ALPHA LEO
“I thought you said you didn’t know who I am? How come you suddenly knew me?”
She smiled at me, and I forced myself to look away because I didn’t want to be enchanted by that beautiful smile of hers,
“Maybe next time I’ll tell you how I found that out. Well, it was nice meeting you. I shouldn’t have been rude earlier when it was clear you were only trying to help me,” I watched her cock her head to face Aless,
“Thank you too.”
Aless nodded her head,
“What’s your name?”
“That’s a secret for today. Probably if we meet next time, I’ll spill it out. We’ll meet again, Alpha Leo, I promise.” She uttered and I couldn’t help but avert my gaze to her. I arched my brows watching her smile like a little girl, and then she took two steps backwards,
“Bye…” she uttered and then began to leave as she turned around,
“Well someone unexpected is the lucky guy. You get to have that damsel cause it’s so obvious she likes you already. Damn, I lost this one again, fuck.” Aless uttered as we both turned to leave but I rolled my eyes at him,
“You can have her Aless, I’m not interested in her. I have a mate already so if you’re thinking anything stupid, it’s not going to happen.”
“And why haven’t you fully claimed this mate of yours? Time is running out, Leo, and…”
“It’s a bit complicated, and I have to give her time.”
“Then I guess she had no idea what you’re sacrificing for her. The strength of the pack, Leo, that’s how much you’re willing to sacrifice for her.”
“For now, I can’t put her under any pressure.” I was starting to get a bit angry at this conversation,
“Didn’t you see her there? It was obvious she was strong. It was obvious she wasn’t an Omega, Leo. Now I don’t know what she is, but if you’re not going to take this opportunity, then I’ll step in.”
I increased my pace,
“She’s all yours. Take her Aless, I think you need her more than I do.” I responded, and once I got to my car, I halted at the entrance,
I’m heading back to the pack. I’ll see you some other time.” I uttered and stepped into the car without sparing him another glance. As I got in, I held the wheel so tight, trying so hard not to let my mind go to her, but all I kept seeing was her smile.
The look on her face as she called my name like she knew me but I had no fucking idea who the hell she was or where she was from. Neither did I know that pack she came from.
I was eager to find out all of this, but at the same time, I wanted to stay as far away from her as possible because of these strange emotions hovering inside of me. I ignited the engine and drove away, heading back to the pack as soon as possible. It was at this moment, that Katherine filled my mind again, and when she did, I let out a smile and increased my speed limit.
Just the thought of Katherine once was able to take her off my mind, and at this moment, I knew Katherine was much stronger in my
mind.
LUNA JANE:
My mind has almost exploded. Where the hell did Zane get Katherine’s ring from? I was starting to feel so frustrated about everything. It felt more like the more I was trying to keep Zane, the more I was losing him to Katherine.
She was right there not doing anything, and yet, it felt like she was the one winning. How the hell was this happening?
Zane had thrown his ring away after the rejection, but I watched Katherine being dragged away by the soldiers with the ring on her
1/2
finger, so where the hell did he get it from? Did he go to see her again in secret? I bit my lower lips and when I couldn’t take it anymore, I walked towards the bathroom and threw the ring inside the toilet.
“You’re not going to win, Katherine. I’ll do whatever it takes to keep Zane by my side, even if I have to destroy more people to do that.” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
I watched it flush down the toilet, and that was the moment I felt a bit relieved. It suddenly dawned on me that if Zane was with this ring, that meant he now trusted Katherine and wasn’t willing to go further with any plans of killing her. Or maybe he was uncovering the truth bit by bit. Although I made sure to leave no trace, I couldn’t be more sure of it.
Jackson was the best person to do this for me. He had to be. I ran towards my phone and picked it up, then I dialed Jackson’s number,
“Hey, I need one more favor, and that’s going to be the last until you return. I’ll send a doctor to your sister’s hospital, and Rose’s treatment will begin immediately. But…“I paused and smirked,
“It wouldn’t be complete until Katherine’s out of the way.”
“That’s more than enough. What do you need me to do?” His response came so fast and I felt so relieved as that was what I wanted to hear. When Jackson gets so desperate, he does the job even better than I had asked or expected him to do.
“Now, I think Zane is up to something. Something that I don’t know about and I have no idea what he’s trying to find, but you need to make sure that he doesn’t find whatever there is to find. If it’s about Katherine, we can’t let him dig deeper into what happened in the past.” I paused and rose to my feet.
There was a tablet in my wardrobe and when I brought it out from its hiding place, I turned it on.
“I’m about to track the location of his phone, and I’ll send it to you immediately. Contact whoever you have to contact and make sure he returns home with absolutely nothing being found out.”
“Yes ma’am, I’ll do that right away,” Jackson responded and I ended the call. Two can play this fucking game, Zane! I uttered to myself and chuckled. He was willing to find out the truth, then may
be it was time to show him the truth that I wanted him to know.
My truth…
