In His Eyes: Alpha
Zeke’s POV
As I trailed behind the woman in the red suit down the seemingly endless corridor, I could feel the adrenaline coursing through my veins, my heart pounding with each step. Passing by rows of closed doors, the atmosphere becomes charged with a mix of nervousness and excitement. With each step, the woman’s footsteps echoed loudly, adding to the oppressive silence as she refused to speak or make eye contact with me.
Finally, we stop in front of a familiar door – one that fills me with dread. The entrance to the City Council is grand and imposing, befitting the residence of the Alpha. With a sense of unease, I watch as the woman opens the door, unveiling a room occupied by a sea of individuals dressed in sleek black suits.
As I enter, they don’t even acknowledge my presence, but I can sense the intensity of their gazes fixated on me, like sharp daggers penetrating my skin. With each step towards the door, the overwhelming scent of anxiety intensifies, leaving little doubt that whatever awaits me on the other side is bound to be unpleasant.
With each step the woman takes, leading me deeper into the room, my anticipation grows and my nerves tighten. The room is silent, save for the occasional sound of a keyboard being tapped, as we make our way past rows of desks, each one occupied by a determined individual. I sense their silent judgment, as if it hangs in the air and lingers around me, intensifying the weight on my
shoulders.
Finally, we reach the end of the room, where a large oak door stands imposingly before us. Her expression unreadable, the woman motions for me to enter with a subtle gesture. With a shaky breath, I push open the door and step inside, the creaking sound echoing in the quiet room.
The Alpha’s office stands tall before me, exuding an air of grandeur and intimidation. The room is bathed in dim light, casting long shadows across the
polished floors. Behind his desk, the Alpha’s unreadable expression masks his cold,
calculating gaze fixed upon me.
“Zeke,” Thunderously, he says, his voice echoing through the room and commanding attention. “I trust you know why you’re here.”
My throat feels parched as I nod, automatically crossing my arms behind my back and standing with a straight posture.
“Yes, Alpha.”
Standing before the Alpha, his piercing gaze cuts through me like a razor, sending waves of dread coursing through my veins. I can practically taste his disappointment, a bitter flavor that lingers as he rubs his temples with frustration.
“I would appreciate it if you could clarify why my dim–witted son was airlifted y dim–witted son was airlifted from the forest.” Demanding and unwavering, the Alpha’s stern voice filled the space, leaving no room for disobedience. “Could you provide an explanation as to why he sustained bruises and injuries?”
I force myself to swallow, relieved that I had the foresight to anticipate his question. Ettie, much to my surprise, was the one who offered a solution by coming up with an excuse.
“It was… it was because of the fumes in the air,” As my words spill out in a rapid flurry, I stammer and quickly clear my throat, trying to regain my composure. “They… they made us… aggressive.”

into a smile that exudes a predatory aura, his eyes gleaming with a hint of admiration. Leaning back into his chair, he absentmindedly rubs his chin, lost in deep contemplation.
