Nathan growled and I could see his wolf on the brink of losing control. Things were not supposed to go this way.
This conference was already a mess and now this upcoming brawl would make things harder.
At least for me.
The tension in the air was thick as the warriors closed in, their numbers overwhelming. Tristan’s muscles coiled, ready for a fight, and Nathan’s eyes flickered with steely resolve. But before they could act, I stepped forward, my hand raised in a gesture of peace.
“Alpha Rambo. We appreciate your offer and also your kindness in arranging a place to stay for us. As if you knew things would go bad and we would have to stay at different places.” I spoke and saw Alpha Rambo’s eyes darkened.
“Are you intending something?” Alpha Rambo asked.
Am I? This was what I wanted to say but I kept my mouth shut and smiled.
This was all facade and I needed to get my mates out of this situation.
I turned to Alpha Rambo, my expression composed but hiding a storm beneath. “We’ll do as you ask, Alpha. We won’t leave until the patrol returns. But mark my words, this is far from over.”
Alpha Rambo’s smirk widened, satisfied by our compliance. “I’m glad to hear you’re seeing the reason. My only concern is the safety of everyone here.”
The lie in his voice was obvious, but we didn’t challenge it. Instead, I gave a polite nod and stepped back. The tension eased slightly as Alpha Rambo’s warriors relaxed, though their watchful eyes never left the group.
Sara huffed but didn’t say much.
Tristan came toward me, his eyes worried, but he didn’t say anything.
At least not to my face, but my mind link was active.
“Take care of yourself. And don’t trust the Moonlake pack. I think they are planning something. And separating us might be one of their plans.” he said.
“Yes. Alpha Rambo seems like a cruel werewolf and I am pretty sure he is doing something against our back. There might be no attack. All lies.” Nathan chimed in.
