My Secret, My Bully, My Mates.
Chapter 0625

***"I will try to find him, but he can't be our whole plan. There is too much going on here. From where we are it's a whole ecosystem. We need to get an idea of what kind of supplies they have and how long they can outlast us. I think they were hoping for a better showing from Brecc and his goons, but we still don't know if they are all working together or not. Brecc is just a greedy asshole, he may be on his own plan."***

***"Bitty, Babe. You need to keep this link open and let us know what you are seeing and what you are doing at all times. We can be there in minutes if needed."***

***"I will keep the link open, we always do, but you all cannot come running until we ask for back up. And before anyone protests look at Osiston and Nikolas. They can vouch for us. This is how we do this. We are on a mission like any other mission right now, this is what we do, this is my team, it's exactly what we have trained for. I can guarantee that Wyatt and Nathaniel are doing their jobs like any other mission. Go find them and they can help you wrap your minds around us being out here working and probably give you four different visuals too."*** This is as calm as I can be for them. I don't want to fight or start a fight, but they can't just come running after us and leave the rest of our warriors stranded, especially if the plan was to get me here and separated. They are targets, all of them, but my mates specifically.

I leave the conversation there. We need intel, not discussions. I know that Nik and Osiston will handle them now that everyone has been called out. As promised I don't shut down their link, but I do shut out their comments, wish is mostly just grumbling and groaning about safety and mate trust and other bullsh*t.

***"So far, only three big buildings that we can see from here. There is still no scent that we can track. We need to decide if we should test if being inside the treeline changes that."*** Lil starts our observations ***"Still tracking about four hundred on the ground, but they don't seem to be in any active state, just going about general business." Jena adds on.

***"We need to figure out what each building is for. One for sleeping, one for eating and probably some type of office and one for supplies, but we need to be sure since they are heavy on the magic use too."*** I add.

***"Since their wolves are disposable, we can probably assume there isn't much in the way of a healing space. Maybe we can use that against them. Find a way to attack the masses here and they won't be able to recover."*** Sierra continues our verbal note taking.

We continue to stay in the treeline and move toward where the majority of the wolves are. I find it odd that they are all in wolf form here. There is not a single human form around. The rest of the girls agree with

me.

***"These buildings give nothing away. They are all big metal rectangles. No windows, flat roofs, no garage doors that we can see, so they might not have any vehicles here either."*** Jena says as we continue to belly crawl forward.

Once we get close enough we can

see what they are doing a little better. They are walking around, but in more of a patrol fashion than what we thought. The buildings make a U' shape with two parallel and one closing off an end. They are at the open end moving around what can only be another

fire-pit-magic-link-control thing. F*ck my life. I don't want to deal with another one of these. I brought the girls attention to what I was seeing.

It's like they are just pacing around it aimlessly. No rhyme or reason. I just don't understand. We move closer. I can't sense any magic from here, but I can smell the wolves now L was right, the scent masking was just around the border in the trees. Thick enough to make them feel safe, they just weren't counting on us to be nosey and follow through with our search.

***"Stay here, I want to see how close I can get and we are not testing your camouflage abilities with this many opponents. Don't argue."*** I hiss at Lil, she knows I am right and wants to protest because I'm sure everything in her big Gamma heart is telling her to go before me. It's not happening.

Before she, or anyone else, can say anything, I start crawling forward more slowly than I have ever moved

in my life. I know the camo only works when I am still. Or, at least, that's when we have noticed it

working the best. I get about twenty feet from the outside line of wolves. They are pacing in a circle around a platform that is three shallow steps above the ground. It's almost like they are in prayer or meditation. There is a small gap and I take my chance to scurry through towards the center and then plant myself at the bottom step and take a deep breath.

There is a light gray wolf laying on the platform facing the fire. His head is moving up and down and in circles. It doesn't seem to be a pattern, but there is a rhythm to the movement. His eyes are closed and he seems to be the only one solely focused on the fire. Based on his size, this must be the Rogue King or someone high up on the leader rung.

He's not as big as my guys but about the same size as my brother with muscles he clearly uses. His fur has a matted quality to it, not unkempt, but like he lives outside, in this form most of the time.

"So good of you to finally join us. I was hoping you would make your way home sooner rather than later."

Where the hell did that voice come from? It wasn't the wolf at the platform, he hasn't moved a muscle.

"You are just as beautiful as my son described, I can't wait to congratulate him on a fine choice in a mate." I stay put, I can hear the voice like I would hear anyone in their human form, but there are no humans here. "Oh, I'm sorry. Let me introduce myself. My name is Vincent, I am Micheals' father and the true Alpha King."
