Alpha Mitch returned to the pack house just a few minutes before one of his men ran inside the dining room breathlessly.
"Alpha, there are some armed men coming towards the pack house.
They couldn't stop them at the pack borders and a few of our men were killed". He said in a hurry.
Mariah seated beside him gasped in shock and looked at him with fear in her eyes.
His mother had left the pack house a few days ago to visit a friend outside the country and he was relieved she did.
He had sent Boston to her a few hours ago. His only worry now is Mariah but he trusts her to fend for herself although he had assigned men to look after her.
"Why are they coming here?
Send some warriors to stop them before they get here. It would be difficult to stop them without hurting innocent people if they get here". She said fearfully but Alpha Mitch ignored her and gestured at the young beta that came in to leave.
"Mariah, do you trust me?" Alpha turned to her when they were alone again.
