Five Alphas Kneel for Me (Isabella) novel Chapter 465

One was a scion of a prominent Washington Clan; the other an heiress in Columbia.

While their worlds differed, it was natural they’d be acquainted.

The Silvermoon Pack might be known in Los Angeles territory, but not so much in Washington or Columbia.

So I didn’t think Chloe would know who I was.

Chloe set down her glass and approached me, a sincere smile on her face.

“Mr. Smith made quite a scene on the Howlnet for you, Miss Miller.

I’ve heard your name, and it’s hardly surprising.” She spoke openly, but there was a hint of sadness in her maybe a little envy.

“To be honest, I envy you, Miss Miller.

Your blood bond with Mr. Smith is enviable.”

That struck me for a second.

I tried to recall what I knew about Chloe.

In my past life, I was obsessed with my family and then Grayson.

I hadn’t paid much attention to others.

I vaguely remembered Chloe as a powerful, shrewd she–wolf.

But even until my death, I never heard of her forming a blood bond.

Chloe’s words were like a dagger to Julia’s heart.

The thing she hated most was hearing about how much Grayson cared for me.

t was a constant reminder that she was the outsider.

Her face froze,

for someone as proud as her, she’d never bowed her head to anyone but Grayson.

Without hesitation, she looked at me.

“I choose Miss Miller.”

The air seemed to freeze for a second.

Julia laughed, like she’d just heard the world’s funniest joke.

“You’d rather choose someone discarded by her pack and taken in by my mate over me–a socialite in Washington?” She was practically accusing Chloe of being blind!

Chloe didn’t

“I simply want a partner who is emotionally stable and clear–headed.”

“What do you mean?” Julia snapped.

Chloe glanced at her, calm as ever.

“The villa development your mate built… There’s going to be a high–speed rail line right next to it soon.”

Julia’s pupils constricted.

“What are you talking about?”

Chloe said calmly, “I’ve heard about it in Columbia.” She then turned to me.

“I figured Miss Miller, far away in Los Angeles, already knew this too–that’s why she set up that deal and sold the villas so fast.

But you, Miss Smith, being in Washington, should have been the first to know, but you knew nothing and spent a fortune buying those soon–to–depreciate properties.”

Julia understood.

She’d spent all that money, made such a big show, thinking she’d won–only to realize she’d walked right into a trap! Julia spun around, glaring at me, eyes burning with fury.

“You set me up!”

I met her poisonous stare and let a slow smile curl on my lips.

I moved my mouth and said just one word.

“Yes.”
