Chapter 88
She gushed, red cheeks and all. A sincere smile inches across my face as I laugh to myself, amused by her cute awkwardness.
“Thank you. You look gorgeous, yourself. I’m surprised Alpha Woods has managed to keep his hands to himself for so long.”
I shoot him a smirk which he returned.
“Oh believe me, Alpha. These hands weren’t to myself earlier befo-”
He stopped when Kayla squeezed his arm harder. Giving her a sheepish smile, he cleared his throat and grinned at me.
“Gam ma Isaac has been a really great help. My pack members have been improving drastically just from one week alone. I don’t think he needs two months to train them at this rate. He’s so thorough and concise, it’s almost terrifying.”
I can’t stop the pride swelling in my chest. My wolf and I loved to hear someone praise my members. It was one of the most rewarding things to an Alpha. To know that their members were being recognized by fellow Alphas. The success of the pack members was the success of the Alpha.
And it was beyond exhilarating to hear someone speak so fondly of my Ga mma.
“He is quite strict, though.”

Cade adds in thought. I see him cringe as if he remembered something and I stop myself from laughing.
“I’m sure he is. I didn’t just give him the position for no reason.”
I muse. Cade nods and shrugs,
“Indeed. He is well deserving of that title. He’s become good friends with everyone in the pack. They all look up to him. Speaking of friends, I want to formally request an alliance with you. That is, if you are willing.”
I give him a smile. I was already writing up an alliance pack to make with Cade before formally asking him, but I guess he beat me to it.
“I’m more than willing. We’ll have to discuss this in a more…”
I glance around, noticing how everyone was watching us.
“-suitable environment.”
Cade catches my surveillance and looks around. His expression hardened as he nodded. He knew these Alphas were out to look for weaknesses. Everyone had their gazes pinned on us and I had no doubt in my mind that they were also eavesdropping.
“You’re right, my apologies Alpha Crestfield. I suppose we’ll just have to settle with making an appointment.”
Looking down at his beloved, he holds her tight.
“My Kayla and I will be on our way, then. We still have lots to do back at the pack. We hope to see you and please, expect a meeting request soon.”
Cade brings out his hand and I take it firmly. We smile one last time before he goes off to leave after saying good bye to other guests. Mailia and Noah who had drifted off to the sidelines were now by my side. I could already see a few Alphas inching closer to me, probably with the intention of engaging in a conversation. I inwardly sigh.
This was going to be a long night.
“Noah, Mailia, you two enjoy the night. I can handle it from here.”
Noah looks ready to protest but i give him a pointed look leaving no room for argument. He breathes out slowly and nods, taking Mailia’s hand as they drifted off to the dance floor. The moment I was alone, two Alphas who I recognized as Alpha Reynolds and Alpha Sei approach me.
