I watched as we were driving away to go park 67

I was getting the same question, Why mated guards, Why mated guards? Why mated guards indeed, because when you
first find your mate the bond can be overwhelming, and a newly mated guard will not have their head on straight they
will want to mark and mate with his or her mate instead of making sure the pack is secure against rouge attacks. I have
seen it happen way to many times, which is why the royal decree states mated guards to accompany those that are
attending the ball. But no one has declined the invitation so we will be at full capacity for the ball. That can be both a
blessing, and a curse at the same time. There is the best chance for many mates but at the same time more chances for
trouble, as well. I have also been adding to the food list with every new call to ensure we have enough to go around. Per my calculations that will be 168 extra guards 12 from each pack and we invited 14 packs, plus 336 unmated wolves, again
12 each male and female, from 14 packs, and then the unmated ranked wolves from each pack which I have to sit down
and count out from my notes but just ruffly we will have an extra 540 people here. So that is a lot of extra food to feed
everyone, the accounts are going to take a hit this year.
DRAKE: Friday morning after breakfast the first of our guest arrive. Adrian, Kina, Rex, with their 36 pack members. The
family greeted them on the front of the pack house steps. “Adrian, Kina, good to see you again, Rex.” I shake hands with
them, and then they all give the kids hugs. “Mitchell will take the guards and get them settled. And Marie will show the
others to their rooms.” I tell them. “Keska will show you three to your rooms. I tell them. The rest of the morning and
early afternoon went the same way, I had the kids taking turns showing the Alphas, Lunas, and higher ranks to their
rooms. While Mitchell delt with the guards and Marie one of our omegas show the rest to their rooms. Tonight, will be
the first of the dressier parties as the meet and greet. And Wednesday will be the second as that is actually the twins’
birthday. The last to arrive were the Royals, I’m not going to lie, it was a bit intimidating having them here, but they were
very respectful when meeting the family. I just hope that all goes well, and Jessie behaves, so we don’t have any major or
embarrassing issues.
JESSIE: I only get one shot at getting rid of Kes. And I have to make it count. I have Kirk and Rodney on the roster for
guard duty for the meet and greet for tonight, I know she will try to put herself in the kitchen to help so it should be a bit
easier to grab her from there as she is coming and going, setting food out. I got Tara to steal a bottle of chloroform from
the clinic for the guys to have. After tonight I won’t have to see her or put up with her the ugly bitch.
KESKA: After greeting all the guests, I fell a bit antsy again, (Corla, what’s going on?) I ask her. (Don’t know, maybe all the
extra energy and excitement around the Ball.) she says. (I want Adrian, Kina, and Rex to meet you.) I tell her. (And Camron
to if he wants.) I tell her. (Anyone you want immune?) She asks me. (Adrian, I would also like Kina to be, but we can’t she
is pregnant. I guess the other two would be up to them.) I tell her. (Do you know where they put Alpha Camron?) she
asked (I am not 100% sure but I can find out easily enough.) I tell her. (Well let’s get this show on the road.) she tells me. I
link Mackie. *“You busy?” “No, why?” “Meet me at Nana’s in about 10 minutes, if all goes well I am going to shift and
show Corla to Adrian, Kina, Rex, and Camron if he wants to see her.” “You are taking a risk showing her to so many
people.” “I know, but I believe I can trust them, besides father had her phase me in front of the beta, and I don’t know
that he will actually keep his mouth shut.” “I’ll be there.”* I open a link to Liam. *“I am going to go to Nana’s in about 10
minutes want to join me?” “Sure, I’m in.”* I open a link to Nana. *“Nana, please don’t get upset with me but I want to
show Corla to Adrian, Kina, Rex, and Alpha Camron if he is open to it. But we have to do it at your house.” “How could I
be upset with you sweet child, bring them here when you are ready.” “In 10 minutes?” “That is fine.” “Thank you, Nana
love you.” “Love you too.”* I close the link and call Adrian. His phone rings a couple of times and he picks up. “Hey
Keska, what’s up?” “I talked to Nana and if can get Rex and Kina and meet me there in about 10 minutes I will show you what we talked about earlier on the phone.” I tell him. “I will make sure we are there.” He tells me and we hang up. I then
link Marie; she has the list of all the rooms where all the Alphas are staying. “Marie, can you please tell me what room
Alpha Camron is in.” “He is in one of the guest suites on the second floor by your fathers office.” “Thank you.” I close the
link, and head to his room. I knock on his door.
CAMRON: I hear a knock on my door, it’s before lunch, and I didn’t order any service. “Who is it.” I call out. “Keska.”
Comes the answer. I open the door to see her standing there in a pretty sundress that complements her hair color. “Hello,
come in, what can I do for you?” “I would like to share a secret with you, but not here, I can’t say much, but if you are
interested please come to Nana’s with me.” She says. “May I bring Chase? He loves your Nana.” “Do you trust him to
keep his mouth shut? I don’t mean to be harsh but very few people are privy to what you will learn, and the fewer the
better as of now, when the time is right more will know but right now the number is small.” She tells me. “Chase” I call
out to him “Yes Alpha.” “I need you to come with me, and I also need you to keep what you see and hear to yourself, can
you do that without me having to Alpha command you?” I asked him. “Yes Alpha.” I turn back to Keska. “You have your
answer.” I said, “I take it that you are interested in this, then?” “Yes Keska I am.” “Thank you, please come with me then.” I
turn to Chase, “We are going to your favorite person’s home. So, let’s go.” I tell him. He just smiles like a kid that was
told he gets his favorite toy. We both follow her out and down to the front of the house, we walk across the paved drive
and over to the copes of trees and follow a path that brings right to Miss Lilly’s backyard.
KESKA: I lead Alpha Camron and his guard Chase to Nana’s house. “Nana, I’m here.” I call out as we enter the back yard. I
see Mackie, Nana, Liam, Adrian, Kina, and Rex all come from inside the house, followed by Stephen. “Dear, I had Stephen
put up a divider over on the side of the house for you to change behind.” Nana says. “Thank you Nana.” I say and head
to the side of the house,
