Chapter 132

Alpha Liam POV

I stared at the invitation blankly, before glancing upwards at Logan whose expression was inscrutable. “This is a joke, right? Why would they think we would possibly go? Just because we approved the transfer doesn’t mean that we have any interest in attending a girl’s eighteenth birthday party‘ I added with a growl.

Perhaps agreeing to the transfer had been a mistake. Logan’s eyes shone with genuine amusement. “I think they are simply trying to be kind. Maybe it will ease their minds to meet you beforehand so they know what kind of man their daughter is going to be following as an Alpha‘ he suggested.

“If they were that concerned they shouldn’t have asked for a transfer in the first place” I snarled “you know exactly what my reputation is like. I’m hardly going to put myself in a position where I have to fend off multiple women who see me as nothing more than a way for them to elevate their status or wealth!”

“Man that woman really did a number on you” Logan sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose while I stared at him, feeling outraged.

“She did nothing of the sort. I merely object to being used as a pawn or a stepping stone to a woman’s ambitions” I snapped

“Bullshit,” Logan said frankly “ever since that bitch rejected you, you’ve done nothing but lock yourself away and pout like a child” he declared.

My eyes narrowed. “I dare you to continue” I growled “and see what happens.”

“Look man, I care about you. But you’ve stopped attending social events out of fear of women throwing themselves at you. I get it. Most of them suck and are shallow, vain or plain selfish. But this is just an invitation. It’s hardly something to turn your nose up at. If you were a father, wouldn’t you want to meet the man in charge of the pack your daughter was transferred to?” he argued.

I did not want to admit that maybe he had a point. However, if the fathers felt so inclined, why hadn’t they come out here to meet me? Had they been banking on the fact that my father had been a good guy, so therefore his son must be? I sighed.

“If I go to this event, I’ll be expected to attend others” I pointed out, shaking my head in resolution “I hate social events.”

“You hate the women typically found at them” Logan corrected “what if this could be your chance to find your second chance mate?” he urged “at least consider it. At the very least, you can drink and have some fun. Let your hair down. Act like an irresponsible, fun adult. Do you remember what fun is?” he asked in exasperation.

I wanted to deny it, but after looking through the girl’s background, it was hard not to be intrigued by a girl like her. The difference between her and the full–blooded Dominion daughter was huge in comparison. Fiona worked odd jobs, volunteered at various charity events, and was by all accounts a sweet and loving person and a kind pack member. Celeste Dominion, on the other hand, I frowned and shook my head. By all accounts, she too was described as sweet and kind, but there were no jobs, no acts of volunteering in her background. She was described as an adequate fighter but seeing as neither girl had their wolf yet, I hadn’t expected them to be described as strong or outstanding. There was something about
