For the next two weeks, we slowly but surely find all her missing brothers. They are all coming here soon. We have word of where her father is staying, but Oakley wanted all of her siblings to be there when we went to find their dad.

Grey has taken it fairly well knowing that his family is in pieces. Oakley has amazed me during these past two weeks and when we went on vacation. She is so caring and strong for her family. I'm so lucky to be her mate. She has slowly began to let her walls down around me and I'm honored that she does. I'm so proud of her.

I enter my bedroom and find Oakley staring out the window. I come up behind her and wrap my arms loosely around her. She relaxes into my arms and sighs.

"Everything is going to be okay." I state and kiss the top of her head.

She nods. "I know. I just hope I don't kill one of my brothers in the process." She says and pushes my arms away. She walks away and I follow her. She goes downstairs to meet her missing brothers and I'm right behind her. Grey is embracing all his brothers when we make it downstairs. Her brothers look up at her when she enters and they smile sadly. The twins take Grey into the other room just as my parents enter the room.

"Do we have a plan?" One of her brothers speak up after introductions are made.

My dad shakes his head. "Your father should be here in a few minutes. He wanted to come here instead of us coming to him."

Her brothers nod and begin to converse with one another. Oakley has all her walls up and seems to be a million miles away. I wish there was something that I could do, but I don't know what to do. She doesn't seem to want me close to her right now. I wish I knew what she was thinking.

The door opens and their father walks in. Her brothers start to envelope him, but Oakley growls and they stop.

"Let him sit," she commands and they give him space.

He focuses on his daughter and it's like they are having a conversation without speaking. He clears his throat and glances at all of us. "Thank you for taking care of my kids and reuniting us," he says to my dad. Dad nods and sits down. "As you all know Leo has taken over the pack. He is the rightful Alpha; however, how he did it was disrespectful and wrong. I want to know what you all think before I tell you my plan. Do you all think he should remain Alpha and do as he pleases?"

The brothers glance at one another and shake their heads. "I've always thought Sam would be a better Alpha." Conner states with a shrug.

Alpha Thomas smiles sadly. "Okay. Before I say this, hear me out. Sam would be a good Alpha, but I have someone else in mind. Oakley is more powerful than you guys realize. So, here's the plan. Oakley goes in and takes over Leo's pack. Once she kicks him out, then we figure out who will be Alpha and whatnot."

"Leo will kill her! Anyone who steps foot on his pack land is to be killed." Conner says worriedly.

Oakley clears her throat to get their attention. "No one will kill me if I shift before I set foot on 'his' land."

Everyone is silent for a few moments until my dad speaks up. "I'm sure some people from here will volunteer to back you up."

Oakley nods. "Just make sure they don't get in my way. I don't want to have unwanted blood on my hands."

"You're going to kill people?" Conner questions.

"If people get in my way while I'm in wolf form, I highly doubt they will survive. There's a reason I don't shift." Oakley responds.

"When are we going to take over?" Sam questions Alpha Thomas.

"The sooner the better." Alpha Thomas says and looks at Oakley.

"Two days," she replies and hugs her dad before heading upstairs.

I make sure all her brothers have a place to stay before heading upstairs to check on Oakley.

I walk in my room and Oakley is sitting on my bed. She Pat's the spot next to her and I sit beside her. "I need you to promise me something." She says and holds my hand.

"Anything," I say and squeeze her hand reassuringly.

"Be safe and don't get killed by me."

I try to hold in a laugh and have to cough it off. "You won't kill me, Oak."

"You haven't seen me when I shift. You are going to have to help me shift back to a human too."

"I can do that."

"Just please be careful." She says and leans her head against me.

"I will." I kiss her hand gently. "I promise."
