Grayson headed directly to his office, and as he approached the entrance, he turned and firmly said to Beta Luke who was still following him, “I would like to be alone.” Beta Luke respectfully bowed and left Grayson to be alone. Diana tried to follow Grayson into the office, but he closed the door in her face and locked it from inside.Grayson vented his frustration by pounding his fist on the wall as soon as he entered his office. “'What is happening to me?” he thought. “Why did that girl affect me so deeply?”“She is our mate,” He heard Kyle saying to him.“I don't want a mate,” Grayson replied to his wolf but a heavy feeling settled in his heart as the words left his lips.His hands trembled, his heart pounded erratically, and sweat glistened on his forehead as fear consumed him. His worst nightmare was unfolding before his eyes and it appeared he had no control over it.“Damn the fucking bond” he cursed out.He wanted to kick her out of the pack to never see her again, but he

“How can someone from a different Pack suddenly be my brother's mate? What if this is all a deception? What if she intentionally came here to become his mate, and the bond was a ruse?” Diana expressed her concern with Lisa.“The mate bond did appear, Diana, there was no way she would come up with that,” Lisa stated.“What if she's using some kind of charm, Lisa? It just doesn't add up that a stranger is Grayson's mate," Diana questioned. “We have plenty of eligible and beautiful girls right here in the Silvermoon pack, so why would his mate come from a faraway pack?”“I trust that the moon goddess has her reasons for everything that happens. I believe that she is indeed Grayson's true mate. Perhaps the distance is why it took so long for Grayson to find his mate.” Lisa said.“For the first time in my life, I am happy Grayson rejected a girl. I couldn't bear to have her as my brother's wife and the Luna of Silvermoon,” Diana expressed.“Diana, please don't be so harsh. If they are tru

“Diana, she can't leave without Grayson's consent,” Lisa cried out.“Who says she can't? I am sure Grayson doesn't want to see her again,” Diana retorted.Lisa let out a sigh and gently pulled Diana outside.“Why are you acting this way, Diana? I know you as a kind and caring person. Why are you treating a stranger seeking asylum with disdain? Please, stop,” Lisa exclaimed.“I am doing this for you and my niece or nephew in your stomach. Grayson wouldn't mind her being gone, you saw him storm out of here earlier,” Diana stated.“Let it not be your call, let it be his, please,” Lisa pleaded.“Whatever, I have other things to do right now, are you coming with me?” Diana asked, avoiding any further discussion about Evelyn.“No, I'll stay here with Evelyn," Lisa declared."Suit yourself,” Diana replied before departing.“Hey, Lisa said to Evelyn as she walked back into the room.“Hi, I will take my leave now. Can you point me in the direction of the Pack's border?” Evelyn inquired.“Where

“Oh my goodness! Are you alright?” Evelyn gasped as she entered the kitchen and noticed Lisa's injured hand.“Oh, this? I accidentally cut myself,” Lisa explained, taken aback by Evelyn's sudden appearance in the kitchen.“Aw, poor you! You should be more careful,” Evelyn said sympathetically as she moved closer to Lisa to examine the wound.Lisa recoiled slightly, not wanting Evelyn to catch sight of the wound since it wasn't caused by a knife."No need to worry, I'm a wolf. It'll heal in no time," Lisa reassured.“Okay…” Evelyn responded, surprised by Lisa's sudden behavior.“What can I help you with?” Evelyn asked, offering to assist Lisa.“Do not bother yourself, please. Just relax, I'll take care of everything here,” Lisa responded warmly.“I hope you are not thinking I don't know how to cook because I used to be an Alpha's daughter,” Evelyn said jokingly."Oh no, not at all. You're my guest, so it's my pleasure to cook for you," Lisa replied graciously.“Alright, if you insist,”

