SALLY'S POV I woke up the next morning feeling very different. This was probably the effect of what had happened the previous night. I was still wrapped up in alpha Derek's arm, and he was still asleep. I wanted to stand up from the bed and resume my daily activities, but I didn't know how to break free from alpha Derek's grip. Plus I was also enjoying the comfort of his warm embrace. "I love you", I whispered to him. I raised myself up a bit and pecked his lips. I took his thick arm away from my body and placed it on the bed. I walked into the bathroom for a quick shower, afterwards I returned to the room to dress myself up. After dressing up, I brushed my teeth, and decided to sit on the bed for a bit. While I was seated on the bed, my eyes caught a white paper lying on the floor, I thought at first that it must be something important for alpha Derek, but on a second thought he wouldn't throw it of it was important. I haven't known alpha Derek for top long, but I could vouch
SALLY'S POV I stood up from where I was seated reluctantly, giving alpha Derek enough space to also stand up to his feet. He walked over to his wardrobe and quickly wore a more covered dress. He previously had only his boxer on. He walked back to me, and I was fully dressed for breakfast. He stretched his hand towards me, and I took it. The both of us walked out of the room together, holding hands. I tried this my dissatisfaction, so he wouldn't notice it, I didn't want to spoil his happy mood too soon. As we walked into the dining hall, the stares that followed. It was normal. All eyes were always on us, but this time, it seemed different, as if they had an ulterior motive, why they were staring at us in such a manner. I felt as if they had an idea about what happened last night, I didn't know if I was seeing it that way because I was guilty, or if they truly did know what happened. My legs wobbled as I walked, I tried not to think about them, after all, I wasn't one of his se
SALLY'S POV Alpha Derek and I had another round of sex, and then we fell to the bed tiredly. We fell into a deep sleep only to wake up to chaos in the pack house. I woke up even before alpha Derek did, so I tapped Jim twice. He stood up and rubbed his eyes. He jerked up from the bed hurriedly and began putting on his clothes. "What is going on outside?" He asked no one in particular. I also stood up from the bed and quickly wore my dress. After dressing up the both of us walked outside to meet angry mobs, with sticks and different weapons, they were shouting at the top of their voice, while Micheal, alpha Derek's most trusted beta was trying to calm them down. On sighting alpha Derek and I, their annoyance increased, and they began charging towards us. "What is going on here?" Alpha Derek asked. His guards quickly covered us and began clearing the mobs hitting them badly and killing some of them, they were insistent at first, on coming closer to us, but when they saw the guar
SALLY'S POV The council of the elders of the supernatural and night-walking creatures stepped into the chaos. They ordered that the youth leave while they spoke to Alpha Derek alone, and after having a chat with Alpha Derek, they would invite them for a meeting. That was probably when Alpha Derek realized the case was serious. The youths began to leave in twos and groups, while some were hesitant for a while. The elders of the council of the night-walking creatures and supernatural had to insist that they leave. They did leave afterward and the elders of the stencil and night-walking creatures decided to wait for them to leave the place completely before approaching Alpha, Derek. "We have to discuss something very important right now, and we can't do it standing", the eldest among them said. "Let's go to my office", he replied. Alpha Derek took my hand and was about to leave when one of the elders stopped him. "Will she go with us?" He asked. "To discuss crucial matters concer
ALPHA DEREK'S POV "Why do you seem lost?" I asked Sally. She seems withdrawn as if she wasn't listening to me, as if I wasn't even there. "I am sorry. I was just a bit bothered about you", she replied. "What happened at the meeting today? I'm sure you need rest, why not come over to the room so I'll give you a massage?" She asked me. I knew she didn't want me to punish the servants. I wouldn't give her that, at least not today. I was accused of something huge, they had the guts to bring in the letter later, and still had the effrontery to enter my room and pick it up, then trash it. They didn't even bother that I was going to kill them if I found out. I could remember vividly that I had placed the letter neatly on the table for reading later. How come it wasn't there anymore? "I was just accused wrongly of looting money and sending it to my parents abroad, I was accused of being the reason everything became expensive and you expect me to smile over it? Come on. Sally, if I had
ALPHA DEREK'S POV "I did", I heard Sally's voice from behind and turned around to look at her. There was no way it was true, that Sally had thrown away my letter and I was busy blaming my domestic servants. "Did you? Or are you only trying to save them?" I asked Sally. "It's not worth it you know", I said to her. "I did", she replied and it didn't seem like she was lying. "Leave!" I ordered the servants angrily and they hurried away from my presence. "I am sorry", she apologized. "I didn't know that the letter was important to you, I saw it lying on the floor and I thought you were done with it, or it wasn't important anymore, I am truly sorry, I____" "Shush", I said cutting her short. "It was my fault, I didn't place it properly", I replied. "Yet", she was saying but I stopped her. "Yet I blamed everyone else but myself for the missing letter. I am sorry for keeping you under tension, it wasn't my intention to do so. I am sorry for blaming everyone but myself, I am sorry
ALPHA DEREK'S POV The accounting book was brought out, and we decided to go through it together, and truly it had been tampered with. Huge figures have been moved, the weekly supplies to the orphanage and the whole lot have been changed. A whole lot have been looted from the account, and I didn't even know where to begin to search for how the money had disappeared from the account. "How did this happen?" I asked the three of them yet none gave me a reply. "Micheal, I am asking you a simple question, how did this happen?" I asked raising my voice this time. "__ I__ do not have any idea", he stuttered. "Karen?" I turned to my accountant. "I don't know either", she replied. "You?" I asked my secretary. "I have no idea", she replied. I heaved a big sigh. It was funny but it wasn't. The ridiculing amount of money that has been looted, the money that had been stored in the account for years, a whole lot of money that should be used for the benefit of the pack. I have failed the
ALPHA DEREK'S POV The third day had passed, and yet there was no news from the three people I have placed in charge of the accounts. I have been trying to cover up for them. The people and the elders have been asking questions. I was no longer myself, I was getting in and lane, and the issue was killing me gradually. I promised to display the account on a flat screen for the elders to see on the third day, and it was finally here, yet I had nothing ready for them to see when they came. The figures on the rough sheet, the opening balance, the trial balance, and the main figure in the account weren't corresponding in any way. I lay in my room worried, Sally had left the house with Sarah to get a few things for the house. I had insisted that she stayed back and let the servants do their job, but she insisted that she was bored and that she wanted to go with Sarah. I didn't want to argue with her, and I didn't want her to feel as if I was imposing things on her as well, so I decide
