AlessandroThree whole days passed before I had an answer from Lorenzo Moretti.The man had been completely absent, in a silence so overwhelming that I knew it was not normal for someone like him. My tension was felt by Chiara, and it made her more paranoid than usual.“They're coming,” she said that night. “I know.”“They may do it, even try, but you're going to tear them apart; I'm confident of that,” I said with such certainty that Chiara was surprised.“Do you think I'm capable of stopping them yet?” my mate asked so fearfully that I was sincere.“I think you are quite capable of doing that and more, amore mio,” I said sincerely. "You have advantages they don't know about. Everything the hunters ever thought about us ends up being wrong about you. You're no ordinary she-wolf; you're going to sweep in spectacular fashion."“I don't know whether to trust,” Chiara said. "The reality is I don't know what I'm capable of doing; I'm just trying to rediscover who I am, what I am, and all

AlessandroI looked at the USBs with a frown.It had been hours since Luca had left the club.“Why don't you see what's on the USBs?” asked Nicola with arched eyebrows.“Because I don't know if they have any viruses affecting our networks and systems,” I said seriously.“Well, I'll send for a new, offline computer, and we'll check it out, and then after we see the USBs, we'll burn it, shall we?” asked Nicola sarcastically.“Do the needful,” I said. "I want Paolo here; like it or not, he's the one who can help us crack something encrypted. We need to keep that in mind."“Right,” Nicola said.Two hours later and with three shots of whiskey in my system, I welcomed Paolo, who sat down to set up the computer Nicola got. The man set up some response protocols in case the USB contained some kind of data-stealing virus or something like that.I just waited patiently until Paolo gave me the job.“Ready, you can check the USB; I'll be outside having drinks with my men,” Paolo said, and I nodde

Chiara“Are you sure Luca could be with those families?” asked Nicola incredulously.“I can bet my next book's earnings that he had something to do with that uprising,” I said calmly and smiled in amusement because despite everything, I did know my brother a little. "Luca is cunning; seeing in perspective everything I told you, it seemed somewhat unlikely that he was the person who really wanted me dead. And I thank God that's the case."“I never doubt your way of seeing things again,” Nicola said, and Alessandro hugged me.“Try to find out all about those families, if we have problems with them, if it's all more than a deep break, and if Luca is with any of them,” Alessandro said. "After that, we'll see what next moves we should have. For now, the most important thing is to keep looking for Dante."That was a serious one.And it was something that consumed them for weeks on end, in which silence was nothing more than a half-hearted response. My father was nowhere to be seen; it was a

AlessandroWhen Chiara told me what had happened, I wanted to shoot myself.There was no more graphic way to admit that I felt like shit for having loosened security. I tried to communicate with her, but there was no way; something was blocking our form of mental communication, but from the link I knew she was alive, unconscious, but alive.We reached the forest, and there was no trace of her.Valeria was very bad; the harpoon that had pierced her body had left her with deplorable wounds. Nicola screamed in pain, but the men moved her in an emergency. I only prayed that she would not die in such a sad way, or we would all regret it terribly. The reality was very hard, very strong.Everything felt much heavier, and the trail of corpses of men from my pack surprised me. They had been hit right in the neck, in a completely accurate and terrifying way.“No sign of her, Alpha,” one of my men said. "They drove her out, but then she got lost on the highway. They covered her tracks well so we

AlessandroPreparing an express wedding is more complicated than people think.When I told Loreta what I wanted to do, she called me crazy while Chiara laughed. However, she helped me with everything I had to track down to get us to the abbey where my parents got married.It was a dilapidated place inside the forest, a safe place that no one, not even people from the herd, would set foot in for quality.“Don't you think the timing will turn out to be a bit counterproductive with what happened, Valeria?” asked Chiara carefully.I raised my eyebrows, not understanding her point.“She and Nicola were going to get married first and—”“This has nothing to do with them; this has more to do with how we feel and what we mean to each other and how that reflects on the pack,” I said seriously. "This is a matter of guile and legality. If something should happen, I want you not to be left unprotected, that the pack will protect you, and that even after my possible death you can have a home."Chia
