Chapter 53
“Tom, what were you doing behind the door?”
Tom was furious, but his anger was directed at Charlotte. Even though Alpha Nick had refused to mate with her, she kept pursuing him. How shameless could she be after all the promises they had made to each other and his warnings to her?
Pain pierced Tom’s heart, but he forced a smile. “Nick, I was coming to get you.”
Alpha Nick was not pleased with the intrusion of his privacy and warned Tom seriously. “When I’m with my mate, don’t disturb me next time.”
His words and actions were clear signs of his love for her, but Charlotte still couldn’t understand his reason for not wanting to mate with her.
Shame covered Charlotte’s face when she saw Tom glaring at her with disappointment as he responded to Alpha Nick. “Sure, sure. Can we go now? And why the sudden anger?”
“It’s not your business. Let’s go,” Alpha Nick snarled. He was not pleased with his best friend’s behavior after his,
return.
“Can I say hi to her?” Tom had not moved from the doorway and asked, and Alpha Nick’s eyes narrowed.
“You already said hi downstairs.”
Tom desperately wanted to talk to Charlotte but never imagined that Alpha Nick would be so possessive of her
when he refused to mate with her.
“Well, I think she doesn’t like me, so I wanted to acquaint myself with her,” Tom explained, hoping that his
excuse would make sense.
Alpha Nick glared at him, then called one of the maids and whispered something to her. The maid returned with
a key.
Alpha Nick took it and said to Charlotte, “I’m locking you inside, If you need anything, call me on the phone.”
“Nick…” the door slammed before she heard the key turning. Tom’s gaze darkened. Charlotte was locked inside.

the room because she was in her lingerie and hadn’t attempted to cover up even with Tom’s presence.
“What are you doing?” Tom asked Alpha Nick, shocked by his move. Alpha Nick shrugged. This was his pack
anyway.
“Making sure that you don’t go in there,” he warned seriously. Tom was afraid that he suspected their relationship or something of that sort. If not for the things he eavesdropped, he would have no doubt said that Alpha Nick was in love with Charlotte, but which man would love a woman and not want to mate with her?
“Nick, what has come over you? Aren’t you overreacting?”
Alpha Nick was upset and didn’t hide it. Glaring at him, he asked, “Tom, do you think I didn’t see the way you. looked at her downstairs? Was it a coincidence that you disappeared the same day she did on our wedding? I think I should investigate that matter.”

Tom froze. Maybe, he should have listened to Charlotte and not paid a visit to the Dark Moon Pack. “Nick, are you
crazy?” He pretended to be clueless of the accusation.
Alpha Nick was unmoved. “Tom, if I find out that you have anything to do with her disappearance, I will kill you and send your corpse to your Alpha. I don’t think we have more to talk about. The maids will show you the guest room. I will have an early rest. Good night.”
“I’m patient. I want to ride with you,” Tom insisted. Charlotte paled, but Alpha Nick’s response remained.
