The Alpha's Unwanted Luna (by Miss L) novel Chapter 309

Chapter 309

4 – Ben

I still don’t fully understand why organizing a trip to a pack just an hour away demands weeks of preparation. The sheer number of protocols and formalities is overwhelming, making my head spin with details. We had to negotiate everything—from securing protection to agreeing on how and when we could enter the pack’s territory. But beyond that, there were unexpected complications none of us anticipated. Alpha James and my dad had us poring over maps late into the night, searching for potential ambush points where rogue wolves might strike, and marking all the locations where previous attacks were reported. By now, I probably know the borders of Black Claw almost as well as I know our own pack’s territory.

The more they explain, the clearer the picture becomes, yet it doesn’t ease the tension. We’re told to take all this intelligence with a grain of salt—trust what we see, but don’t dismiss the warnings either. Since the discovery of a young warrior displayed at their far western border, no new attacks have occurred, but Alpha David remains convinced that the root of the problem lies in his daughter’s recent transition to leadership. He insists this isn’t over by a long shot and promised to elaborate once we arrive. That vague threat does nothing to calm my nerves. I like to have a plan and be prepared; having crucial information deliberately withheld feels like a form of torture to me.

“Ready?” Jason’s voice pulls me out of my thoughts as he steps into my dad’s office, where I’m hunched over the maps again.

“As ready as I’ll ever be,” I reply, rubbing my temples. “Something about this whole situation feels off. I can’t quite put my finger on it. I don’t think we’re walking into immediate danger, but there’s definitely something strange going on.”
