| pulled my car directly into my garage and closed it. | barely had a second before the doorbell rang. | sighed, but
| went to answer the door. Rick and everyone else was standing there in my doorway. "Hey, con in."
"What the hell happened to you." Ternen seemed surprised.
Alannah sighed. “I didn't tell you because | didn't want you to worry." | just smiled as | opened the door wide, and
everyone trailed in, but | stopped Rick.
“I'm going to open one of the garage doors, pull in. | don't want anyone to see your car on the street.” He
nodded, then turned back to his car.
Nix. Heal the rest of me. | called out.
Finally. She and Megan got to work, and by the t| hit the garage door open, | was fully healed. Rick pulled in
and | shut the door behind him. He slid out, surprised.
"How?" He waved his hands at me, and | just laughed.
"| stopped my wolves from healingso | could seem weaker around the pack. | wanted them to see me, and
think poor Amy."
He laughed. “Smart." | winked as | turned. "But what about everyone coming tonight?”

“I'll use magic to make myself look hurt." | cracked my neck. But Rick froze.
"Amy..." His voice was worried. "Shush."
| turned back to him. "What?" He waved a hand around the air. He slowly mouthed the words. 'Your house is
bugged.’ | laughed. "It's okay. A few weeks ago, | made a big show of cleaning the house up and removing
Morgan's and Shannon's stuff, when Shannon started to spread the rumor about her and Brandon. | ‘found all
the bugs and tossed them into their boxes. Pretending | thought they were just the knickknacks that they had
hidden them in. House is clear now."
He sighed and nodded. "Why didn't you use the magic before and just heal yourself?"
"I needed for Vince to smell the blood. If it was just magic, he would pretend that it wasn't that bad and use that
as a reason to advocate forto stay. | couldn't let that happen."
Rick shook his head. "Why did you need to transfer? | mean, we are all just running." We met everyone in the
living room. Abby ran over toand gavea hug.
"Can we go see Carly?"
| tapped her nose. "Not yet. But tonight we will." | turned to look at Rick as | backed into the kitchen. “It's a little
different for Alpha's. | needed to transfer so that | can ‘rebuild’ my father's pack. | couldn't start a pack, or claim
the land without transferring out of my current pack. If | had done that, then Vince could have claimed rights
over it." | pulled out the steaks | had thrown into the fridge last night. | started for the back door, but before |
stepped out into my backyard, | used sof my magic to makelook hurt again. | stepped out and started
the barbeque. “Rick?"
He cout. "Yeah?"
“Can you and Ternen man the grill?” | heard the doorbell. “I think | am about to have a lot of visitors." He
grinned.
“Sure thing.” He went to stand beside the grill as it heated up. “Do you have tongs and seasonings?”
| nodded. “I'll send Ternen out with everything." | walked back inside. “Ternen?”
"Yeah, Amy?” He trotted over.
| nodded for him to followto the kitchen. I pulled the steak seasoning my mom made out of the cupboard, a
plate, and tongs. | grabbed two beers from the fridge and handed it all to Ternen. "Can you go help Rick with the
steaks?"
He brightened. “Of course!” He turned around and headed outside as the doorbell rang out again.
I ran to the door and then turned
er
back to Abby and winked. | hunched over a little as | opened the door. It wasCorzone and his mate. He was
carrying his son. "Hey."
"Hey." | stepped aside. "Con in."
He walked in. "I know you're leaving tonight. But | was hoping..." He trailed off.
His mate stepped up beside him. "Carson, he's gotten weak again." She looked down. “Can you do whatever you
did last time?"
“Of course | can.” | opened my arms. “Is it okay if | bring him upstairs?"
She nodded. "Of course."
Corzone stared atfor a minute. "He is my only pup. My life."
I nodded. “I know, and | would never do anything that would hurt him. | swear it on the goddess." He stared at
| pretended to struggle to the stairs.
| turned back to Alannah and Shetty. "If anyone else comes while | am upstairs, let them in. I'll try to be
fast.” They nodded.
“Of course.” Shelly gavea knowing look. "Take your time." Then | went up the stairs and started the first of
many healings.
