I'm so proud of my pack. The gift that they are giving their ranked females speaks volumes about their feelings
toward our pack. It’s a good thing and reinforces what we are doing here, creating this place for those that have
nowhere else to go.
Liam, Angel and Liam's foreman, Perry, arrive just before lunch. Grace and | meet them out front as they arrive
and lead them to a table on the back pawe had set up for lunch. Noah and Sirona join us.
“Dr. Phillips, how have you settled in?” Liam asks her.
“Sirona please, Alpha. And very well. It's very exciting what we are planning to create here. I'm glad to be a part
of it.” She tells him.
“If you decide you want to cback to the easy life, our pack is always open to you.” He says and Angel

“What are your plans, Sirona?” Angel asks her and she launches into her ideas of how to rebuild the pack
hospital. Perry is paying attention and making notes on his clipboard.
After lunch, Noah and | take Perry and Liam on a tour of the pack lands and the buildings that need to be built.
We start with the pack hospital, and | can see the wheels turning in Perry’s head. From there, we go around to
the houses that are in various stages of completion, the ones that are being torn down for refurbishment and the
areas where we are keeping the reusable materials.
Perry walks up to the materials, lifting sof the pieces and looking them over with a critical eye. “You've done
a great job here. These are good materials and if we use them, it will reduce the overall cost of rebuilding,
lowering the materials we will need to buy.” He says, nodding his head, making a note on his clipboard as we
walk along.
When we're done, we meet Carlos in his office and sit down to discuss the plan. We get an anticipated cost,
which makes my stomach twist into a knot.
“I know a lot, but remember, you're rebuilding an entire pack. If
it sounds like you break it down into a price per house, including the pack hospital and the packhouse, it's really
not that much. You and your pack members will more than be able to repay that loan through this process.” Liam
says to me.
“Okay, so what's the plan?” | ask.

It's Perry that answers my question. “We'll start on Monday. I'd like to have two crews, one for demolition and
one for rebuilding. Once the demolition is. complete, we'll put that crew on rebuilding as well. We'll focus on the
houses that are in process first, get those knocked out quickly and then begin building the others.” He stops,
looking over his notes.

“I do have one other suggestion, if you don’t mindsaying.” He says, looking up at me.
“Of course.”
He looks down at his notes again. “Other than the pack hospital and packhouse, you haven't allotted any space
or tfor building other structures, such as restaurants, clothing stores, florists, anything that your pack would
want or need to run a business on pack lands. It may not be something that you've thought of, but I'd suggest
talking to your pack and seeing if any of them have skills that would warrant a storefront. You're not so far from
Canyon Ridge or Shadow Falls that those packs wouldn't cto shop here or bring their mates and kids for a
meal. Just a thought.”
It's a good thought and one | had not considered. It's been so long since either Grace or | have lived in a pack
that we didn’t think about having a place for our pack members to work on the pack lands, but it’s how many
other packs sustain themselves.
“I'll speak to the pack about it. Thank you, Perry.”
