"Alpha Derek!" I slammed the door open, and as usual, beta Venus was also there beside him. I marched toward his desk and stopped, "Alpha Seff just went off after causing such a commotion. Can you at least give us a gist why? Did you and Alpha Seff fight over something?"
Liam closes the door behind us. Alpha Derek didn't even spare us a glance when he replied, while beta Venus wondered what the hell was going on.
"No, we didn't. He's just a douchebag no need to worry."
I rubbed my temples in frustration, "No Alpha, this time's different. He was hostile to us earlier. He even shifted!"
"What's going? Why didn't I hear about this?" beta Venus cuts in.
"Well.." I trailed off. I looked at Alpha Derek as he signaled me to shut my mouth off. "..Though the scene was chaotic, we handled the situation anyway."
She glares at me, "That's not an excuse!"
"Venus. Drop it." Alpha Derek says in a low voice. "For now, go to the borders to check if anything needs to be fixed."
Beta Venus crosses her arms, "Liam can do that. I want to hear more details about what Easton wants to say."
"It's nothing important-"
"Then more the reason why I should stay, if it's so irrelevant, why are you being so sensitive about letting me stay in the same room?" She growls slightly, irritated.
Alpha Derek sighs, his hand resting on his forehead. "Don't be stubborn and go. I have to talk to Easton privately."
Confused, Liam and I looked at each other. We couldn't guess what was going on- or if we were hallucinating since beta Venus was raising her voice against Alpha Derek yet, he was letting her off- to the point by begging her so.
"No." She firmly says.
"Then how about this? I'll do anything you want, so can you please let this slide for once and leave?"
Beta Venus's eyes sparkled in satisfaction. "I can do that, i like people giving me wishes after all. Right? Easton?"
I gulped. Why did she drag me into this! Alpha Derek will misunderstand!
As beta Venus strolled out of the room, I felt Alpha Derek's eyes darken in jealousy as he looked at me from a distance. A sweat broke to the sides of my face.
"Easton, What did she mean by that?" He hissed, his hands clasped together on the table.
[-"Goodluck"-] Liam mindlinks me before running away.
[TRAITOR!!"]
Once Liam left, I froze to my spot. It was only Alpha Derek and I, so I got scared that he might vent his anger on me if I said something wrong.
"U-Uhmm... it's nothing alpha. I just owed a debt from beta Venus. That's why I told her I'll do anything she wants- but she still hasn't told me, so it's still a deal between us." I coughed uncomfortably, "Anyway, going back to the main subject. Alpha Seff wanted me to relay to you to contact him soon."
