Chapter 0522

Patrick looks at me, giving me his best stern Alpha face. “I need you to stay calm, and not go off like are 

prone to do.” Just him saying this has my blood pressure rising. 

“Is this about Lily?” 

“Yes. I received a call today from Alpha Mahli.” 

The snarl erupts before I can hold it back. Patrick stops, waiting for me to get myself under control. 

“Apparently, Aaron Raines invited him to come here for a visit this weekend. Thankfully, Alpha Mahli did what any Alpha would do when visiting the territory of another Alpha, he called to make sure that there was no issue on my end.” 

“You told him no, of course.” I say through gritted teeth. 

“I have no reason to keep Alpha Mahli from visiting my pack members.” I start to stand, nearly losing my 

shit at this statement. 

Patrick holds his hands up, wanting me to calm down. I sit back down, gripping the edges of the chair. I’m holding on so hard that I can hear the wood cracking under the force of my grip. 

I see Patrick sigh, as Anders jumps in. “What about Lily? You know it’s a risk to have Alpha Mahli here. We already know he wants her, and that Aaron is trying to sell his daughter to pay his debts. This can’t be a coincidence. Aaron finds out his daughter is a Guardian and less than a week later he invites Alpha Mahli to come visit?” 

“Agreed.” Patrick says, but his eyes never leave mine. “Which is why I’ve made plans for you to visit an off–the–grid pack in Maine this weekend. You, Clint, Calista and Lily will all fly to Maine for an extended weekend. You leave first thing in the morning. I’ve already spoken to the Alpha of the pack, and they have an area near the coast they use for other packs who want to come for vacation. You’ll be staying in a vacation home in a human area, but I’ve already set up hiking trips, white water rafting and places for you to get what is arguably the best lobster in the world.” 

My grip relaxes and I sit back, taking in a deep breath as Donovan settles and sits down in my head. I know my eyes must be back to their regular green when Patrick nods at me. 

“I was serious when I said I would treat her like my own daughter, Clint. I won’t allow anyone to hurt her, 

not even her father.” 

I nod. I know this, but my tendency to act before thinking is only worse when I’m concerned with Lily’s safety. “Thank you, Patrick. What time do we leave, and will you be telling the girls what and why we are 

leaving?” 

He nods at Calvin and I see Calvin’s eyes go unfocused.

“Alpha Mahli is due to arrive tomorrow morning. Your flight is leaving the airport at 6am, making sure you are long gone before he gets here. He is scheduled to leave Sunday evening, but just in case, your flight does not return until Monday afternoon. If something changes, I will call you and delay your return. I don’t have to tell you to keep Lily away from other packs. I chose the Boothbay Pack because they are used to hosting tourists and have a large human population around them. It should be fairly easy for you 

to stay under the radar.” 

As he finishes, there is a knock at the door. Calvin opens it and Lily and Calista come in. Lily stops as 

she steps in and sees us. I stand, motioning for her to take my seat. “Come sit, Lily bud.” 

I notice Anders is doing the same for Calista. Lily sits and I stand behind her, putting my hands on her 

shoulders. 

Patrick looks at Lily. “I want you to know, first, that everything is going to be okay. But I want to be completely honest with you, so you understand what’s going on.” 

Lily just nods and I can hear her heart rate picking up, her shoulders have gone tense under my hands, and I begin to knead them gently. 

“Your father has invited Alpha Mahli to come visit him this weekend.” Lily gasps, her hands going to her mouth. She looks at me and I can see the fear in her eyes. 

“Let him finish Lily bud.” I tell her softly. 

She turns back around. “I’m sending you, Clint, Anders and Calista on a weekend vacation to Maine, where you are set to have a fun weekend. Your flight leaves tomorrow morning at 6am, and I’ve already spoken to both of your teachers and your parents Calista.” He turns looking at Calista. 

She nods reaching out to take Lily’s hand. “I won’t take any chances with you, and I’ve given Anders and Clint the rundown of what will be happening. You two are to stay with them at all times. The place I’m sending you is mostly human, but there will be other wolves in the area, so you’ll need to be careful Lily.” 

She nods. “Do you have any questions?” He asks them. 

When neither of them does, he tells them to go pack. “You have an early day tomorrow. I’m available if you need to speak to me, or if you have any concerns or questions.” 

Lily stands, and I take her hand, leading her from the room.

Well, Aaron can’t tell Alpha Mahli his daughter is a Guardian, but I guess he was hoping he’d see her and realize it on his own thank goodness for Alpha Patrick!
