Howl of Destiny: Alpha Lira’s Legend

Chapter 135 A Tricky Call

Lira’s POV:

I checked the number on my phone–it was definitely Kael’s. But why was a woman answering it?

I got annoyed for no reason, my mood turning sour fast.

Finisher

The woman’s voice came again from the other end. “Are you looking for Kael? He’s in the shower right now. He can’t come to the phone. If you got something to say, tell me—I’ll pass it on later.” Her voice was all soft and flirty.

I hung up right away, no second thoughts.

I trusted Kael, sure. But I’d be lying if I said it didn’t bother me. My heart hurt a little, like someone was pinching it.

I let Victoria take over my body right away, then ran back and forth through the forest to let off steam…

Third–Person Perspective:

At that moment…

Inside the presidential suite at the Austin Hotel, Thunder Pack…

Jessica Ibarra looked at the phone in her hand, a satisfied smile pulling at her lips.

She deleted the call she’d just answered and put the phone back on the table, exactly where she’d found it.

If Lira had been there, she would’ve recognized this woman–she was the only female among the top executives who’d walked behind Kael in the Empire Group building, back in Silverwhip Pack.

Just then, the bathroom door opened. Kael walked out wearing a dark gray bathrobe, fresh out of the shower. His bangs were damp, falling over his forehead. He looked less intimidating than the Lycan King he was, but way sexier.

Jessica stared at him, completely lost in him. The first time she’d seen him at a party, she’d known–he was the one she wanted.

He was a pure–blood noble descendant, the top male werewolf. Her wolf spirit, just like her, craved to mate with him.

Growing up as the daughter of the Alpha of Havenwood Pack, everything had always gone her way. So she thought, naturally, that he should be hers too.

She’d worked so hard to get close to him–she’d joined Empire Group, worked her way up to project director, and finally made it to the top executive team.

She’d thought being close to him would make him notice her. But then, out of nowhere, a girl showed up. -just a lowly Omega!

How could she accept that?

Chapter 135 A Tricky Call

Finished

This business trip–she wasn’t supposed to come. But she’d begged Gary to let her come, saying she was the project leader.

She’d thought she’d get more chances to be near Kael. But she couldn’t even get close to him.

If she hadn’t run into Gary earlier–he’d been supposed to bring the documents in, but he’d had an emergency. She’d jumped at the chance to take his place.

That’s how she’d gotten into the presidential suite. As soon as she walked in, she’d heard the phone ringing. The screen said “Lira“-she’d guessed it was that girl he treated so softly. Jealousy had filled her up, crazy

with it.

So without thinking, she’d answered the phone and said those words, just to stir up

trouble…

Kael saw the woman suddenly in his room. His face turned dark right away. His wolf eyes glowed as he stared at her, his voice cold as ice. “Who told you you could come in?!”

His harsh words snapped Jessica out of her thoughts. She quickly looked away from him, stammering, “Gary had an emergency. He asked me to bring the documents.”

Kael glanced at the documents on the table, then put away his wolf eyes. But his gaze was still sharp as he looked at her. “Put the documents down and get out. And don’t let this happen again.”

Jessica’s face turned pale, like all the blood had drained from it.

Her heart hurt so bad that she could barely breathe.

She was a noble alpha’s daughter. She’d left her pack and come here alone to work for him, just to get close. Had she worked this hard for nothing? Couldn’t he see how good she was? Couldn’t she attract him?

She took a deep breath, forcing a smile. “I’ll leave now.”

She hurried toward the door.

She knew she couldn’t rush it. Even though Kael had that girl around, she was sure–with her looks and status, Kael would choose her in the end.

He’d have to be crazy to pick a lowly Omega as his mate.
