CHAPTER 83
Declan
I pass by Lila as I head to the front door, and I can sense her looking at me. If I know the nosey Luna as well as I think I do, she
will be staring out the window to see what is going on. I smile down at the doctor as I make my way down the front steps while he
grabs his bag from his trunk.
"Sands, I'm so glad that you could make it!" I say in a booming voice. Since my back is to the house, Lila can see me talking, so I
quickly explain to him in a very low voice, about what Carter and I had discussed; how he is my mother's friend and so on. I
shake his hand, "It's nice to meet you, mother couldn't stop talking about you this morning."
"Well, your mother is such a kind woman, I couldn't pass up on her offer to visit, and since I'm passing through the area, I
figured, why not?"
The doctor is better than I thought at this acting thing, "Just one thing before we go inside, what is your first name?" I ask in
another low voice.
"It's Jonah, Alpha, Jonah Sands." He answers.
I quickly mind link my mother his name, so she doesn't have to call him by his last name, and then I sweep my hand toward the
front steps indicating that we should head in. We are only halfway up the stairs when Lila comes out and crosses her arms over
her chest.
"Who are you?" She asks in a bitchy tone.

"LILA! This is a Mr. Sands, a friend of my mother's! You will treat him with respect!" I hiss at her.
"Well, as Luna of this pack, don't you think I should be informed whenever we are having a guest?" She states defensively.
"You are Luna in name only, Lila. Pack business is NONE of your business. Nobody has to inform you of anything." I turn
towards the doctor, "Please, pay her no mind. She's a bit temperamental lately.”
Lila stomps her foot like a child and glares at me just as my mother comes waltzing out with her arms wide open, "Jonah, dear!
I'm so happy you could make it!" She goes in for a hug, and Sands doesn't even blink as he slips his arms around my mother.

Shit! I forgot to give him my mother's name, so I quickly link her and warn her of my mistake. I'm assuming she whispers it in his
ear because he's pulling away from her and holding her at arms- length.

"Amelia, how could I not accept your offer? I feel as though we didn't have much time to visit before I had to return home. I'm so
glad I was passing through close to your territory. Thank you for the invite."
The two are doing such a good job, I'm beginning to believe that they really do know each other. My mother links her arm
through. his and leads him inside and I follow. Lila is still standing on the porch, and then I remember that I'm supposed be
warming up to her. After what I just said to her, I have a lot of work to do to get her to believe that I'm sincere.
I turn back towards the she-bitch, "Lila, look, I apologize for calling you out just now, but you upset with me your attitude towards
my mother's guest. Can you please be a bit more civil in the future?"

"I'm sorry, Alpha. Of course, I was way out of line." She bows her head at me, and I go to walk back in, but pretending to have an
afterthought I turn around once again, "By the way, I am having a little dinner party tonight and as the Luna of this pack, I expect
you to be there. I know you have issues with her, but that dinner is for Alpha Quinn and Gavin. We are celebrating their
upcoming union ceremony."
I can see the jealousy begin to rise when I mention Quinn's name, but once I finish saying that it's for their union, her expression
changes to one of happiness, "Of course, I will be there. Thank you for informing me of it."
All I do is nod while tight-lipped. I can't very well change my attitude toward her in a blink of an eye, so I have to make it
believable. "One last thing, Lila, as the Luna, can you oversee the kitchen staff and make sure everything is perfect? Veal is on
the menu for dinner, but have the staff also make chicken, so there is a choice." I need to keep her busy, so she doesn't
eavesdrop because she is notorious for that, "Oh, and if you do well for tonight's dinner, I will give you a few more Luna duties
until eventually you are running the place. Don't disappoint me."
Her face lights up because it's what she's always wanted, and she thinks she's getting closer to her goal. I can't help the big grin
that spreads across my face after I turn and walk inside. My mother and Jonah are both waiting on me, and they are still chatting
up a storm, it's quite amusing to watch.
Me, Carter, and Jonah are in my office discussing the best way to go about injecting Lila with the tracker, as well as the best
place. Because the tracker doesn't go in too deep, we have to place it in an area with a little more fat too it, so she can't feel it if
she runs her hand over it. We decide on injecting it in the inside of her thigh,

which I am very happy that I won't be the one injecting it; I've seen enough of the inside of her thighs to last me a lifetime.
When my mother comes in, I switch the conversation right away about the possible doctors that he may know, "Which would you
recommend is the best one to take over here?"

Jonah scratches his head, "Well, I do know about one doctor with years of experience. He's looking for a change of scenery and
I would think that you would be pleased with him."
'Oh? Who may that be and how can I contact him?" I have my pen poised ready to write the information down.
'Well, you're staring at him." He states matter-of-factly.
I literally stare back at him, "Are you serious? You're leaving the Black Forest pack?"
"I've been thinking about it for a while now, and the whole issue with that Jasper asshole is just eating at me. I understand that
he had the future Luna, but like Alpha Quinn had once said, anybody that could stand by and watch what they were doing to her,
shouldn't be in a leadership position. She said that she, herself, could never let that happen to another."
"Alpha Quinn is definitely an amazing she-wolf." I admit.
"I knew after that whole ordeal, that I couldn't stay there. It never really felt like home to me anyway."
"Where is home?" My mother kindly asks.
"Down south, South Carolina to be exact." He smiles, but it's a sad
one.
"Oh? What made you come up north?"

"My pack was attacked by one of those renegade packs that search for the mystical Dire wolf. My mate and two children were
killed, and I could no longer stay." He explains, and all of our hearts go out to him for his loss.
"What is it about these packs and the fucking Dire wolf?" Carter grumbles.

"Do you have problems here as well?" Jonah asks.
Me, my mother, and Carter all glance at one another, "Not us, personally, but that's how Quinn got her Alpha status. Her pack
was attacked by Jasper's father who was one of those renegade Alphas and she lost her whole family and the majority of her
pack."
"Oh, that poor woman!" The three of us nod.
Bringing the original topic forward once more, I ask, "How soon would you be able to be back here? I'm really hoping that it
doesn't take long for the truth to come out, and for the time being, you will actually be pack doctor for two pack's since, Alpha
Quinn doesn't have one as of yet. She does have a she-wolf in training, though. So, if you're back before this is all settled, I will
set you up with the Dark Moon pack."
"Since Alpha Tate has another doctor to fall back on, and I'm not leaving him high and dry, all I have to do is go pack and pack
up. I'll have to take care of a few finances and all, but I can probably be back within a week's time, if not sooner."
"That sounds great to me. I guess all I have to say is, welcome to the pack Jonah.”
