Chapter 105: Moonshine’s Fate

Logan, Thomas, and Santino convened in the campaign hospital while Santino was still recovering from his broken leg.

“They voted Damon out?” Santino asked, surprised. Logan nodded. “Yes, only his family spoke up for him.” Thomas reported. Santino laughed and shook his head.

“I admit, I didn’t see that coming,” he admitted. Logan smirked, “Well, he wasn’t that smart about it,” Logan elaborated. “There are still loyal rogues of his running loose. They are being round up.” “What are we going to do about the rest of Moonshine?” Santino asked. Logan and Thomas exchanged a look. Logan knew there was still a lot of work to do? before Moonshine would be able to stand on their feet. “There’s a lot of work to do,” Logan said. “The territory alone needs to be brought back to a point where it can sustain life and a pack population,” Thomas said. “We can’t just install an Alpha in Moonshine from one of our packs,” Santino said. “They just voted out their last Alpha. I doubt they’ll want someone else coming in and telling them who they have to be loyal to.”

“You’re right,” Logan said with a nod. Thomas stroked his chin thoughtfully.

“It wouldn’t do any good to let them chose their own Alpha either. They will need someone strong, but none of them are particularly strong anymore. Anyone with strength is going to be someone that will likely be just as bad as Damon in the long run,” the older Alpha said.

“We don’t necessarily need to put a new Alpha in control,” Logan offered. Both Thomas and Santino stared at him, confused. “It won’t take them long to trust us, not when we offer the help and support Damon denied them.” “You want one of us to assimilate the Moonshine pack?” Thomas asked, raising an eyebrow. Logan had gathered some files and maps after the trial. He had brought them to the field hospital so the Alphas could look them over. He pulled out a map and laid it across Santino’s legs on the hospital bed. “This map shows all three of the territories and our most updated information on pack

demographics and numbers,” Logan said. “Moonshine’s numbers have probably dwindled a fair amount over the years, since this was last updated,” Thomas said. Logan nodded in agreement. “Starseeker has less of a population than Night Sky,” Logan said.

“But we do not have the territory to assimilate a whole pack,” Thomas said, shaking his head.

Logan nodded, looking at the map more closely. He sighed, letting his mind wander through the different details of what they could do with the pack members and the territory. He and Thomas had their own packs to worry about too. Spending too much time and attention on building up Moonshine again could take away from their own packs.

“We split the territory,” Logan said.

“What?” Santino asked. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

“Starseeker and Night Sky both have a good handle on their own fields, orchards, and territories, which means that if we each took half of the Moonshine territory, it would take half the time to repair it and half the labor from each pack,” he explained. “It would also keep us from having to divert too much attention from our own pack needs.”

“You just want to take the Moonshine territory from them, displace them?” Thomas asked. Logan chuckled and shook his head. “No, no,” he said, holding his hands up. “Starseeker has a lower population than Night Sky. In the interest of preventing too much power and resources being given to either one of us, the Moonshine members should be taken under your jurisdiction.” “That could work.”

Thomas said with a nod. He looked at Santino. “Two packs instead of three?” Serena’s brother asked. “The division of Moonshine territory will give Starseeker slightly more land volume to support their increased population and to match the Night Sky territory. If you think that you’ll need more laboring hands to tend to that land until it is restored, I can provide the power,” Logan offered.

“Thank you.” Thomas said.

“What of the Federation?” Santino asked. “We worked so hard to get all three packs involved.”

“The Federation isn’t going anywhere,” Logan said. “Starseeker and Night Sky have demonstrated that we uphold the treaty, we still honor the alliance. As far as I’m concerned, that will continue even as Moonshine is assimilated.”

“Agreed” Thomas said with a nod. “We will be a two pack Federation.” Santino sighed, rolling up the map that had been laid across his legs. His cast had already been removed and he was just wearing a bandage. He was still hobbling around, but he didn’t need the crutches anymore. “Santino, you’ll be Alpha soon,” Thomas said, clapping Santino on the shoulder. “You must agree to this arrangement as well. It is your future pack.” “I agree with it,” Santino said, nodding. “Our two packs are intertwined with more than just the Federation. Serena is my sister, and a part of your pack. She also holds us.

together.”

Logan gave a half smile and collected the map. He had considered that before, and now, her presence in Night sky only strengthened the alliance. Her kids could very well one day be his heirs, and then the leadership of the Night Sky and Starseeker packs would be bound by blood. It put the two packs in a very strong position. “Good,” Logan said. “How is your leg?” “Better,” Santino said, rubbing the bandage. “It is a bit stiff still, but most of the healing is done. Serena gave me something to help speed

that along.” “When will she be coming back to the hospital?” Thomas asked. “She went on a supply run to the hospital back in town,” Logan told them. “She wanted to check in with Adriana and update her reports.” “Always the thorough one,” Thomas said with a chuckle. Logan smiled too. Despite what Serena had said about them showing that Santino was their favorite, Logan could see that her parents were proud of her. He wished they would tell her that more, and then maybe she wouldn’t work so hard to prove herself all the time.

Logan hadn’t told her yet, but now he felt he had to, that she didn’t need to prove anything to him. He made a mental note to do that when he saw her again.

“Once your leg is healed up, we will finalize the arrangements of our agreement over Moonshine,” Logan said. Santino nodded. Logan finished collecting his items and tucked them into a messenger bag he had brought with him. “I’ve got to get back to my office and make sure that my pack isn’t falling into disarray during this conflict,” Logan said. “Might I accompany you?” Thomas asked. “I must check in with my Beta and do the same.” “Please do,” Logan said, holding his arm out and inviting Thomas to lead the way. “Logan,” Santino called to him before he could leave. Logan turned back, raising an eyebrow “What is it?” he asked. “Are you going to kill Damon and his family?” Santino asked. Logan sighed. “That is another topic we shall decide upon between the three of us,” Logan said. “For now, it is best to focus on recovery. Your recovery, the recovery of the Moonshine wolves, and the recovery of the territory. The focus should be on rebuilding first.” “You’re a good Alpha,” Santino said with a nod. Logan smirked. “Then it will be good for us to work alongside each other in the future,” he said, touching Santino’s shoulder. Santino nodded. Logan followed after Thomas. There were several trucks parked around, and Logan

went to the closest. “Are you able to take us back to the town?” he asked the driver. “Certainly, Alpha,” the driver said. Logan pulled open the sliding door and he climbed into the back with Thomas. “You’re plan for Moonshine’s future was very clever,” Thomas said. “Though, there may come a time in the

future when dividing into three packs again is a necessity. If the two populations become unmanageable.” “That’s true,” Logan agreed. “Though, I doubt that will happen in our lifetimes.” “You’re young, yet,” Thomas pointed out. Logan chuckled. Logan sighed, leaning back in his seat. He started to think about his own pack again. He still had responsibilities to fulfill for his pack, like finding a Luna and producing heirs. Normally, it happened in that order, but Logan had had heirs first and now had to find a Luna.

He and Serena hadn’t talked about anything about them and the kids since before Logan had broken up with Holly. He wanted to know if she would entertain trying it out, now that Holly wasn’t an obstacle.

Too many thoughts spun around in his mind. Leading up to the attack, all he’d cared about was defeating Damon and rescuing Moonshine. Now, everything he had been putting off came flooding back, overwhelming him with thoughts he hadn’t processed

yet.

Serena and the kids were at the forefront of his mind.
