Please Alpha, I love him.

Everything seems to be snowballing and I’m not hopeful that anything Leon has told me will save Anna.
Her luck might have finally run out, I head out of the basement before I smash Leon’s face into the
floor. Each time I look at him I see all the Pack BBQ’s, all the times Anna. looked after the kids so he
could study and all those times I supported him. I even pushed my own Beta into a relationship with
him, I think that’s what angers me the absolute most. My Beta was already fragile about his S**uality
and now I can’t even begin to imagine the inner anguish he’s feeling.
Once I’m securely in my office I don’t head for the liquor bar or to sit at my desk to start making phone
calls. I instead turn to the solid wall near my door and slam my fist into it as hard as I can, the wall is so
solid it doesn’t even creak. It feels so good I do it again and again until I feel the skin of my knuckles
split open, I keep going until a soft knock comes at my door.
“Pis s off,” I shout out as I slam my fist into the wall for a final time. I know I should like an Alpha di ck
but right now I need to be alone so I can sort out my own head.
“Is that anyway to speak to your mot…oh my Goddess what have you done?” The sound of my
mother’s voice shocks me so much I don’t even bother to hide my hand from her. “You silly man, sit
down while I take a look at that.” I’m in such shock that my mother is standing in front of me that I let
the tiny woman actually lead me over to a chair so she can inspect my hand.
“I’m fine,” I snap while snat ching my hand from her.

“No, you’re not.” She actually puts her hands on her hips and narrows her eyes at me, “you think I’ve
just raced from one end of the country to the other for the good of my da mn health?” She pulls my
hand back into her grasp and gives me that look only mother’s can master, the one that says ‘don’t
push me unless you want a good slap across the as s.’
“Where were you? I needed your guidance.” I say softly as she starts to swipe at my knuckles with a
tissue she pulled from her pocket.
“I was with the Elders, which I’m sure Darryl already told you?” I nod my head at her, “then I stayed with
Darryl. I’m sorry Henry but I couldn’t come home and see that woman destroy everything I’ve helped to
build.” I can understand this, my mother and father were a force to be reckoned with back in the day
and they dragged Swiftmane out of the dirt and made us a Pack to be proud of.
“I’m sorry. I’ve let you both down.” I tell her as she lets go of my hand.
“You haven’t let anyone down, you’ve been played like a puppet on a string. When I heard Faye and
Anna had gotten into a fight I went and met Elder Thomas, he’s already with Anna.” My eyes grow wide
at this, there’s already an Elder with my mate. I jump up from my chair and turn towards the door, I stop
when my mother puts her hand on my back.
“I have to get to Anna, I can’t let her die alone.” I’m not ashamed to say there is a lump in my throat and
I’m doing everything I can to hold back tears. The mere idea of losing Anna to something as permanent
as death is terrifying to me.
“He wont kill her, he just wants to talk to her. He’s rather fond of her actually,” I release a breath I didnt
realise I was holding until my mother said Anna wont die today. “He’s come to help you resolve this
situation with as little damage as possible.”

“He won’t kill her?” I ask her to be sure I heard her right, “he might get Darryl to do it.”
“I don’t know where he will fall but either way your mate won’t die today. Right now he’s gathering
information, he has this really weird knack for knowing things before we tell him.” my mother leans
against my desk and crosses her arms across her chest. “How’s James?”
“I don’t even know,” I tell her as I slump back into the chair. “He really was growing fond of Leon,
maybe it was even more than that. I think this betrayal will cut him deep.”
“Will you have him killed?” My mother has never been one to mix her words, she has always shooted
straight to the point.
“I should.” I tell her truthfully. “I should have the Pack take their pound of flesh but I don’t know if I can.”
My mother just nods her head
at me.
“You will make the right choice, I’m certain of it. Just listen to those around you and this Theo
Greylone? Where is he?” I chuckle at this.
“He’s in the dam ned wind with his sons, we couldn’t even find a scent of him. Rick is out with warriors
now trying to track him down. Again my mother just nods her head, it’s like she’s trying to suck in as
much information as she possibly can. I look behind me when I see her eyes shoot towards the door.
There in the doorway is a very depressed looking James, his eyes lighten a little when he sees my
mother.
“Momma Beth,” he looks from me to my mother, he seems to decide something and instantly walks
over to her pulling her into a bone crushing hug. “You’ve been missed.” I hear him whisper to her.
“I’ll leave you men to it, I need to go and find my grandson. It’s been too long since I held him,” my
mother pats James on the arm before.

leaving my office, closing the door behind her. I don’t miss the pointed look she gives me, it’s a ‘listen’
kind of look.
“Alpha…” James starts the second the door is closed. I hold my hand up at him, cutting him off. If he’s
using formal titles then I know why he’s here.
“Don’t ask me to spare him punishment, James. I can’t and I won’t, not even for you.” I tell him so he
knows exactly how I feel.
“I know he has to be punished but I love him.” I’m shaking my head before he’s even finished speaking,
I move from my chair so quickly he actually flinches from me.
“Da mn it James, da mn you.” I walk over to the whiskey and pour us both a double finger glass, “what
do you suggest I do to a lying ba stard who has betrayed every member of this Pack?” I hand him a
glass and sit back in the chair I vacated. James is just standing in the middle of the room like he’s not
sure where he fits.
“Banish him,” James says before downing his glass and putting it on the desk.
“Banishment?” I ask him, shocked he even suggested it. “And then. what? You defect from the Pack
and go rogue to be with him?” James shakes his head at me.
“How could I be with him after all of this? I just can’t live in a world. where he’s dead. He’s the nearest
thing I will ever get to a mate. I will never know that feeling, not ever. There isn’t anyone else for me, I
know it. All I ask is that you don’t kill him. for me?” James doesn’t wait for my answer, he turns from me
and leaves the office softly closing the door behind him, I didn’t miss the tears on his face.
What a mess, I have dead Luna, a mate in the medical centre being questioned by an Elder and now a
heartbroken Beta. I don’t think I can

just let Leon live even if it is banished from the Pack, I can feel the need to kill him in my very blood.
“James doesn’t have to know he’s dead. Banish him and then kill him. away from the Pack.’ Leo tells
me in a low growl.
“I can’t lie to him,’ I answer him straight away. ‘He’s not just my Beta, he’s my brother in everything but
blood.”
‘He doesn’t have to know you lied,’ Leo is ever the optimist.
‘Haven’t you learned yet? Secrets don’t stay hidden, not ever.’ I tell my wolf.
‘Just think about it,’ to be honest now he’s said it I doubt I will think of anything else.
