**Alana's POV***James and I embraced as he was about to leave with his mate and our men. “Alpha, take care of yourself while you're here,” he said with concern.“Worry not, James. You know I will survive.”“I'm not worried then. I pray we settle all of this, I'll come pick you up to your original pack.”I smiled at James's words. I know he would, and I'm not even bothered at all.I watched them leave with tears in my eyes. I honestly wish that I could go with them, so I can also help. I care for them as my father would have wanted me to. But not being there made me feel like I'm not fulfilling my duties as their leader.“Alana, can you stop worrying?” I snapped out of my emotional state and took my gaze to my side. Who was I expecting it to be if not the ever annoying Aiden!“What's going on with the monsters? I learned there is no more on sight.”I asked.“You don't have to worry about that. I sent my secret investigators to trace the other monsters that went back.”“It's strange, d
***Alana's POV**As soon as we all got into the hall, I noticed many alphas from different packs all gathered.Just as we took our seats, the other Alphas stood up and greeted Aidan and his brothers respectfully. I'm bewildered to see just how much respect these Alphas have for my mates. It's puzzling, I must say.“You may all take your seats,” Aiden instructed. And at that moment, I caught them looking in my direction and muttering about how I came in here.“What is the murmuring all about?” Aiden asked sternly, and they all looked in his direction at once.Just then one among the Alpha's cleared his throat, “permit me to be the voice of the others, Alpha Aiden.”Aiden grabbed a quick glance at me, then took his gaze back to the Alpha standing in front of us.“Go ahead.” He stated.“Alpha, if we guessed right, the lady sitting next to you is a rogue, isn't she?”When he asked this, the hall immediately went silent and waited to hear what Aiden had to say. I shut my eyes at this momen
***Alana's POV***After the meeting was over, we all left the meeting hall to attend to personal matters when someone rushed towards us.“May I have an audience with you, Alphas?” We all turned our gaze to see that it was one of the Alphas. Though I don't know him personally.“Alpha Austin, what is the matter?” Caden asked."Alphas, there's something I would like to report which the other Alphas don't know about. If you'll give me a listening ear, I'm sure this will benefit in the investigation.”My mates and I took quick glances at one another. We communicated through the mind link and took our gaze back to the Alpha.“Come with us,” Aiden said to the Alpha, and we all headed to their private room. In here, no one would dare to eavesdrop on our conversation.“Now, Alpha Austin, go ahead and tell us what you know.”We all took our seats while Austin stood to narrate his story. “Actually, I have a vampire in my pack. Her name is Lisa.”“You what?!” Caden exclaimed,wide-eyed.Immediatel
***Alana's POV***We paced the meeting room and were deep in thoughts. If things truly happened this way, then I understand that this might surely be the truth. Rejection is far better than killing a mate.I don't need a soothsayer to tell me what's actually happening here. It is quite obvious that Ralph had gone feral.“Lisa, do you know where this Ralph can be located?” I asked impatiently.“Sadly, nobody knows where he might actually be. He hasn't been seen for several years, and some think that he might have died. But then, nobody knows."“I don't think he died. From what you just explained, I have a gut feeling that he might actually be the one responsible for the monsters.”“Why do you think so, Alana?” Caden asked.I lifted my gaze towards him.“From the look of things, these monsters do not attack the vampires, but only the werewolves. In such cases, it's obvious that a vampire is responsible for this. Which is why I suspect Ralph.”Everyone went silent at this moment. I'm sur
***Alana's POV**I was in my room when a maid informed me that my presence was required in the pack's living room because my gamma was here. Immediately, I rushed out of my room. Without thinking twice. If my gamma is here, then this simply means he must have news about the pack.As quickly as I arrived in the living room, my mates, and gamma were already seated. Ever since we started working together, my mates seemed to be more interested in my pack and whatever I say or do.As soon as I saw my gamma, I lit up. “Alpha Alana!” He stood up and rushed to my side.“Alpha, thank the goddess I met you,” he said with relief.“I'm glad you came as well. So, tell me, what's happening in the pack?” When I asked this, his once cheerful expression suddenly turned sour.“What's going on?” He looked at me for a while without saying a word. I understood he wanted to discuss this in private. But knowing my mates, they won't want anything shady occurring. This is because we've been pretty open with e
**Alana's POV**I know I was supposed to inform my mates at least, but I was just too engrossed in who this vampire is and didn't want to give him any chance of escape and so I rushed into the woods where I perceived his scent.Though I have no idea where I was headed, the more I walked into the forest, the stronger the vampire scent I perceived. No doubt he's close by. Since my wolf was on high alert, I wasn't afraid of anything and rather forged ahead."Show yourself if you're not a coward. If you could follow me all the way to my pack, then I'm sure you have your reasons."I said while glancing at every corner of the woods.I don't know who this vampire is, but I cannot let him escape. "Why aren't you coming out? I can smell you and I swear that I'll catch up with you pretty soon. Why don't you show yourself so we can talk peacefully!"I said out aloud, hoping he'd show up but he didn't, even after threatening him. He sure must be a stubborn one, isn't he?I slowly followed the sce
***Alana's POV**“What the fuck were you doing in this deep forest alone!” Aiden yelled at me.“Calm down, brother. Good thing we found her in time.” They helped me up, and Caden immediately crouched down. “Hop on my back.”“What? No!” I refused.“Stop being stubborn. We need to get you to Michelle so you can be properly checked!” Aiden said with concern. I looked at Jayden, who stood beside me. “Alana, what were you thinking? You could have called me or my brothers.”“Nothing happened to me. And besides, even if you hadn't come to my rescue, I would have taken him down on my own.”They all scoffed at my words. “Get on, Alana, you need to see the doctor nevertheless.,” Caden said.It's obvious that there's nobody I could say now to make them believe me. I heaved a deep sigh and hopped onto his back.Together, we all headed to the pack. Getting there, Jayden quickly called for Michelle's attention. They treated me as though I were injured, even though I was perfectly fine.Caden placed
***Alana's POV***They watched me quietly as I pulled off every single cloth I had on.When I was finally out of clothes, I rested both my hands on my hips."What were you saying again? I'm sorry I wasn't paying attention."Caden blinked and almost lost his balance. Aiden on the other hand swallowed hard.Jayden, licked his lips. Their gazes were focused on me, drinking on my nakedness with thirst."Why are you suddenly doing this, Alana? It is unlike you to give yourself to us, willing?" Aiden said, with a confused expression, even though I could tell that he was dying to get in between my legs.Watching their pants bulging out and wet in the middle. I could tell they were already fantasizing about me."Wel, let's say I've finally realized that you all care for me. I mean if you didn't, you wouldn't come with me to my pack, would you?" I asked as I moved closer to them."We've always cared about you, Alana. You just don't see it, and we understand?" Aiden said in a low tone. Indeed,
