<b>Chapter </b>442
(Demetri’s POV)
“I guess the best ce to start is approximately where I stopped, Cole was a week or so from turning twenty–one <b>and </b><b>I </b>was a month from turning neen.” Jamison starts slowly.
“You said that you were twenty–one when you got here in January. When is your birthday?” I interrupt, confused by the
time difference between them.
“Sorry alpha, I tend to move my age up once I hit the new year. I turned twenty–one on March 1st.” I nod as <b>I </b>apologize for interrupting.
“I imagine it would be confusing since I said he was eighteen and I was fifteen when he moved in. I’m not certain why I didn’t say sixteen as my birthday was only two weeks away when dad finally won and he was allowed to leave the pack
house<b>.</b>”
He stops to take a drink of water in front of the same window Cole looked out of when he was talking to me months ago.
“So I guess thest time he came to us after he left was just before he turned twenty<b>–</b><b>one</b>. Even though the <b>prospect </b>program allows wolves as young as eighteen to join as long as they havepleted their own pack’s training program,
Alpha Redmen refused to allow Cole to join.
I remember ?ole telling me how frustrating it was to beg his dad to let him join and the variety of <b>reasons </b>he was given for not being allowed to go so it was a really big thing for him to finally get permission to go to another pack for training<b>. </b>He was so hopeful that getting into the prospect program would be the key he needed to get out from under his father’s control.”
“All three of you have admitted that Cole has never gone through Red Fang’s training program so it would be expected that he would not be allowed to join as you are correct. Only the fastest learners will start at eighteen and no one is to start until they havepleted the advanced training sequence given by the council to every pack that joins the program.”
“If the council is responsible for setting the criteria for the minimum amount of advanced training a prospect needs to have, why does every pack have a different testing and training program?”
“Each pack has a minimum criteria that they must meet for them to take in prospects. They actually go through more scrutiny on their training and testing techniques than those who simply send prospects out.”
“Well that might exin why no one from Red Fang has been selected for a second run.”
“What do you mean no one has ever been selected?”
“I actually started the prospect program at the same time Cole did. I never had a chance to tell him that I was scheduled to go to the Red mountain pack. Dad was the only one to speak to him that night <b>he </b>came back and told us he was going to fight his own battles.”
“Jamie?”
He flinches hard but doesn’t look away from the window when I fail to hide the warning toneced within n
“I’m sorry alpha. Although I’ve been scheduled to go to four runs over thest two years, I’ve only been to two different packs before yours. Each pack had a different set up for testing and training, different rules and punishments. Each time
Chapter <b>442 </b>
I’ve been scheduled for a run, I move into the pack house and I noticed that all the same wolves tend to <b>go </b>on <b>each </b><b>run </b>
<b>“</b>You think that’s because of their training?”
“I’m not certain. I’ve always believed it was because of the rumors and the fact that a lot of our males can’t leave the females alone but with your mention of minimum standards set by the council it may be just a failure in training
“That is possible and to go back to your question, now that you answered mine or at least tried, each pack tailors their program to what they need to bring in. If they need upper level wolves to defend their border then that’s what they request and the council sends out assignments to the alphas involved in that half of the program.”
“So Alpha Redmen didn’t choose the packs Cole went to?”
Now it seems I’ve caught his attention even though we’re now way off subject<b>. </b>
