บททั้งหมดของ The Stripper Alpha: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

(ZAHRA-ROSE’S POV)According to the law of the Four Realms, any pack with a new leader must present them to the other packs, including their Luna. Which is why I am preparing for a two day journey to the DarkEast Pack. I would rather spend my days training than traveling, but in this, I have no choice.Ashvin is doing this not just for tradition but for my family. The DarkEast Pack is the primary suspect in their disappearance and we have to go there to know what is really happening. “Remember, no matter how much you don’t want to do something, you have no choice but to follow through. In doing so, the people will know that he leads you first and when he leads you first, that makes him a good leader,” Luna Verena reminded me as we prepared to leave.That was one of the first lessons she taught me. If I respect my husband and Alpha, others will follow suit.I glance at my reflection in the mirror, second-guessing my outfit. It’s simple yet elegant, a fitted, short-sleeved beige blous

I woke up the next morning to an empty apartment. Blinking away the rest of the sleep from my eyes, I got out of bed and headed straight for the bathroom to freshen up.Maybe it was the uncertainty of what the day would bring, but I had already decided, today was meant for snooping around. I needed to familiarize myself with the pack and figure out what they had been up to.As soon as I stepped out of the bathroom, dressed and ready, a knock sounded at the door. I walked over and opened it to find Ashvin standing on the other side.His gaze lingered on me for a moment before he spoke. “Have you been up for a while?”I shook my head. “I just woke up.” Then, narrowing my eyes, I added, “You weren’t here when I woke up.” I almost asked where he had gone, but then I remembered, the room was bugged.“It’s okay,” he reassured me as he stepped inside. “We already got rid of all the bugs. You can talk freely now.”A deep sigh of relief escaped me. At least now, I didn’t have to be so guarded

I got back to the apartment to find Zahra-Rose pacing restlessly across the room.Even in distress, she looked graceful, beautiful, and poised despite the worry etched across her delicate features. The way her hair cascaded over her shoulders made my wolf, Zen, stir with an instinctive possessiveness. She turned toward me as soon as I stepped through the door, her eyes brightening with anticipation.“Finally! I’ve been waiting for you since forever.” Her voice held a breathless edge as she sighed in relief.A small smile tugged at the corner of my mouth despite the heavy weight in my chest. The anticipation in her eyes made my heart skip a beat, and Zen was practically vibrating with excitement.“I hope you came with good news?” I said, brushing past her toward a chair. My mind was tangled with too many problems, and I desperately needed a moment to breathe, but I knew I wouldn’t get one until things were settled.“I met someone today.” Zahra’s tone brimmed with restrained excitement

Suddenly, his father, Alpha Deus, appeared from nowhere, the trail of Elders following behind him like dark wraiths.“Let us add a twist to this fight,” he announced, stepping to the edge of the arena. His gaze swept over the gathered wolves, predatory and sharp. He wasn’t just addressing the fighters, he was addressing everyone.What is the meaning of this? And what twist is he talking about now?I glanced at Ashvin, who sat there with his arms crossed, looking completely unbothered. A faint smile played on his lips as he watched Alpha Deus, who seemed far too pleased with himself.“And what is this twist?” someone called out when the Alpha let the silence drag too long.Deus’s gaze darkened, and his frown deepened as he spoke. His voice echoed with the weight of dominance, holding the attention of every wolf present.“We all know the concern of the two packs regarding the future of MoonBright. Their alpha left no heir, and it is foolish to allow the next leader to be chosen based on

ASHVIN HARVEY’S POV (THE FIGHT)A challenge for a fight?? it was laughable, especially coming from Kairo whose head cannot carry his body.Immediately he came out with that bullshit, I knew something was wrong. He had a plan, his father had a plan, and they were all out to get me.But he should have known that I was wiser and would never allow anyone to taunt me. And even if you taunt me, I will never be shaken, and yet he challenged me.“What will you do?” Kai asked me through the mind-link as we sat in the open field.My eyes moved to Zahra-Rose. I could see the fear in her eyes, the boldness she had speaking out, and I knew just for her sake, I needed to fight.“If you trust me enough, you will know he has no strength in him and that we have been blessed by the Moon Goddess,” Zen said, ever willing to show off.A smile rippled across my face as I looked at Kai.“Go and find out what he is planning, and be quick about it.”He left the arena, and within some minutes, as father and s
