Chapter 125
My mother shook her head in disgust. “All those students.” She couldn’t hold back her anger.
“I’ll transfer you the money.” My father was about to hang up, but I had to stop him.
“Daddy? Can you round it up to five million?”
I could picture him throwing his head back, and his laughter rang through the phone. “Why?”
“Because. I have a plan. I want to make a few investments. That way, I can pay back the pack and handle the rest of the cost for the next four years at university.”
My father’s laughter grew even more. “Smart girl. I did the same thing.” I knew he was talking about his investments he made when I was a kid. Everyone thought be was just making just good decisions, but he knew how it would turn out.
A second chance at life does that. But remembering everything is hard, and he took a few hits. But now, now it was my turn to use my first life to my benefit.
“Yeah.” I smiled.
“Ronnie will send it over right now.”
“Thank you, daddy.”
“You are welcome, pup. I love you.”
“I love you too.” I hung up the phone and turned to Mrs. Sandlewood. “Okay. So I am super sorry, but I think this will be a lot of work for you.” I grimaced, but she smiled.
“This is something I am more than happy to do.” She ran to the filing cabinet and grabbed stacks of papers. “This is going to take a while. I can load all the cards, assign them to each student, and then have you pay before I activate them all.”
“Sounds good.” I stood. “I also want one hundred thousand on my card. That way, if I need to do something, I have the extra money I need, and if it rolls over, so be it.”
Mrs. Sandlewood jotted down a note and nodded. “Okay. Give me probably an hour. Go look for your classes, your dorm, check everything out and then head on back. We can process everything then.”
“Okay.” I grabbed my purse. And my mother stood up. We walked out of the office and found Vince standing outside of the glass. “Hello Alpha Vince.” I smiled up at him.
“Hello Amy.” His voice held barely contained rage. “Hello Ainsley.”
“Alpha.” My mother smiled as we skirted him and continued down the corridor. Once we were a ways a way, my mother turned to me and she smirked. “He was livid. Did you see the vein pulsing in his forehead?”
“I did.” I laughed as we walked out of the main building. “Lets go find the students bringing people around. We can have them show us around.”
“Sounds good.” My mom wrapped her arm around mine as we walked towards the dorms. We walked around the campus, searching for the correct building, when we turned a corner and saw a few people sitting at a table with a sign.
I pulled my mother towards the desk, and the smiling girl sitting there. “Hi there.”
“Hey.” I gave a small wave. “We are looking for a guide.”

The cute girl smiled wider. “You came to the right place.” She looked down at her clipboard. “What is your name?”
“Amy Maclean.” I smiled at the few others standing around.
The girl’s smile faltered. “You are an Alpha.”
“Yes.” I tried to meet her eyes, but she wouldn’t look at me anymore. “Is there something wrong?”
“No.” She rushed. “Not at all.” She smiled, but it felt forced “Clint. Another Alpha for you to bring around.” A big man, obviously Clint, stood and walked over to us.
“Clint?” I started and put my hand out.)
“Yes Alpha. I’m Beta Clint from the Shadowclaw pack back east.”
“Nice to meet you, Beta. How’s your father?” I smile as I pulled back my hand.
Clint stumbled over his words. “My father?”
“Yeah Clive. How’s your father? Last I saw him, he was set on retiring and taking your mom on a travel vacation.”
Clint’s eyes widened. “You know my dad?”
“Of course I do. My father always brought me to the alpha summits where I would get to meet everyone.” I raised my shoulder. “Your father was always super nice to me, and didn’t treat me as ‘some alpha‘. He saw me, if you know what I’m saying.”
Clint smiled. “Yeah. Yeah, I do. He was always an amazing dad.”
“Was?”
Clint cleared his throat. “Him and my mother died last year after the summit. They left for their first vacation. My dad called it my training. And then they were just gone.” Clint rubbed the back of his head. “And I inherited the beta roll.” 3
“I’m sorry. I know there is no way to make it any better, but your dad always talked about you. He was very proud of the man you were becoming and he was confident in you taking over his position.”
Clint nodded, then gestured towards the building. “Let’s go”
