For weeks, Vera and her pack have been spending time together, getting to know each other in plenty of ways, but now it's time for the next step, how they're going to combine their jobs with their new pack life... After the news that Vera and Mathew's pregnancies are going well, the pack finally seems to be able to think of the future. If they're going to leave the world a better place for the next generation, they've got a lot of work ahead of them and most of it won't be easy. Tension builds in the pack as Mathew prepares to go on his first mission in months, joined by Riley, so she can test how well she works together with Mathew's team. In theory, it should be a simple job, sneak into the research complex, grab some samples and get back out. But something doesn't feel right. No matter how well Mathew and his team prepare, it's like they're missing crucial information, like someone is hiding something from them. This unease is making Jorge and Mathew clash over and over, though, after Mathew's strong warning, Jorge doesn't try to stop him again. To keep the peace in the pack, Vera takes Jorge out for a movie and dinner on the night of the mission, so Mathew and Riley can leave without any more arguments and with all the calm and focus they'll need. Everything goes smoothly, until Vera disappears from Jorge's side as they walk through a busy street and Mathew finds much more at the complex than he bargained for...
