Evence pushed herself off the bed and crossed her arms over her chest. Heaving a sigh, she gave a shrug and turned away from him to walk out of the room. "No. You did not fail to protect me. I chose to protect the King of this world. You have protected us well enough in the past. Just because I choose not to allow you to protect me doesn't make you a failure as a King, Merek. Get dressed, I will put together a patrol to take you home. Stay there, and for once allow me to eliminate a threat against the crown. As the only other dominant pack, besides your kingdom, it's our job to see to it nothing happens to you," she said, returning back to her Alpha state-of-mind.<br/><br/>Leaving the bedroom, Evence went into her own and got dressed. Picking a pair of long, red skinny jeans, a form fitting black tank top, and her white snow coat before heading downstairs and grabbing her snow boots. Using her pack's mind link, Evence called for a small group of her specialists to meet at her front door in an hour. Walking to the kitchen, she threw together a breakfast of pancakes, eggs, and bacon before setting it down on the counter for Merek. Hopping up to sit on the counter, she resided to waiting since it was all she could do for now. Wait and see where this new threat would strike next.<br/>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br/><br/>Rose gripped Zane's shirt tightly as a wolf lunged at her in her sleep, backing her in a corner to where she couldn't escape. Her body jerked a few times as the nightmare progressed but she soon settled down as she became aware of Zane's presence protecting her.