“I came to tell you I am leaving and to thank you for your hospitality,” Evelyn said before turning to walk away with her heart broken by Grayson's attitude."Stop right there. What did you just say to me? Who did you say is pregnant with my child?" Alpha Grayson asked in bewilderment."Evelyn stopped and turned back to give Grayson a response, “Are you trying to act like you don't know? Your sister told me to leave because you have a chosen mate who is expecting your pup.”“Diana said that?” Grayson asked, puzzled by her sister's actions. She should have been the one convincing Evelyn to stay, not telling her to leave.Evelyn shook her head, puzzled by Grayson's apparent ignorance of the situation. She couldn't shake off the feeling that this was another attempt to humiliate her, so she made up her mind to leave.“Lisa, please show me to the main road. I am ready to leave now. I wished I had listened to you,” Evelyn said.“Alright,” Lisa, taken aback by Evelyn's abrupt outburst, resp

“He's too full of himself,” Evelyn remarked as she walked towards the border with Lisa."I did try to give you a heads-up," Lisa replied, a smug smile playing on her lips as she felt satisfied with Grayson's actions towards Evelyn.“No one has ever spoken to me like that," Evelyn confessed, her feelings hurt by the way Grayson had addressed her.“Sorry about that, it's not Grayson's fault. It is because of what he had been through,” Lisa pointed out.“What has he been through? What is going on with him? Did someone break his heart?” Evelyn asked, her curiosity piqued.“Well, something like that,” Lisa said and went further to explain what had happened to Grayson's father."Oh goodness! That's just awful," Evelyn exclaimed, an expression of shock on her face.“Yeah, Grayson has been treating ladies like trash since then,” Lisa continued, providing more insight.“How is his chosen mate handling the situation?” Evelyn inquired.Lisa let out a subtle breath, "Well…” But before she could c

“I am not lying, please believe me, Diaba, please,” Lisa pleaded desperately, her voice filled with anguish.“I believe you, Lisa. It is okay, stop crying. It is not good for the baby please,” Diana reassured.“I don't want anything from Grayson, I just want him to take responsibility for this child. I don't want to become a laughing stock in the pack for giving birth to a pup who has no father,” Lisa lamented.“That is never going to happen, Lisa, not on my watch,” Diana said.“He doesn't want the child, Diana, he doesn't,” Lisa continued crying, refusing to be consoled.“Lisa, please, stop crying. I already told you if he denies the pregnancy, I will report him to the council of elders,” Diana urged.“Council of elders!!” Beta Luke exclaimed and continued, “I will advise you not to do that, it will further escalate Grayson's anger. You know he hates the council of elders,” “If he continues to deny Lisa's child, I'm afraid I have no choice but to report him,” Diana stated firmly.“G

Grayson was walking through the woods, trying to unwind when he heard a faint cry. He decided to ignore it as he didn't expect anyone would be in the woods.Due to the presence of dangerous creatures in the woods, the pack members rarely ventured in alone.This was why Grayson loved coming into the woods. He found solace in the peace and quietness it offers.He heard the cry the second time, this time it was a little bit louder than the first one and the voice sounded familiar."Who could be out here in the woods at this time of the day?" Grayson said to himself as he made his way toward the direction from which the cry had originated.As he approached the direction in which the sound had come from, he caught sight of a familiar figure with brown hair“Evelyn?” Grayson muttered."Why is she in the woods?" Kyle said, feeling agitated at the sight of Evelyn.Grayson noticed Evelyn grappling to free herself from something, but he couldn't discern what it was from the considerable distanc

"That is why I said 'suspect,' Alpha Grayson. I haven't called her a criminal yet. Her ability to defend herself will prove whether she's innocent or not," Robert retorted sharply."Her innocence should not even be in question at this hearing. The trial should focus on whether she pushed Lisa or not. How did she become a suspect in a murder case that occurred while she was locked away in a cell?" Grayson said."Why are you speaking on her behalf, Alpha Grayson? Let her defend herself," James said.“I was not talking to you, James. I have the authority to speak on behalf of anyone I choose to. And as your Alpha, I command you to never speak out of turn during this hearing. You will only speak when you are asked to," Grayson declared authoritatively.The elders gasped in shock, their eyes widening and mouths slightly agape, exchanging uneasy glances.The air grew heavy with tension, their disbelief palpable as they processed the harsh reprimand directed at one of their own.

