85 Grief turning into ambition …
Nathan
I watched helplessly as Lyla disappeared into the garden .
I knew she was hurting ; I had walked in on her mother hurling hateful words at her again .
I had seen the pain in her eyes when she told me not to pity her and every fibre of my being wanted to go after her .
But before
I could move , my father gripped my shoulders , stopping me in my
tracks .
“ You’re Alpha now , Nathan , ” he said in a steely voice , giving me a hard glare .
“ Not just Alpha to
Blue Ridge but also head of the Alpha Council .
You can’t just run off whenever it pleases you .
You have responsibilities now lots of them .
”
–
I turned to face my father , clenching my jaw .
“ This is Lyla , we’re talking about dad .
You saw how she was humiliated .
She’s hurting and I need to go to her .
”
His gaze softened slightly but his grip on my shoulders remained stronger .
“ I understand , Nathan .
But this is what it means to lead .
You have other Alphas waiting to meet you as their new leader .
You’ll see Lyla soon enough .
So stay and talk to the other Alphas … I’ll go after her myself and bring her back to you .
”
Before I could protest , my father was already moving towards the garden following the path Lyla had taken a moment ago .
Alone now , I turned back toward the council hall , though my mind was
still on her .
As I entered the hall , I felt restless , unable to shake off the growing anxiety gnawing at me in my heart .
I stood near the back of the room , my eyes alternating between the garden and taking in Alphas that came to greet me and introduce themselves and their Betas even though I knew almost everyone .
Minutes went by and most of the Alphas had left , leaving just a few of us .
I was done with exchanging pleasantries and now I stood sentry in front of the building telling myself that I would go after them if I didn’t see my dad in the next five minutes .
“ You’ll make a fine Alpha , a voice broke through my thoughts .
When I turned , I saw Alpha Calder standing beside him , a quiet gleam in his eyes .
From all of the Alphas in the region , he was shrewder .
