82. An Alpha

ALEJANDRO

I looked over at Rayhan as we stood outside the entrance to the Sangue Pack, his hair was pulled into a bun and he had a frown on his face. “This is it.” I said quietly. “Sometimes, admitting that we made a mistake takes a lot, for you to want to do this yourself, I’m proud of you, and I’m sure more than me, Rafael would be prouder.” He nodded, as Kiara placed a hand on his arın. “We got this, and besides, we’re doing this together.” She said, giving him a warm smile. “Don’t make me out as a good person, I only regret that others suffered, not for what I did to those individuals.” He said, looking at the gates. Kiara nodded. “That is enough in itself.” I replied. “Hm, does Marcel know we’re here?”

Rayhan asked quietly I nodded. “Yeah, someone should be here to escort us inside.” I replied, pulling Kiara into my arms, A few days after my picnic date with Kiara, Rayhan had rang to ask that although Leo refused, if it was ok to visit the Sangue pack. He said he wanted to apologize to those who suffered indirectly from his actions. I was proud that he . himself wanted to do this. We all knew it wouldn’t change the past, but at least it would give some sort of closure to those who had suffered. Marcel soon arrived, and after meeting us, we all walked through the grounds. “How are you holding up since he left?” I asked him, referring to Leo. He gave me a small smile. “It’s hard. Even though he gave me a lot of stress, he was always looking out for me. Leo has a good heart, he’s just…” “Hurting,” I finished, “He had a point, we all fucked up.”

Kiara brushed back a strand of her hair as the wind blew through the trees. She looked as beautiful as ever, with her sandy brown hair pulled back into a braid, and a few strands framing her face She wore a green silk blouse with a black print on it and black trousers. She looked at me and I pulled her close, kissing her lush lips softly Delsanra had wanted to come as well but Rayhan had told her he’d rather she didn’t. I understood his point. After all, this pack was the pack where her abusers lived. It would still be triggering for her, although I knew she was a strong woman. Besides, she had done nothing wrong, so she need not to apologise Rayhan coming was more than enough. “What do you plan to do? Are you sure you don’t want me to call a meeting?” Marcel asked. “No, we will see them individually, a visit not a command for a meeting. Right now, We are here to apologise, and summoning them isn’t going to help that.” I said coldly. “I agree, and if they don’t want to see us that’s ok too, no one is to be forced.” == Kiara added, looking at Marcel. He nodded, sighing heavily as we reached the first house. “‘I did tell them I’d be stopping by.” He said. I nodded as Marcel rang the doorbell. Kiara had wanted to bring gifts, but we had decided against it. We weren’t here to display our wealth… To admit we are wrong, doesn’t make one any less. “Alpha…” The woman at the door paled the moment she saw me and Rayhan. Her heart was racing as Kiara stepped forward, smiling gracefully. “May we come in for a few moments? It won’t take too long.” She said softly, “Opal, who is it?” A man’s voice came before he came into view.

I could smell their fear, and feel their distrust. It showed they only agreed because they felt they had no Choice. “Please sit, Alpha King.” The woman murmured, we all sat down, and it felt too fucking small in here. The man remained standing as his mate sat down, her heart thundering with fear as she gripped her mate’s hand that now rested on her shoulder “The reason we are here, is to apologise.” I said

 

lowered his head to the man, who looked surprised. The woman looked up at her mate, her eyes glittering with unshed tears of surprise. “It’s fine… it’s in the past.” The man replied curtly. Rayhan shook his head. “No. Whether it’s in the past or present I still made a mistake.” The man smiled slightly and nodded. We all did, but we are beings, we are made to make mistakes. It’s fine, you need not worry about it. Thank you for your apology.” “Thank you for accepting it, I’m sorry for the loss of your child at the hands of Endora.” Rayhan said quietly. A silence fell in the room, but somehow, I fucking knew this small gesture would help the couple in their healing. “There is

smiled at her, ‘I think I will start going around to every pack in the country and offer to heal what I can. Although we have always made it clear that everyone is welcome to come to us. It’s obvious not everyone does or can.’ ‘Sounds like a fucking plan. Proud of you, Amore Mio. Our eyes met, and she smiled softly at me, She was my fucking life. We left after a short while, going on to the other houses. There were a few who refused to see us, but that was understandable. Those who had their mates killed were more hostile, but still Rayhan did his best. I knew he didn’t regret killing those men, Inat he did feel for those who suffered because of it. Once we were done and we fare stated at Marcel’s having some refreshments,

anyone would be proud of, and I know that Rafael will be proud of you.” He said in a voice so similar to Rafael’s that it fucking tugged at something inside. Rayhan smiled slightly. “Thank you.” He said quietly. “Yeah, he fucking would be…” I said as I
