Chapter 156

BOOK 2 CHAPTER 20

Rowan’s POV

That afternoon, I 1 was in my office when I heard a slight knock on my door. Whoever it was must have received permission from the warriors at the reception. I thought it might have been Mika or Gideon, but as the knock resounded the second time, I realized it wouldn’t be either of those two.

They were too rude to knock twice. They would’ve barged in without bothering to wait for my instructions.

“Come in,” I ordered. I turned back to the laptop in front of me. I was busy going through some of the pack’s monthly updates to see what could be improved. We were increasing in number and there was a dire need to increase the importation of some products.

I was getting closer to a conclusion. A distraction wasn’t something I needed at that moment. I hoped whoever it was would make it quick and get the hell out of my office.

Although the door opened like ten seconds ago, I didn’t lift up my eyes until I was done with my current page.

“What do you want?” I asked the familiar face. I was sure I’d seen her several times in the pack

“Im Ella, Harriette’s sister,” she answered.

At the mention of Harriette’s name, I lifted my head to look at her. Even though she and Harriette shared a few similarities, nothing about them made them look like sisters. They were like two different people trained to look like they were the same person.

“And?” I replied nonchalantly. I shouldn’t act interested in whoever she was just because she mentioned Harriette’s name.

“Alpha Rowan, I’m here to make you an offer, can I sit?”

I chucked. I wish I had a microscope to check where she got that audacity from “Keep standing. Tell me, what offer is this?” She stared at me. I raised an eyebrow and she looked away.

“Harriette is planning to escape the pack tonight,” she revealed.

Even though my facial expression didn’t change, I twisted my palm into a tight fist underneath the table.

I should’ve known something like this would happen after I asked her to come clean about who she was.

“She told me that you found out we lied about our pack and she’s planning on leaving,” she explained further.

“She? Or both of you?” I asked her,

“Both of us but I don’t want us to leave, Alpha Rowan,”

She confessed.

I raised an eyebrow. “How does this concern me?”

“Harriette is a good asset to your pack and so am I. I believe it’ll be a terrible mistake if you allow us to leave. I really like it here. I can’t leave and go back to the hellhole we came from,”

She cried.

As I looked at her, there was not a bit of honesty in her. I shouldn’t be surprised anyway, she was Harriette’s ‘supposed sister. Lying was one more thing they shared in common.

I smirked. “Where do I come in with all of these?” I asked her.

“Stop

us from escaping,” she declared. What? Did I hear her right? or was I mistaken!

“Why would I do that? My warriors would be glad to watch you both fry to death as you try to get across the barbed wires,”
