A challenge

Samantha read the message on her phone. Nate was asking to meet to decide on a peace treaty. Why ask her, though?

Oh, maybe Renato had the authority to decide for the whole pack. For the moment, he could make the big decisions until the pack assumed a better shape. Then, a new Alpha would have risen, and they would decide how to live further.

It would have been the time to leave for her. She couldn't imagine a young Alpha able to deal with her. And she wasn't ready to suppress her nature again. In Nate's pack, it had been easy, almost natural. But in a new one, with people she had considered her enemies until a few days before... She couldn't do it.

«Hey?» Renato said, noticing her expression.

«Nate asked to meet. He wants to make peace.»

«You mean to define the details. We already are at peace. Since you're here and all...»

She nodded.

«I'll come with you,» he added.
