Werewolf and 90 Summary
In the West Wing, tensions among the Elders are rising due to their enforced confinement, leading to a sense of unease that permeates the air. After a meeting, a group of Elders is directed toward their quarters, while some attempt to voice their frustrations, only to be met with the Guardians’ stoic silence. Elder Dawn, feeling anxious about a recently discovered item from her sanctuary, is closely followed by her father, Irvine, who senses the weight of her concerns and fears the implications of their secret stash being uncovered.
As they retreat to Dawn’s room, she reveals a hidden door in her closet that is shockingly empty, heightening Irvine’s anxiety about the potential exposure of his deception against the Royal family. They discuss the possibility of sneaking into Elder Zane’s room to investigate another hiding place, but realize the Guardians’ watchful presence makes this nearly impossible. Their mental connection reveals a sense of urgency as they devise a plan to access Zane’s quarters while recognizing the constant surveillance they are under.
Meanwhile, Captain Vern and the Guardians are focused on documenting the movements of the Elders, unaware of the critical discussions happening behind closed doors. Belinda, one of the Guardians, reports on the Elders’ confinement, noting that several are locked away, making it impossible for the Guardians to eavesdrop on their conversations. The Guardians remain indifferent to the Elders’ discussions, concentrating solely on their duty to protect the Royal family.
Amidst this tension, a conversation arises about Tammy, a Guardian’s granddaughter awaiting a death sentence for disrespecting the Queen. This revelation stirs unease among the Shifters, leading to speculation about the significance of Tammy’s actions and the potential consequences. One elder firmly defends Tammy, asserting her loyalty to the Queen, while another expresses concern about the future of the Kingdom, hinting at deeper implications that leave the gathering in confusion and speculation about the true nature of their circumstances.

**TITLE: Werewolf and 90**
**CONTENT: No Answer**
**West Wing**
It doesn’t take a master strategist to perceive the simmering discontent among the Elders regarding their enforced confinement. The air is thick with unspoken grievances, and the tension is palpable.
As the meeting adjourns, a throng of Elders is herded toward the West Wing. A few brave souls attempt to voice their objections, but the Guardians remain resolutely silent, their expressions betraying nothing.
Five families make their way into the expansive living room, while the others disperse, following the Elders of their respective clans to their designated quarters. These rooms are reserved for the Elders’ late-night deliberations or the rare occasions when dawn finds them still awake.
Elder Dawn moves purposefully toward her room on the upper floor, her father trailing closely behind her. A knot of anxiety twists in her stomach as she recalls the item that was discovered—an item she is certain was taken from her sanctuary. Yet, a nagging uncertainty lingers; had she been negligent in leaving it exposed?
“Dawn, what in the world is happening here?” Her father’s voice is a harsh whisper, laced with urgency as he shuts the door behind them. He can sense that something weighs heavily on his daughter’s mind, but he clings to the hope that it’s not as dire as her expression suggests.
“I’m not entirely sure. I thought I had hidden that book well enough,” she replies, her voice barely above a murmur. “But if they’ve uncovered our secret stash, we’re in a heap of trouble.”
A pallor washes over Irvine’s face at the mere thought of their hiding place being discovered. He knows all too well that the contents within could expose him for the deception he has orchestrated against the Royal family. Moreover, he is acutely aware of another hiding place that contains even more incriminating evidence against him, a thought that sends a shiver down his spine.
Dawn strides into the walk-in closet, and Irvine’s jaw drops in disbelief as she reveals the hidden door. To his horror, it stands completely empty; not a single scrap of paper remains.
“Is there any way we can sneak into Elder Zane’s room to investigate that other hiding spot?” Irvine queries, his voice tinged with desperation. “I have no idea if he even knows about it; his father never mentioned it to me.”
“I doubt it’s possible, but it’s worth a shot. Let’s go see him; perhaps I can coax him out of his room,” Dawn suggests, her determination shining through. Without waiting for his agreement, she flings open the door, only to find a Guardian standing sentinel in the hallway.
The Guardian pays no heed to her startled squeal, stepping aside with a stoic expression, his gaze fixed firmly on the wall ahead. It’s not his responsibility to put her at ease; rather, he is there to ensure she understands the reality of her situation—there will always be eyes upon her, a constant reminder of her confinement.
Irvine and Dawn swiftly grasp the extent of the Guardians’ watchfulness; they are scattered strategically throughout the West Wing, their vigilance unwavering.
“This isn’t going to work. There are too many eyes on us. We need to retreat to your room,” Irvine conveys through their mental connection. “We have to devise a plan to gain access to Elder Zane’s quarters.”
Captain Vern had issued stringent directives via the mind-link during their approach to the West Wing; every Guardian is required to document the movements of the Elders and their families meticulously. Belinda is diligently recording each report, and it becomes increasingly evident that most Elders seem unfazed by the Guardians’ presence.
“Anything unusual?” Captain Vern inquires, noticing Belinda’s focused gaze on her latest report.
“Yes, Elder Dawn and her father locked themselves in her room. They emerged just moments ago, strolled down the hallway, and returned straight to Elder Dawn’s chamber. I’ve already informed Princess Dallas about it,” Belinda replies, her tone matter-of-fact.
Captain Vern probes further through the mind-link, asking if any other Elders are similarly confined. It turns out that four additional Elders are also locked away, while their families occupy the main living room below.
Given that all the rooms are soundproof, the Guardians have no means of eavesdropping on the discussions taking place within. Even if the soundproofing were absent, there’s a significant likelihood that the Elders are communicating via their mind-link, rendering any potential listening in futile.
The Guardians are indifferent to the conversations among the Elders; their sole focus is to fulfill their duty and safeguard the Royal family from any threats.

As they navigate the complexities of their roles, Irvine’s Mate turns to one of the Squad members, her brow furrowed in concern. “Have you seen Tammy around?”
“Who?” he replies, feigning ignorance, though he is acutely aware of who she refers to. He has no intention of divulging her whereabouts.
“She’s the one who disrespected the Queen and is now awaiting her death sentence. Tammy is her granddaughter, the daughter of former Elder Jeff, and I’m ashamed to admit it, a Guardian,” a voice interjects from the doorway, drawing the attention of those in the room.
A murmur of unease ripples through the gathering as they process this revelation. The Shifters exchange glances, recalling the last time King Vaughn had to remind certain women of their place after a similar affront to his Mate.
“My granddaughter would never disrespect our Queen,” an elderly woman asserts, her voice firm. “Tammy understands the significance of our Queen to King Vaughn and the invaluable lessons she can impart.”
All eyes turn toward Irvine’s Mate, perplexed by her assertions. Why would the Queen have any need to teach Tammy anything?
“My family is crucial to the survival of this Kingdom. Without us, there will be no Kingdom in the future. When that day arrives, I will take great pleasure in saying, ‘I told you so,'” she declares, her voice resolute as she strides out of the living room.
The room falls silent, all eyes following her as she ascends the staircase, murmurs of confusion and speculation filling the air as they attempt to decipher her cryptic remarks, but they find themselves at an impasse without further information.
Belinda’s gaze lingers on the men in the room, her mind racing as she reflects on the Squad member’s report and the Guardian’s comments.
“I hope Dallas can make sense of this because I’m utterly baffled. What on earth was she talking about?” Belinda wonders aloud, though she doesn’t expect an answer.
Even if she had posed the question to someone specific, she doubts she would have received any clarity.
