The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 32

Chapter 32: CELEBRATION

XADEN’S POV

There was loud cheering in the hall as they celebrated his victory over the Moonlight Pack.

It was a massive feast for the entire pack, and they all danced and rejoiced.

For Xaden, he wasn’t satisfied.

He had killed Abel, and it had given him joy to see him the way he had died, given him the pleasure to see his parent’s hearts break.

Although he knew it was possible that they would set up imposters to hide his children, Xaden had sniffed their bloodlines and was 100 percent sure they were children of Bale.

It wasn’t enough.

He hated the Wolf Council and their stupid rules.

He knew that they were in some way partial to Bale. He didn’t want anything to ruin his plans to murder Bale, finally.

The thought of Bale escaping once again within one year of the new moon annoyed him.

He stalked off from the celebration and headed to one of the massive balconies overseeing his entire pack.

His pack was like a whole new country.

He had built it from scratch and with his entire sweat.

When he was a man, after he had grown up under Elena, he had gone to look for those who would fight for his cause.

Those who bore the same hatred he had for Bale had found them.

At first, it was Erik. A wolf who had watched his mate, mother of his children, and then unborn child massacred to death.

Erik, unlike the other pack members, was quiet and resigned.

He had been known to be fierce in battles but ended up living a quiet life after he found his mate in his pack.

The story was that Bale had heard of how powerful Erik was and asked to join him in taking down other packs.

But Erik had turned it down, saying that life was behind him.

But the power-hungry Bale had never forgotten it.

One day, Erik had gone on a short journey and returned only to find his mate dead. The baby, whom she had been carrying for eight months, had been ripped out of her stomach.

His pack is gone; their city is in ruins.

And those who had survived were taken as captives.

Erik had become wild with grief and hungry for vengeance.

His daughter, who was only two years old by that time, had been taken too.

Xaden found Erik, and together they took down one of the enemy’s packs that had assisted Xaden and found his daughter in a cell.

Erik had been happy to be reunited with his daughter. He had lost his whole family, but thanks to Xaden, he had found his daughter safe and sound.

Xaden knew how lucky they were because there were rumors that barbaric packs were forced on children.

Erik had been his best friend, as had Gamma.

A bond gang had been unbreakable.

And like that, they had found like-minded people.

He saved packs, and over a few years, he raised an army that no one could dare defeat.

He had found his previous pack and rebuilt it in an attempt to savor the memories he had as a child.

"You left the celebration." A feminine voice interrupted his thoughts.

He turned around and saw Aurora advancing towards him.
