The Alpha Who Saved Me novel Chapter 127

CHAPTER 127

Declan

After speaking to Alpha Jaydon again just before lunch time, we've decided to send out men to search for these three strangers. I don' t like the feeling that I'm getting since Frankie came to warn us. The last thing we need is for Quinn to be in danger once again, but I guess that comes with being the last Dire wolf. With her twentieth birthday only days away, I want to make sure she stays protected at all costs. She's going to have around the clock guards wherever she goes, and I already know that she isn't going to like it. Until she comes into her powers and can control them, she will never be alone outside of her pack house.

I've come home to try and get some pack business done and make a few business calls having to do with some of the businesses that the pack owns in the human town. It's very hard to concentrate when all this other shit is happening, though. My concern for Quinn grows by the hour, not being around her, and so I pack up both my son, and yes, my mother, and we head over to Dark Moon. I leave instructions with Carter that I will be in, periodically, to check on things, but until Quinn's birthday, I need to make sure she stays safe.

"What's going on, Declan?" My mother eyes me suspiciously on the way over to Quinn's, "I know you and Quinn have been doing the nasty together, I can smell her all over you." Her lips quirk upwards, but she tries to remain stern, "You shouldn't be playing with her like this, she cannot be your chosen until we can get Lila denounced. Oo," she continues without even taking a breath, "Maybe since she's disappeared, the Elders will take her title away!"

'For the love of the Goddess, please tell her, so she can stop rambling on!' Duke growls in my head.

'Calm down, it's not really my place to say, Duke. This is Quinn's life.'

'Remember when you hadn't told Carter, and she asked you why? She pretty much gave you permission to tell those that you trust. If you can't trust mama, then you have issues.'

'Alright, fine! Look who's being the annoying one now!' I scold him and he gives me a wolfish smirk.

"Mother, will you stop already. Yes, Quinn and I have been intimate, but I have it on good authority that she is my mate."

"Wait, what?" My mother goes speechless, but only for a moment, "Why do you think that? You should have known by now whether she was your mate or not. Do you not know the signs..."

"Mother! Quinn is a Dire wolf!" I yell at her in the enclosed car.

She gasps and then covers her mouth, "THE last Dire wolf? The one the legend speaks of?"

I sigh, "Yes, that Dire wolf." I spend the rest of the car ride over to Quinn's territory explaining everything that has taken place. Ever since my mother and Dr. Sands started seeing each other, I've barely seen her...or is it since Quinn and I started back up together?

Anyway, it doesn't matter who it is that is gone more, the point is, I catch her up on everything, all the way up to this new threat that we've just learned about. My mother now looks worried too. An unknown threat is one of the most dangerous because you never see it coming, especially if you don't know who the threat is.

Quinn greets us as we pull up, and as always, she goes to my mother first. She's trying to be inconspicuous about us, but finally, when I can't take it any longer, I pull her into my arms, and kiss her hard before I give her back to my grinning mother.

"She already knows about us. She can smell you all over me, so I had to tell her." I chuckle as she blushes and looks at my mom.

My mother, being my mother, pulls Quinn in for another hug, "Are you happy sweetie?"

Quinn bits her damn bottom lip and glances over at me before nodding to my mother, "Yeah, I am, Amelia. I hope we can stay this way."
