The Alpha's Slave Mate

Chapter 42

Chapter Forty-Two

 

Caleb’s Point of View

 

I want more than anything to be the white knight for my mate. I would love to tell her that I have all the answers to her problems. I would love to be able to magically wave my hands and make the world perfect for her. Unfortunately, I find myself questioning everything, not knowing what if anything I can do.

 

The excitement of today has worn Daphne out, and she is sleeping in my arms. My mind will not shut down, sleep eludes me. I wonder if I could find out any more information on the previous Alpha’s death. I know that if I start a big investigation that it will draw attention and could potentially start a war. I also know that if the suspicions surrounding Dorian’s rise to power are correct, then he should be punished.

 

I am also worried about the information that Daphne has revealed to me. Scarlet is his fated mate, knowing that he willingly breaks that sacred bond makes me lose all respect for him. I need to talk to Theo and find out more information. Theo had indicated that many former members had turned rogue. 1 am not comfortable with this man in my home. I also can not ask him to leave, because he is my mate’s brother in law.

 

With all these thoughts in my head I know that there is no way that I will be able to sleep any time soon. I must get some of the questions in my head answered before I will ever be able to get any rest. I gently ease Daphne off my arm, ensuring that she is tucked in snugly. I mind link Theo and confirm that he is awake. We quickly decide to meet outside. I grab my sneakers, and head out in search of some answers.

 

Theo is already outside when I reach the front steps. I can see that he has not changed clothes and judging by the dark circles under his eyes he has not gotten any rest yet either. “I can see that you have not rested yet.”
