Chapter 0379
On Sunday, our friends left after breakfast. Angel and Cara were excited about the garden and wanted to
purchase sof the fruits and vegetables when they are harvested. It’s another way the pack can make some
money and Victoria and Ivy are already making plans to expand the garden. They were part of the group that
wanted a store on our new ‘main street’, although they want theirs to be mostly an open-air market
environment.
Grace, Amber and Noah picked up segg-laying hens. They seem to like their new living arrangements. It will
take a few days for them to adjust, but we've assigned sof the older pups to watch out for them, feed them
and let them graze in a fenced in area every day. We started with 30 hens, we'll see how many eggs they can
produce, but | think that Grace is already working on a plan for bring in more for the pack. If we produce an
excess, we can sell the extras in the market.
On Monday, Perry shows up with a crew and we get started with the morning shift. We had to divide everyone
into shifts so that we can continue to manage the pack, run patrols and basically not shut down the operation of
the pack. So, Carlos and | spent Sunday afternoon revising teams into 6-hour shifts for both construction and

duties. Carlos insisted he be included in the rotation and while he can’t shift, he still manages to keep up with

handy more than once.
In addition, we're still managing 5 hours of training each day. I've assigned Carlos to train the pack members
that can’t shift, whether they are too young, too old or pregnant. He is working with them on learning to throw
knives and shoot arrows. Ever since our attack by hunters, we want to be ready and ensure that the pack feels
confident in their ability to fight off anyone that comes into our territory. Noah and | run the morning training
with most of the other pack members and Carlos joinsin the afternoon for warrior and tournament training.
To say it's a lot and | fall into bed exhausted every day would be an understatement. Sdays it’s all | can do
to pull my mate againstbefore | fall asleep.
Over the next two weeks, the pack, with Perry and his crews’ oversight, demolish the rest of the homes that
could not be saved. Five houses that were in various states of rebuilding are completed except for things like
painting and trims. After
getting my first paycheck from Liam, | was able to buy several different colors of paint for the houses, letting the
pack members decide on their own internal and
external colors. Spack members chose to buy their own and make their homes feel more personal or
eclectic. The general attitude of hap“?

I'm looking over our financials getting ready for our trip back to Canyon Ridge to meet King Ailduin, the Fae King,
who is chronicling the Guardians lives and has been for a couple of centuries. Yes, centuries. He's over two
hundred years old.
Liam was right about paying back the loan. He's waiting to order supplies until we need them, and it allows the
pack to repay the loan almost immediately. I'm feeling much better about this process, especially since more and
more pack members have ideas for buildings they want to build.
On the Friday we are going back to Canyon Ridge, Grace and | are checking to make sure everything is set. We'll
be gone through the weekend again. We used the money Grace got from working for Liam to purchase food for
the pack. It’s been great to finally feed everyone the amount of food that they need, especially when we are
working everyone so hard. Our hunters are still going out to catch wild game, but we can supplement that with
other food now too, making it last longer. Grace's hens have started laying eggs as well, so eggs with breakfast
is now a daily occurrence. I've also noticed that Cammy is using sof the fruit that has been harvested and is
making jams and jellies.
Sirona is using her money to supply the pack hospital with medical supplies and Amber has used hers to buy
material that Anna used to sew her, Hope and Carlo smuch needed clothes. Overall, it feels that the pack is
really starting to ctogether.
