Chapter 59
Caleb’s POV
“Alpha, Beta,” the guard greeted me. He had an unmistakable cuon his face. My brows furrowed as we both stared at him.
“What happened?” I demanded. Jacob straightened from his spot on the couch and eyed the guard with interest in his eyes.
The guard replied, “We caught an intruder in the pack. We found him hiding in the back stairwells of this mansion Alpha. He claims to be innocent. But we don’t know for sure.”
Intruder.
A chill ran through me. With a growl I slammed my hand on the table which shook. Gulping down the rest of the whiskey I had poured in my cup shortly I turned to the guard with a dark are.
“How was he caught? Tell me everything.”
That was how the whole s to u came out. Apparently it was a mail who had sounded that alarm after finding the man hiding underneath the outer windowsill of Daria’s bedroom.
If not for the fact that Daria had left so suddenly, who knew what would have happened.
Feeling even more angered, I asked the guard, “Where is he now!”
“In the cells beneath the mansion Alpha. We will move him once you give the orders.”
“Don’t. Keep this news quiet. No one outside the mansion should hear a word of this.” My orders came swiftly.
Jacob furrowed his brows and glanced at me in confusion. He had no idea yet about the threat to Daria or what I had suspected about a stranger entering the Wisteria Pack through the eastern gate.
Sighing inwardly I told the guard, “You May go. Have the guards keep watch on him until I say so.”
The guard bowed deeply to myself and then to Jacob before turning around and leaving in a uniform stride.
“Alright. Explain,” Jacob spoke as soon as the door was shut and faced me. “Who’s the guy and why do you not want his actions known to the pack.”
“Because I will handle things myself.” I stated. Then I reached around the table and took out the note before handing it to Jacob
His expression got darker as he read it.
“When was this?” He demanded.
“It was yesterday. It was sent to Daria. And she is clearly a target explained “And I suspect more than ever that Alpha Kingston of the Red Vale Pack might be involved.”
His brows rose further
“You mean to tell me that Alpha Kingston might be targeting his taughter?” He sounded disbelieving “Isis’t he the same one who offered her hand in marriage back then? Why would he attk her?”
I opened my mouth to answer but quickly shut it back if tarianted to keep her tuuhuous relationship with her father more private then I should be the uns to expose all
Let’s say that they don’t see eye to eye and is member Dharia habeen away for years om Alpha Kington was nothing

more than to use her. And if he can’t..” I trailed off and recalled the way he had attacked her physically even though I was in the same room. It still evokes anger so much that I clenched my hand and looked away with nostrils flaring.
“This is a lot to take in. So that’s why you wanted Daria kept safe
“There’s more. Alpha Townsend has evidence that the Red valeck is involved with the rogue attacks. He has allied the Dartmouth pack with us once more. And I trust him. He is a ma of his word as far as I know. More than I could ever trust alpha Kingston,” I finished.
Om discussion lasted about an hour a we came up with some suable strategies especially for strength Inc our defenses. Due to Jacobs help I knew that I wouldn’t be facing much pushback fom other factions. I had no doubt that not everyone in the pack was supporting me. Just because I’d gotten rid of Beta Drac and the rest didn’t mean that I was safe from the machinations of others.
Jacob left after a short while. I sat on the chair behind the desk. little tipsy from the continuous flow of whiskey I’d taken through my discussions with my best friend I let my eyes wander around the study just like my mind. Yet no matter how hard I trie each time my mind would drift to her.
My eyes stayed fixed on the newest charcoal sketch I’d made. I had started indulging myself again. But only just a little. The sketches I made of her were only a little way of me showing my intentions.
