The Alpha’s Hidden Heirs by Avery Rose

Chapter 28

I was working in my office the next day when someone knocked.

“Come in.”

Beta Finn entered with a young man I didn’t recognize. The newcomer bowed. “All hail, Alpha.”

I didn’t respond, already swamped with work. I just wanted to know why he was here.

Looking at Finn expectantly, he explained, “This is Cole. Our intelligence officer. He has information about Axel.*

That got my attention. I turned to Cole. “What did you find?”

Cole handed me a file, head still bowed. “Everything’s in here, Alpha. We’ll keep this confidential until you say otherwise.”

“You’re dismissed.”

After Cole left, I caught Finn eyeing the file eagerly.

Opening it, I found Axel’s background check. As I read through his personal history, some details jumped out at me.

Contrary to rumors, he wasn’t from some prestigious family. He was orphaned young. Alpha Malcolm had taken him in, seeing potential in the boy. He’d grown up alongside Malcolm’s son, and Malcolm

had trained him as a warrior.

“Interesting,” I muttered.

His close ties to the royal family had made him well–known among other packs.

Reading further, I found a quote from one of his pack’s elders: “Their beta can take down a hundred wolves single–handedly.”

I scoffed. “How many did I take down in the last war?” I asked my beta.

Finn looked startled, glancing at the file as he approached.

“Are you seriously comparing yourself to Axel?”

I shot him a look. “Why would I?”
