StarNovelChapter 0429
The week after the mate gathering, we continue our crazy work schedule but also prepare to have King Ailduin
and Prince Aolis in our pack for the next training session. There are sadjustment issues that either | or Grace
have addressed. Spack members didn’t think we were serious about punishing them for being verbally
aggressive to other pack members. It’s a good thing a couple of the cells had been cleaned out. It gavea
chance to give those individuals a night to think about their choices and whether or not they want to continue in
this pack.
Grace had pulled sof the new pack members in to assist with the cleaning and restocking of the bunkers
and safe rooms. Now that we have more members and many are omegas that would not be required to fight in a
battle, we will need as much space as this pack has available in the
event of another hunter attack.
Liam and Rik talked to different supernatural beings and everyone has heard the rumblings of the
hunters taking supernaturals either to kill or experiment on. Anders is heading a group who is looking to see if
any of the hunter compounds can be found. We were hoping after the tournament and the strength shown by the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGuardians that they would retreat and back off, but it seems as
though they may have turned their attention to other supernaturals.
The sprites have been diligent in monitoring the forest. Now that our pack has expanded, their
watch is also increasing. It helps that a couple have mated in the other two packs, so expanding
their little community to include our new land as well as Rik’s and Liam's pack was not a problem
for them.
Grace has planned a special meal for Ailduin and Aolis when they arrive. The elves, like the
sprites are vegetarian. While they do not condemn us for being meat eaters, they feel that all like is sacred,
especially the life in the forest. Therefore, they choose not to eat the animals of the
forest. We have made an effort to not have any meals with deer or rabbits while they are here.
On the day of their arrival, Rik, Cara, Liam and Angel arrive at lunch time. Ailduin and Aolis are scheduled to
arrive mid-afternoon. Our nursery and children’s hare completed and we are able to drop the babies off in
the nursery.
As we all sit to eat, Liam jumps in immediately. “I know the training was limited before because both Cara and
Angel were pregnant. But now that Angel is pregnant again.” he stops to kiss the side of her head, “and after the
effect on all of them after the pull of power at the tournament. I’m not sure I'm comfortable practicing the power
transfer that was planned. At least not with Angel. I'm not willing to put her or my child at risk.”
“Let's see what Ailduin has in mind for training this time. Liam. It’s possible that he has other ideas for our
training. But if not, | can push my power rather than having Grace or Cara pull it.

That way | control it.” Angel says.
“And there’s no reason Grace can’t practice with me. She has already pulled my power without really having any
training. Once Ailduin guides her, | think she'll have better control of how much. she pulls, so she’ll know when
it’s too much.” Cara adds.
“We'll be careful. If we need to take lots of breaks this weekend, we will.” Grace adds.

After lunch, we have the nursery staff bring the children out back to play, while we help watch over
them waiting for Ailduin.
“The pack has really ctogether.” Rik says toas we sit in the shade watching our mates playing with the
little ones.
“It's not done yet, but it feels like it's really coming together. | have plans for an expansion into the new land we
acquired. Several new pack members have asked about building their homes and wanting to create a second
market village where they can have stores closer to their homes.” | turn to Liam. “Perry has been great, by the
way. He's a fantastic general contractor. He has a good head for how to make things ctogether and good
ideas for ways to structure the groups of buildings that | wouldn't have thought of.”
“He’s one of my best. And | hear you have quite a few people who are very skilled in your pack. I'd like to have
him speak to them about continuing on with my company if you agree.”
We talk a little longer about the on-going development plans for the pack before we see Ailduin and Aolis walk
through the trees. I'm not exactly sure how they travel to get here, but each t| have seen them arrive, it's
been on foot.
