About an hour later, | hear Alpha Anders knock on the front door. My dad givesa look and starts wheeling out

back to light up the grill. | roll my eyes and head to the front door.

“Good evening Anders. How are you doing today?”

“Good evening Cara. I'm well, how about you?”

“Doing well, thank you. Please cin. Dad is out back getting the grill fired up.”

He handstonight's dessert, it smells like chocolate cheesecake, yum; and a six -pack of beer, pulling two out

on his way to go see my father.

| put the dessert in the fridge after ensuring that it was indeed cheesecake. Dad is putting baked potatoes on the

grill, so I'm only responsible for vegetables tonight. I've opted for a broccoli and cheese casserole. | figured that

would go nicely on its own, or over the potatoes.

Dad and Anders walk back in and Anders sees my gift basket sitting on the island

in the kitchen.

“What do we have here?” He asks. Looking athe says, “Letguess, this is a gift from the mystery man I've

been hearing so much about.”

“It is.” I reply as he takes a look inside.

He holds up the card and asks, “May I?"

| don’t really want to say yes, but he’s my Alpha and | want his help figuring out who my mystery man is. Also, it

may be helpful when | cclean about the near altercation between Rik and Liam earlier if he understands

how serious my secret admirer really is.

He reads the card and his reaction mirrors my father’s earlier with a low, appreciative whistle. “This guy sounds

serious. Have you figured out who he is yet?”

My dad is watching me, lettingtake the lead. “Not yet. There are spossible contenders, but | haven't

been able to pinpoint exactly who it is.”

“Who are the contenders?”

I give him the list, eliminating Jason and Liam, but leaving Rik in based on my conversation with dad earlier.

“Well, you're a smart girl Cara. I'm sure you'll figure out who it is very soon.” he

“About that, did you happen to hear about what happened today? Maybe you've spoken to Alpha Rik?”

Anders looks atquestioningly, “No, | have been outside the pack territory dealing with rogue attacks in a

neighboring pack all day.” He looks between my father and 1, and something passes between them making

Anders givehist laser focus. “What did | miss?”

| give him the condensed version of what happened today. His thoughtful look becomes concerned when | get to

the part where Rik had to be removed and | had to de-escalate Liam.

“Rik challenged Liam. Over you.” It’s more of a statement than a question.

| feel the weight of what he’s askingthrough the question. ‘My son almost started a war because of you?’ is

the real question.

I gulp, feeling guilty over the situation, even though I didn’t create it. “Well, technically, it was Kai that

challenged Cyran, but yes.”

“Anything else | need to know?”

| look at my father who hasn't taken his eyes off Alpha Anders. “Well, | sort of invited Liam to train withand

dad tomorrow in order to distract him from responding to the challenge.”

| tense up, waiting for Alpha Anders to respond.

He turns slowly to look at my dad. “You mean to tell me, that you are going to train an Alpha from another pack,

but you won’t chelptrain our own warriors?”

My dad shrugs, evidently not concerned at all by the Alpha aura that is pushing out of Anders. He's not happy

and he’s making it known.

“My daughter saved a battle and possibly a war which was started, intentionally or not, by your son. I'd think

you'd be happy that one night of training is all that it cost you.” Again, there is a silent conversation between the

two of them.
