Chapter 70

Axton POV

Two days Later

After digging for the past two days and even trying to bribe a few officials, no one would hand any information over about this new Alpha living on the borders of my pack. Literally living on the damn borders, he wasn’t even three kilometers from the border fences.

I had sent scouts out to check it out, but Marco warned me against it, stating I could start an unnecessary war. So today I am driving out there. We did manage to find the dirt road on a map, and today we were going to introduce ourselves and see if I can cut a deal with the Alpha. I’m even willing to give up the vacant land I own by the river. From what Marco told me, his pack wasn’t very big.

So worst-case scenario, they may just disappear off the face of the earth if my pack has to invade, though, by the sounds of how small it is, Eli and I could probably handle it ourselves. Switching my computer off, I grab my jacket when my phone rings on the desk. A number I haven’t seen before popping up on the screen.

“Alpha Axton,” I state, wondering who the caller is. For a few moments, I get no answer.

“Hello?” I growl, annoyed, and quickly glance at the screen to see if the call is still connected. Someone sighs and I press my ear closer, trying to figure out who it is.

“It’s me, Axton.” comes Elena’s voice on the other end of the phone. Honestly, I am shocked she rang. I thought for sure I’d be forced to hunt her down. I fall back into my chair and shake off my shock.

“How are the boys?” I ask, not knowing what else to say. I wasn’t expecting her call.

“They are good. I know I said two weeks. But I can bring them by on the weekend if you want?” she asks.

“Can they stay for the weekend?” I didn’t want them for a few hours; I wanted to spend time with them. Elena falls quiet. “Elena, they’re my sons too. If this goes through the courts, you’d be forced to share custody. It’s no different.” I tell her.
