The next day was a jumble of chaos and commotion. Turk answered questions, made requests, gave orders, and only slightly got angry at others for things. The workers prepared a large dinner for the celebration, getting preferences from Mazelina was to what she liked, and confirmed everything with Turk as a precaution.
Turk went over the ceremony with Rudi and Anju to make sure they understood the positions they were to be in and the small detail of Mazelina's bond issue with the pack. When finished, he pulled the female aside and spoke in a low voice. "I am going to rely on you to help Mazelina understand what's happening and why. You seem to have befriended her nicely so I think she'll trust you."
Anju thought for a moment, probably thinking their little skirmish was not any way to form a bond, but she did like the other female. "I wouldn't lay all your hopes on me, Alpha. I think when it really comes down to it, your the only one she would go to."
