Chapter 7 

Axton POV 

I watched as the news played out across every channel, my wolf snarling in my head at the display. I felt sick knowing everyone could see her in such a vulnerable state, yet I made sure the essential parts were blurred a little. 

However, it left little to the imagination. I warned her; / messaged her, telling her she had to ring me or else. So she can hardly complain when else happened. She was warned, and now she pays for the consequences of her actions. 

Smug satisfaction washed through me. My mate would be begging at my feet to take her in when she has nowhere else to go, and I handled the issue with her father, too. Her father would kick her out of the pack and remove her titles, forcing her back to me or going rogue. I scoff at the idea of the Alpha‘s daughter volunteering to go rogue. 

His spot on the werewolf council will be removed, and I know I would win the majority vote ruling. Everything was falling into place. Soon I will have my mate, and soon I will have acquired over half of the City. Giving me ultimate control over all the packs that reside in this city. 

Eli pats my shoulder triumphantly as I shut the TV off. “Well, you told him you would find a way to ruin him. I am pretty sure you 

just did,” he laughs, walking toward the bar. My phone starts going off. The mind–link fills with excited chatter from the pack at our victory. Excited for the future was an understatement. My pack had successfully found its place. This City now belonged to us. 

“You‘re not the least bit worried about our mate?” Khan asked me as I watched the few pack members who came over to celebrate with us dance and fool around in the rumpus room. 

“No, why would I be? It is only a matter of time before she rings or knocks on our door,” I tell him, and he growls, sauntering off to the back of my mind where I can longer feel him. He had been in a terrible mood for the past few hours. He was dampening my excitement. Putting my troubled thoughts about my wolf aside, we continued to celebrate until, eventually, 

everyone passed out drunk or had gone home. 

It wasn‘t until the early hours of the morning, when I heard laughter and the sounds of voices talking, that I woke up on the couch. I could hear the TV playing in the background, and I rubbed my eyes, staring up at the ceiling. Man, why did I drink so much?
