(Epilogue of the Wolves Haven/Wolves Peak/ Fangs Vegas Crossover)

The following morning in Wolves Haven as Max spoke "Lilly what is going on" as Sally and Max seen Jack and Rose helping Lillian packing her clothing and other bags "you… you are not leaving us so soon are you…" "Max, Sally you… your family and friends helped me so much these last few days…." "We thought you would stay until…" "Look I… I made promises back home in Vegas I… I can’t renegotiate now…" Paul spoke "we only care that you are leaving so quickly" as Rose spoke "Uncle said we are ready whenever you are…"

"So, you plan on going back to…" "Vegas yes" Lillian spoke. "My friends they… they want me back… to come home" as Paul smiled "tell my god grandson and his wife" as he paused "will you tell them we send our love to them" as Paul and Britt hugged Lillian tightly "just listen to them and we will see you go far my dear sister of the moon" as Britt cried, "we are going to miss you here…" "I will tell them both your message thank you again for showing me the way" as Brittney smiled "we only nudged it was all upon you..." "where is Barb and the others if I might ask" as Brittney smiled "I think they are trying to rest their auras it happens from time to time but they are ok and will be back upon their feet in no time flat just you be safe..."

Lillian smiled "who knows I might come back around if you allow it…" "Allow it" Max spoke "Lilly you are welcomed to come here anytime you and your wolf needs" as everyone in town gathered around but quickly silenced as Charles and Bonnie walked up with Janice and Josephina in tow…

"Is it true you are returning to Vegas…?" "Yes, your Highness…" "please spare me the Highness role Goddess of the Gray…" As Lillian replied "please I… I may be the reincarnated form of our Queen Lagatha but… but I am not the goddess" as Bonnie spoke "call me Bonnie then" as Lilly hugged her friend and sister of the moon as Lilly spoke "call me Lilly and thank you all of you for helping me find my balance…"

"Sister of the moon I… I know you told us you don’t deserve the rank of…" "I don’t" Lilly replied "it isn’t my place to rule when there is a true ruler in place Bonnie, I have devout faith in you granted you are young but you know the pack life better than me…" "that is why I am making my motives clear our packs, our meetings it… it wasn’t by chance it was led by Luna herself…" "I… I don’t follow" Lilly spoke back as Bonnie held her hand gently….

"Ladies and Gentlemen let it be known from this day forward as Queen of the Gray I bestow upon you the title and rank of Alpha…" "wait no I... I can’t do that I don’t know where to start…" "yes you can Lilly you and your wolf can do anything you two set your minds too" as Zach and Danielle spoke "it is a great honor for you…" "Honor I don’t know…" Charles came up "I know it is a shock but others out there they don’t know places like ours exist…"

"I… I can spread the word to those I can find but Alpha look at me" as Paul spoke back "I was ill equipped to run this place as Alpha and made a few mistakes along the way before Max and Sally took their rightful place as town Alpha and Beta of the pack" as the immortal Rose spoke "the other wolves you run into will not take you seriously if…" "what is the role of Alpha if I might ask" as Paul and Max spoke together as one "being the head of home of your pack as you set the ground rules and laws for your pack, your family if you choose to allow it to grow past you…" "but also being kind and caring of those under you and understand their pain…."

Lillian spoke "I… I can relate that I remembered that night when I first turned it… it felt like my body…" "because you fought against the changes" Janice and Josephina spoke out of turn as Bonnie spoke. "Cousins be silent will you" as they bowed their heads as Rose and Jack watched on as Jack held his nieces’ hand tightly but firm…

"I... I don’t know where to start" as Sally spoke back "that is why we need eyes and ears like yours and since you are a musician you do travels right…" "but… but I would have to produce an album promote it how can I…" Brittney spoke back "the title of Alpha means no matter where you go what ever you do other wolves will not dare strike a true alpha leader…" "so you are saying I could use my connections as a singer songwriter traveling the globe and find these others while running my own in Vegas but I... I am only one…."

Bonnie spoke "that is why I am ordering my cousins to return with you to Vegas…." "WAIT WHAT Bonnie we… we can’t you need us here" Janice and Josephina spoke in tears… "Josie, Janice listen to me I love you two but you made this mess now you must own it to help her, to guide her and her wolf we would go but our place is here to rebuild" as Lilly spoke "Bonnie what you are asking of them to do is to be slaves to my…"

"Mistress of The Grey please" as both Josie and Janice knelt down please "forgive us let us help you for, we owe our lives to you" as Rose Kelly spoke in Lilly’s ear "you know these two feel bad that they placed you…" "I know but who am I to make them subservient under my rule of thumb…" "It is your call" Rose Kelly spoke as Jack Franks smiled back, "I trust in your decision dear…"

"Josephina, Janice look at me both of you" as both raised their head in tears "tell me why I should allow you to accompany me back to Vegas in your own hearts and words does anyone including you Bonnie have a problem with what I request of these two Greys…."

