Kate's POV I called him "Rich?" He showed me a finger and told me to wait one minute. I heard a car roar in the parking lot. I saw it was Ben and Gamma Richard disconnected his phone. I thought that it must be Ben to whom Gamma Richard was talking. Ben parked the car and came to us and he bowed to the king first and said, "My King." Alpha King told him to rise and then Ben Stone addressed me and asked, "I don't know what to say about you Beta Kate. But are you sure her name is Grace?" I told him, "Yes, I am sure. Although I wanted to ask you her full name is Grace Ben Stone, so your father and you share the same name?" Ben said, "Actually, my name is Benjamin Stone but I prefer my dad's name in his memories." I replied, "Okay Ben. If you prefer this name." This showed that I respected Ben's wishes in wanting to use his father's name to honor his memory and that I was willing to address him by that name. Alpha King interrupted us and asked Ben, "Would you like to meet her or not
Kate's POV Alpha Garrett replied, "It's our pleasure having you all. Especially Kate." After hearing his comment, I asked, "Where is Luna Sharen?". Alpha Garrett replied, "She is with our kids." I told him, "I am about to meet her." I stepped inside and everyone followed suit. Luna Sharen was happy to see me but she was preparing her kids to start school and she said, "Kate, please can you wait for some time? I will be back in some time." I replied to her, "Happy to meet you too Luna Sharen." The two of us laughed and she went on with her work. Alpha King sat on the couch and beside him were Alpha Garrett, then Gamma Richard and Ben. Alpha Garrett said, "Gamma Richard, how are you?" Richard smiled at him and said, "Healthy as always Alpha Garrett." Alpha Garrett smiled and said, "Good to know." Richard asked, "I heard the rogues attacked your pack." Alpha Garrett nodded and replied, "You heard right Gamma Richard but we are here today because of Kate and the King." I retu
Kate's POV Alpha Garrett also added, "Mine too." Alpha Garrett was showing his agreement with my declaration and demonstrating that the two of us were in agreement on this matter. Ben was happy about the reunion with his sister. He was so engrossed in his world that he forgot about us. Alpha King whispered into my ears, "It's time that we should leave. Our work is done here." I looked into his eyes and said, "Okay." I called Gamma Richard, "Rich, we are leaving. Are you coming with us?" Gamma Richard replied, "Yes Kate, my car is in the hotel." I nodded and Gamma Richard called Ben and said, "Ben, we are leaving. Call me when you want to come." Ben nodded and came to us and said, "My apologies Beta Kate, I didn't trust your words at first but after I saw her from my own eyes I am very much sure now. I don't know how to thank you, Beta Kate. I am grateful to your pack for giving me more than I deserve." He looked down with a heavy heart. In addition to feeling nervous and guilty,
Kate's POVAlpha King smiled and said, "Let's go. The reports are ready, Beta May, and everyone is waiting for us."I saw a mischievous person in his eyes when I accepted his challenge. I am sure he is up to no good.~We quickly headed to the meeting room where everyone was already waiting for us. Upon entering, everyone bowed to their Alpha King. Alpha King acknowledged everyone and made them sit. Miss Nina was already sulking when our eyes met. I ignored Miss Nina and looked around and met eyes with Miss Lucy. She smiled at me and waved hello to me. I gave her a smile. I sat beside Alpha King. On this throne-like chair, Alpha King sat.Beta May came and stood at the back of Alpha King. The Alpha King ordered, "Start the meeting."Roxanne Robson stood and presented a file to Alpha King where I could see a lot of pages. Alpha King took the file and asked, "Is this a summary report?"Roxanne Robson said, "Yes my King."Alpha King asked her, "Can you brief me? I will check the details
Kate's POVAlpha King was thanking me for accepting his apologies. He was scared as he had already said he would never use his authority on me. However, he did it unknowingly for the sake of his people who were suffering. Therefore, I didn't mind as he was doing his Alpha King's duty.~We quickly had lunch and I was freaking nervous. There was sweat on my palms and all I could think about was how I would filter my mouth. I just say whatever comes to my mind and it will be problematic for Alpha King's reputation.Our hands were intertwined and Alpha King asked me, "What happened love?" I can feel his worry that he is concerned about me but I don't know how to explain my situation but I have to do something about it. I just shook my head as a way of telling him nothing had happened.We were heading to the conference hall where all the guests were Alphas, Lunas, as well as Betas and Gammas too. Alpha King's government authority. We saw the gate to the conference hall when we turned arou
Kate's POVI smirked and said, "Miss Nina, Fuck off." and I headed to the washroom. This is already too much for me but I will see what happens next. I was overwhelmed by Miss Nina's suggestion. This seemed to imply that Alpha King was too suitable for me as I am a Beta of a pack whereas that girl came from a rich and royal family. I felt the need to escape the situation; the only way I could do that was to excuse myself and head to the washroom.Inside the washroom, I felt that I had wasted my time here being with the Alpha King, but he is my mate. I don't feel comfortable trusting him now, but I still believe in him. As soon as I moved to the washbasin, I rinsed my face. I want to clear my head. I need to give a speech after that. Now was not the right time, I thought. I need to be prepared for the speech. I will handle that later.Infidelity, yes, can be a powerful thing between mates but from my past experience, I know how to handle myself. I can handle the pain. Watching myself i
Kate's POVAlpha King smiled and said, "Don't be jealous. She has some paperwork to complete and also came to meet me."I smiled and said, "Is she going to stay?"Alpha King said doubtfully, "Maybe, but why?"I shook my head and said, "Nothing."We returned to the conference hall again and I was not able to find that "red girl". The conference hall was converted into an auditorium. Everyone sat in their assigned seats. As Alpha King sat on his seat, he told me to sit next to him. I obliged as I know he will not let me go. I expected Gamma Richard would be here so he could hear what I was trying to say.The MC on stage greet the Alpha King and started the process. As the MC announces, "Hello everyone, I am the MC this evening. I would like to welcome everyone and also want to tell you that this is the last day of the conference. Our King has met everyone here I believe. In case you are still unable to contact Alpha King, you can schedule an appointment with our Beta May. Here are a few
Kate's POVThe mc's words were a testament to the power of the speech and its potential to inspire people to action. The fact that the mc was applauding and showing appreciation for the message implied that the speech had a real impact and encouraged the audience to take the speaker's words to heart.After that, some other speakers also spoke, but the impact that my speech was different as compared to others. In contrast, others were more dedicated to the part of the accomplishment they have gained. Getting all the help an Alpha King should provide. In most of their speeches, they focused primarily on the past. No one thought about the future or how to prevent any bad things from happening in the present.I focused on what we should do to make the future better for us and future generations. I highlighted the importance of planning and looking beyond the present. It was a very well-received and appreciated speech from the other side of the room. It motivates me immensely.As the eveni
