Fated To The Alpha (Ezra, Katya)

Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 156

Andrei POV

We were going to arrive home later than expected after an accident on the highway left us stranded on the side of the road for hours while they cleared the road. We had been stuck here for ages already and my annoyance was growing. Hearing my phone ringing in the console. I reach over and retrieve it from the glove compartment before the noise could wake Sage who had fallen asleep with her head pressing against the window. I quickly answer the phone not bothering to check the caller ID and am surprised when my father’s voice echoes to me from the crappy cell service out here.

“Hey Son” he says.

“Yeah what’s up Derrick?” I ask him as traffic starts creeping past the crash site. I prop the phone on my ear as I steer around the barricades the police had set up. Looks like a tree had fallen across the highway and crushed a car beneath it.

“Kat had a breakdown, I was wondering if I could come over in a few days’ time instead of tomorrow. Just worried about leaving her” He tells me.

“What sort of meltdown, is she ok? I am still not far from her border. I can spin around if needed” I tell him, worry coursing through me for my sister. I knew she was struggling with everything and not shifting wouldn’t have been helping but I didn’t think it was extreme enough for her to break down.

“No, she is fine. Maddox and Ares got to her. She found out we had been monitoring her”

“Monitoring her? What for?” I ask. No one had told me they were keeping a closer eye on her.

“We didn’t want to worry you since you have Sage to look after, but she has been exhibiting strange behaviors, I think she will be fine now though. She finally shifted but I want to stick around to make sure before heading over to your Pack, do you think you can manage for a few more days?” He asks.

“Yes of course I can, ring me tomorrow and let me know how she is please, Kat hardly tells me anything these days” I tell him.

“Of course son, I will see in a few days. Love you son”

“Ok talk soon” I tell him, hanging up. I toss the phone back in the glove compartment and Sage shifts in her sleep before shivering. I turn the heat up before reaching over the back seat to retrieve my jacket. I toss it over her arms to warm her before turning onto the twisting road that leads towards the mountain and our Pack. What should have been a quick drive home turned into hours of being stuck on the side of the road and my ass was killing from sitting on this leather seat for so long. Cracking the window slightly I dig through my pocket trying to find my smokes. Grabbing them out, I light one.

Fluorescent eyes in the trees was the first giveaway as we drew closer to the pack, the border patrollers following the car through the windy path running alongside us within the

we never realized what a big part the woman in the pack played, they were the ones that looked after all activities that brought us together as a pack, the luncheons and the pack parties, little things we didn’t pay attention too and now we all just sat around mostly bored or working ourselves to exhaustion so we didn’t have to think of those we lost and the lifestyle
