Chapter 170: St**d or Stubborn

Hunter

It feels like the pack is about to burst from their pleasure at Sophie’s love and pride. The woman certainly knows how to draw loyalty and love from others. And it’s more than just loyalty, it’s absolute devotion. It almost seems like the more she loves the pack, the more they adore her and want to make her happy, which makes her love them even more and the whole cycle just continues to interweave the bonds of the pack, making all of us stronger.

Because of that, any sour apple stands out like a sore thumb. Currently, Alpha Zahn is our sour apple.

I turn and pull Sophie in to kiss the side of her head, taking the opportunity to slide my hand over her belly to say hi to my pup. “Go check on Jocelyn. I know you won’t be able to rest until you do. I’ll speak to Alpha Zahn,” I tell her.

She turns, lifting up on her toes and cupping my cheek as she kisses me. She hasn’t closed the link to the pack, so they all feel her love and adoration for me. Whether she meant for it to happen or not, the pack’s response is instant, feeling safe and secure in the knowledge that their Luna loves their Alpha. I open my mind to them too, pouring my love for Sophie through the bond. I’ve never been so open with the pack about how I feel about Sophie, but I feel their response instantly. Calm and peace spreads through the pack, knowing that their Luna, the woman they adore, is loved so deeply by her mate.

“I’ll see you soon,” she says when she pulls away.

“Yes,” I say and watch as she walks away, taking Kinsley and Penny with her.

When they walk out, I turn to Zahn. I don’t miss the blatant jealousy on his face.

“Alpha Zahn, come with me.”

“Alpha, do you want us to come too?” Brutus asks. I turn to see him and William flanking Zahn.

“Yes. If he says something s***d, I may need you to pull me off of him,” I say, before turning and walking to my office.

A moment later, Zahn walks in, my warriors stationing themselves by the door.

“Have a seat,” I say, gesturing to a chair in front of my desk. Rather than sitting beside him like I would with most individuals, I lean against my desk and cross my arms.

“You don’t seem to be getting it that Jocelyn is in charge of how much or how little time the two of you get to spend together, Alpha Zahn. You are not in control here, she is. You asked for our help and we’re providing it, but you’re not helping yourself and you’re not holding up your end of the bargain,” I say.

“I didn’t think you’d keep my mate from me.”

It was easy for me to stand in front of the Committee of Alphas and refuse to mark her publicly even though I knew I might have to fight my way out of the courtroom. It was easy for me to go to war and kill those who wanted to take what was mine or try to force my mate and I into a situation that would have made my mate bond no better than yours.
