Jaymus had been so focused on checking his Luna over for injury that he didn’t even register that Cyrus was there. That didn’t last long because the anger that radiated from his Alpha had his attention turning quick. While it wasn’t altogether painful to be picked up by the scruff of his neck, it was incredibly humiliating and he yelped in surprise, which only furthered his humiliation.<br/><br/>He’d been caught unaware not once but twice. However, the first was the most unforgivable. His Luna could have been fatally harmed and it would have been his fault. Not only was he not there, but his team had failed to protect their borders. He wondered where they were and what had happened to them, but clearly he was going to need a new approach to training. Maybe Preston’s idea would work…<br/><br/>While Jaymus was a little glad that his Luna tried to tell Cyrus to cut it out, he was embarrassed that his Luna had to do it at all. Sure, their relationship was built for them to protect each other, but that was also based on the trust that they would follow through. Jaymus had not. It was a surprise to hear that the wolf had been detained, but it was not a surprise that the Beta had been the one to do it. Preston seemed to always be cleaning up Jaymus’ messes and it bothered the Gamma that Preston kept showing him up.<br/><br/>He heard what Victoria said and growled before he could stop himself. Looking over at her, he watched her carefully. In no way was she about to go down to the wolf that tried to kill her, especially not so soon after the fact. Her strength wouldn’t have even returned to her yet. If anything, he was going to go down and rip her apart himself.<br/><br/>His body jumped and tensed when the door slammed behind him and instantly the Beta was between himself and Cyrus, the hand holding him released and Jaymus had a chance to shake himself off. He skirted around the two and moved directly to the Luna’s side, licking her hand lightly before brushing his head against her leg. He was glad she was safe.<br/><br/>From his own safe spot by her side, he watched the interaction between the Beta and Alpha, listening  closely to what Preston had to say.<i>She was from the Grey Pack? How was that possible?</i>Jaymus didn’t know much about the Grey Pack, other than it was completely slaughtered by an unknown intruder. It was speculated that it was from a rival pack, but others said that they’d had no rivals. Perhaps that was what had caused the rivalry in the first place, but nobody seemed to know what really happened. There had been nobody alive to tell them.<br/><br/>It did concern him, though. If there was a member of the Grey pack alive and out for blood...why were they here? Questions raced through his head and he knew that he needed more information. There was a wolf that wanted them dead (at least their Luna), and he needed to know exactly<i>why</i>.
