Unknown Betrayal Chapter 22: Xander vs. Leo
(Xander POV) “Well, well, well. Who do we have here?” I stumbled a few times as I forced myself to stand up. I knew getting caught here was a mistake that I was going to pay for, but the last thing I would ever do is admit it to this a&&hole. “Well, hello there Leo,” I slurred, pretending not to care that he was here. “You are supposed to be at the conference,” he said coldly. I rolled my eyes and glanced behind him at the three goons standing with him. “Yeah, well.” “I did not give you permission to leave, Boy.” Anger and adrenaline were quickly sobering me up. Maybe not as fast as I needed them to, but it was something. I looked at Leo as defiantly as I could. “Boy??!?” I spit back. “I am just three years younger than you. And the last time I checked, you were neither my father nor my alpha.” I am pretty sure half of those words were slurred and only somewhat understandable, but in my head, they sounded crystal clear. “Why is it that every time Piper disappears on me
Unknown Betrayal Chapter 23: Getting in Trouble
(Piper POV) I was in the kitchen working on meal prep when Warrior Asher came to find me. It had been a couple of days since that disaster of a party. “Piper, the alpha wants to see you.” I turned and looked at Asher in surprise. “Alpha Aiden is back? I thought that the conference was supposed to last a few more days.” “He came back early,” Asher responded solemnly. “Why?” Asher looked at me sympathetically. “He received a complaint that he thought warranted immediate attention.” I wrinkled my eyebrows in confusion. “A complaint? About what?” Asher looked down. “It… was a complaint about you.” “What?!?! What did I do?” My brain quickly began running a million miles a minute as I tried to figure out what I possibly could have done that would warrant Alpha Aiden leaving the conference early. Yes, I had been distracted and upset, and so my cooking and cleaning skills had been even worse than normal the past couple of days. But surely, burning some potatoes and missin
Unknown Betrayal Chapter 24: Alpha Aiden
(Alpha Aiden POV) As Piper walks into my office and sits down in a guest chair, I run my hand through my long curly red hair in both anger and frustration. I don’t know if it is Piper’s fault that I am so upset, or if it is Jonas’s fault… or if it is my own. I have been the alpha of Moon Shadow Pack for four years. I was only 19 years old when I took over. Most alpha heirs do not take over until their mid to late 20s, after they have met their mates/ lunas, but I had to take over earlier because my father died unexpectedly. As a younger alpha, I am hyper-sensitive to criticism from others. I know that I lack the experience that other alphas have, and I would even admit that I lack some of the maturity too. However, my pack members still depend on me for stability, leadership, and security. That means that I cannot afford to make mistakes. Every mistake that I make represents weakness, and every weakness I have represents risk to my pack. That is why I got so upset when Xande
Unknown Betrayal Chapter 25: Piper's Trigger
(Piper POV)“The safety of this pack and its members is my highest priority, and anyone —ANYONE— who jeopardizes that safety is subject to severe punishment.”“Yes, of course, Alpha.” I was feeling completely confused, and Alpha Aiden was starting to scare me a little bit. What was he talking about? What did he think that I did? And why was he talking about punishment? Meanwhile, as confused as I was, I could feel Penelope becoming angry. She had always had a fondness for Alpha Aiden, but she did not like it when anyone talked to me the way that Alpha Aiden was talking to me right now.“So why don’t you tell me why you were making a public scene at Leo Bloodstone’s cousin’s birthday party two nights ago, and why you chose to whore yourself out while you were there?”That was… Leo’s cousin’s party?Oh, my Goddess.No wonder Leo was there. And no wonder he had a room at the packhouse.“Piper, I asked you a question.”“I-I am
Unknown Betrayal Chapter 26: Spiraling Nonsense
(Alpha Aiden POV) I do not know why I let the conversation with Piper spiral so far out of control. I had a plan. Confront Piper; punish Piper; move on with my day. Maybe even go back to the conference. I thought I had thought through all of the possibilities. I had even talked about everything with Beta Jonas. Admittedly, when I talked to Jonas, he had been uncomfortable. He said the allegations seemed out of character for Piper, which I could not disagree with him about. However, after I told Jonas that it was Xander Ross who called me —and after I told him about the corroborative evidence I had obtained— , he agreed that we needed to take action. Jonas thought the proposed punishment was too harsh, but he ultimately agreed with it anyway. The idea for the punishment came from Xander, who said it was what he would do if one of his omegas acted the way that Piper had acted. He said that a strong alpha does not let this kind of behavior go unchecked. Executing the punis
Unknown Betrayal Chapter 27: The Punishment
(Alpha Aiden POV) “You want to leave Moon Shadow?” I repeated back in shock. Piper’s request caught me completely off guard. In a million years, I had not considered the possibility that Piper would want to leave the pack. Worse, for reasons that I could not explain, the idea of her leaving my pack hurt me. It felt like, if Piper left, a piece of me would be leaving too. It was a bizarre feeling that I had never felt before. “You cannot let her go, Aiden,” my wolf August linked me. “Who is she to us?” I asked him. “Is she our mate?” “I don’t know, Aiden. She isn’t 20 yet. We won’t know for sure until her birthday. I just know that we have to protect her. I think you should re-think the punishment. It doesn’t feel right.” “I can’t!” I protested in our link. “I have to execute the plan. We have to protect her and our pack. We can’t risk the Bloodstones finding her.” “You don’t even know why she ran. If you punish her like you planned, I think you will regret it,” Au
Unknown Betrayal Chapter 28: The Pup
(Three Weeks Later)(Xander POV)It has been surprisingly quiet at Blue Ridge since we got back from the conference. Eerily quiet, to be honest.Leo Bloodstone warned me that things would get worse around here, but he has not been around. His father has not been around either. Leo is not the type to make empty threats, so I knew immediately that something was amiss.I was originally worried that Leo wasn’t here because he either found Piper or had a lead on where she was. In fact, when I sobered up after the confrontation in the bar —and realized that Piper and Leo had been within mere miles of one another— I went into panic mode. That panic reached a fever pitch when Alpha Aiden let it slip that Wildwood was Leo’s aunt’s pack.Thankfully, however, I heard some of Leo’s guards talking several days later. From what I was able to piece together from their conversation, after our confrontation at the bar, Leo received a phone call from his ex, Ingrid. She told Leo that their son h
Unknown Betrayal Chapter 29: Axel's Accident
(Leo Bloodstone POV)“How is he doing?” my father asks me as he comes into the small hospital room that I am currently sitting in. It is the first time that I have seen my father in person in a few weeks.I look at 3-year-old Axel and take in a frustrated breath. The tiny pup is lying in a hospital bed, hooked up to a variety of machines and equipment. “As well as can be expected,” I reply.Axel has been in a coma for the past three weeks, ever since he fell out of an open window on the third floor of his mother’s house. The fall caused him to break both of his legs, break his right arm, and fracture his skull. Pups his age do not have the benefit of werewolf healing, so he must heal the same way that human children do. In theory, a healer might be able to help. However, werewolves with the magical ability to heal others are really rare. The only one that I am aware of is Luna Lily, the leader of the werewolf council. Unfortunately, Luna Lily is pregnant, and the pregnancy pr
