The following days were filled with pack duties; Damon and Aila had been non-stop, the only time to themselves was gone midnight, and by then, they only had time to snuggle in bed before exhaustion took them away to sleep. The burial was arranged, and the pack leaders held meetings to discuss their next course of action for the missing children, the pack's protection, the hunters, and the new werewolves they created.
However, their meetings were never long enough, abruptly finishing with Damon and Aila called to a new issue or discussing over the phone with other Alphas about possible leads on the children. Aila occasionally wondered if the tips were fake.
She discussed it with her mate after the fourth time in one day, they had left with thirty pack members to search for them in some new land or town. Damon agreed the leads weren't helpful, but what else could they do? They couldn't not follow it, in case it did lead somewhere.
