SIXTEEN

We didn't leave for Washington until the next morning, and then we reached the pack a few hours after lunch.

Marcus came out of the Alpha House only moments after we arrived. I couldn't read his expression, but his stance told me he was ready for a fight. Roman and I had spent a few hours in the hotel's gym before leaving that morning, so we weren't itching to punch anyone.

Or at least, I thought we weren't.

We walked up to Marcus's porch, Roman's left arm around my waist. The Alpha opened his mouth to greet us when we made it up the stairs, but before he said anything, Roman's fist was flying at Marcus's face.

Marcus didn't move to stop the punch, but I jumped away.

Roman had mentioned punching him in the face, but I didn’t think he’d actually do it. I underestimated my mate, I guess.

"What the hell, Roman?" I demanded.

"He hurt you. It's my right to break his nose."

"I already did that last time we saw him."

"Well, you aren't me. He would've been waiting for me to retaliate through our entire conversation if I didn't do it now."

I didn’t exactly agree with it, but there was no point in arguing. Roman would protect me however he thought he had to, and I was alright with that for the most part.

"You gave my people back to the Alphas of All." Marcus glared at me, even while he cradled his bleeding nose. Someone I faintly recognized brought him a wad of tissues, and he held it to his face.

"I was dying. An unmated ruby wolf can't hold packs like I was doing." I stated.

"And now?" He looked to Roman, his eyes focusing on the nearly invisible glint of red shadow Roman's cheeks. He'd shaved before we left the hotel—I think because he didn't want anyone to think we were siblings again. But his stubble grew so fast you could already see it.

"She's mine." Roman's arm tugged me closer. "Permanently."

"And we're the Alphas of All." I added, since that was the real question he was trying to ask.

"Here to take my pack back?" Marcus asked, looking a bit suspicious. "Or replace me altogether?"

"Neither. We're here to make sure you're still worthy of being Alpha. We're replacing anyone who doesn't qualify."

His eyebrows lifted.

"You're fixing the system that hurt you." He said, obviously speaking to me.

"We're fixing a broken system so no one else has to suffer." Roman cut in, protecting me from the conversation he thought might hurt me. I was fine to talk about it, but appreciated the gesture anyway. "So, show us your pack."

Marcus led us inside, giving us a tour of the Alpha House—the size of a normal house.

I knew his pack was scattered through the outskirts of a decently large city, and that the wolves would travel to Marcus's place on the edge of the forest when they wanted to shift and run. So visiting all the pack members wouldn't be realistic, as I'd warned Roman, but Marcus could call them all to his house like Christopher had.
