James's POV
Beta Legolas approached me while I was standing, listening to Emily's ramblings with twenty new members of the pack. I wasn't paying much attention; I mean, Simon was the one paying attention. My true self was still confused and saddened by not being able to protect any of my members.
"Alpha James, if you don't mind, the other members would like to meet you before they leave the pack," Beta Legolas whispered to me, and my response was, of course, to say yes, but what happened?
"I don't want to meet them. Trash like them should have left here long ago, never to return, and take their belongings with them, don't talk too much."
That was not the answer I ever wanted to come out of my mouth. I tried to take control of my body, but the result was a failure. Even Beta Legolas couldn't believe my answer.
"So, you really don't want to meet them?" Beta Legolas asked me again.
