The Alpha's Mate Is A Spy novel Chapter 32

~*~*~

*DEREK's POV*

"Admit it. You like Venus. You want her Alpha Derek."

I don't want to lie to myself anymore.

I frowned.

The truth is, there was no day I wouldn't think about Venus and the possibilities if ever she became mine. Every night, I would get dreams about her- as if she was even haunting me whenever I closed my eyes.

I was doing well resisting her attempts, but I finally gave in just a while ago. This thirst of wanting her... I couldn't quench it even if I touched her for mere 5 seconds.

I jumped to the pit myself.

"You're right, I like Venus." I chuckled bitterly, "It's different from what I feel towards Cheryl. But...I can't feel her sincerity. I know that Venus's just playing around with me. You see it, right? She's oblivious to love, I always feel that she's just trying to get something from me,"

She's like this demon seductress that's trying to kill me, to drain the life out of me. Whenever she tried to manipulate me, I didn't give a damn... I was even happy that she was making an effort to get my attention.

"Alpha.. what do you plan to do with her then?" Easton says in a worried expression.

"For now... I won't let her get what she wants so easily. I have to find out what she's hiding."

"Then?"

I looked at Easton, "then I'll make her mine."

~*~*~*~

As soon as I finished delegating Easton's task for the week, I summoned their whole squad to my office since I had something to announce to them formally. All of them entered with confused expressions, Venus's arms crossing with each other as she stared back at me.

"Since you're all here, let's get straight to the point." I stood up, "This has been planned for a long time, even before you became a part of Crescent Moon. Though, we didn't exactly want to introduce you to respect your privacy. But this concerns the Great Five Packs. Tomorrow we'll set off to Stone City. Make sure you finish all your task for the day,"

Venus coughs, catching my attention. "What's there to be so curious about us? Isn't this just some ploy to summon us outside? Wouldn't Crescent Moon be vulnerable to attacks if we leave?"

"All five packs will be there. If we're vulnerable, so they're. Anyway, there are always countermeasures for events like these. It's no big deal."

"Countermeasures? You mean you have some kind of method that can ward off small packs that could possibly attack this land?"

"Small packs aren't a concern."

"Underestimating an enemy is bad, alpha. Though they're small in numbers, if they suddenly team up and attack Crescent Moon, wouldn't it equal to one of the packs from the Great Five Packs?"

I sighed, "I understand what you're worried about. But don't worry, the five packs have done this several times, and there's no way anyone would even plot against us since tracking them would be a piece of cake if they ever decided to set foot in any of our land."

"Even so, being careful than ignorant is better, isn't it?"

Something's weird.
