The whole pack house was busy with decorations and arrangements just as Alpha Neil said it would be a grand party. Every other Alpha from different packs would attend the party. So the arrangements should be the best.Ethan returned to the pack house in the early hours. He ran the whole night in the forest to ease his anger. He was a dominant Alpha. His wolf did not like it when he saw that their mate was getting close to another man.Last night, Ethan's wolf was on the verge of taking control over him. But he somehow controlled himself and went for a run."Where were you, Ethan?" Ella asked him as she noticed him coming inside the pack house."Mom, you woke up at this hour?" He asked her and composed himself so that his mother would not understand his mood.Ella walked toward him and stroked his hair. "Why do you look so gloomy and tired? You were outside the whole night?""Yeah, mom. I just wanted to run for some time." He replied and looked away from her gaze."Did you have a figh
Allison combed her hair as she stared at herself in the mirror.Ella sent her a gorgeous gown for tonight. It was a stunning red gown embellished with white stones and gleaming pearls.She did not appear to be a common young woman but rather a noble lady who had become mature enough to gracefully carry herself.She then looked at the setting she had chosen for her hair while laying the comb down on the dressing table. She had two braids coming down from the upper two sides and joining in the middle of her head. Her hair was down.She got to her feet and slipped on her red high heels. She gave herself one more look in the mirror before saying,"Tonight, everything will be changed. He will leave the pack tonight. I will call off the wedding tonight as well."She emerged from her bedroom and made her way downstairs. She looked up to see her mother and father standing at the door.After walking up to them, she announced, "I am ready."Her father gave her a glance and then said, "I think i
Allison's eyes were fixed on Ryan. The alphas of different packs gathered around him just to greet him once.He was the main character of the party. In fact, he was the most wanted man in all of the packs.She could see others' behavior in front of him. At such a young age, he built such a massive castle that others could not even dare touch one stone of it.He was the Alpha with the most success and an accomplished businessman who effortlessly maintained his dominance over them."Did the two of you have a fight?" Allison heard Ella's question."No. We can't fight. He believes that I am not strong enough to converse with him. Therefore, the conflict is not even close to it." While she was looking at Ryan, she whispered."What are you saying? Did Ethan say that? I am going to grab his ear and tell him that he needs to apologize to you.""Ethan?" Allison asked and came back to her senses.She turned to Ella and smiled at her. "Don't do anything. I was just-""No, Allison. I think it's n
Everyone started to feel nervous. Ethan frowned at Ryan, thinking he was talking about him. But his eyes fell on Easton, who looked anxious."How is your beta? I had heard that he was ill." Ryan put the question to Easton."He is doing well at this time." Easton gave his response. His tone was full of anger."You need to provide additional training for your officials. Take a look at my officials. They have the appearance of college students, yet when it comes to fighting, they can even kill the head Alphas if I order them. Well, not by tricking them into some kind of car accident, you know. I meant the real fight." Ryan said and winked at Easton.His statements took Ethan, Allison, and Wade by complete and utter surprise. They were aware that he was referring to the accident that Easton staged in order to take Ethan's life."Were you talking about me?" Beta Max came there with Teresa.Allison looked at her and saw she was wearing a beautiful blue dress."Of course. Come here. Meet Alp
Allison was observing the two brothers talking with each other. She felt relieved that at least they were having a conversation. However, as she watched Ryan walk away from Ethan, she focused her attention on Ethan. She saw him ordering another drink as though he were becoming agitated."What did they talk about that made him angry?"As she looked around, she noticed that people were beginning to dance in the empty space in the center of the room. Music was played to let them enjoy the dance and the party.After a short while, Ethan walked away from the bar area and approached Allison."Let's dance."All of a sudden, he said and extended his hand toward her.Allison was taken aback by it. She cast a quick peek around them and observed that everyone was staring at them.She could not deny him in front of them. She held his hand. He took her out onto the dance floor, where another couple greeted them with a friendly smile. Allison flashed a grin right back at them.Ethan took a light hol
Allison brought Ethan to the garden, which was far away from where the party was going."Ethan, what was that?" Allison questioned him while she was keeping an eye on him."What are you talking about?" He asked with confusion in his eyes."Don't tell me any lies. Tell me what is going on in your head.""Allison, I wanted to talk to you about it." He said with a lower tone.He appeared to be trying to avoid looking into her eyes by lowering his head.Allison moved toward him and took hold of his arm. "Look at me. What's wrong with you, Ethan? What brought on that strange stare in Elora's direction? It has been brought to my attention that the way you behave in front of her is different. And the way you reacted last night, that was totally unexpected.""I am lost, Allison." He let out and moved away from her.She was stunned by his words. "Why?"He turned around and began to walk inside the garden. She followed him."Ethan, you are doing wrong. She is engaged to Ryan at this time. How i
Allison turned to him. She was too shocked to react to his words."What?"Ethan nodded his head. "I am feeling broken inside each day I see her with him. I realized our bond the moment she came to the pack house."Allison recalled the day when Ryan had come to visit the pack. That day, she had seen Ethan behaving strangely. But that time, she thought he was jealous of Ryan and did not like that Ryan turned out to be so powerful.'So it was because he was feeling the mate bond?' she thought."I tried to stay away from her. But the mate bond is something that can't let me stay away. Her scent always pulled me toward her. I could stop my wolf before I rejected you. But this time, my wolf became out of control, and my heart reacted the same as well.""Why didn't you tell me about it all these times?""I thought I could handle myself. I did not want you to let go."Allison tightened her fists as she stared at him."Why were you so adamant to be with me?""I can't tell you why. I am not all
Allison came out of the garden. She was frightened for the future.What she had just heard was something that could cause a clash between two brothers."He knows about it. Then why didn't he let Elora go?" She questioned herself as she made her way into the hallway.She did a quick scan of the area.'I think I should talk to him about it.' She thought and tried to find Ryan.When her eyes found him, she was a little surprised. She saw Ryan talking with Alpha Neil.She stood in a corner and did not go to disturb the father-son's conversation."Where were you?" She heard a voice.She turned and replied, "Teresa, I was in the garden.""The way you dragged Ethan like that! What happened?""Teresa, I am feeling scared."Teresa wrapped her arm around Allison and rubbed her arm. "Why? Are you okay? Did your father continue to make an effort to exert his influence over you? Or is Ethan more adamant than ever about keeping you?"Allison shook her head and responded,"Tess, he confessed to me a
