"Okay, that will be all for today. Have them report back to Nathan, and he will tell me what’s going on. I want proper coverage on this. Failure is not an option, and I will not tolerate it," Cain’s voice boomed through the room. He had just concluded a two-hour meeting with the high-ranking wolves. Merging the two packs wasn’t easy, and it was already testing the waters.
"You’re dismissed," he announced, then walked over to the alcohol cabinet, taking out a bottle of scotch and poured it for himself. After talking and practically teaching grown men what to do, he was on the brink of insanity.
The men had now begun to filter out of the office, all of them off to do as he ordered. Cain shut his eyes, exhaling as he tried to get through to Avery through the mind link. He loved listening to her thoughts, but today, on the other hand, he couldn’t get through to her.
His eyes snapped open, a small smirk coming to rest on his face. She had already figured out how to pull up the mind link.
He walked over towards the window, hoping to catch her outside in the garden, but of course, she wasn’t there. Just as he grabbed his phone, ready to call her, a knock on the door had him pausing.
"Come in," he called out.
The door swung open, and Lydia stepped in.
Cain’s gaze immediately snapped towards the calendar on the wall. It had been a week since she left and was just returning now.
"You’re back already?" he asked.
