TO LOVE A FEMALE ALPHA のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 131 - チャプター 140

XANDER.“I don’t even know who I am anymore.” I wiped my tears and tilted my head up, looking at the starless night sky. Alpha Jace remained silent, and I knew he probably didn’t believe anything I said. But at least I tried.“I heard someone from your group of friends ask what I did while she was in prison, and they all shrugged their shoulders. They saw nothing. They heard nothing.” I continued. “Maybe I did nothing that anyone could see, but I did everything I could, Alpha Jace. Even the part where I looked like the bad guy just to protect her.” “You already saw what Maddox did to Catherine. Why did you allow Nadine here?” He asked.“I didn’t. If you think I met Nadine here when she came, I didn’t. I met her at Catherine’s Claiming.” I started by telling him that I didn’t want Nadine to know about myself and my pack, as I didn’t intend to take her home with me.I told him I should have known better that there was an agenda behind her showing up at the border and her refusal to le

NADINE. A group of females I spoke with a few days back asked if I would open the Beta post for someone else or if I would let Kenzo have it. I knew I could do such a thing. Kenzo would make a great Gamma or Beta, and anyone in the pack could certainly step up, learn the ways of a Beta, and excel in it. But my heart wanted to reserve that spot for my mate. I knew Xander would make a great Alpha, and I would love to rule this pack with him. But if there was anyone who could fill up the spot as a Beta, it was him. Not because I was superior to him but because after everything we went through, I knew I would never trust my life with anyone the way I trusted my life to him, and I think no other shifter could top him in that position.I also knew he could reject both posts, and I would never take it against him. He had always been vocal about not wanting a rank-wolf life. That life was more peaceful outside of a pack.Maybe it was the reason he left. He didn’t want this kind of life. Thi

NADINE.“Did you say they got him?” I asked Jake. I was sure I heard him right the first time, but I wanted to be sure. “Yes. He has arrived at the Council territory and is currently being detained.” He answered. “Fuck! Fuck!” I kept tapping my palm against my table. “I was supposed to go to him today. I was exactly on my way out when you called.”“You are slower than them, then!”“Jake! Don’t let them do anything to him! I swear to Selene, he is innocent! He just came here four months ago and knew nothing of his business! I asked him to try to sneak in and get more details, but that was it! Maddox had never trusted anyone with his business, especially Xander!” I was too fast, explaining what I knew as if it could save him.“Calm down! All they need to do is roll out an Alpha Command when they question him, and if he answers his innocence, they will let him go.” Jake sounded relaxed this time, and my heart clenched in pain. Saying this out loud was even more painful. “He is an Alpha

NADINE. “I was sure I reminded you to ask him important questions and not eat his face,” I heard Riley say, and Jake chuckled. I stopped the words wanting to come out of my throat and discreetly looked at Xander through my lashes. He had his back on them, and since I was on his front, I was the only one who could see his face. He bit his bottom lip, suppressing a smile to crack on his face. That was enough for me. He was not grumpy about Riley’s comment.“Stop talking as if you don’t forget you’re the Alpha whenever Nadia kisses you. She bats her eyelashes, and you immediately pant like a dog.” Jake mocked him, and I rolled my eyes. I wanted to tell him as if he were not the same as Riley, but Riley did the honor of telling him that, until they realized Xander and I were just quiet and just staring at each other. “Ahem..” Jake cleared his throat again. “I understand you don’t want us here, but you need us. Trust me.”I was not able to stop my chuckles as I walked past Xander and

NADINE.After waking up early today, Arlo drove me to the Council Territory so I could visit Xander. It had been five days since the last time I was here. We talked twice on the phone, and although he sounded cold, I knew he cared. He always made sure to ask about me and if I was resting. I knew despite the indifference he was showing me, deep down, he cared. And that made me so excited today. I woke up early and made food for him as I was able to secure an hour and a half of visiting time.Maybe being excited was an understatement. I was beyond ecstatic. Jake told me they were able to contact Maddox’s accountant, and, from the looks of it, the Council was able to invite him for questioning. Jake had no idea what the current status was, but the proceeding that was scheduled in two days had already been canceled. It was still to be determined if they would announce a new date or if the case against him would be closed. I was hoping it was the latter. I also had a closed-door meetin
