Five Alphas Kneel for Me (Isabella) novel Chapter 284

Chapter284.

My turbulent emotions gradually settled, and I pressed my lips together, softly saying, “I didn’t know you were in council. I’m sorry for interrupting…” My wolf calmed, its frantic energy subsiding.

Grayson walked in slowly, his dark eyes fixed on me as he reached out to touch my fur, a gentle smile playing on his lips. His touch sent a jolt of warmth through me; my wolf relaxed under his calming presence.

“It’s the council break,” Grayson said, taking a seat across from me.

His scribe, who had entered with him, thought, “When has there ever been a break during a council meeting in the Smith Clan!”

I licked my lips nervously, “It’s almost midday. I wanted to share the midday meal with you.”

My wolf felt a tremor of excitement.

A soft chuckle escaped Grayson’s lips, as if he could see through my reluctance to speak, sensing my awkwardness without calling me

out on it.

“Okay.”

Facing his gentleness, I licked my lip, suddenly looking up.

“How long have you had someone watching over me?”

My wolf felt a tremor of anxiety, a need for reassurance.

A faint smile played in his eyes. Since three years ago.”

It was after Emily joined the Millers, and my brothers started mistreating me. He must have started placing scouts around me out of

concern.

My wolf felt a surge of gratitude.

“Why didn’t you take me away sooner?” My throat felt dry, and my eyes slightly moistened. My wolf felt a deep wound opening up.

Grayson’s gaze softened, his eyes deepening. “Because you wanted me to take you away.”

His gaze sent shivers down my spine; my wolf felt a profound connection.

I blinked, my eyes brimming with surprise. So, in my past life, I never asked for his help, never thought of leaving the Miller Clan? My wolf felt a pang

of

regret.

Suddenly, I recalled how Faye had visited me in the Moonstone Pack prison, saying she would find a way to get me out. I thought it was just her trying to fight against the Miller Clan, and I worried about dragging her down, so I refused.

My wolf felt the weight of that past decision.

I opened my mouth, regretting that moment. Grayson, being as clever as he was, must have seen through it. He didn’t come to save me… My wolf whimpered.

A weight pressed against my chest. Could it be… could it be that Grayson didn’t come because he was powerless, and Faye was trying to contact him? What had happened to Grayson? My wolf was gripped by fear.

As this possibility struck me, I clutched my fur tightly, my claws unsheathing slightly.

“What are you thinking about? I will handle it.” His scent was a calming balm to my wolf.

I looked up at Grayson. His smile was gentle, but his eyes held a chilling intensity. His wolf was ready to fight.

I lowered my head, licking my sore eyes, and laughed, “Mason is so annoying.”

“He won’t appear near FireClan again to bother you.”

I nodded vigorously, the ache in my eyes intensifying.

“You’re just in time. I have something for you,” Grayson produced an invitation and handed it to me.

I took it, lowering my head to read its contents, trying to mask the emotions threatening to spill over.

“Charity gala invitation…”

My wolf sensed a trap.

I quickly understood Grayson’s intention–Mason would take Emily, attempting to rehabilitate her image! Grayson would bring me to disrupt the event! My wolf felt a spark of mischievous glee.

My suppressed emotions suddenly burst forth, and I couldn’t help but laugh.

“Are

you

free on the next full moon?”

“Absolutely!”

The same invitation was delivered to Emily. She touched the gleaming gold foil, imagining the extravagant atmosphere of the gala.
