Chapter 15

Emma had only been back in her own cabin for a few minutes, after saying that quick goodbye to Elam and Galen, before someone knocked on her door.

She opened her door wide, to see Kate standing on her porch, with a bottle of wine and two wine glasses, asking somewhat sheepishly if she could come in.

"Of course you can come in," Emma exclaimed. "Wait, I was talking to the wine. You, on the other hand..."

"I know, I know. I've been M.I.A. I've been trying to be a good daughter-in-law, but damn, that Ziva is needy. Then I feel like a major bitch for thinking that, I mean her mate just died, after all. And she has no friends to speak of, really."

"Hmm, you don't say. I can't imagine why."

Kate just laughed and rolled her eyes, and proceeded to open the wine bottle and pour a very generous amount into each glass, handing one to Emma before taking quite a large swig from her own.

"I wanted you to hear it from me, first." Kate choked the words out, barely swallowing her wine before starting to speak. "Can we sit?"

"Of course. Hear what from you first?"

Emma led Kate to the couch, tucked her legs underneath herself, and settled in to talk, like old times.

"Galen is asking Elam now, but it's going to happen. With or without Elam's blessing."

"Shit. What is?"

"Galen is leaving. He said he has much respect for Elam, but he can't be a Beta wolf. He waited until Thomas's passing because he didn't want to upset him, but he won't be second in command."

"So he's just going to leave? Be a lone wolf? It's his right, I guess, but..."

"I'm going with him, of course. As his mate should. So is Ziva. And some of the others."

"But..."

"That part is happening, regardless. What Galen wants to talk to Elam about though, is keeping it civil. Galen said he will take us far away, if needed, but he wants to stay close, to take over the abandoned area adjoining this pack's property line."

"That wasn't abandoned. That pack was wiped out by humans."

"That was a long time ago. And it is where Ziva used to belong."

"This town ain't big enough for the both of 'em?" Emma teased.

"This pack is already divided. I see it and I'm still new around here." Kate smiled at Emma's joke, but pressed on, determined to speak.

"It's because we came here, isn't it? Because I came here." Emma asked, sadly.

"I don't know. If we weren't here the challenge would have still happened. Elam probably still would have won."

"Or he wouldn't have tried so hard. Maybe if I wasn't here he wouldn't have, I don't know...tried to show off? He would have just gone through the motions?"

"From what Thomas said during the challenge, that everyone gives their all when the wolf form takes over, it probably would have happened anyway."

"But I make it worse, don't I? For Ziva, at least. She has something against my mother, and therefore, me as well.
