SWNOVELS Chapter Bond 125
Chapter 0125
Hector POV
It is late, or early... either way we've not slept and we are sitting in Beckett's office as he shows us the borders to his lands on a map.
Alora went to bed hours ago, I've not even had a chance to speak with her alone. She wasn't at dinner, and barely spoke to me before retiring upstairs. She was ignoring me, as was Kaia.
I had so many questions, how did they find each other How did she find out Beckett was her father...how were they separated at birth....
"Kaia, is that you?" I hear Beckett call out to a creak on the stairs.
"Yes Father..." I glance at the grandfather clock in Beckett's office, 3am...she should have been back hours ago.
She was also trying to avoid me.
Beckett doesn't push her to come in which frustrates me, I wanted to see her...to make sure she was okay.
She was thrown around the battle field even though she had put up a good fight...she should really be checked on also.
Where Kaia fails to enter, this Beta Samson seems to take her place. He walks into the office, standing by Beckett's side in an instant.
"Did she get seen to?" Alpha Beckett openly asks, why didn't he use the mind-link.
"No, when I got there she was in surgery, she's been on her feet all day and night. I'll cancel her training
tomorrow."
"Very well, switch it to Alora then.."
"Yes Alpha."
"Now Alpha Jude, Alpha Hector, I need a favour. I need you to take our case to the alliance council, to help plead our case." Beckett turns back to Jude and I.
"Hhmm that may be difficult now." Jude replies.
"How so?" Samson quirks an eyebrow, crossing his arms in front of his chest.
"In coming to your pack's aid, I might have killed a few of Alpha Marc's fighters..."
"And I challenged Alpha Marc when he tried to charge at Kala..."
"Charge at Kala?"
"Oh yes, she was quite the fighter... in her wolf form. Quite the colour..." My eyes don't move away from Beckett once, this might be his pack but I'm the strongest alpha here. This was a battle of auras.
"Her colour...." Samson starts to respond but is cut off as Beckett puts his hand up to silence him. "Is my daughter in danger here..."

"No Kala might no longer be my pack member but I maintain my pack's protection for her....I would treat her as if she were. However, you have a very angry blood thirsty alpha that seems to think he is in some sort of marriage negotiations with you for the white wolf." "What?" Samson looks at Beckett in disbelief.
"Fear not Samson, I have no desires to give my daughter to that dick, I was just trying to bide us some time."
"Which you no longer have." I respond with a sigh. Alpha Marc will only increase his efforts in destroying this pack.
"You didn't know about Kaia, especially as she was in your pack?" Beckett observes me, his finger drumming along his bottom lip. He was testing me.. "No..."
"She never shifted, attended pack runs?" Samson cuts in and I have to bite my tongue to be mindful of what I say.
"No.." I think on what Ezra told me, about how he followed her and witnessed her shift just the one time. But I wouldn't put a target on my own beta's back. "No, she
never shifted. But Alora is light grey...why isn't she white?"
"How do you know that?"
"Alora and I grew up together..did she not tell you."
"You're from the Amber Desert pack?" Beckett's eyes widen in surprise.
"Yes, until I left and started the Dark Phantom pack. What I don't understand is how Alora ended up at a different pack?"
"I was told she had died at birth..."
"You felt the link break?"
"The link?"
To your child? You felt the link break...her death."

Something wasn't adding up. Not only was he an alpha but also a father, he would have felt every single person in his pack, children born even if they aren't his so how could he have not felt Alora still alive. His own child.
"I was distraught by my mate's death..." He bangs loudly on his desk with a closed fist, the memory seemingly too difficult for him. But something doesn't it right with me.
"We can't imagine what you went through." Jude interjects, trying to ease the rising tensions in the office. Things were...odd and I had no intention of leaving any time soon.
