FAZER LOGINApril “What did he say?” I open the door to the office Beta Daniel is using, and get him to jerk out of his thoughts. He is sitting in the dark room, his index and thumb holding his chin. “What?” he asks, obviously taken by surprise. “What did Alpha Noah say?” I inquire again, taking a step into the room to close the door behind me. “Did he say when we can go home?” He sighs, rubbing his face with the palms of his hands. “No,” he just answers. Beta Daniel lets his hands slump on his thighs, turning his head to look outside the window. I press my lips together, holding my right elbow with my left hand to wait patiently for him to say something more, keeping myself from speaking again. “He said that we couldn’t get back. The lycans would never agree to that even if Alpha Scott would, and I have the feeling that he will lose it when you tell him that you want to leave.” He talks without looking at me, holding the gaze to roam the hills of the pack grounds. “I didn’t tell him that
April The dining hall is eerily quiet, and I wonder if everyone is just concentrated on not getting poisoned again. I push around the carrots lying on my plate, bored while Beta Daniel is typing on his phone. He furrows his brows over and over again, and I would bet that he is alternating between reacting to texts coming from his mate, Samantha, and messaging Alpha Noah. Even if I am dying to know what he is conversing with our Alpha about, I am way too exhausted to inquire about that. Daisy, who is also sitting at our small table, is practically lying in her chair, her eyes closing over and over again while she fights against the slumber getting the best of her. The other tables around us have to be the same, and I am worried that the warriors and nurses will have problems getting proper sleep as they fear another attack. We can’t be careful enough after what happened. I still didn’t have the chance to talk to Daisy about what happened with Alpha Scott, and the thought of him h
April I tried to be good and just sit tight. I really tried. But in the end, my nosiness won. And it’s totally not that I wanted to catch another glimpse of the General. Not at all. Ignoring my heart beating into the top of my throat, and dismissing the words of my guilty conscience, which keeps reminding me about how curiosity killed the cat, I leave the pack hospital. Wanting to reach the pack house with fast steps, I increase my pace, desperately going through possible excuses I could use to explain why I appear in the rooms of someone who is supposed to be my sworn enemy. Unfortunately, other than letting me think about me being indescribably stupid, my idiotic brain gives up on me. Running up the stairs, I get my pulse even to shoot higher, making my head spin. Not a good sign either. My panic must be already raging through my body to the extent that it affects my circulation, and this would be a problem. ‘You could just try to tell the truth,’ my wolf proposes, gushin
April My eyes jump back and forth, searching his eyes for any other emotion other than the pure hate that is slowly even pushing his rage out of his traits. ‘Stop it,’ my wolf whispers, and a strange sensation that must be coming from her makes my chest squeeze, my heart twisting. I gulp, fighting the tears wanting to shoot into my eyes. “You are lying,” I whisper. “You knew damned well that I didn’t do anything.” “You might have been able to fool my father and a few of my warriors because they were still blinded by the memories of their late beta, but I wasn’t that easy to scam, was I?” he mocks, straightening back up and putting his hands in his pockets. What an asshole. What a jerk. I can’t believe this guy. My adrenaline retreats, giving my panic the chance to spread, taking back control over my body. I suddenly feel like I am that little girl again, desperately fighting to get just a spark of his affection. What an idiot. Me and him, both. “That’s not true.” Is the onl
April “I beg your pardon?” General Alastor asks, taken aback, while Alpha Scott squirms his eyes. I open my mouth, but before I could answer the general’s question, Alpha Scott disrupts my attempt. “Just because you have some unsolved insecurities that you take up in a conflict with her does not give you the right to denigrate her,” Alpha Scott growls, getting the general to raise his brows when he looks at him. I gasp, shaking my head. “I am not trying to denigrate her. She poisoned me and all the pack members of the Black Amethyst Pack who came here with me.” Putting my hands on my hips, I stand confidently. “We have clear indicators for that, but you are just so caught up with her that you didn’t look into it properly. Did you even question her? Oh, I guess that she just couldn’t blink with her long eyelashes, and you would let it be. Why investigate something you don’t care about anyway?” “That is false. You are just doing this because you are jealous of her. Are you trying t
April “What the hell was that?” Alpha Scott shouts, clenching his fists. “And what is the purpose of all of this?” I am surprised that I don’t feel groggy because I was prepared to be torn back to the office in the pack hospital, or what I would rather assume to be the reality, feeling like I had been pulled out of a fever dream after my drink had been spiked. “This is not okay,” Alpha Scott rages further, only getting an annoyed glance from the general. “You are not allowed to interrogate people on my pack grounds without me being present.”“It was crucial that Dr. Angel felt comfortable enough to answer my questions truthfully and without any pressure that might have resulted from you being present. With all due respect, Alpha,” General Alastor explains, his tone clearly not as respectful as it should be meant to be. I bite my bottom lip just in time to prevent a gloating snicker from escaping my lips at seeing the general putting Alpha Scott in his place. Lowering my head, I

The sterile hallway of the hospital is full of scurrying nurses, stalking doctors, people visiting with sorrowful expressions hidden behind forced smiles, and patients trying to get a
