Captive Of The Alpha
Chapter 7

Leoxi read the letter that had come into his hands. As the twin brother of the alpha and Commander of the pack, he had more responsibilities than he wanted in his life. His brother had less time than he did, so he had no right to complain, even now he knew he was planning well for the blow they would deal to the gray pack.

He ran his hand through his hair tousling it. He was a bit overwhelmed with the new events. What the hell were those wolves thinking doing that to an omega? And a pure one to conclude. Didn’t they know they were as strange as albino wolves. With the ability to reproduce in large numbers, their bodies were hardy enough to withstand giving birth three times as many times as a normal wolf, who only got her heat every 100 years. What wolf wouldn’t want multiple pups with his female, was his greatest longing.

He read the letter again, concentrating on the most important item on his itinerary. He recognized the handwriting of that wolf prince named Nicholas, brother of the two young men his twin had locked up in the other wing of the mansion. The directions for attacking the pack in three days’ time were written one after the other. The messenger at the moment was resting with his eyes closed on a couch in front of him. For the time being he could not return to his own. They were gambling everything with this intervention, even the separation of several families if the plan went wrong.

The multiple rumors of the exploitative system in the gray pack were more than rumored, even if no wolf from the pack would confirm it. The abuse of the puppies, the raped she-wolves, the males on the verge of madness, the lack of food and the poverty of the weakest were some of the things that were being said.

The Grand Council had called the alpha to account, but he had managed to escape unscathed, something that had stung most of the other alphas deeply. So many mysteries surrounded that pack that it was impossible to know what was true and what was a lie.

Alan and Noa looked at each other doubtfully. What the hell was this man asking them? What was he asking them to give him to his mother? They both frowned, annoyed, this was unheard of.

Hades only looked at their body language and knew that they didn’t like anything about his statement, which was logical. In the end, with everything that was happening behind their backs, he would be the winner and would get everything, but he wanted to know their attitude in order to save her.

Noa bit her l*p

-Our mother will get out of one prison only for another,” he said more to himself than to the others.

-I never said I would lock her up or subdue her. I am going to save your whole herd, what guarantee do I have that after my effort they will follow me, only with the old queen on my side, they will obey me.

The brothers found themselves at a crossroads. His words were absolutely right, but what would their mother think of all that, she had already been captive for so long that they did not want the same thing to happen again. On the other hand, if they did not accept, she would not leave that place. Hades was known for being benevolent, they hoped that this time they would not make a mistake with the choice.

The alpha plopped down on his bed after finishing all the day’s business. He was beyond exhausted. Organizing everything meticulously was stressful and even more so when he was a perfectionist. He didn’t want anything to go wrong. The rewards would be many, including the possibility of having offspring. If no one was able to have a child from him, perhaps a fertile omega like the former queen was the most reliable way.

He closed his eyes and his memory went back in time. He remembered when the late alpha and his queen had come to visit him, that would be the last time he would see them. A minimal delegation had accompanied him and what stood out the most was the only little girl who had attended. She couldn’t have been more than 10 years old with short hair, tousled chocolate-colored waves, a giggly expression and beautiful big violet eyes, which to this day he could still describe. I hadn’t paid any attention to her, but who would have guessed that she would be the ruler of her pack later on. No one.

He had been invited to the marriage as a formality, but he was traveling at the time. The image of a childish girl was the only one that ephemerally remained in his head. If he had been told that the present self would be asking her for him, he wouldn’t have believed it, but that was life, going around in circles. He only hoped that at least her physique would be pleasing enough to please him.