“What do they want this time?” Grayson muttered, a hint of disdain in his voice.“Lisa and Evelyn have been summoned as well,” Declan added.“Is the hearing now?” Grayson asked.“Yes, my Lord, it is,” Declan said.“Alright, you can go. We will join the elders shortly,” Grayson said, dismissing Declan with a wave of hand.“They must have heard about Clara's death, I think that's why they are summoning us,” Beta Luke said.“Clara? Who is that?” Diana inquired, raising her eyebrows.“The servant who claimed to have witnessed what happened between Lisa and Evelyn,” Beta Luke clarified.“Oh my goodness! She’s dead? How?” Diana gasped, covering her mouth in shock.Grayson rose to his feet with a steady, purposeful motion, his movements carrying a quiet intensity. His posture straightened, and his shoulders squared as he turned toward the door.“Are you leaving now?” Beta Luke asked.“Yes, let's get this done once and for all,” Grayson replied with a shrug.“Alright, I will go with you,” Bet

“What? Who killed her?” Grayson said, jumping on his feet.“I have no idea, Alpha, I'm as surprised as you are,” Beta Luke said.“Huh,” Grayson scoffed.“I am heading there right now, wanna come along?” Beta Luke asked.“Let's go,” Grayson said.Grayson and Beta Luke hurriedly left Grayson's office and headed towards the stream.Grayson and Beta Luke found that a large number of pack members had already gathered at the stream upon their arrival.“Who found her body?” Grayson asked.“My child and her friends did. They had come to the river to have a bath when they saw it,” Tara said, coming forward.“When was this?” Grayson inquired.“About thirty minutes ago. I informed the guards immediately after the children called my attention to it,” Tara said.“Where do you stay?” Grayson asked.“There,” Tara answered, pointing to her house.“Did you touch the body?” Grayson asked.“No, I couldn't go near it. I called the guards over immediately,” Tara said.“Alright, everyone step back,” Grayso

“How are you doing?” Beta Luke greeted Evelyn as he got to her cell.Evelyn slowly lifted her head from her curled-up position as she heard Beta Luke's voice.“Just here,” She replied wearily.“I am here to ask you a few questions,” Beta Luke said.“I am listening,” Evelyn said.“The night you claimed you fought with Lisa and ran away, did you shift into your wolf?” Beta Luke asked.“Yes, Lisa was the first person to shift to her wolf form then I did the same so I could get away from her,” Evelyn replied.“What color is your wolf?” Beta Luke inquired.“My wolf's fur is cream,” Evelyn replied.“What about Lisa's?” Beta Luke probed further.“I think hers is dark,” Evelyn answered.“Okay. I would love to also ask you a question and I would like you to tell me the truth,” Beta Luke said, his gaze strongly fixed on Lisa.“Okay,” Evelyn said, rolling her eyes as she wondered what his question might be.“Do you like Grayson?” Beta Luke asked.“Huh! Why do you ask?” Evelyn replied, a little b

“When was the last time you saw her?” Beta Luke inquired from Samantha, Clara's friend and fellow servant the next day.“Yesterday at the square but she disappeared immediately after we were dismissed by the Alpha,” Samantha explained.“Does she have a mate?” Beta Luke inquired.“Yes, she does but she's not there. I saw Thomas this morning and asked him if Clara was with him but he said he hadn't seen her,” Samantha said.“Alright, thank you, Samantha,” Beta Luke said as he stood to take his leave.As he was about to leave the servant's quarters, one of the young servants ran to him.“Beta Luke,” She called out.“Yes,” Beta Luke answered.“I have some information about Clara, I don't know if it might help,” she revealed.“Yes, go on,” Beta Luke said.“I saw Clara heading towards the east side of the pack yesterday after we were dismissed. I wanted to ask her where she was going but I got distracted by something else,” she explained.“The east side of the pack?” Beta Luke reiterated.“

