THE ALPHA’S DEBT 123
"Andrew, wait," I started, the image of that news article flashing in my mind like a warning flare. "In that photo from the bell-ringing... Quinn was bundled up in a heavy coat and a mask. I thought he just had a nasty flu and didn't want to infect the pack elders. He was always such a gentleman, looking out for others."I looked up at Andrew, my heart sinking. His face was a mask of jagged pain, his eyes darker than I had ever seen them."Was that a stand-in at the ceremony?" I whispered, the realization hitting me like a physical blow.Andrew nodded slowly. "NovaTech is the West family’s legacy. It’s the cornerstone of their territory's future. Quinn built that entire operation from nothing. If the news of his death had broken right before the launch, the pack would have been torn apart by rivals. His father, Martin, had to make a choice. He had to use a shadow-double to keep the peace.""But hiding the death of a territory leader... isn't that a violation of the Council's laws?""I

I sat there on the edge of the bed, gripping Andrew’s hand so tight my knuckles turned white. I wanted this—this moment of clarity—more than I had ever wanted anything in my life."Andrew," I pressed, my voice trembling but firm, "you told your mother that pup isn't yours. Can't you just lay it all out for me? No more riddles."Andrew’s jaw tightened, and he looked at me with a weary sort of frustration. "Is it really that vital, Lanka? The child isn't mine. You know that. It shouldn't change a single thing about our future."He was frowning, clearly hating the fact that we were even discussing this. To him, it was a closed case. The pup wasn't his, it wouldn't be living at Wolfe Crest, and he probably figured I’d find out the boring truth eventually once the baby was born.But the heat was rising in my chest, and I felt my nose go pink with a surge of anger. "The mere existence of that child is already tearing our lives apart! I’m your mate, Andrew. If you expect me to just stand by

Maren Cole’s face was a mask of cold fury as she stepped forward, reaching out to steady Lydiasa."Maren, I’m alright," Lydiasa whispered, though she made sure to look like she was leaning heavily on the older woman. "I just didn’t have a good grip on the bouquet.""I saw the whole thing, Lydiasa. And look at these flowers—completely destroyed. Does that look like a simple slip to you?" Maren stood like a shield in front of Lydiasa, her eyes boring into mine. "What was that pathetic display for? You will apologize to her, Lanka. Right now."I let out a short, sharp laugh. "Sorry, I’ve recently been diagnosed with 'Incapable of Apologizing' syndrome. There’s no cure, so don't hold your breath."Maren, already simmering with resentment at the mere sight of me back in Andrew’s life, felt her temper snap. She swung her hand in a wide arc, aiming a slap at my face. "Well, I think it’s time someone beat some sense into you!"I didn't blink. I caught her wrist mid-air, my grip tightening unt

The realization hit me like a physical weight, settling deep in my gut.In this territory, if Andrew Wolfe wanted to keep someone under his thumb, they wouldn't stand a chance of seeing the sun.Seeing me retreat into a dark, heavy silence, Lydiasa let a flicker of pure triumph dance across her face."Lanka, why let the history between us adults ruin things for the pups?" she purred, her voice dripping with artificial sweetness. "Our children are going to be pack-mates soon enough. Don't you want your little one to have an older brother to run with?"I looked her dead in the eye, my lips curling into a frigid, mocking half-smile."Stop the theatrics, Lydiasa. You’ve been shadowing me all day, playing the concerned sister, and now you want your kid to follow in your footsteps and be just as hollow. Did you even stop to wonder if they'd want to inherit your talent for bad acting?"Lydiasa’s knuckles turned white as she gripped her bag, but she didn't let the mask slip."Why don't you he

Daniel Cho stood there, his neck practically twitching with tension."Start talking. What was the plan?"Daniel looked like he was about to break down and cry, his voice cracking with a desperate honesty. "Alpha Wolfe, I swear I didn't mean for it to go this far. When I went to find Lanka, I just wanted him to feel something for you. I thought if he saw the stakes, he’d come back. I might have leaned into the tragedy a bit and showed him the footage of the attack. That’s all it was, I promise."My eyes went cold, the frost of a winter pack-land settling in my gaze. I knew Daniel must have pulled some stunt to leave Lanka that terrified.He was practically a ghost when I caught him outside the medical wing."Who gave you the green light for this? You think you're some master strategist now? You've got a death wish, not a brain!"Daniel turned a shade of white that matched the hospital tiles.I’d told him to let Lanka know about the silver-blade incident, nothing more. I never even told

I sat there on the edge of the bed, straddling Andrew’s lap. I couldn't help it; I arched my back just a fraction and rested my hands on my stomach, my eyes boring into his."Tell Joy the truth right now," I demanded, my voice trembling. "Why did you force those pills on me? Why were you so cruel about us having a baby?"I tried to keep my expression fierce, but my eyes were stinging, and I knew my lashes were spiked with tears. I looked like a mess, but I didn't care.Andrew’s fingers reached up, light as a feather, brushing the moisture from the corners of my eyes. As he rubbed the dampness between his fingertips, he looked at me with a gaze that had finally started to thaw."Making you take those pills... it was because I truly didn't think we were ready for a pup," he said quietly.The heat rushed to my face, and my nose went pink. The rejection stung worse than the stitches I'd had years ago. Seeing me on the verge of another breakdown, Andrew let out an exasperated sigh and lean

Serena scrambled off the sofa, her scent sharp with a metallic, envious tang. She began throwing wild, weak punches at the air where I had been standing, her desperation clawing through her sweet facade.I didn't stay to watch. I vaulted into Carllo’s battered old Chevy, the engine roaring to life.

"Lanka, I bought this bracelet myself. How could it possibly belong to your family? Framing me with such a pathetic excuse... it's not a good look for you."Serena’s voice broke into fresh sobs, but I didn't let go of her wrist. I pulled it closer, my eyes narrowing as I scrutinized the stone. At a

I whipped my head around as the sea of onlookers suddenly cleaved in two. Two rows of Enforcers in black tactical gear surged forward, clearing a path with practiced, lethal efficiency.A tall, imposing figure strode through the gap, his presence hitting the room like a physical blow. Andrew’s shar

I glared at him, my eyes narrowing until they felt like they might spark. "Can’t you tell I’m talking about swallowing gunpowder? I'm five seconds away from exploding."Andrew barely moved, though one corner of his mouth twitched upward. "If you’re so full of fire, Lanka, just try not to blow me up
