driving and worrying.” I say in a daze, my eyes haven’t left the doors
where Thomas is currently with Doctor Lee. “Any news on the car?”
“Mrs Jacob, she says she lost control of the car. The old bat shouldn’t even be driving.” James tells me.
“So it was an ident?” I ask them both, “f uck!” I stand from the chair and m my fist in the wall
behind me. I was hoping I could punish someone for hurting my son but how can I punish a tiny old
“Alpha Fraction?” I hear from behind me. I spin around to see Doctor Lee in full scrubs and wiping his
hands with a clean rag.
“How is he?” I ask him quickly.
“He’s going to be fine. The car hit his right side, he has a dislocated hip and a broken leg but otherwise
it’s just bumps and bruises. It could have been much worse.” Doctor Lee says in a calling voice. “the
leg break is going to take some time to heal. The tibia came up and punctured his skin,” at least that
exins the blood.
“But he’s going to be ok?” I ask him again, needing reassurance.
“Give me a bit of time to get him cleaned up and then you can see him.” He reaches over and
squeezes my shoulder and smiles at me before going back through the doors.
Walking back over to the blue chairs I sit down and wait, my entire b*dy is screaming at me to storm
into the room and demand I see him. I don’t know anything medical so if I storm in there at the wrong
time I could do some serious damage to my son. So I will sit here and wait, my knee starts to bounce
the longer I sit and wait.

O
“Anna is here.” James whispers from next to me.
“Can you go and meet her, I don’t want to leave him.” I ask James, he just stands up and goes to meet
her at the Packnd boundary. Anna can’te onto Packnd without an escort anymore and I just
don’t want to leave Thomas alone right now, James will get her here safely.
