My Bestfriend Slipped Inside Me (An Alpha’s Secret)

“Funny,” I managed to say in a strained tone.

“You hurt her not too long ago. Made her cry,” I pointed out, not wanting to hurt her but also wanting to show her that I could not take her word for it.

Her gaze drops and she looks like I have cut her deep with my words. “I had not intended to hurt her or make her cry,” her eyes lift and she has nothing to hide, showing me her regret and shame.

My reaction wasn’t fair to her, especially when she needs me the most,” she admits and looks behind me at the woods.

“How many are there around my house?”

I raised a brow, countering her with a question of my own. years have you known about my kind?”

How many

Her eyes return to mine and since the first time she sets her eyes on me, she smiles.” Since I was a child. I was born and raised a hunter.”

Her blunt words, unfeared by the consequences this could bring to her. I have to awe at her strength and courage, something she had passed down to her daughter.

“Now it’s your turn to answer my question wolf,” she raises a brow and it’s hard to see the woman I have known for years as a hunter. Hunters are our sworn enemies, if she had been and she knew what I am, why hadn’t she stopped her daughter from being close to me?

I am sure sh had realized I was one.

I shook my head. ” Fay you cannot just tell someone something like this and expect me to easily trust you.”

She rolls her eyes and leans against her doorframe. “I confessed to you about being raised a hunter, I did not say I am one.

I looked inside the house. A home I had visited many times and spent nights there.

You look a lot like him,”

Her sudden words made me bring my attention back to her, my back stiffening. “Like who?”

“That man who I know is the alpha. I have seen him around, his aura is intense and powerful. Xadeon. I know you’re his son,” she murmured, her eyes narrowing as she studies me. ” You have that same aura around you.”

“Which makes me believe that you are from here and not really a stranger. But for some odd reason, I cannot remember you. But I have a gut feeling I know you,”

Her words hung in the air, like a piece of cheese dangling in the air to trap a mouse. In that case, I am the mouse and she has the bait in her hands, swinging it in plain sight. I watch the gears in her head twist and turn as she tries to piece things together.

The stubbornness to know everything and be right was passed down to her daughter too.

You’re right,” I confessed, seeing no point in lying when the woman already knew about our world. “I grew up here, with Avery. We have known each other for years,”

She nods, her brows furrowing in thought. “I am guessing this lack of memory recollection had been done on purpose?”

” What is

I nod and she studies me, her eyes narrowing suspiciously. going on? Who did your pack upset and why is there a need to protect me too?”

I could not lie to her, what would be the point?

“Hunters have put a bounty on your daughter’s head.”
