First

“It was important to see our mother first, we needed to ascertain the state of her wellbeing,” Kelvin replies in a calm tone.

“Luna, you look well,” Theo says, fixing his eyes on Leila.

“I’m no Luna of yours,” Leila replies coldly, her blue eyes turning into steel.

Luna…..It was what Tatum deceived her with, made her believe that making her Luna was a s act of love, made her think that as long as she held the position in the pack, she stood a chance to hold a place in his heart but in the end it was all a faux, a mirage, a smoke mirror that showed just how foolish she was to fall for him.

Theo makes a face at her and he smirks. “Well the Alpha never divorced you, did he?”

“Mama!” Amara runs back into the living room. “You changed the password to the ipad again, I can’t unlock it.”

Theo squints at the child, visibly taken back.

She addressed Leila as Mama, Leila was pregnant with Tatum’s child when she left the pack but that was five years ago, this child looks barely three years old but she ran in with the speed and has the strength of a much older child in her legs.

Amara halts, noticing the foreign presence in the room and seeing the hostile look on her mother and grandmother’s faces. She drops the ipad and bravely walks up to Theo, scowling at him, folding her fists into a punch.

“Are you here to bully gran gran? Leave now or I’ll beat you up,” she says without any sort of fear to a man way bigger than her and Theo is amused by her confidence.

As a powerful Beta, he cannot sense any fear coming from the little child and she has a rather strong aura for a child who doesn’t have a wolf yet.

He crouches in front of her and waves his hand behind her ear, pulling a magic trick and a candy bar appears in his hand and he stretches it towards Amara.

“I come in peace, my lady protector.”

Amara’s eyes light up in surprise but she doesn’t take the candy bar.

“How did you do that bully man?” She asks, looking at his hand curiously.

“Where’s your daddy?” Theo asks and Leila sees the glow in his eyes, knowing who he is mindlinking and she rushes towards them, grabs Amara and scowls at Theo.

“Take Amara Kev, I’ll see the Alpha myself,” she says stretching the child towards Kelvin. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Theo stands to his feet and adjusts his shirt. “The Alpha requests to see you all, especially.

He clasps his fingers together and points at Amara just as Leila passes her to Kelvin.

Leila’s heart immediately pounds in her chest, a subtle fear and worry grating at her nerves, she looks

sharply at Kelvin and he doesn’t need to look at her twice to read her mind and sense her worry. “The Alpha requests the presence of former members, that is I and Leila, the child is not a member of the pack, she stays behind,” Kelvin says in a curt tone, dropping Amara on the table and standing defensively in front of Leila.

Theo scoffs and shakes his head rather disappointedly before the amusement vanishes from his face and he turns cold.

“Need I remind you both of your status before you left this pack? Do not insult the mercy of the Alpha, his wish is for you all to appear and that is my command. Now, are you going to come in peace or do I get my men to take you there otherwise?”

“My child… is going… nowhere,” Leila replies defiantly, staring coldly into Theo’s glowing eyes and they turn normal again.

Kelvin turns, blocking her from Theo’s direct vision, he takes her hand and puts his forehead against hers, counting his breath until Leila’s racing breath calms.

“Relax…..stronger and wiser, remember? And I’m here now, nothing will happen to you or your child, I promise, let’s just go and hear what he has to say.”

Leila grits her teeth and takes a deep breath before she pulls away from Kelvin and smiles at him.

“I know you will always protect me, no matter what,” she holds the side of Kelvin’s arms, their shoulders pressed against each other and a fully confident smile radiates her face as she says to Theo. “Tell your Alpha we will all see him.”

The glow returns to Theo’s eyes and Kelvin squints at them as Leila speaks, he pulls away from her and picks up Amara.

Leila stares defiantly at Theo, looking straight into his glowing eyes, knowing who is behind them, knowing he can see her and hear her.

She scoffs coldly and takes a step closer.

“I hate you.”
