The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary

Chapter 43
I had no plans to argue with that.
As much as I wanted to tear them limb from limb in my territory and away from prying eyes, I wasn’t desperate enough to put
their use in jeopardy by demanding them here. Still, they wouldn’t escape my clutches. Just because they couldn’t be brought
here, didn’t mean I’d make the interrogation a walk in the park. Just because I couldn’t bring them, didn’t mean I couldn’t bring
things to them.
I had a few select tools in mind.
I hummed, already pinning for a chance to face those two again. I volf sat on her hind legs, jaw parted with her tongue sticking
out in anticipation. The thust for their blood only grew the longer the days went by. Not once did we forget our desire to pay them
back. The desire to make them regret their decision of attacking Duskfall.
Everything they were responsible for would be paid in full.
One way or another, their blood will be spilt.
It was just a matter of time.
“That’s okay. Prepare our little ‘toys’.”
I opened the car door, sliding off the seat and planted my feet firmly into the ground. Some pups that were running around took
notice of me and clumsily bowed in respect before running off. I smiled, watching over the pups squealing and laughing with one
another. Little bodies bouncing in glee as they shrieked.
They lived such carefree lives.
Carefree lives I strived to protect.
The life I had wanted to give Lila.
One pup hadn’t moved from his spot. He kept staring at me, or rather, my body. When he noticed I caught him looking, he
gasped before speeding off to where his friends were. I frowned. Glancing down, I realized the pup was staring at my blood
soaked dress. It made me wonder how he noticed when the red wasn’t easily seen on black fabric.
He must’ve caught scent of it.
Noah repeated my motion, closing his door sh ut and was about to carry out my orders when he looked at me. Giving me a
sympathetic smile which told me he felt my thoughts of Lila, he started walking off in the direction of the pack house.
“Oh, and Noah? Bring silver.”
I remembered their faces perfectly. Fio and Val. Two rogues responsible for what happened at Duskfall. I remembered Fio’s
smug face. I remembered the fear I felt running away from them with Lila trembling in my arms. Fear for her. Fear that they’d
mercilessly put an end
to her life.

Fear that had turned out to be the most harshest reality.
My eyes darkened with bloodlust as Noah smirked at what was to come. The bond sent

waves of anger to him.
“How much silver?”
He asked, knowing full well what I was going to say. But to his amusement, I answered without skipping a beat,
“Lots of it.”

“Congrats Selene.”
I raised my head from the papers I was looking at to see a smiling Isaac leaning against the doorframe. His sleeved arms
crossing his chest enhanced the muscle ghtly bound by his shirt. I shot him a questioning look as I pulled away from the desk.
Since getting back to the pack house, I’ve done nothing but paperwork. I sat here chained to my desk looking through countless
reports and admission requests.
At this rate, I’m going to need reading glasses very soon.
“Congrats?”
I ask him.
I’m sure Isaac had just finished training the youths of the pack. As Gamma, Isaac was responsible for leading our Warriors as
well as training pack members. I’d come and overlook training occasionally, but he preferred to do it alone. He always preferred
to work alone. It was hard enough for others to really get close to him outside training, as I’ve seen countless female wolves try,
but training with him was difficult.
I guess being close to Bentley and all was the reason he took to me easily.
Five months was how much time it took for Noah to even hold a proper conversation with Isaac. I had to give it to him though,
Noah did not back down and relentlessly tried to get on Isaac’s good side. I guess his persistence was really the key factor of
their friendship. Isaac was a tough one to crack, I’m sure everyone in the pack can vouch for that.
He pushed himself off the frame with a goofy grin on his face. He strode over to me, planting his hands on the table and leaned
forward.
“Everyone’s heard about Windril. Noah’s been running his m outh telling everyone how the Hellhound was unleashed since he
got here. Hand gestures, sound effects and all. Quite the story teller, that guy, but I doubt he exaggerated anything.”
He motioned with his hands for emphasis. I groaned, rubbing my temples with my thumb and forefinger. While my wolf was
prancing around in pride, I was dreading reality. Of course, Noah just had to. I can almost hear the pups running down pack
territory singing a song about it.

“Remind me why I chose Noah as my Beta, again.”

I grumbled, flipping through the stacks of unsigned papers. Report. Report. Admission. Report. Admission. Admission.
Admission. My fingers ached to rip my hau myself back. I was ‘this’ close to throwing the stacks in the fire place but that would’ve
been stu pid.
