At the center of the room was a table that was long horizontally. On each side were four seats. On one side, Art sat in the middle. On his left was Raegan and next to her was Kebethi who was sitting as support to the second in command. On his right was Silvia, his second in command. On the other side of the table was Remus sitting in the middle. Gwen was to his left with Sam next to her. Keith was to Remus’s right as his second in command. Gwen had been shocked at fist when Raegan entered the room and sat down on Art’s left, the designated seat for omega’s in official clan meetings. “Keep your weakest protected and your strongest on your right,” as the saying goes. It was a tradition that never fizzled out. The small child looked dwarfed in her seat and Art seemed to ignore her completely as he spoke quietly to Silvia who hadn’t stopped staring at Gwen since their eyes met across the room. Gwen could feel Silvia’s eyes like a possessive claim tingling down her spine and held back a shudder. Of course she had conveniently forgotten to return any of Silvia’s calls or texts and of course she would have to run into the woman here of all places. Gwen honestly hadn’t been expecting Silvia to be a McCloud. It had never come up in their few brief interactions and now she was regretting not getting the woman’s full name sooner if only it would have prepared her for this horribly awkward situation. Holding back another shudder, as Silvia’s gaze seemed to intensify with each passing minute, Gwen smiled kindly at Raegan who returned it with a smaller much more subdued one.

A throat cleared, drawing the attention of everyone in the room. Remus continued, “Should we begin, then?”

Art nodded and when Remus gestured for him to begin, Art launched into the mandatory pleasantries.

“I’m Art McCloud, alpha of McCloud Clan, titled the Heavenly Sky Clan. My second is Silvia McCloud and her support is Kebethi McCloud.”

The silence hung between the two alphas, then everyone inadvertently turned to regard Raegan who was still silently sitting with her eyes firmly fixed on the table and her hands in her lap. Remus cleared his throat and nodded in the girls direction. Art looked to his left as if regarding an insect and sneered, “And that is my omega,” Art practically spat the words out as if they left a bad taste in his mouth just to speak them.

“Raegan,” Silvia stated and while the girl looked up in surprise, Silvia’s eyes never left Gwen’s.

Remus nodded, “Right well, I’m Remus Lander, alpha of the Lander Clan, titled Sleeping Forest Clan. My second is Keith Lander and his support is Sam Lander. My omega is Gwen Lander. State your reasons for requisition this meeting.”

Art adjusted in his seat, seeming to puff out his chest as he met Remus’s gaze head on. “We wish to discuss land boarders.”
