Chapter 59 Past And Present
Amarah
At least now I know for sure he kept his leadership at armlength on purpose, he believed that as an Alpha you are a dictator and he had hoped Theseus would turn out just like him. Thank the Goddess my Mate has a brain of his own and he knows how to use it.
Theseus and I Had decided to give Umayza some time and started out with explaining everything we have planned so far. “I am not moving into that new Pack–house, I have no intention on moving to the Alpha floor here.” Damon growls as I bring up the new Pack–house.
“Damon, there won’t be an Alpha floor in the new Pack–house. The top floor will be for the entire leadership and last time I checked you were no longer an Alpha.” I state as I look at him. He growls again as he asks where he is supposed to live.
“Well, you and your Mate can chose to take a cottage or you can take a family–room on the second or third floor of the new Pack–house or the Hospital.” I answer and Apollo’s Father asks me which Hospital I am talking about, “We will remodel the old Pack–house of Dark Mountain Pack to a Hospital, the plans will be available for all to see by tomorrow.
But just to make it clear only the second and third floor of the Hospital be for Pack–members that want to stay there, everyone else is more than welcome in the new Pack–house or to request a cottage.” I explain and again Damon is blowing up.
Dad looks strangely at me as I let Damon rant and rave, but I don’t pay attention to it and finally he settles back into his chair. Theseus explains the changes to the training schedule and to the border patrols and again Damon is ranting and raving, but this time Dad has had enough.
“Sit the fuck down, Damon. Or I will put you in your place.” Dad roars and I just smile as Damon quickly sits down. Theseus continues to explain everything and I see Damon’s former Beta and Gamma staring at Theseus, they really are at a loss here.
The moment Theseus is done I address both males, I see that this is all somewhat confusing to the two of you, I understand that it doesn’t make sense to either of you why we would rely on our leadership and I know it is something neither one of you was ever taught.
A Pack is as strong as it’s leadership, in order for us to be able to do our jobs correctly we need to be able to rely on our Beta and Gamma. A Beta’s job is to support his or her Alpha and to help him or her make decisions that will benefit the Pack, not just the Alpha.
My Beta and Gamma know exactly how our Pack is doing financially and physically and so do my Deltas. If for whatever reason I am unable to run my Pack my Beta can take over without any problems and she will have my Gamma and Deltas to help her I explain and I see both of them nodding their heads.
“Thank you, Alpha Amarah. I appreciate the explanation, but why do you both need to keep your leadership?” Ajax’s Father asks and I glance at Ajax who just shrugs his shoulders. “Not only because I trust them with my live or that I know they will have this Pack’s best interest at heart, but also because they are mated to Theseus‘ leadership.” I reply.
He turns around in his seat to look at Ajax and I see him smile as he sees lone on his lap, “Still not

happy with your Mother, Son?” He asks teasingly before he congratulates both of them and he asks me if it wouldn’t be better to just use my own leadership!
“We could do that, but than we have to make sure they have Pups real soon so they can become stay at home Dads.” I say and Theseus looks at me with a smirk on his face, “What?” I ask him. “You can already become a stay at home Dad, after all we already have a Pup to look after.” I say and he kisses me to shut me up.
We have been here for an hour when there is a knock on the door and Umayza walks in with her Mates right behind her, “My apologies, Alphas. I think you all would like to know what I have discovered.” She says as she looks at Damon and I have a feeling he might need some protection from Theseus.
‘My Mates will make sure you walk out of here in one piece and breathing, but other than that I will make no promises about your well–being.” She says as she looks at Damon. “Your Mate is already under surveillance and will be tossed into the dungeons if Alpha Theseus requests it.”
“Alphas, you asked me to find out what Damon has been up to and I can tell you it is not a very pretty picture. First of all, Joseph isn’t Damien’s Son but his. She says as she points at Damon. “I will not tell you what I saw in regards to how he was conceived, just know that Damien has known even before Joseph was born.
Damien can’t reproduce and Penelope asked Damon to give her a Pup, which we all know he did. Damien also knew that your Father only gave you the position of Alpha to rebuild the Pack’s finances, other than that he never wanted you in that position and it has to do with the fact that you are nothing like your Father.” She says and she nods at her Mates.
Both of them move closer to Damon and I ask myself what could be worse than what she has already told us, “This piece of information will cause a lot of turmoil in this room and I asked the rest of the Squad to join us, my Mates just want to make sure that the Pups and I will be safe.” She says as the other three Lycans step into the room..
Umayza walks towards the window with the biggest Lycan behind her, “Alpha Theseus, what I am about to say will affect you the most and I hope Alpha Amarah will be able to keep you calm, but those two Lycans are here to make sure you don’t kill anyone.” She says as she is looking out the window.
“Damon really didn’t want you as the Alpha and he really hated White Crescent Pack, he hoped to be able to destroy you and White Crescent Pack with one action. Unfortunately for him you didn’t respond the way he had hoped and the rest of his plan failed as well, even though I have no answer as to why.
Damon watched White Crescent patrol to find a flaw and when he found it he paid some Rogues to kill your first Mate.” I hear Linus roar and I jump onto his lap, wrapping my arms around him as I whisper in his ear, “I am right here.” It is a struggle to calm him down, but I know of a way to succeed.
“Tone, make sure no one else can see what I am going to do. don’t care about the Lycans, but I don’t want the rest to see.” Hink her and she asks Evander and Conri to move Damon to the back of the room before she calls everyone else over to look at the plans for the Pack–house and Hospital.
Linus is still trying to push out of the chair, but the two Lycans keep him in place and I start grinding my hips. Both males look in the other direction and feel a change in Linus‘ breathing as I suck on my mark, making him put all of his focus on me.
“Are smu nkou Tinue?” I sek him and it takes a moment before he reconds “Vec Little One Thank van for

getting my mind of him, I didn’t realize I had such a naughty Mate.” He says with a chuckle. I can tell he still wants to make Damon pay, but at least he has calmed down enough for the Lycans to let him go.
“Umayza, is there anything else I need to know?” I hear Theseus ask and he actually laughs when she says that Damon had planned on leaking the Pack’s weak spots to Alphas that didn’t want Theseus as Alpha of Dark Mountain Pack, “Too bad I already asked Eos to mess with his phone.” He says.
“Your Mother probably knows everything. I asked Simon to keep a close eye on her. She knows that Joseph is Damon’s Son, they even planned on getting rid of you and Damien so they could raise Joseph to lead the Pack the way they want him to.” She says.
“Good thing our Son doesn’t want to become an Alpha, he wants to become a Warrior and I believe he will be a damn good Warrior one day.” I say as I look at Damon. He is staring daggers at me and Umayza, but neither one of us gives a damn.
“Umayza, thank you for helping us with this and I am sorry for everything you had to see.” I say as her Mates escort Damon out of my office and I know I don’t have to tell them where the dungeons are. after all they grew up here. Theseus is still holding onto me and I rest my head on his shoulder as I wrap my arms around his waist.
We just sit there in silence as the others talk about the new Pack–house, pointing out things on the plans lone made and her Father in law tells her he is proud of her. Joseph crawls onto my lap and snuggles into our arms, not saying a word as he looks at the current and former leaders of our Pack.
We still have a lot of work ahead of us, but I know we will get to where we need to be and with my Mate and my Son by my side I am ready to face any challenge life throws at me.
