Todos os capítulos de He Thought He Ruled My Pack for Thirteen Years, Then He Failed My Review: Capítulo 1 - Capítulo 10

My parents, Richard and Helena Hale, were the Alpha and Luna of the Westmere pack.I was their only daughter, and they'd spoiled me rotten from the start.My wolf awakened when I was six. My father spread the news through the whole pack right away. He couldn't wait to name me Alpha heir, and he started giving me pack business to handle.But I could never sit still. I'd much rather be out on the training grounds than buried in pages of tiny print.One day, while I was sneaking out, I ran smack into a young werewolf dressed in rags.That was the first time I met Evan.It was also how I learned that my late uncle had left behind a son.Under pack law, once a new Alpha was chosen, every other wolf with Alpha blood had to leave the pack and fend for themselves.When my uncle died young and my father became Alpha, he didn't have the heart to throw Evan out, so he let him stay.But once I was named Alpha heir and my parents went off traveling, it was up to me whether Evan could stay.He seeme

I tightened my grip until her wrist was close to breaking."I've been going into battle with my father since I was eight. I've killed more wolves than I can count."Whenever I trained in front of you, I held back so I wouldn't scare you. But you shouldn't have gone after my people."Her face twisted in pain. She couldn't even get a word out.Then a startled, uncertain voice came from the doorway. "Lorelei, what are you doing?"Evan rushed in."What happened?"If Winona upset you somehow, I'll apologize for her."He was being reasonable enough, so I let go.Winona immediately held up her bruised wrist and complained to Evan."Evan, it hurts so much. My wrist feels like it's about to break..."Evan looked at her with concern. When he looked up at me, his expression turned disapproving."Lorelei, whatever Winona did wrong, you shouldn't treat her like this."I scoffed. "She asked for it."She revoked my fingerprint access to all the pack's restricted areas. She says I owe you 85 million,

When I finished, the room went dead silent.Evan stared at me in disbelief. His face darkened."Lorelei, this is not the time for one of your tantrums."Winona crossed her arms."All this because I said a few things to you the other day? Seriously?"You have to make a scene on a day this important? You really think you call all the shots in Westmere?"Everyone here knows who's been holding Westmere together all these years. If I were you, I'd apologize to Evan right now, before you embarrass yourself."I didn't say anything.She had a point. I'd gone out of my way to support him, but Evan's own talent had also kept him in the position.Soren didn't defend me. Instead, he turned to Evan."Evan, do you honestly believe Ms. Hale's position as heir is nothing but an empty title?"Evan closed his eyes for a moment."What do you all think? Has Lorelei done a single thing for this pack all these years?"Her Alpha seal gets used once a year, right about now. What else is it good for?"Soren sh

Evan went quiet.He waited until the Betas and Elders had left, then came over to me."Lorelei, there's something I want to say to you."I paused as I was getting up, then sat back down."Okay. Go ahead."We'd had each other's backs for 13 years, after all. I wasn't going to write off our entire history because of one day.Evan talked Winona into leaving.That left just the two of us in the meeting room.His voice was strained. "Lorelei, I admit it. I overlooked everything you've done for the pack."But I've put in just as much as you have."Besides, nobody knows this job better than I do. If you replace me now with a new assistant, they'll need time to learn the ropes and settle in. That's definitely not your best option."I raised an eyebrow."You're saying there are things only you can do?"He nodded."I'm not exaggerating."I'm the one who rebuilt our ties with the Stillwater and Sunridge packs."The wolves handling Westmere's purchasing right now? I trained them. They only listen

Not long after Winona left, Soren told me Evan wanted to see me.My father had banned him from Westmere, so he had to wait outside our borders.I didn't even look up."No."Night fell, and the day's training was over.As I left the training grounds, Soren hesitated before he spoke. "Ms. Hale, Evan's still waiting out there for you."It poured this afternoon. He's soaked through, and he still hasn't left."I wasn't surprised at all.If he wanted to see me that badly, he wasn't going to give up after one day.I crossed the border.The moment Evan saw me, he hurried over."Lorelei, I knew..."Before he could finish, he let out a huge sneeze."Achoo..."He coughed. "I knew you'd come see me."I frowned at how pale he was."Once your wolf awakens, your body gets stronger. Even if your wolf is at the lowest rank, a little rain shouldn't make you this sick."His dull eyes suddenly lit up."Lorelei, you still care about me?"I didn't answer.Evan understood what my silence meant. He lowered hi
