The Ransom

There were times when even an alpha gets nervous. Kate is no exception. Her pups have just been puppy-napped. She was currently being comforted by Humphrey, who had just woken up, and Sara while Justin was pacing around the den.

"This is my fault," Justin said, "I should have been there."

"No, it's mine," Humphrey said, "I should have kept a better guard over myself.

"I disagree," Sara said, "I should never have joined.

Kate said still sobbing, "It's no one's fault. None of you knew this would have happened, and there was nothing Humphrey could have done."

There was silence. Finally, Justin said, "She's right, no one knew this would happen, and Sara made the right decision by joining our pack- wait a minute…"

"What," Sara asks.

"I think I knew who puppy-napped the pups."

"Who," Kate asks.

Suddenly, Hutch walks up. Justin walks up to Hutch. "What is it?"

"Cain is here. He demands a meeting with Kate and Sara immediately."

Soon, everyone meets up with Cain. Justin was growling at Cain. Kate was still trying to keep her emotions in check before asking, "What business do you have here?"

"I want to demand Sara's paw in marriage," Cain says.

"What makes you think that she will," Justin asks.

"I know what you are like," Sara says.

"Fine," Cain says, "Then you shall be the one who cost Kate her pups."

"What," all but Justin say in unison.

"YOU MONSTER," Justin shouts.

"Your choice Sara; either marry me, or Kate will never see her pups again…"


Lancewing: I have to admit, Cain can really be annoying...

Lancewing: I hope the pups get rescued too... Also, don't forget about chapter nine.
