Chapter 0150

when I hear his voice telling me to enter, I do so.

After deciding on my next move, I leave my room and go downstairs. Sniffing the air, I easily locate Micah, so I head towards his direction. He was in his office. In most packs, the beta and gamma had their own offices. Alec's pack wasn't any different. I gently knock, and "Hi, Micah," I drop down on one of the seats next to his desk.

He smiles at me, his shining eyes conveying that he is actually happy to see me. "How are you, Sadie?"

Because of the risk he took in helping me escape the dungeons and the fate that awaited me, I will always respect him. I will always be grateful to him. I will always owe him because both Aspen and I are alive because of him.

"As good as I can be, given the circumstances," I reply, sinking further into the seat.

"Is everything okay? Is this about Alec?" he asks, genuine concern clouding his features.

I sigh. I don't even have the energy to get irritated at the mention of Alec's name.

"Why does everything circle back to Alec?" I ask, my voice a bit frosty. "The world doesn't revolve around him, you know."

He doesn't say anything for a while as he stares at me, almost as if he is studying. I fight to maintain eye contact with him, something I've struggled with since I became an alpha.

I was raised as an omega. That meant that I couldn't look directly into other people's eyes. Especially if they were higher up than I was, and that was everyone except other omegas. It was a sign of disrespect to do so, and some even viewed it as a direct challenge. When I was elected alpha, I had to fight against the lesson that had been ingrained in me since I was a child. I still struggle with maintaining eye contact, especially in these kinds of situations.
