Chapter 218
The large door is pulled back and a female around my age gives us a warm smile.
“Can I help?”
“I’m looking for the Alpha.” I keep my voice light.
“He is in a meeting right now.” Her eyes glance at a simple wristwatch. “He should be done soon if you are willing to wait.”
“Sure.” I return her smile, she was too oblivious to notice it was as fake as the designer blouse she is wearing.
We are waiting for less than ten minutes before someone leaves the office. A few more minutes pass and a large man steps out. A navy blue suit that had been tailored to fit him perfectly.
Loose blonde curls sit on top of his head, his green eyes bright like emeralds
“Hi, I’m Alpha Ryan, how can I help you?” He is friendly and welcoming, not like so many other Alpha’s that I had come across. It was unusual and a little off putting.
“I believe you know Jenson.” I point to the man at my side.
The Alpha smiles as he looks him up and down, “You’ve certainly landed on your feet. How’s your brother?”
“Good. He is a father now.”
I was amazed by Jensons ability to push down the hatred he had developed. Normally he couldn’t hide a single drop.
“Really?” He looked around to the woman who had let us in. “Please send my congratulations to Dane and his mate.”
She scribbles something down.
“I know Roan and Dane had their issues, but I don’t intend on following in his footsteps. Sorry,” He turns back to me, “I didn’t catch your name.”
“Blair.”
“Please, do come in.”
He waits for us to settle in the chairs before he asks again how he can help.
There was no point in dragging it out. “I hear that you have a little problem.”
His eyes flash to me and his friendly demeanour drops. “I don’t know what you are talking about.” his eyes moved to Jenson, “If this is some sort of shitty plot to try and force me into a new contract then you need to leave. I just said I don’t want any problems with Dane.”
“Nothing to do with contracts. I… We are aware that a couple of girls have gone missing, only to turn up dead.”
His face hardens. “How do you know that?”
“I have my resources.” I had no plans to get two young girls into trouble.
“You are not the first pack to have trouble.” Jenson adds. “It killed my mate and then tried to kill my sister.” His composure doesn’t break and it makes my heart flurry. I was so proud of how far he had come, even if he still had a long way to go.
“It’s a beast.” Alpha ryan mutters
I nod and give him a crash course on Rogues. I knew it was a lot of information to take in. To learn that there are more than just Wolves that can shift.
“You think you can deal with it?” He asks.
“I’ve killed several others like him.”
“And what do you want in return?”
“Nothing, well nothing other than food, hot water and somewhere to rest.”
If he had come to me, I would want a lot more, but I had gone to him so it was hardly fair to charge him for it.
