The Alpha and The Outcast 20 Blake's Pain
Emily, sensing Lily's distress, quickly reassured her. "No, Lily, nothing to worry about. Blake called me early this morning and asked me to come over here and accompany you while he's gone. That's why I thought you already knew he had an emergency business trip," she explained in a soothing tone.Lily let out a relieved sigh. "Oh, I see. Thank you, Emily," she said, her voice filled with gratitude. She then remembered something important. "Wait, has Blake left me a message?" she asked, hoping that he had left her some sort of explanation.“Perhaps you should check your phone,” Emily suggested with a smile, knowing that sometimes the simplest solution is the best.Lily quickly made her way back to her room. As she reached for her phone on the side table, she noticed a piece of paper stuck to a computer on the reading nook desk. The computer was not there last night. She made her way over to the reading nook, and saw a note that read, “Hey, Lil. Sorry I'm not there. Something came up,
The Alpha and The Outcast 21 Blake’s Confrontation With Matt
Blake knew full well that venturing into this meeting, in response to Matt's cryptic late-night call, could very well be a perilous trap. Yet, he had no choice but to confront him. Twenty years had elapsed, and every single moment since the tragic loss of his parents, Blake had relentlessly pursued the truth. Now, standing face to face with the perpetrator, he must not under-estimate Matt."Look at you, Blake, growing up to resemble your father," Matt remarked, his voice tinged with a surprising blend of surprise and sentiment, as if he had not betrayed him in the past. “You looked much like me when I was your age,” he went on. A casual grin danced upon his lips, and Blake was wary of Matt concealing the treachery he had inflicted upon his sister and brother-in-law with some of his father's pack.Blake's gaze narrowed, “You must have ruined your brain from the torment of your guilt, and forgotten that I am your aggrieved nephew,” he told him, cautious of the facade Matt presented. "My
The Alpha and The Outcast 22 Blake’s Mounting Frustrations and Lily’s Hurt Feelings
"Blake," Lily interjected, her voice filled with concern and her eyes displaying a mix of earnestness and worry, "I truly believe in his sincerity. But have you ever thought about detaining him for further investigation? We shouldn't underestimate the possibility that he might be revealing something genuinely important. What if we dismiss his claims now and later regret it deeply?"Blake's brow furrowed as he pondered Lily's unexpected interruption. Typically, he would become irritated when someone dared to suggest how he should handle a situation. In his mind, he questioned why she felt the need to interfere in his dealings with the traitor. His anger simmered like a hot iron suddenly doused with cold water, and he silently wished that Andrew would whisk her away from him at that moment. Blake, however, managed to suppress his frustration, opting not to express it, mindful of potentially hurting her feelings unintentionally. Surprisingly, her voice had a soothing effect on him, easin
The Alpha and The Outcast 23 Blake’s personal struggles and Lily’s Hunger Strike
Frustration seethed within Blake, his mind consumed by the elusive figure of Matt, who had been vanished into the labyrinthine depths of the mansion's underground. A surge of impatience coursed through his veins, urging him to exact vengeance upon his traitorous uncle. Yet, the rational part of his being knew that he had to bide his time, that the opportune moment would come.In an attempt to quell the restless fire burning within him, Blake decided to channel his anger into a more productive outlet. Perhaps a vigorous run would exhaust the seething emotions that threatened to consume him. He stood and took off his coat and went out of the mansion. Without a moment's hesitation, he bolted forward, pushing his body to its limits as he sprinted towards the surrounding woods.Every muscle strained as he propelled himself forward, the rapid pounding of his footsteps echoing in his ears. The desire to fully transform into his primal form, to embrace the speed and agility of a wolf on all f
The Alpha and The Outcast 24 George’s Private Talk with Blake
He shook his head, attempting to rationalize the situation. "It's impossible. A simple kiss can't impregnate her, right?" he muttered, his voice confused. What if Emily was right? He wondered. Could it be Jake’s? How much does he know of Lily?Emily's gaze softened, her concern shifting towards a more plausible explanation. She reached out and placed a comforting hand on Blake's arm, offering reassurance. "I understand your worry, but let's consider a more likely cause. I believe she passed out due to lack of nourishment. She hasn't eaten anything since that cup of coffee this morning," she reasoned, her voice laced with practicality.As she spoke, Emily's tone shifted slightly, her frustration seeping into her words. "She was gone this morning before I could even call her for breakfast. And then she skipped lunch because she thought you were mad at her. She even wanted to go home. Now it's late in the afternoon. Honestly, it's partly your fault. I think you should go and prepare her
The Alpha and The Outcast 25 Matt's Evidence and Blake's Acceptance of Matt
George nodded solemnly, his gaze fixed on Blake. "Yes, that's exactly what I'm implying. I was with Matt among the onlookers during the inauguration. When the shoot-out occurred, resulting in the deaths of your parents, Greta’s parents, and their two right-hand individuals, Matt was taken aback and momentarily frozen. However, he quickly regained his composure and managed to identify the source of the attack. He rushed toward it but I stopped him. I don’t want him get involved in that shooting but his involvement with this group forced him to flee and go into hiding when one of the caught ally sold him as the mastermind of the shoot-out."Blake's mind raced as he tried to piece together the puzzle, his thoughts consumed by the revelation George had shared. He couldn't help but wonder if Lily was aware of this information. "Does Lily know about this?" he asked, his voice filled with a mixture of concern and curiosity."No, neither Lily nor my wife were aware of this matter concerning
The Alpha and The Outcast 26 Lily in the Mansion’s Basement
Emerging from the basement, Blake and George brought Matt to the lounge, carefully guiding him to a comfortable seat. With a gentle touch, Blake settled Matt down and inquired, "I'm going to get you some water. Is there anything else you'd like?""Just water, please," Matt replied, his frail appearance contrasting with the Matt Blake had known in his youth. Blake stepped out of the family room to fetch the water, leaving Matt with George, who observed silently as Blake transformed from a being filled with resentment to a concerned son."I couldn't help but wonder how you managed to convince Blake of the truth," Matt spoke to George, his voice filled with a sense of hopelessness that had lingered mere moments ago.George handed Matt a time-tattered envelope he had retrieved after Blake rushed to rescue Matt from the dungeon. "I showed him this," George explained.Curious, Matt inquired, "How did you come into possession of this?""Do you remember Blake's college graduation?" George ask
The Alpha and The Outcast 27 No More Holding Back
Blake hurriedly finished his shower, anticipating that Lily would be waiting for him in his room. However, his heart sank when he discovered she was nowhere to be found. Quickly dressing himself, he rushed downstairs, scanning the surroundings for any sign of Lily. Outside, he spotted Andrew conversing with George, but Lily was conspicuously absent in every direction he looked. Determined to find her, he re-entered the house and checked the kitchen, where Emily and Anne were occupied, but they hadn't seen Lily. With a growing sense of unease, he decided to search Lily's room, finding the door unlocked. Stepping inside, he called out for Lily, but there was no response. Desperate for a glimpse of her, he approached the expansive window overlooking the garden and pool, yet she remained elusive. Continuing his search, he descended to the lower floor and search for Lily there until he reached the basement entrance. Recalling that he had been unable to secure it properly the last time he h

