“This still doesn’t answer my question or their question.” Alpha Preston states.
“Alpha, this is your territory and every Pack-member has to answer to you. I, on the other hand, am a Squad Captain for the Elders and I don’t owe you or anyone else an explanation.” I say before I get up.
“Jesper, did you place the files in the library?” I ask him and he already knows what my next move will be.
” I will run up to get them, meet you in the library in a few minutes.” Jesper answers and walks out of the dining room to get the files from the Alpha floor.
I don’t mind that someone wants answers, but no one will ever tell mehow to do my job.
“Preston, don’t.” I hear Luna Pearl say with a soft growl. “Captain Dallas is right, she doesn’t owe anyone an explanation and the three of you are going to drop this. Am I making myself clear?”
Sounds like one pissed off Luna to me and 1 am glad that I am not on the receiving end of her anger.
“Good, glad that this is settled.” I hear and I can only assume that all three of them showed her that they understood her underlying threat.
“Captain Dallas, if there is anything you need, just ask.” An Omega says while I walk out of the dining room.
“Some coffee would be nice.” I whisper in her direction and I get a Small smile from her.
I walk into the library on the ground floor and I am pleasantly surprised to find a very bright room, not unlike most Pack libraries that have dark furniture or little natural light in the room or even a combination of both.
To my right there are floor to ceiling windows that go onto the left side of the room, on the left side of the room there are three windows and the rest of that wall is covered with bookshelves.
There are bookshelves mounted on the wall to the left and right of the double entry doors and many standing bookshelves spread across the room. Different sizes of sitting spaces are in between the standing bookshelves, some spaces are for just one or two people and only two spaces are big enough to hold a large group of people.
I walk over to the sitting arrangement by the window, the table is big enough for the files I need to go through and I enjoy the view I have of the backyard.
A knock on the door is heard before it slowly opens and the sameOmega from earlier walks in with a tray, a smile forms on my face when I see the coffee on the tray she is holding.
“Thank you, I am going to need that.” I say as she sets the tray down on the table.
Jesper passes her as she walks out of the library and Belinda gives her a rather strange look, almost as if she wants to ask the Omega something.
“What is it, Belinda?” I ask, once the door has closed behind the Omega.
“If she is in the room, I suggest you don’t mention anything important.
She was once the Omega that served the Beta family and she still reports to Madeline.” Belinda says.
“Remind me to tell that to Darius and Daxton. It might explain a few things to them about the past, because I doubt that there have never been moments that they wondered how their Mother knew certain things.” I respond.
Belinda leaves me and Jesper to our task, one l am not particularly looking forward to and one I hope will be over soon.
Darius’ p.o.v.
Damn it. We really pissed off Dallas by telling Preston that she had refused to answer our question and now we can’t even go to see her.
The library on the ground floor is for all Pack-members and going there to see Dallas would mean that our Mother would find out that we have an interest in her.
“Have the three of you lost your minds?” Pearl asks the moment the door to the Alpha office has closed and we all know that she is not expecting an answer from us, it is just her way of telling us that she is going to bite our heads off.
“She doesn’t have to answer your questions, Preston. First of all, you are not her Alpha and secondly, she is a Squad Captain.” Pearl says as
‘she sits down in an armchair and we can hear Preston mumble.
“As for the two of you, I suggest that you start thinking real hard about taking a chosen Mate. If you can’t let her do her job, the way she has done it until now, then you will lose her before a bond can be formed.
Dallas is Captain for a reason and you better keep that in mind.” Pearl says, while she Ipoks from Daxton to me and back again.
“I will see if I can get her up to the Alpha floor for lunch and you make sure that you have found a way to apologize to her, that goes for all three of you.” Pearl growls, before she gets up and walks out of the office.
“What she said.” Ruth states, before she follows Pearl out of the office.
“I am with Pearl and Ruth on this. I thought the three of you had a brain up there, guess I was mistaken.” Rayden says, but he stays seated.
“Oh, Fuck.” Preston says from behind his laptop. “We have an invitation to Alpha Leon’s trial.”+15 Bonus
We walk around his desk to read the invitation and Rayden sighs in relief because he gets to stay home with Ruth.
