Chapter 0014

Ella POV

The plan for the engagement dinner came together quickly, thanks to my father’s help. He arranged for the best tables at the best restaurant and even ordered expensive wine ahead of time.

He was relieved to have a chance to remedy things with David’s family.

I had made David’s father very angry recently, and even though I knew that my father was on my side, it was still difficult for him to deal with another angry alpha. He had to try to keep the peace.

I felt bad for putting him in such a position. I would make it up to him in the end, though. I would make sure that David and his pack couldn’t drag us down to their level.

It had been a busy week for me, so it felt strange to be preparing for a nice dinner out with my family.

I had worked hard with my father to review the operations of the pack from top to bottom. Everything wast running smoothly, and I had found nothing suspicious about anyone.

Whoever the traitor was, it was possible that they were already exchanging information with David and Amanda, but it didn’t seem like any harm had been done just yet. I needed to remain vigilant at all times; if I let my guard down, something terrible could happen.

But at the moment, there was nothing else I could do. I just had to wait.

The only concerning thing I had learned about the pack was that we had expanded so much in the past few years that our food production was struggling to keep up. This forced my father to import more than we ever had before.

When I pointed this out to my father, he seemed shocked by exactly how high the number of imports was. He also seemed impressed that I had noticed and complimented me for stepping into the leadership role so well already.