Andrew, George, and Anne emerged from the mansion, gathering around as they saw the box and realized its contents. Andrew's eyes sparkled with enthusiasm as he exclaimed, "Let's give it a try, Blake. It could be our best shot at finding Lily."However, Blake hesitated, understanding the implications. "As much as I'm tempted to, using a drone is not allowed in natural parks," he replied, distancing himself from the group and heading toward his car.Caught in the wake of Blake's abrupt departure, Matt's curiosity got the best of him, prompting him to ask, "Where are you off to?"Sliding into the driver's seat and igniting the engine, Blake's response was concise, "City." The car smoothly pulled away, leaving an air of puzzled silence in its wake. The group exchanged glances, sharing their confusion over Blake's unexpected departure and the secrecy shrouding his actions."Maybe he's considering a visit to his office this time," George speculated, his voice tinged with uncertainty. He sou

The couple decided to leave the room and made their way downstairs, seeking solace in the family lounge.Outside the mansion, the first light of dawn painted the sky with delicate hues. Blake and his group emerged from the backdoor, weariness etched across their faces, overshadowed by an air of melancholy. Blake led the way, his shoulders slumped as he walked towards a plush love seat by the fireplace. He sat down heavily, turning away from prying gazes and closing his eyes in exhaustion. Andrew followed suit, his own fatigue apparent as he joined Blake in the lounge.Addressing Andrew, George, and Anne couldn't contain their worry. "Where is Lily?" they asked almost simultaneously, their voices revealing the depth of their concern.Heavy with regret, Andrew replied, "We deeply apologize. We didn't find Lily there. We believe Jake might have taken her, as we couldn't locate any trace of Jake or his men up there. Blake is devastated; he does

The Alpha and The Outcast 47 Lilys Victory over Jake
“Oh, I felt envious at how much you trusted him when you know him just recently. Lily, I grow up with him. I knew him inside and out. Your naivety will harm you more than I bullied you!"I don’t want to talk about him anymore. Let's talk about our own matters," Jake's voice grew stern and demanding, his tone carried an air of authority, demanding attention.Lily, unyielding in her resolve, responded, "There's nothing left to talk about," she emphasized, drawing a clear line in the sand.

The Alpha and The Outcast 46 The Chase
After Jake left Blake shackled at the cabin with Glenn and Liza on guard, he aimlessly snipped on Lily’s faint scents. Then he heard a solitary howl from a distance.
