Once In The Dust 17 He Would Not Betray Me.
Christopher. Willow got me all worked up. Knowing that she knew I was watching while she touched herself made me feel naughty. I enjoyed the view and had to work on myself every time I left her window. I honestly wished things had happened differently between us. My heart has never beat for anyone the way it beat for her. She was perfect. I knew King Aaron wanted her for himself, and I felt it was low of him to ask me to give her to him as tribute. He wanted my army, my strength, and now my woman. The man had made himself the bane of my life. As I walked back towards the Packhouse, I wondered what was special about the two people fucking in the deserted section of the service quarters that made Willow ask me to join her there. Somehow, I felt she knew who the people were and wanted me to see for myself. Willow wasn't a stupid girl, nor was she spontaneous. She was angling at something. I wanted to go but could not excuse myself when Aaron was there. It would be disrespectful of me. "
Once In The Dust 18 He was a traitor.
Willow. I returned to my bedroom after eating a hearty meal at the restaurant in town. I lay on my bed, wondering what would happen next. The fire in Christopher's eyes let me know he was still mine. I hoped he could let go when my time was up. I had one goal: to expose Aida and save his life. I planned on focussing on it with all my might. "Tomorrow, we will eavesdrop on Aida's plan in her office," Willow said. That was the first place I learned what she was really planning. I had eavesdropped on her conversation with her father's envoy. That conversation motivated me to try harder to expose her. I needed to be wise and careful this time. To avoid making my eavesdropping suspicious, I will make a Parfait for her as a peace token. I knew exactly what to say and do, and I planned on manipulating her the way she manipulated the pack members and Christorpher against me. After planning our move for the next day, I decided to sleep. I woke up in the morning and dressed nice. I missed hea
Once In The Dust 19 It better be good
Willow. I hurried back to my room. What the king confirmed about Mark scared me because it seemed he was a bigger enemy than Aida. It was possible Aida did not poison Christopher in the past life, but after hearing what I had just heard, I could not say the same for Mark. How can an Alpha have such a Beta? It is a miracle that the Rain Pack is still standing. I sat on my bed feeling like a nosy neighbour. So far, I have hidden in three closets to do my job. I hid in my locker to catch Ingrid; in the broom closet to confirm that Mark and Aida were screwing, and now I hid in the broom's closet again to eavesdrop. I just hoped my lurking around and hiding in places won't get me in trouble because it was suspicious behaviour. I wouldn't trust me if I found out I was lurking about the place. Fate really played a huge joke on me. They gave me good hearing and vision but sent me back with selective memory and half a wolf. I was an Alpha, and now, I couldn't even pass for an Omega. I didn't
Once In The Dust 20 Lurking In Corners Isn't Appropriate
Willow. We arrived at the restaurant, and I wasn't hungry. I wanted to be away from the pack members to avoid someone watching us. Luis leaned forward on the table and smiled. "So, what is going on?" He asked, relaxed and took a deep breath. "Christopher suspects something is going on between Mark and Aida, but he trusts Mark on the matter," I said, and he raised an eyebrow. "It is important for what I am about to tell you, but first, I will need you to answer some questions," I said, and he laughed. "If I did not know better, I would say King Aaron was right about you being a spy, but since I know your motivation, I am okay with it," he said, and I beamed at him. "At the meeting you went and got poisoned. How were you served?" I asked, and he leaned back in his chair and started to think. The waitress brought us juice as we requested, and I asked for some spring rolls to eat. Finger food was best for the occasion. "We had a banquet, and we ate together. I am concerned why only

ONE MONTH LATER Christopher. I was sitting in my office going through some documents when Mark walked in. He sat on the chair and sighed. He had something to discuss with me, and I figured it must be urgent. "Speak up; I don't have all day," I told my Beta, going through the documents of our laws. I wanted to find a way out of the bind with Aida to free myself from King Aaron and his demands. "I do not know how you will take this, but it is about your fated," he said, and I stopped what I was doing to compose myself. "What is with Willow this time?" I asked him, and he sighed. "Some staff members claim she has been snooping about the place. I need you to be careful for security purposes. I know she saved you and Luis's life and is with Luis, but you must be careful. Other than what she told us about herself, we know nothing." Mark said, and I sighed. "So what is it this time?" I asked because he hadn't really said anything that would pique my interest. "We are at odds with the

Willow The commotion was much outside. News had gone around that the bears were challenging us. If it became a full-on battle, women and children would be taken to safety. Although the Medical staff were being taken to safety, I wasn't among the people they allowed to hide. I was glad because I would not have hidden if they had asked me to. Leeana, who was now my assistant, and I went to where the commotion was, and I saw Christopher trying to dialogue with the angry alpha. According to the man, Christopher had sent warriors to slaughter his people. I automatically knew it was the king's doing, but why didn't it lead to him? "Okay, take part of the land in the north as retribution," Christopher offered, and Aida exclaimed. "You have no right to give what belongs to me, Christopher. That land was given to me by my mother," she exclaimed. "We will just be giving a portion. Would you rather they attack us? I do not want bloodshed. It isn't necessary, especially over a misunderstandin
Once In The Dust 23 Hopefully, she would open up to me.
Christopher. I left Willow by the lake and returned to my office. There was a resolve in her eyes that troubled my soul. I knew she was hiding something and holding a lot in, but she wasn't talking to me. I hoped she would open up to me so I could shoulder the burden with her. Eight months was a short time. I did not know if I could honour our agreement when the time came. "Alpha, are you in the office?" I heard Luis's voice in my head just when I was about to sit down. "Yes, Luis," I said. I was very sad and confused. I honestly did not know what to do. On one hand, Aida was pregnant, so I could not just reject and divorce her. Left to me, I was willing to part with land and people just to be with Willow, but I could not be a deadbeat. On the other hand, Willow was leaving regardless. "We need to find out why she wants to go," Jet said, sounding sad. "Isn't it obvious, Jet? She does not want to break my home," I answered my wolf, and he growled. "She is perfect for us. She might

Christopher. Aida banged on my office door while I was about to sleep, so I got up to open the door for her so she won't disturb the sleep of the pack members living in the house and create a scene. I opened the door, and she was wearing red lace lingerie with a short silk robe; I cringed. Realising Mark and I had been screwing the same woman for three years made me cringe. I wouldn't have been mad if she had told me she wanted Mark. I would have divorced her and fought for her to join Mark. This was very low of both of them. Here I was, fighting the mate bond just to be faithful to her, and she was cheating on me with my Beta. I was such a fool. "I have needs, Christopher. Don't you know pregnant women have a huge appetite?" She said, trying to sound seductive, and I cringed. She did not need me to satisfy her appetite; she had Mark for that. "I can't touch you tonight, Aida and I doubt I will be touching you anytime soon," I said and left my office to go to my bedroom. I did not