“What? Are you saying that she is lying right now?” Diana asked.“I just asked for proof, you only told me she was pregnant. I never saw a test result or something?” Grayson said.“I don't have any test results, you can ask Lisa when she wakes up. Please excuse me, I have a patient to attend to,” Diana said.“I want you to collect the blood sample in Lisa's living room and test it to see if it's cat blood or not. I also want you to test the blood from the miscarriage if it's hers or not,” Grayson said.“Grayson! What do you need these things for?” Diana exclaimed.“Just do as I say,” Grayson said.“And if I do not, what will you do?” Diana asked.“It is not a request, Diana. I, Alpha Grayson of the Silvermoon pack, command you, Diana Woods, to do as I say. Failure to do this will be seen and treated as insubordination to your Alpha and the necessary punishment for that shall be meted out to you,” Grayson said authoritatively.“Did you just use the Alpha's command on me?” Diana exclaim

Lisa quickly opened her eyes as he heard Grayson open the door that led to the backyard, her heart raced fast and almost popped out of her chest.She sprang to her feet and tiptoed to the backyard to check what Grayson was doing there.Her heart jumped in anxiety when she saw him bending down over the grave where she had buried Clara.“What's he doing there?” Missy cried out.“I have no idea,” Lisa replied, trembling in fear.“We have to come up with an excuse or something. Grayson must never find out what we buried there else that will be the end for you and me,” Missy said.“Alpha Grayson,” Lisa called out. She pretended to be half awake and half asleep as she walked slowly to Grayson.“I thought you were fast asleep?” Grayson said, surprised to see Lisa awake.“I was but then I heard a noise in the house and it woke me up, then I heard someone open the backyard door and I was scared, I thought my house had been burgled,” Lisa explained, faking a yawn.“I came to check up on you,” G

Grayson stormed out of the cell and communicated with Diana through the mind link as he made his way out.“Where are you?” He asked."I am at home. Why do you ask?" Diana responded."Is Lisa with you?" Grayson inquired.“No, she is in her house,” Diana replied."Did you leave a sick person alone in her house all by herself?" Grayson asked, his tone filled with suspicion.“She insisted that she would like to go to her house. She said she doesn't want to go to the hospital or come to my house so I took her home and gave her some drugs that will help with the pain and make her sleep,” Diana explained.“And you left her alone,” Grayson queried.“I came home to get some food and clothes. I will go back to her house to be with her shortly. What's with all these questions, Grayson?” Diana inquired, sounding infuriated.“Nothing, just checking up on Lisa,” Grayson said.“Since when did you care?” Diana said.Grayson disconnected the mind link, ignoring Diana's last statement, and made his way

“Why are you locking her up?” Kyle protested as Beta Luke led Evelyn away.“Can't you see I am doing that to protect her until I get to the bottom of this? Do you want the wolves to lynch her, can't you see how agitated they are?” Grayson retorted sharply.“The party is over, return to your houses. Beta Luke and I will investigate this matter and decide on what to do,” Alpha Grayson said, addressing the pack members.The wolves let out a sad howl, expressing their discontent with the way the festival celebration had ended.One by one, they began to depart from the square, whispering amongst themselves about how Alpha Grayson must be truly cursed for all these events to be befalling him.“Take Lisa away. Give her all the necessary medications to ensure she is okay,” Grayson said to Diana and left the square for the cell. He met Beta Luke on the way.“I have locked her up,” Beta Luke informed.“Yes, show me to her cell,” Grayson commanded.“This way,” Beta Luke said.“Did you believe sh
