Married My Ex's Alpha Uncle (Silver and Elliot) novel Chapter 46

“My pack is fine,” she said. “I’m here to help you like we agreed upon.”

“And I appreciate your help as always. But I don’t think I’ll need it today. I have meetings I need to take care of—”

“I know,” she said, handing me a planner. “I took it upon myself to organize your meetings for today. I’ll sit in on them and make sure there’s no funny business. These other Alpha’s can’t be as trusted. Especially the Alpha from the Stormwind pack.”

The Alpha from the Stormwind pack was Silver’s father; I couldn’t agree more. He couldn’t be trusted. But right now, we needed alliances to help protect our packs from these rogue attacks. We were all dealing with the same issue, and it was time we came together and resolved the problem.

I nodded my thanks to Shirley and she gave me a small smile as I took my seat at the desk.

She walked around my desk, and I felt her hands on my shoulders. I immediately tensed at her touch; my wolf scowled, and I had to fight back the growl that emerged from my throat. Something about the way she was touching me… or maybe it was just her touch in general, I did not like.

“You are so tense, Elliot. Remember when we used to go to parties together and everyone thought we were the cutest couple,” she said, chuckling.

I shrugged her hands off my shoulders.

“We were never a couple,” I told her, my voice turning cold.

“I know that, but they didn’t,” she said. “We were voted the best couple by our peers. Don’t you ever wonder what it would be like to actually be a couple?”

“No,” I told her, my voice coming out short. “We have always just been friends, Shirley. Plus, I’m married. It would be a waste of time to think of such things.”

She rolled her eyes and sighed as she leaned against the desk, facing me.
