Chapter Five

[Dante]

Since I was young, I've learned to always follow my instincts, always follow my thoughts and not to be influenced by others.

Leading the Blackpack and making sure everyone gets a good life was my mission until I met her. She was a spendthrift woman. She often spent her father's money on materialistic things, crazy things that weren't even useful.

Her parents advised her on several occasions but she never listened.

Her father was a very wise man in the pack. He acquired all of his properties through hard work and luck. He was one of the richest and prominent werewolves, respected by everyone but his daughter always manages to give him a bad name. She was a stain to his white.

When I was young, my grandfather wanted her to be my Luna and it was fine by me. She was innocent and cool to be with. She was naive and very nice until she traveled and became a dissolute and a spendthrift.

Only God knows why and what made her change. Shortly after she came back, her father died and she immediately placed all her father's properties for sale. As the Greenwoods possess some archaic and ancient properties of the Blackpack, I had to purchase all immediately before they fell into the wrong hands and caused chaos in the pack. The properties could fall into those malicious wolves which could cause disability and chaos to a pack I've worked my life to maintain peace and order for.

I mean who wouldn't want to buy Greenwood's property?

After she did that I called off the whole betrothed thing. I can't marry someone who acts like this. She thinks only about herself and nobody else. I want a Luna who would think about the people and also bring progress to the pack, not someone who would ruin my life's effort. She didn't even consider her mother who just lost her husband before selling off her father's property. That shows how thick-skinned and evil she was.

I also believe in marrying a woman bestowed on me by the moon goddess and not some betrothed.

On the day the papers were supposed to be cleared, Daniel announced to me that she was dead. Honestly, I was happy. A bad egg in our pack is dead and there'd be peace. I had to just go there as the Alpha of the pack, to show my concern that we just lost a member of the pack only for me to get to the scene and she opened her eyes.

"The evil ones don't die easily," I remembered my dad's favorite word. He always says this whenever there's a problem in the pack and it's difficult for us to get rid of it.

Even after going to her house to clear off the properties but pretending to go check up on her, her personality changed. This wasn't the Kali I knew. Even when outsiders came to insult her, she was calm. All she did was take glances at me which was annoying. She was just staring at me at any opportunity she got which just made me hate her more. It made me so uncomfortable and angry.

I didn't want to shout or yell at her because I liked her mother and my identity as an Alpha wouldn't allow me to act rationally as I liked.

After getting home to cool down. I got a call from her mother asking me to help her find a job for her daughter.

"What? What's going on? Kali wants to work?" I asked myself. I was flabbergasted. What in the hell is going on? Kali has never worked for anything in her life. All she does is spend her father's hard-earned money. Sit at home all day and stress all of the servants.

"Did her experience with death change her personality?" I asked myself.

I lied to her mother saying I had no job for her daughter even though I had many.

She begged me but I had no option but to get her a job. Raven has always been such a good woman. She was a good support to me from when I was young till now.

I agreed to get her daughter a job and I hung up.

"Why does she want to work under me? She could easily get a job elsewhere. Why under me?" I asked myself as I stroked my chin.

"Isn't she leaving the Blackpack anymore? Why did she sell off her father's property just to work for me?" I asked myself.

I was getting confused as to what her motive was and I had to find out.

***The next day***

She came into my office all dressed up and I almost laughed. "She doesn't even know the kind of work I want to give to her," I said to my evil self.

"You'll be our office assistant. Another word for cleaner and messenger. You'll clean up the mess in my office and you'll also help me get some kind of stuff or submit some documents whenever I need you." I said with a straight face. I raised my head to see her reaction, hoping she would leave my office right away. I didn't want her anywhere around me or my office. I just accepted so her mother could let me be and when she rejected my offer, it wouldn't be my fault again, it would be hers.

"That's great. When do I start?" She asked and I opened my mouth.

"Ka Kali!" I stammered.

"What? You want me to clean, I'll clean." She said and I stared at her.

"What do you want? What's your motive? You want to be my cleaner?" I questioned just to be sure again. This isn't the kali I know.

"Isn't it just to clean? I'll do it." She nodded.

I have to find out what her intention is. Something is wrong. She's after something and I have to find out before she ruins me and my pack.
