Chapter 5
Kade's POV
My gaze was fixed outside the window when I heard a commotion outside, yet I didn't seem bothered about it. I have seen too many commotions to care anymore.
A knock swiftly came through and without a word, Rowan pushed the door through.
"Alpha!" He called as he stood behind me. My gaze was still fixed outside the window.
"There is a girl outside that is insisting on seeing you and even though we have told her countless times that she can't meet you, she is fierce and persistent,"
I finally turned around, my gaze was dark as it pierced through him.
"You are saying that you can't get rid of an ordinary girl?" I was almost smitten by these words.
"I can. But I just think she might peak your interest,"
"Why is that?" My brows furrowed.
"She is the daughter of Alpha Aiden," At the mention of that name, anger crept in. I clenched my fist hard, trying so hard to fight the rage.
"Alpha! Tomorrow is the full moon and all of a sudden, his daughter shows up here today, determined to see you..."
"Are you saying he might have found out?" My gaze pinned right at him and he did not dare finish his words.
"Alpha! I have no clue why Alpha Aiden daughter would suddenly visit, but clearly, whatever might be the reason, it is not going to be good,"
"Yet! I am curious! Bring her in, I want to know what this is about,"
"Alpha..." his gaze flickered.
"Come on Rowan, you can't be afraid of a mere girl," A smirk appeared on my lips. But Rowan wasn't finding it any funny.
"Go get her in! Let's hear what she has to say!" I insisted again, this time, he lowered his head and stepped out of my room.
As soon as he was out of my room. I walked over to the wine cellar. Grabbed one of the expensive bottles of whiskey and carefully poured it right into the glass.
I wasn't sure what this was about, but somehow I felt like this was certainly going to be interesting knowing how long I have been at war with Alpha Aiden.
Both packs had stayed away from each other's territory, avoiding war, of course I was the last person he would want to go to war with.
And now, he had sent his daughter which made me wonder what game he was going to play now.
As the door swung open, a slender and tall girl stepped in, her eyes were red like she had been crying, but behind that pain. There was fire in them, driven by sheer determination.
"Alpha Kade!" She called and locked eyes with me, even when she did. She maintained eye contact.
No one has ever been bold enough to look me in the eyes, not even my beta and just when I thought she would return to her senses. She walked up closer to the table and spoke.
"Alpha Kade Hart!" She called out with so much audacity. Never have I met such a girl, her eyes filled with fury like one who had seen death countless times and wasn't afraid of it again.
I turned around slowly, letting my Alpha aura press against her, testing her. As I carefully placed the glass of whiskey on the desk, my eyes trailed over her from head to toe, assessing.
Then her scent hit me.
Pure-blood!!
My eyes widened, My wolf surged forward so violently I nearly shifted right there. After five years of searching, five years of growing more feral with each passing full moon.
five years of watching my humanity slip away piece by piece, she'd walked into my territory on her own.
My eyes suddenly locked with Rowan who was at the door, like he knew exactly what was happening, he immediately mindlink me.
'Alpha! This is a trap! Don't fall for it' he warned, but how could I not fall for it, when her scent was everything I had ever searched for, everything I had craved for knowing that was the only way to get my humanity back.
"What do you want?" A soft growl escaped my lips but I quickly pushed my wolf back. That was enough to make her scared and trembling, yet her gaze never left mine.
The more I was staring at her, the more intrigued I was. If this was a trap Alpha Aiden had set for me. Then no doubt he made perfect preparations for it. Because I was falling right into it.
I settled into my luxury armchair, somehow I could already tell that this was going to be very interesting.
"Alpha Kade, I know you're a busy man, so I am going to keep this very short." She paused, meeting my eyes with an intensity that made my wolf growl in approval.
"Go ahead, I am listening!" I commanded.
"I want us to get married!" She blurted and even while she did, there was not a flicker of emotion in her eyes.
