CHAPTER 77
Declan
"Now Declan, you can't be going in there acting all Alpha on the bitch." Carter states as he stares at the road.
We have just left Dark Moon and are heading back to our own pack as my Beta tries calming me down. My claws keep coming out and I'm tearing up the seat to the SUV, but I really don't give a fuck at the moment. That bitch has fucked up for the last time.
I turn toward my best friend in disbelief, after hearing what just came out of his mouth, "I AM her fucking Alpha, but she apparently keeps forgetting it!" I snarl.
"That's not what I mean, and you know it! Let's think about this for a moment, okay?" He takes his eyes off the road momentarily to glance at me and see that he has my full attention. I lift my brow at him as I wait for him to continue, "The Elders are going to want to see proof that Lila has done everything you are accusing her of, but you don't have any...yet. What we need to do is put a tracker on her somehow. I'd suggest having the doctor inject her with one, but that isn't going to work." He grunts.
"That's actually not a bad idea, Carter. I may not get proof of what she's done to me or Quinn, but even if we can get something on her, enough to discredit her, she will lose Luna status." I know deep down that the bitch is still sleeping around, and that alone will get her booted. Alpha's may sleep around, like my uncle, apparently, but it's a huge no for a Luna to do so. I know it isn't fair, but the Elders refuse to come out of the dark ages, where it was okay for an Alpha to have multiple she-wolves on the side.
"The only problem with my idea is, how do we get the tracker in her?" My Beta asks.
"That isn't what I'm worried about. I'm more worried about my acting skills because I'm going to have to give my best performance, making her think I want her. Then I will drug her, so we can then have her injected once she passes out."
"Damn, bro, you might as well think of another plan then," Carter snickers, "You suck ass when it comes to acting!"
"Fuck off, Beta! That was high school; I would like to think that it has gotten a little better." I laugh for the first time in days.
"I guess we shall see; won't we." Is my friend's only response.
I'm glad that Lila isn't around when we get back to the pack house because even though we have a plan, I don't think, Duke is calm enough yet to face the bitch. I feel my wolf's heartache, and his rage, all wrapped up into one big ball of hatred towards the she- wolf. I don't blame him, but unlike him, being the one to go all wolf and then ask questions later, I have to be the reasonable one most of the time. Well, mainly when it comes to Quinn, and she is a huge part of this.
Duke is hurt that she's with pup by Gavin, and so am I, but I can't be a hypocrite. I've got my own pup with another woman, but Duke doesn't seem to want to think about that.
So, when I'm told that Lila left a few hours ago, I breathe a huge sigh of relief. Lacy brings Holden out to me right away and he's got the biggest smile on his face when he spots me. Holding out his arms, he makes grabbing motions with his hands.
"Da da!"
