Chapter 32

Warren

“Give me something so I know that you’re telling me the truth,” say to the she–wolf who has barely taken her eyes off my mate. She’s studying her like she’s trying to figure out what all the fuss is about. As a warrior, she’s looking at my mate as a fighter. What she doesn’t realize is that my mate’s strengths come in different ways than the normal werewolf strength.

Finally, her gaze returns to me. “I’ll be honest. I don’t know much. I’ve heard a little from Alpha Thomas, but mostly what I’ve heard is rumors.”

“What did you hear from Thomas,” I press.

She looks at Yara again, that same questioning assessment in her eyes. “That both Alpha Brady and Alpha Quinton want her. Both intend to capture her and take her as their mate.”

I snarl as I feel Yara’s fear spike. The warrior must smell her fear because she frowns. I get it. If she wasn’t my mate and I didn’t know Yara, didn’t know what she’s capable of as a doctor, I wouldn’t see the draw either. But not only is she she’s strong in ways that matter, in ways that are making my pack stronger than I can as their Alpha.

“They want to share me?” Yara asks. I can feel her nausea rolling around in her gut. I step up to her, wrapping my arms around her.

“They will never get to you. They would have to get through me and this pack,” I tell her.

mate,

She nods and while I don’t like this warrior that I don’t trust seeing my mate fearful or me being protective, Yara is more important. If this woman betrays me, she’s dead anyway.

“Not to share, they each want you as their mate and Luna,” she says. Quinton already has a Luna and an heir, so he must realize how valuable Yara is.

“What’s your name?” I ask the woman, still focusing on Yara, running my nose through her hair and purring softly to calm her. She needs to eat, I know she’s tired again, and now she’s found out that not one, but three Alphas are after her.

“Delaney, but everyone calls me Laney,” she says.

“And why does your sister need assistance to leave Alpha Thomas‘ pack?” I ask her, feeling Yara starting to calm.

“Alpha Thomas wants to take her as his mate. He’s a young Alpha and she’s just turned eighteen. I’m not sure why he chose her, other than she’s beautiful, but he did.”

“And you think your sister is unwilling to be a Luna? Or are you jealous and trying to take that position away from her?” I ask. It isn’t out of the question. This warrior isn’t that old.

“My sister wouldn’t mate with that useless piece of shit Alpha if he was the last man on the planet,” she growls. I like her fire.

“What’s your sister’s name?” I ask.

“Noelle.”

“And why would Noelle believe my warriors if I sent them to get her? She could raise the alarm and have my men killed. Thomas‘ pack is weakened significantly right now, but that doesn’t mean that a few of my men couldn’t easily be overpowered and captured or killed. This could be a very well–played trap on your part.”

“How can I prove to you that I’m telling the truth?” she asks me

“Accept me as your Alpha,” I say and Yara’s head snaps to mine. I smile and kiss her nose before turning back to Laney.
