The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary

Chapter 58

Chapter 58 “Alpha Locksworth, I sincerely apologize for Hestia’s false accusation of you. I will personally handle the matter myself. Once again, I truly do apologize. She stepped out of line.” I narrowed my gaze down at her before looking back to Locksworth, ” and I promise you, it will never happen again.” Locksworth’s hard gaze tightened with cynical amusement. He chuckled, shaking his head before narrowing his eyes. Beta Creed immediately stepped back, watching his Alpha exert the most amount of power I’ve ever seen come from a lone wolf. Taking a step forward, Locksworth shoved both hands in his dress pants pockets and stood over me. His dark eyes never wavering as streams of his aggression depleted out of him and onto me. The urge to submit growing steadily but I forced my body to strengthen myself. The Alpha in me was stubborn to keep my ground strong. “I don’t need your promises Walker.” I flinched at his disrespect, forcing down the wolf inside me from lashing out. I know better than anyone that I can’t take him. He would, without a doubt, beat me in power play. He was stronger, both in physical and men tal states. He exudes in power whereas I try to grow it. Alpha Locksworth was not a force to be reckoned with. He could easily end someone’s life with the snap of his fingers. “Just make sure I never have to see that woman again. That episode of hers in front of the Chancellor cost me, Walker. You’re lucky one good thing came out of this.”

His eyes softened for the briefest moments before the darkness in them returned at full force. “It would do you well to heed my advice. In fact, include her father. Because believe me, the next time I see either one of their faces, I won’t be so civil. He threw one last glare at Hestia and Beta Benicio before turning on his heel and striding out the cave. Beta Creed followed behind him but I saw the small smirk on his face before turning. Fuming in my spot, I felt my fur bristle out and shake. The man was mocking me. He knew dam n well I was holding myself back in order not to start a fight. Beta Benicio instantly came to my side, muttering apologies

over and over but I wasn’t hearing it. “When we get back, I want every one of you in my office.” I grit out. “No exceptions.” They silently filtered out of the cave with me being the last person to leave. I watched them all go into our van, noting that Locksworth was already gone by the time we got here. Needless to say that the ride back home was pure hell for the amount of anger rolling off of me. Any wrong movements and the small restraint I had over my wolf would snap and involve the one who put me in the bad. mood. When we arrived back at territory, everyone knew to go to my office. I had mind linked everyone not to disturb us and go on with their day but I knew they sensed my inner anger. They all merely bowed their heads not willing to look me in the eyes in fear of my anger being directed on them. “Somebody explain to me exactly what the f u ck Locksworth was talking about. What about the Chancellor?” 1 stared down at Hestia and Beta Benicio. Hestia rolled her eyes, glaring down at the floor as her father stayed silent Sophie, her mother, shakily spoke up. “Al-Alpha Landon, don’t you think this is a little too harsh? Hestia-” “Little too harsh?” I scoffed bitterly with eyes wide in disbelief, “Your daughter, your Luna, my chosen mate had publicly humiliated us. Me, the Alpha. Our pack. By claiming someone is her mate when he wasn’t. By claiming Locksworth of all people! Tell me, what will the other packs think? What will our allies think? Do you believe them to be so kindhearted as to overlook a scandal like this? A scandal involving the f u ck ing Bloodlust Alpha?” Sophie cowered back, shaking as she forced her head to submit. Beta Benicio looked ready to pounce at me for yelling at his mate. His eyes switching back and forth from black to blue. The only thing holding him back was the fact I was his Alpha. I took a deep breath in, trying to calm myself when Beta Benicio spoke through clenched teeth. His form was rigid, almost too stiff to even breathe. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“Alpha, don’t worry. We’ll fix this-” “Fix?” I laughed, throwing my head back. “Fix how, Beta Benicio? You know what, don’t even say a word. I know for a fact it’ll just be utter bulls hit. But do tell me, exactly what the hell Locksworth was talking about. Exactly what the hell did Hestia do three weeks ago when she claimed to have found her mate?” Beta Benicio looked down to his daughter before meeting my gaze with wary. All traces of anger quickly switching to fear. “S-She and I… we went to the Capital. Hestia was called for a meeting regarding her mate status but then ” His gaze cut to the ground, “we saw Alpha Locksworth with the Chancellor. They were with other Alpha’s; Alpha Foster, Alpha Hales and Alpha Monterey. Hestia, she she just stopped talking and immediately ran up to him. She said they were mates. I- I believed her of course, but Alpha Locksworth had no idea what she was talking about. He just kept denying it-“
