The Meeting

Grayson pov

I got up and was walking around the room. Sydney still hadn't woken up yet and I needed to get to that meeting but I wasn't going to leave her alone.

There was a light knock on the door.

I opened it to reveal Wesley standing there.

"Hello, Lycan I came to let you know they are all ready for you in the meeting.......has Sydney woken up yet?"

"You can call me Grayson, since you are close to me now. Sydney hasn't woken up yet."

I turned to her direction, making sure she still hadn't woken up.

"If you want, I can have Annabelle stay with her so she won't be alone so we can go to the meeting."

"Isn't she needed there?"

"Yes, but she can come later, when she wakes up. They both can come at that time."

"Okay."

He bowed his head and left me to get Annabelle.

I closed the door as I finished getting ready, I sat down on the couch waiting for Annabelle to arrive.

Knock, Knock

I opened the door to reveal Annabelle. She smiled at me.

"I heard you requested I stay with Sydney?"

"Yes, now that you know everything I wish you to stay here while she sleeps. Please get me immediately once she wakes or let Wesley know to tell me. I want to be here once she's up."

"Yes, Lycan I will do that."

"Thank you, Annabelle."

She knodded her head in understanding. I walked out the door and down the hall to the meeting room. We needing to get this figured out before they were attacked.

I walked into the meeting room, all eyes fell on me. They all rose to there feet and bowed there heads as I made my way to the head of the table. Wesley was on one side and Alpha Trevor was at my other side. I sat down in my seat and then motioned for all others to take there seats.

"As you all know we are here today to discuss our plans for this hunter clan that have been attacking this pack. All other packs have not been attacked but have noticed the increase in hunters in the area. They do not know I have come back or they would not be attacking any pack, they would be coming after me directly and my mate. This is good news for when they do attack, we will be ready with a counter attack. Now what do we know about this hunter clan or when they might be coming?"

I looked around the room as no one had answers, I looked to Alpha Trevor with his head down. I then looked to Wesley and his eyes turned black, he was having a conversation or his wolf was trying to take over.

"Wesley?"

"Sorry Lycan........the Luna just woke up!"

I jumped to my feet before anyone could react I was out the door and down the hall. In just seconds I was outside our door. I knocked lightly to be polite.

The door opened and Annabelle let me in. I rushed to her side and held her in my arms.

"Sydney, your awake! I was so worried....."

"I'm sorry Grayson, my anger took over and before I knew it I couldn't stop the anger it kept rising up. I know how to control it better know."

I kissed her forehead as she was in my arms.

"I have a meeting to discuss the plan would you like to sit in and give ideas with me?"

"Am I allowed to?"

I laughed at her innocence.

"You, my dear are the Lycan Mate and will always have a say in what happens. Even if you are not a wolf that won't matter to anyone there."

She smiled up at me.

"Let me get changed real quick then."

She went to the bathroom to changed and I turned to Annabelle.

"Annabelle, I want you in the meeting too. Not just to be there for Sydney but I know you have some insight to the hunters since you were there with them for so long."

"You know?"

"I don't know everything which is why I want you there incase you see something that can help us."

"Okay, Lycan."

"I will wait for you both in the meeting room."

"Yes Lycan."

I left the room and walked back into the meeting room. I sat back down in my chair but this time I had Wesley move down one for Sydney to sit when she came in.

"Sorry for running out but we shall continue......what does anyone know about the hunters?"

Silence and all heads were down.

"ARE YOU TELLING ME THEY HAVE BEEN KIDNAPPING WOLVES AND NO ONE HAS ANY IDEA OR INFORMATION ON THESE HUNTERS!"

As I was shouting the door opened and closed but I was blinded by my rage! I felt everyone's fear in the room as my anger grew more. Suddenly there was a hand on my arm, my eyes were black and were starting to return to normal.

She looked me in the eyes as she spoke.

"They don't know much my dear because the hunters used cloaking to hid from any normal detection. Let Annabelle tell her story and maybe we can figure out a plan from there."

I pulled Sydney to my chest as she was calming my inner Lycan. She sat on my lap as everyone waited for me to speak.

I looked to Annabelle, she had fear in her eyes as well.

"Annabelle will you please tell us what you know." I said softly as I held onto Sydney.

She knodded her head as she stood next to Wesley for comfort.

"I lived with the hunters for many years, my wolf hidden so I wouldn't be detected as a wolf. The head hunter has come up with many new inventions while I was there. The first thing and probably why you have no information on them now is the masking spray. It leaves no scent so they come and go and you can smell them, they have no scent to them or there property. One dangerous items they came up with is a liquid taser, though when tested you can recover but it keeps you down for a long time. The most dangerous item is liquid bullets, and its a casing that holds liquid silver once it hits its target the liquid escapes and there is nothing to dig out. It's horrible pain and would not wish that on any wolf. The testing subjects all suffered and there was no way of survival for them."

"So they are still testing these weapons then?"

"Yes, the masking spray is proven effective but the other two are still in testing phases but I'm sure when they come they will bring that with them."

"And why do we assume they are coming here?"

She gulped.

"I'm sorry Lycan, it is my fault."

"What is?"

"When I was kidnapped, I was held in a cell for a very long time to see if I would turn like my brother did. When I didn't they released me from the cell and made me there servant. When I came out I was weak from being deprived of food, they injected me with a tracker and said this way they could find what was there's if I ever tried to escape them. When I helped Wesley and the others escape he wanted to help me leave and I forgot about it since it was years ago. Now I know I'm the reason they know where we are."

I closed my eyes as I was processing everything. Sydney spoke as I was thinking.

"It is not your fault Annabelle, they were going to come whether or not you helped them. They always want to find wolves to destroy them."

They looked at eachother as Annabelle had a slight smile on her face.

"Okay, so can anyone tell me when we think they should be arriving."

"Honestly we are surprised they haven't come yet." An Alpha at the end of the table said.

"So we are going to assume they are attacking tomorrow then. So here is the plan then. We continue to do patrols, however if they do scent something do nothing but report it. We want them to come into town. The good thing about this town is it's circular shape, when they get all the way in they have no where else to go. We can possition men in the top buildings and now we have an advantage point. They will be below us. I will be out in the front with Alpha Wesley and Alpha Trevor, we will be the trap for them. Sydney and Annabelle will be in the back with anyone injured or unable to fight. We will be on defensive until they come."

"We sent most of the women, children and elderly away to Wesley's pack already." Alpha Trevor spoke.

"That's good, now if in two days time they do not attack us we will form a plan to attack them. Does everyon agree to this plan?"

"Yes they all said in unison."

I stood up with Sydney still attached to me. I smiled down at her.

"Then get some sleep, we must all be training and on alert until this is over with."

With that everyone got up and left the room. I took my mate and guided her to our room. We needed sleep to get through these two days, hoping they come here so we don't have to go there.
