Piper

“Hello, may I speak to Blaire please?” I ask. I’ve been searching for Alpha Stellan’s mate and I’m pretty sure I’ve found her

“Who’s calling?” a female voice asks.

“My name is Piper Conley.”

“Anyone who knows me, knows I don’t go by Blaire. Goodbye,” she says and starts to hang up.

“Wait! I’m friends with Alpha Cyra. Do you know who that is?”

I get silence, but the phone doesn’t disconnect.

“I’m at the warrior Academy with Alpha Cyra. Do you know who that is?” I say.

“What do you want?” she asks, her tone sharp.

“I just want to talk to you. If you know who Cyra is, then you know that your mate is in an alliance bond with her,” I say. I’m not sure I should show my hand so quickly, but I don’t want her hanging up and blocking me.

“You know nothing about my mate,” she says, but this time there’s a hint of fear in her voice. I wonder if he’s threatened her not to tell anyone.

“I know Alpha Stellan is your mate. Look, I don’t know you Blaire, or whatever name you go by, but I am a woman and I don’t like seeing women forced or coerced into situations that they don’t agree with or are being lied to about.

“I never said Stellan was my mate,” she says.

“I have very powerful friends,” I say.

“Then how do you not know what people call me?” This time, her tone is defiant.

“If you want to wait to have this conversation until tomorrow, I’ll have someone tap your phone, listen to all your conversations, read all your text messages and emails, and then I’ll call you back. Is that what you want?” I ask, getting aggravated.

“You can’t do that, it’s not legal.”

“I guarantee you, I can. So what’s it going to be?” Okay, maybe I can’t, but she doesn’t need to know that.

When she doesn’t answer, I wait her out.

“Lila. I hate my first name, so I go by my middle name.”

“Lila, I’m assuming you know about the alliance bond between Cyra and Stellan?” I ask her.

“Yeah, I’m aware of it.”

“As a woman, as an Alpha, I’m worried about you. I didn’t get the impression that you’ve rejected Alpha Stellan and I’m not sure why.”

“He doesn’t want this alliance bond, but she refuses to release him from it,” she says snarkily.
