tonight.”
    “Yay,” Rissa said and clapped her hands.
    “Party!” Cherri laughed.
    Calli looked serious and stared at the three-mated people. “I know we sometimes fight and are crazy, but we are family no matter what. You should have known we would never have ignored your mating.”
    Pilar sighed. “It was really just too much to fight.”
    “Bullshit,” Calli growled. “We need to get over this. Meeting in a half an hour.”
    Brooks and Calix rolled their eyes and sighed. Finally, Brooks said, “Call everyone.”
    “Oh, they are already there, I called the meeting an hour ago, we just wanted to come in here and create a little drama. You know, just for shits and giggles.” Cherri shrugged and the three women walked out of the room.
    “Is this what it is gonna be like?” Calix asked.
    “Yep, sorry to say, they are just bat shit crazy,” Pilar laughed.
    *****
    The meeting room was full once again. Although this time instead of the room being relaxed, they were tense. On one side of the room sat Calli, Cherri, Rissa, Kiki, and their mates (even Phillip who had made it back into Rissa’s good graces), while the other side sat, Pilar, her mates, Blackie, and Gio. Surrounding them was the rest of them that weren’t taking sides apparently.
    “Listen, when we started this whole thing we assumed you told us everything,” Calli said and looked at Pilar.
    “You know we couldn’t,” Pilar said.
    “Yeah, but if what you say is true it changes things. I mean, you are the Chosen’s children,” Calli growled.
    “And?” Pilar said slowly. “It shouldn’t make a difference, I mean, we may be their children but we don’t remember everything. We just can’t seem to break through.”
    “You are powerful,” Calli said slowly and looked at Kade who was nodding. “You all basically elected us as Alphas and realistically you should be leaders.”
    “Why?” Pilar said. “The fates chose that. We are all Alphas and strong, I mean we have to be. That is not the point, the point is, you are our leader.”
    “I am not worried about being a leader. You know how I feel about that to begin with. My concern is that because of our assumptions the wrong person is in the Alpha’s position. It could harm the future as well, you know that,” Kade said quietly.
    “Trust me, you are the ones who should be in the Alpha seat,” Blackie said and laughed. “Hell, it's since I have been here, that I have actually been able to concentrate and not think for every second that I am missing something. I don’t know how to explain it, but Gio and I both agree we need to be here.”
    “Oh good,” Calli muttered.
    “We need to figure out what the hell is going on around here though. We can’t remain divided, it is what the Prentiss wants,” Kade said.
    “At least we agree about that,” Pilar said.
    “For now, we need to work on mending fences and also figure out where the other books and people are. We are never going to be able to win if we don’t figure out what we are looking for.” Kade sighed.
    “Come on,” Calli said. “We all are going to celebrate the mating of Pilar, Calix, and Brooks. We will continue as we mean to go on. If anything else is remembered, it is brought right to us. We will be working together from here on out.”
    “I agree,” Pilar said and looked around the room. “We need to get on with it.”

    “Where did you get the wine, it is amazing,” Cherri said to Gio who was sipping a glass, as were the others.
    “Every once in a while I get a box of it delivered. Somehow they know where I am, I had it tested, it is always fine. It is one of the best,” Gio muttered.
    “Weird,” Kade said.
    “I agree, but why question it. I mean, I'm pretty sure it is someone who is helping us.” Gio shrugged.
    “Add it to our other unsolved mysteries.” Kiki laughed.
    “Great,” Gio said.
    “We are celebrating our newest mating and member of the Drekinn,” Kade said, drawing attention to
