I ran through the front door of the pack house, scaring the omega that was cleaning the front entry. She
screamed as | slammed through, but | kept running until | made it to the office. Alannah was pale, shivering
behind her desk. She looked atwith wide eyes, panic clear on her face. Rick's door was closed, but Ternen
was rubbing Alannah's back in small circles. Something was wrong.
| shifted back and | opened my office door, turning back to look at them, and nodding inside. Alannah was out of
her chair before | could blink. | waited for Ternen to join us before | shut the door. | hugged Alannah and took a
deep breath, but all I could smell was Ternen's rancid smell. | pushed them into the chairs across fromand
sat at my desk, pulling out my laptop. "Good morning."
"Morning Amy." Ternen tried to smile.
"You two look stressed. What can | do to help?" | typed out a message on the
screen.
Amy- What is going on? You look like you are going to puke.
| turned the computer to Ternen and Alannah. "Nothing." Alannah sighed. "Rick is just having a rough morning.
Abby is really sick and Vince cin a lot earlier. Something about needing to speak to him." Alannah leaned in.

"Yeah, | wanted you to look at the filing system. | wanted you to take a look and leave any notes you have on the
notepad." She nodded and hunched over the keyboard. Ternen looked over at the computer and then turned
back to me.
"I don't know what that all is. Rick's filing system haunts most of us omegas." | could see that Ternen was trying
his best to act normal.
"I don't doubt it. It's insane." | laughed with him until Alannah sat back and pushed the laptop back to me.
"It looks good, but I did tweak a few things." She slid her fingers through Ternen's and smiled.
| nodded and pulled it back to me. "How was yesterday? Were there any more breeches?"
Alannah nodded. "There were a few alarms when you were off." She turned to Ternen and started explaining the
security system in place while | read her message.
Alannah- Vince walked in first thing this morning. He stopped at my desk before Ternen cin and took a deep
breath. Then he just smiled atand knocked on my desk. He was going to say something as Rick walked out.
But something is going on with Rick. Abby is really sick, and he was looking for you this morning. He was
panicking. I think he's worried that she's going to die.
I'm terrified Vince scented the baby. Ternen received a text a few minutes ago about a new posting at the border.
And Rick and Vince were screaming at each other less than ten minutes before you ran in.
Shit is happening and | don't know what to do or think.
Help us.
| looked up from my screen, and | met her eyes. | smiled, and | did my best to reassure her. "These suggestions
are great." | sat back and pulled the laptop into my lap. "I'm about halfway through digitizing his box of insanity."
Alannah forced a laugh, and | smirked. "But | will add these into the system tonight." |
looked up as | shut the laptop. "You guys should cover for a
barbeque tonight."
Alannah looked at Ternen. "Do we have anything we need to do tonight?"
Ternen thought for a minute. "Just laundry." He looked back atand grimaced. "Our place doesn't have a
laundry, so we have to go to the one on main." Alannah turned towith a pout.
"Sorry Amy."
| smiled. "It's okay. Why don't you just bring your laundry over to my place and we can wash it while we have
dinner?"
Ternen's eyes widened a little. "Are you sure? It's a lot."
| nodded and swiped a hand through
the air. "It's totally fine." | leaned on the desk. To be honest, it's been too quiet in the house lately, so you two
coming to do your laundry will be great" | turned my desktop on. "When Rick is free, I'll see if he wants
to bring Shelly and Abby and make
it's good night."
Alannah nodded. "That sounds great. | know they have been worried about Abby.
But maybe getting out for the night will help.”
| blew out a breath. "Maybe." | looked
at the clock also don't want to spring it on. Shelly last minute." | looked at Alannah. "I know Rick is with Vince,
but do you think you can call her and ask if she wants to ctonight? | won't ask for an answer until she talks
to Rick, but this way she has a heads up and can get Abby situated for when he heads home."
Allanah hopped up. "Of course."
