The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 107

Chapter 107: THE ULTIMATE DISCOVERY

Erik walked down the hallway.

It was already almost dark.

The Alphas had begun to murmur about Xaden’s no-show.

Erik pushed open the doors and went into the strategy room.

All the alphas turned around and saw him.

"You requested my presence?" Erik asked them.

"We requested Xaden’s presence. Not yours." James, the Alpha of the Cold pack, said. "Where is he? He has kept us waiting for too long."

"I’m his gamma," Erik said. He is busy with other things. When he is ready, he will present himself. In the meantime, I am here to see to whatever you want."

"We said we want to see Xaden! Not his puppet!" Alpha Brian, the Alpha of the sand pack, said.

The entire crowd of Alphas cheered in agreement and uproar.

"I’ve said it already. Xaden can not be seen." Erik said, ignoring their insult. "Whatever you have to say, say it to me."

"We don’t talk to underdogs!" Another Alpha spat in arrogance.

Erik took it in.

He knew what they meant by underdogs.

He was a scarce and almost extinct Breed of wolves called the Sefs.

The other wolves and Alphas had looked down on them mainly out of jealousy.

Compared to how the Lycan were hunted, the Sefs were made outcasts and looked at with disdain.

Originally enslaved wolves, they had been bought by a King about three centuries back and had paid solitude to him.

Eventually, they gained their freedom, but the rest of the wolf world kept the same mindset toward them.

They were also jealous of them because, unlike other wolves, they could retain their status as Alpha even though they had been taken over.

"If you won’t speak to me," Erik said. "Then I’ll send my regards to the Alpha."

Another Alpha was about to complain when the king, who had been watching the entire argument, lifted his hand.

The entire room went quiet.

The King sat up and said. "Where is Xaden? I want to see him. He has to answer to me. It’s within my power."

"But it’s also within the rights of an Alpha when he is within his pack to dictate his own rules," Erik said. "Xaden is busy at the moment. What you have to say to him can be said to me. Here I am him."

The King said nothing, and then he tilted his head. Alexander stepped from the shadows with a patch on his eye but no hand.

Erik gave a coy smile.

"I have enquiries about what happened to my nephew." The King said.

"That’s a matter between Xaden and Alexander," Erik replied.

"But you were present when this occurred, weren’t you?" The King asked. "Xaden is beginning to lose his mind. He hurt my blood. Royal blood over her a mere enslaved person. Slaves are gifts and offerings to all sorts of wolves. Xaden himself has been party to slaves whenever we are having an orgy."

"This slave is special," Erik said. "She belongs solely to Alpha Xaden as the marriage bond ties them."
