Chapter 10 – Take his hand–3
Alpha Nicholas, is this true?” My father inquired thoughtfully. He appeared somewhat intimidated by Alpha Nicolas.
“Yes, Alpha Rico, the massive wolf answered, his deep voice causing my legs to tremble under my weight. ‘It is true.”
My father knitted his eyebrows together and turned his gaze toward the crowd, searching.
‘Zara!” he called. ‘Come forward!”
1 silently moved forward, letting go of Levi.
“Yes, my Alpha,” I said with a respectful bow to my head.
It was difficult for me to maintain eye contact with my father with Alpha Nicholas standing so close.
“Explain what happened,” he commanded.
It surprised me that instead of taking Alpha Noah’s side, he was interested in hearing my side of the story.
“Alpha Noah attacked me, I retorted, turning to face him with contempt. “And Alpha Dalton arrived to save my life.‘
My father’s eyes lit up with anger, but he remained composed and gave a rigid nod.
“GUARDS!” My father called. “Remove Alpha Noah from the pack’s territory and ensure that he never again sets a paw in my pack. He is no longer welcome here.”
My father turned toward Alpha Noah, his eyes flickering between black and silver. Marcus must be fighting for control.
“You have attacked the future Luna of this pack.” Marcus, my father’s wolf, took charge and sneered. ‘We no longer have a cordial relationship between our packs. Go now, before I rip a chunk out of you!”
Together with ten guards, Beta John lunged forward.
The sight of Beta John’s icy blue eyes made me shudder. With silverback blood in his veins, he was beyond enraged and would not back down until he killed Alpha Noah if given the opportunity.
“You will regret it!” Beta John caught hold of Alpha Noah’s arm and dragged him in the direction of the packhouse, causing him to roar and point at me. “Our relationship will not end here. I will find you! I will take what is rightfully mine.”
“What is that all about?” Levi asked.
The Alpha role is the only reason he wants me,” I retorted. “I told you something was wrong with him.”
“Well, then, I think his rejection was a blessing in disguise,” Levi said.
“That seems to be the case,” I said, but it hurt when he did.
I quickly looked to where Alpha Nicolas was standing. He had a strange smirk on his face and was staring directly at me.
“Let’s go to him,” Levi whispered.
“But-
Levi cut me off with a shake of the head.
He took my hand and dragged me toward Alpha Nicholas.
“We are just going to introduce ourselves, and thank him for saving you.”
Ah, Beta Levi, Beta Ronan uttered as he noticed our approach. ‘Allow me to present you to my Alpha.”
“It looks like Beta Ronan and Levi are getting along well,” Kaya said, with her eyes fixed on Alpha Nicolas
It seems like it, I answered.
“Alpha Nic, Beta Ronan said. This is Beta Levi from the Silverado Pack, along with the soon to be Luna Zara.”
“It is nice to meet you, Alpha, Levi said, holding out his hand. “I am grateful that you saved my Luna.”
Alpha Nicholas took Levi’s hand and gave it a quick shake,

“I am glad to have met you,” he remarked.
The sound of Alpha Nicolas’s voice chiming in my ears made me shudder where I was standing.
Levi squeezed my hand, and I turned to face him, confused.
“Shake the wolf’s hand,” he mind–linked, gesturing to Nicholas‘ hand.
Startled, I turned to look back and saw that Alpha Nicolas was holding out his hand for me. I looked up into Alpha Nicholas’s blue eyes, bewildered.
He slowly tilted his head to the side, raising a black eyebrow in mockery as he patiently awaited my response.
Oh Goddess, what will happen when I take his hand in mine?
