Alina’s POV It had been barely two weeks since I arrived at my new park and everything was going smoothly until Zack and his men showed up in my pack that evening. He never called, nor texted me that he was coming to my pack. I was surprised when I heard his car drive in and stop at the parking lot. “What are you doing here?” I asked, keeping my face cold on my voice firm. “You don’t just come to my pack like it belongs to you.”“I am sorry, I should have informed you, but your number never connected and I thought it was just supposed to pay you a surprise visit,” Zach replied. “Well… I don’t like your surprises and please leave!” I yelled at him. He immediately turned towards his driver, James. They nodded and James without delay, horridly went back to the car and returned with a banquet of flowers.The banquet was filled with roses and it was just as I liked them. I didn’t act like mine, I pretended and looked away, tr
Alpha Zach’s POV I didn’t attend the meeting immediately, I waited till it was dark, and the moon was up in the sky. I had to look up a better story to tell the elders else they might just think I was going weak and that would be a threat to my position as an alpha. I drove straight to the hall myself, and when I got there, they were all gathered, sitting around the big table that was in the middle of the hall. The hall was covered with murmurs, although I couldn’t hear properly. But I knew one thing and that was the fact that they were talking about me. Before I took a seat, I looked around the table and watched every man in their eyes, thinking about how they had one way or the other helped the pack. My mind was racing and that was because I didn’t want to see betrayal coming from them because the way Jason had sounded earlier, it was too alarming to just sit and watch them make decisions.Finally, I took my seat, and beside me, was Jason on my right. I drummed my fingertips ag
Alpha Zach’s POVAlina was finally well again, and she was seated with me in my chambers. I have tried to speak with her separately concerning the attack that happened at the pack boundary, but she still wouldn’t say anything.But to an extent, I wondered what she had gone to the north boundary to do because I had never expected to be in that place when she knew how much Alpha Kayden had haunted our pack territories.“The man who attacked me was fast and I couldn’t even see their face because they wore a mask,” Bella muttered. “The person who had sent them wanted me gone for good.”She tried to sound convincing, but I couldn’t just trust her because I knew her too well and how she could frame stories just to make this go according to our plan.“This is not something we should joke about, We have been hearing alarming complaints recently, and yet there are no traces of any of the sources where the problem was coming from.”The look on Bella‘s face didn’t seem like she was interested in
Alina’s POVI didn't know if I would give my father the idea to allow my son to stay behind while I travel to Nova City.Roy was all I was living for and I didn't think I would even survive a day without him by my side. He was young and wouldn't be able to protect himself in case he got into danger.But I couldn't help the fact that I would prefer to see him playing around me.How long was this going to continue? I let out a heavy breath and then turned towards my father, my eyes locked in his. And that was because I wanted him to change his mind on what he had said.But they looked in his eyes, stated otherwise and the next thing, he stepped back, crossing his arms. “It’s for the best.”“No, it’s not,” I replied almost immediately, my voice louder this time. “He’s my son. I’m his mother. He should be with me.”“Roy is already growing without a father and you still expect me to take away my presence from him? I can't watch him grow without a mother too?” I added.“This isn't about gro
Alina’s POVI didn't know why it was so difficult for everyone to believe me. Did they think I would go back to Zach? I remembered how I spent years and wasted months together with him hoping that he would one day come back to his senses, but he never did.I stood by the window side in my father's grand living room, staring at the tall trees that were just beside the pack house.My heart was still racing in pain even as I tried to stay calm. I sighed and folded my hands against each other, my head clouded with frustration.“I don’t want to be with Zach again,” I said sharply, not turning to face my father.He was sitting on the couch in the living room and with the way he looked at me, I knew he still didn't believe me, not even for a second.I didn't blame him for his decision because I didn't believe myself either and it was easier to lie down to face the messy truth that I was trying to hide from everyone.Because deep inside of me, I knew I had a soft spot for Zach but I was just
Alpha Zach’s POVThe next morning, I was with the patrol team, going around the different areas of the pack. I could have sat behind and waited for the report but I wasn't ready to listen to all the nonsense Bella was going to say.She left my office early the previous day and promised to return because she never liked any of the replies I gave to her.But that didn't bother me, her words were full of threat and I was only scared that she wouldn't execute them.I could have sent her away and made sure that she doesn't return. But then, I had only left her in the pack for a reason and I just hope she wouldn't get too deep in my nerves.She might end up leaving me with no choice and I would have to do what I should do to make sure my family is safe. I could have sent Jason, my beta to watch over her but I felt something was off and due to the fact of his unavailability.He was busy just like I was and I couldn't blame him for that. The aim was to make sure the pack was safe and he was
