Eric's POVI go straight from Thor's room to my room to shower and get ready for the day. There's no time to waste since I've got two weeks of work to catch up on today.I arrive at my door and pause with my hand on the knob. I smell different essences coming from inside my room.'What are they doing here?' I wonder before pushing the door open.'Yeap, I smelled them alright. Good to know I'm not mistaken.' I think to myself when I find waiting for me inside my room, the members of the team, excluding Timothy the new addition."Good morning!...""Surprise!...""Morning!...""Good morning Beta!..."They each greet me as I enter."Well, good morning everyone. What a surprise indeed! You all didn't sleep in my room, did you?" I ask with a smile. Of course, I know they didn't sleep in my room. I'm sure they just came around to find out beforehand how Thor is doing that morning. They can't wait until they see him to confirm for themselves"Of course not, Beta. We each slept in our rooms.

After the conversation with Uncle Knox ends. I searched my phone for Alpha Nate's number and called him. His phone rings for a while without an answer. I call him again and he answers immediately this time. But instead of a male voice that I was expecting to hear. A soft and enticing female voice drifts into my ear."Hello..." The mesmerizing voice says. It sounds familiar but I can't place where I first heard it from."Yeah... I'm sorry. I don't know, did I dial the wrong number? I thought this was Alpha Nate's number?""Yes, it is his number. I saw he stored your name as Beta Eric. I picked it because I thought it might be important.I'm Raina, by the way. I'm his mate. Anyway, he's in the bathroom. I'll have him call you back when he's done– oh, never mind, he's here already. Please hold on for him." She says and the line goes quiet before I can tell her thank you.Wao! She's Alpha Nate's mate. If my theory turns out to be right, she could be Ash's biological mother. No wonder I fo

I pretend to him as if I don't know who Martha is and he begins to describe her."You should know Martha. She was one of my maids. She worked at my pack house alongside the girl. She is the human maid I got for Knox when he was in the hospital, remember?""Oh yeah, yeah. I remembe r her now." I say"Good, so to your question. You asked if the girl was the one that convinced Martha to adopt her?...""Yeah..." I reply "Well, I know for a fact that Martha adopted her, it was later I heard that the girl herself did everything in her power to manipulate poor Martha into doing that.""Oh, really? And you believed what you heard? You don't think their words might contain a bit of exaggeration?...""Yes, I believe them. Do you know why?... Because I'm their Alpha. They worked for me. I know for a fact that they wouldn't dare lie to me." He replies firmlyHis words surprised me. Like, what is he saying? How could he say what he just said when he knew about how Uncle Knox's elders betrayed his

She slowly looks up from her hands to my face, wonderingly "Something?" She asks as she wipes her tears with her hands. It's obvious she's clueless about what I just asked her but I'm not about to repeat myself. Let her figure out what she's hiding from me herself"I'm sorry Alpha, I have no idea what you're talking about. I don't know..." She immediately stopped talking when I raised an eyebrow questioningly at her For some seconds, I glared at her while she nervously clutched at her fingers."Ohh, yes..." She suddenly says and looks at me. "The only thing I know I should have let you know is that uhmmm... I– I mean..." She stammers and goes back to looking down at her fingers. "Do you think I have all day to spend dilly-dallying with you!?" I coldly ask. "No!... I mean, I'm sorry, Alpha. I– I don't mean to waste your time. Uhmmm... The only thing I know I should have let you know is that... I– I found my mate." She finally says, peeking at me from under her veil of hair. Gauging

I know they'll be giving each other questioning looks as I walk away, wondering to themselves, 'What could have set him off this time.'Fuck!It's been two weeks since I stopped being feral. When he was unconscious, I became broken but I had my emotions under control. Even Bear confirmed just now that I looked happier so why didn't he see that? Why couldn't he see I'm a changed person and more emotionally stable than before? Why didn't he understand and not treat me like I'm a fucking, ticking time bomb!?I messed up just now but he needs to understand that I'm not irrational and irritable all the time. I just slipped now. I made a mistake because I was desperate. Desperate to find my mate. Who amongst them wouldn't be desperate if they were in my shoes? Who will blame me for acting irrationally under such circumstances?They all probably will! They're probably blaming me for being impatient because they don't know what's going on inside my mind. They don't know what I'm up to. They d
