Game of Destiny (Amie and Finlay) novel Chapter 98

Chapter 98-1

“We would be honoured. I would be honoured. I will do my best to live up to the standard of Beta, we have had two of the best wolves for the role,” Jake told us. I smiled.

“I think you will be amazing. It’s clear you both are dedicated to the pack and you are brilliant, Jake,” I said. “And I will be here to hand things over to you.” Finlay placed a kiss on the back of my hand.

“I’m happy you accepted. We will need a day or two for Amie to clear out the office and you have earned some time off. But we expect you to be ready to join in any meeting of the top tier starting today. I will announce it to the pack at lunch,” he said.

“Yes, Alpha.” We let them get on with their day. They had a lot to talk about and they needed to tell their children as well.

“So. What is up next on that list of yours?” Finlay asked.

“Speaking to my parents. Elder and Becky won’t be home for another couple of days, but I don’t want to wait.”

“We can do it here, or we can do it at home.”

“At home, on the porch. I will make us some lemonade,” I said.

“You have the best ideas,” he told me.

You seem excited,” I remarked as we were walking back to our house, hand in hand, with a pitcher of lemonade I had made in the pack kitchen as we still hadn’t had time to shop and our fridge was empty.

“I like your parents. I enjoy talking to them and they always make me feel like I’m part of the family. It’s nice.” He can be so adorable, I thought as he got glasses while I got comfortable on the couch out back. I sent a text to my parents asking if it was okay to call. They answered almost straight away we could call when we were ready. Finlay poured the lemonade and sat down next to me with his arm around me. I called my dad and he and my mom showed up on my screen.

“Hi,” both Finlay and I said at the same time. My parents‘ smiles grew bigger.

“Hello you two, did you make it back safely?” my mom asked.

“Yes, it was an uneventful trip,” Finlay told her.

“And the pack?” she wanted to know. I laughed.

“They got a nice surprise. I think they have received the news well,” said.

“Don’t listen to her,” Finlay objected. “The pack is ecstatic.” I elbowed him as my parents laughed.

“Have a look at this mom,” I said as a way to distract her and let the camera show the garden, the wildflower covered meadow beyond it, the creek and the woods.

Oh my. That is an amazing garden,” I heard her say. I put the camera back on us.

“Ready to talk about what happened on your last day at the game?” my dad asked.

“How much has Elder told you?” I asked.

“Not much. Just enough to let us know James did something which could have ended badly, but thanks to Finlay and you, disaster was avoided,” he told us.

Chapter 98-1

Do you want to tell them?‘ Finlay asked in a mindlink.

“No, you go ahead. And don’t try to lessen it. Elder will end up telling them everything,‘ I told him. Finlay kissed my hair and told my parents everything. I watched my parents pale and my father’s face took on a hard look. Again, I got a feeling I was making their lives harder. It was as I was thrown back ten years in time. Finlay had finished his story and we let my parents take it all in.

‘Stop it, Red. This is not your fault. You are not the one who caused his and I will not let you feel guilty because of it,‘ he said in a mindlink.

‘I will try.‘

‘You will not try, you will do.‘ I smiled.

‘Yes, Alpha.‘

“That is not what I was expecting, or hoping, to hear How he could do something like it. Even thinking of coming between a true mated and marked pair,” my dad said. His voice made it clear how offended he was by the thought.

“Are you okay, Finlay?” my mom asked.

“I’m fine, all healed and it doesn’t look like there will be much of a scar,” he answered.

Game of Destiny

Chapter 98-2

“We are grateful for your leniency. We all know the punishment for the offence and our pack would have suffered. As a member of the Eagle Forest pack, I appreciate what you did. As your dad, 1 wish you had reported everything to the council and let the man who hurt you and then hurt your mate, face his crimes.” We all looked at him.

“Someone is grumpy today,“/my mom said and kissed my dad.

“Have you given any thought to receiving a call from the others?” my mom asked.

“Are they still interested in talking even though I rejected James?” I asked. I had thought their will to talk to me had stemmed from me potentially being their Luna.

“I would like to do it, as long as Finn can be there as well,” I said. I wanted him there as he made me feel safe, and I knew he would never let me take a call like it without him.

“And we will be there as well,” my mom told me.

“That is a given,” my dad agreed.

“Then you can set it up. We will be a little busy the coming days with celebrating our rank, me moving, the new Beta settling in…”

“We will wait for a week or so,” my dad told me.
