“The Blood Moon Clan has gone mad!”
“What threat, anyway?”
“Who do you think you are, commanding us!”
I close my eyes and try to shut myself out. Gosh, I didn’t expect to get all the answers at once... Guess the mind-linking opened way too many doors. Dozens of voices are using the link backward, and I need my wolf’s help to shut them down.
“Nora, are you okay?” Asks Damian, concerned.
“Sorry... It’s my head...”
He helps me sit down while I try to concentrate. My wolf is confused, and it takes me a while to shut the ones I don’t know out, while only keeping the voices I do recognize.
“Long time no see, kid!”
“Grandpa Seaver?”
“That’s me! Great job, young lady. Anyway, we will be there. I would have said no to Black, but with you, that’s a different story. I don’t forget my debts. I still owe you for my daughter’s life, so consider it done. The Sea Moon Clan will come.”
“Thank you!”
It might not be a big Clan, but I’m still happy to get at least one positive answer. When I’m about to tell Damian, I hear William’s voice.
“So, you learned how to use your Royal voice. Impressive.”
“Will you come?”
“I said I would, didn’t I? But do not expect us to suddenly act friendly toward Black. We still have too many issues to settle...”
I bite my lip. I expected this, but I really hope this meeting won’t turn into a big fight between all of the packs... I tell Damian and the others about at least two Clans coming.Meanwhile, Vince also confirms the Jade Moon will come, though a lot of them are concerned.
“We expect this, but this is how it always works between werewolves anyway, miss Nora. No matter what happens, you did what you had to. We know how risky this is,” says Neal.
“Don’t worry, baby girl. It’s going to be okay. Even if only a few packs show up, it’s plenty, okay? We just need to open up a dialogue,” adds Tonia with a reassuring smile.
I nod. Honestly, I wish Liam were there. He probably would have said something to make me laugh and taken my anxiety away. Since the younger Black’s disappearance, I feel uneasy. I don’t know what happened to him or the witch. He was supposed to be the one to capture her! Why did she free him? I hope I was right to trust her...
“Anyway, we need to get ready. Three days is a very short time to get everything ready. Securing the stadium, informing the human police, and preparing the lieutenants won’t be an easy job,” says Neal.
He takes out his smartphone and gives orders very fast, though he already did as soon as I agreed to this. A real Beta’s job, I imagine.
Damian gets up to talk to Tonia, and as he leaves me alone on the sofa, Bobo jumps on it to lie next to me. The giant wolf puts his head on my knee. I know he wants to comfort me, and I scratch his ear.
“A bit higher, please.”
“Bobo! It’s funny to hear your wolf voice!”
“You’re the one who opened the link. But It’s tough to maintain for me. Your wolf’s too strong; it’s like sending rocks in a waterfall.”
“I don’t care, you’re the one always in your wolf form, it’s hard to talk to you!”
“I can hear from you anytime.”
I roll my eyes, annoyed.
“I mean, when you can actually answer.”
“Daniel says the same thing...”