"Mistress of the Gray we…" "we didn’t know both our bloodlines would…" "would make you reborn as the Gods of our pack we…" "we were only trying to save your life…" "and I thank you and forgive you upon that, I know I said things hurtful things against both of you and if you two shall accompany me back to Vegas what will you two do…" "besides serving you every waking moment Mistress return to work help those in the medical field our old lives haven’t been burned unless you decide otherwise Mistress…"

"About serving me every moment I don’t ask for slaves but I will allow you two to guide me, train me to be Alpha material but that does not mean you wait upon me hand and foot or in our cases paws…" "but we shall protect you" Janice spoke "in honor will you allow us to come with you if we stay here don’t get us wrong this is home but we… we too see ghosts…"

"Ghosts… ghosts of whom my dear…" "our fallen that’s why we ran" as Rose said "you know having these two on your side would help the three of you mend your wounds inside and out and plus you wouldn’t be alone in the woods" as Lilly smiled "very well Arise you two you may accompany me back home under three very distinct rules and they must be followed by the letter do you understand me" as Janice moaned "YESSSS MISTRESS" as Josephina Cried, "WE LIVE TO SERVE YOU MISTRESS…"

"First rule don’t call me Mistress in public or in human form it makes me feel uncomfortable in my human hybrid form then you can" "Yes Miss… we meant Lillian…" "please call me Lilly…" "Yes, Lilly" as she spoke "you know before I used to hate that namesake as it made me sound bimboish…" "but now" Rose smiled back as Lilly snickered "ok Esther…" "you bitch" Rose spoke back giggling as Janice and Josephina look up puzzled… "see if we are doing this you two have to seriously lighten up…."

"Second Rule no matter what you do not repeat the process you two did to me do I make myself crystal clear unless I give you pacific orders to do so…" "Yes Lilly we… we…" "you didn’t let me finish" Lilly spoke back "think about this what would happen if you two repeated the process and you didn’t know the person was good or bad you two could have released a true monster upon the world…" "we didn’t think last time" Janice spoke "I… we promise you we will never do it again" as Josephina cried "we only did what mother and father would have done…" "and I commend you for it but you also got to think before you act that’s all I am saying" as Josephina wiped the tear from her eyes….

Others spoke as Zoey said "why is she asking this much of them" as Max said "because as Alpha gaining two members this quick, she has to put her foot down dear like we do here" as Zoey and Sabrina smiled back "it is our way of life my love" as Zoey smiled back looking at the two women she considered her new friends accept their fates….

"Number three is if I ask of you any and all advice, I want it to be from the heart no matter how raw it is I want you both to object if I am being led astray…" "we will try our best Lilly can we…" "alright get up" as both Janice and Josie hugged their mistress "Hey… hey cut that out" as both women straighten up… "baby steps ok you and I are new to this" as they seen Bonnie and Charles and their remaining Grays alongside Sonya, Sally and Zoey standing there…

"This isn’t… isn’t goodbye" as Bonnie cried "no we will see one another again isn’t that right…" as the familiar packs all gathered around, "we will miss you two here but home is always here no matter how far you travel" as Josie and Janice cried "Charles you… you take good care of her and your children" pointing to Bonnie as he spoke back "everything, I do is for them all" as Luna came out holding three to four boxes as Lilly spoke back "what are these for…"

Luna spoke "we the pack want to give you a few sets of our suits that we use to protect ourselves the material will stretch to your wolves’ size and length each and will act like a second skin body armor just in case you cross hunters or other threats" as Lilly spoke "are you sure you don’t…" "we have plenty" Luna smiled "and besides I think you might like the suit covering the places you cherish most upon you reverts…"

Lilly spoke "you know before I wasn’t too keen waking in the woods butt ass naked but now" as Rose spoke "or waking up behind a thrift shop dumpster…" "Hush you" making Lilly blush "thank you Luna, guys we will put these to very good use" as Wrecker spoke back "sure you will Wrecking Ball…" "hey that’s misses wrecking ball to you remember I can take your ass now" as Jack spoke "ladies are we…" as Lilly spoke "I… I promise I will return to show you all my…" "Just go you got a long drive ahead of you" as Jack spoke, "I’ll drive first leg…"

"LIKE HELL YOU WILL" both Lilly and Rose spoke back as Lilly spoke "Janice, Josie will you please make sure Mr. Franks here is comfortable and make sure he takes his meds he is still suffering from the concussion he got in Wyoming…" "sure thing Lilly" as Rose snatched the keys "do you mind if I drive" as Lilly said "don’t mind if you do as long as I get shotgun" as the fivesome gathered into the large truck…

Max and the others smiled "Suki, Patty continue your rounds, Hunter, Tina will you Bonnie, Charles, Dani and Savannah take west quad… Zoey, Sabrina, follow your mother and father take the north end make sure the foxes and ox’s are fed" as they smiled "sure thing alpha" as Sally and Dawn smiled seeing the back end of the pickup truck silently driving off as their family resumed their mission in life to help those who needs to learn control of their wolfish impulses and learn how to hunt as a pack as Peace once fell again upon the sleepy little district of Wolves Haven Animal Rescue shelter….
