The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary

Chapter 26

Chapter 26
Something told me to hold my ground and keep my head high.
I opened my mo uth to say something but couldn’t find my voice. So instead, I simply
nodded.
The Alpha seemed pleased with something. I don’t know if it was because she was happy I can understand her or if she was happy I wasn’t backing down. Normally, Alpha’s hated to be challenged or intimidated. It made them feel like their power and strength was being questioned. I guess it was one of those Alpha territorial things.
Alpha Crestfield sighed through her nose. Walking to my side, she stood straight and tall. I couldn’t understand why I felt such a connection to her. I wasn’t feeling scared nor was I really panicking now that I met her face to face. I felt similar to her on a spiritual level. My wolf was basking in her presence as well. A little confused, but happy to be near her.
What the actual h ell?
“You’re on Greyhound territory, my dear.”
She said suddenly, her voice void of emotion. I swallowed. Was this the part she told me I was going to be held captive and that the only way for me to return home was by talking to Landon? Anger soared through my veins at the name. The man who was supposed to love me, cherish me, understand me had betrayed me in the worst of ways. I might’ve accepted his decision to reject me, but I would never forgive the fact he decided not to help Duskfall-

My breathing hitched.
Lila.
I quickly looked up at the Alpha, my eyes wide in realization.
“The The little girl! I was with- Lila, where is she? Is she- Is she okay?”
The blankness on Alpha Crestfield’s face faltered. Her lips tugged down the tiniest bit before she hid it well. For a split second, I could see something under her facade.
Something I could associate myself with for the past few months.
Sadness.
She didn’t need to say anything. I knew, deep down inside what happened. I knew, with all my heart, that my precious little angel didn’t make it. But I still betted on that zero point one percent chance that she survived. Even with all the odds against it, I hoped. Hope that had shattered with the way the Alpha’s gaze dropped. Staring at her with all the courage I could muster, my lips moved on their own,
“Let me see her… please.”
Alpha Crestield’s eyes snapped up to me, a small huff of breath leaving her. She looked reluctant. She was more than wary of me and it was understandable seeing how I got here but I just needed to see her. I needed to. If it meant fighting my way to see her, then so be it.
“Please. I’m begging you.”
Finally, her hazel eyes softened at my blue ones. She nodded in agreement,
“No.”
I said, swinging my legs over the edge of the bed.
“I’d rather walk.”
