The Silent Alpha novel Chapter 44

**"Wyatt (Sebastian’s Gamma)*** 

"We have it on good authority that several powerful silver wolves live within a pack known as River Moon," I explain on the phone.

"But have you seen him?" Alpha Sebastian asks.

"Have you actually seen him?"?

"Not exactly, sir.We are headed there n---"

"Then why the f**k are you wasting my time!?" Sebastian snarls.

"Call me when you have that boy on the first flight back to Seattle or don’t bother coming back at all!"

The Alpha hangs up before I can respond and I tuck my phone back into my pocket with a heavy sigh.

The past week has been a nightmare searching for Zane, with no one knowing of a silver wolf arriving in San Francisco.We visited several packs, hoping some scout in the region may have spotted him or Agnes, but our search was all in vain.

No one had come across a silver wolf...

Until a few days ago.

While attending an Alpha meeting in the Bay Area as a guest Gamma with the Redwood pack, news arrived of a split between the largest pack in Northern California, River Moon, and some powerful pack from France called Lune de Minuit.I wouldn’t have cared had it not been for one small detail.

The split was long overdue from what I gathered but the straw that broke the camel’s back was almost hard to believe: a guest silver wolf staying at the River Moon pack peed on the French Alpha’s son.

Shortly Upon further investigation, I found out that River Moon is the leader pack of a recently established kingdom, The Ivory Phoenix kingdom, and that its members include high-ranking Silver wolves.

Unfortunately, with their recent split from Lune de Minuit, getting an appointment with River Moon’s King has been close to impossible and my connections here in California have been unable to arrange for me to meet with any member of the lvory Phoenix Royal family.

I am left with no choice but to request an audience with any of the pack members at their gate.

Armed only with a Royal decree demanding Zane’s return and the two i***t wolves in training that have been assigned to me.

Caine and Korbin have been a pain in the ass all week but I am most concerned with the decree.

Sebastian may have cast out his son but Zane is technically still a subject of King Arthur’s kingdom.

Zane cannot merge with another pack until his King casts him out as a rogue as well.I just hope the Ivory Phoenix respects the decree and hands him over without a fuss.

King Arthur will not go down without a fight on this matter.

"I have assigned a number of my men to accompany you to the River Moon pack," Alpha Ryan of the Redwood Pack says.

"River Moon is a well established and highly respected pack.Whatever you do, don’t cause trouble.They are armed with some especially gifted silver wolves and you do not want them as your enemy," he warns.

"Is it true their Luna is an Ivory wolf?" my son, Korbin, asks.

"I have never met her but a word of advice? Do not believe every rumor you hear, boy," Alpha Ryan chuckles.

"She is very likely just an overly ambitious silver wolf"

"Silver wolves don’t build Kingdoms,"

I counter, Alpha Ryan only shrugging.I can’t argue with that logic and finish loading up the car.

The River Moon Pack is about a three hour drive from the Redwood pack so after a quick breakfast, we start heading north.

Caine is suspiciously quiet during the ride up, probably anxious to meet his mysterious older brother.

"How come we never knew about Alpha Sebastian’s older son?" Korbin asks, stretching out his arms and legs.

"It was for his safety," I reply, watching Caine from the rear-view mirror.

He does not look at me, but I can tell he is curious to know more about his brother.

"After Luna Elenore was killed, Alpha Sebastian felt it was in the pack's best interest to hide his elder son from the public eye and from himself.He sent him away to live in an undisclosed location.No one, not even the Alpha knows where he is."

"What’s his name?" Korbin prys, Caine’s ear twitching.

"His name is unimportant," I sigh, growing annoyed with all his questions.

"We just have to find him."

"Well how are we supposed to find him if we don’t know what he looks like or what his name is?" Korbin mutters.

"I have all the information we need about the Alpha’s son," I snap.

"Care to share?" Caine questions me.

"He is, afterall, my older brother.”

"You will know when I tell you," I warn through a snarl.

"Is he going to be the Alpha now that we know he exists?" Korbin blurts out.

I love my son, but sometimes he has a brain the size of a peanut.

"Alpha Sebastian was very clear," I reply, Caine and I making eye contact through the mirror.

"Caine is the only heir to the Alpha title.

His Little smirk curls on Caine’s lips as he turns away to stare out the window, a cold shiver running down my spine.

**Zane*** 

"All you have to do is roll the ball down the lane and knock out all those pins at the end," Talia explains as we walk towards our lane with our rental shoes, Kota’s eyes widening with excitement.

I have never been to a bowling alley and arcade before, my eyes working overtime to take in all the sounds, lights, and people.

Kids and adults alike laugh and scream at each other while they play games, all of them having a good time.

A lump in my throat forms as I watch a father and his two sons play a racing game together, all three laughing hysterically as the older son wins the match.I would have liked to play games with my father and Caine.I would have liked to have a brother. f*"k them hoes...

Grayson grumbles.

We got our own pack now.We don’t need no Daddy.We are DADDY.

"Daddy look!" Kota cries, pointing at the multi-patterned bowling balls lined up on the racks.

"Can I have a green one?"

"We will find a small one for you," Talia says as we arrive at our lane.

She helps Kota into his shoes and types in our names on the display screen hanging above us.

Talia goes first, explaining the basics to me.

"Okay so you just step, step, swing, and release," She smiles, releasingWe watch the ball roll all the way to the end, knocking over 8 pins.

"You can also use those dots on the lane to help guide you," she adds, pointing to the guides at the mouth of the lane.

"Just aim and shoot." She goes for a second shot, this time missing both pins and chuckling to herself.

"Now you go," She giggles select a heavier ball and take my fist shot which immediately goes right into the gutter.

"Oh-uh, Daddy!" Kota gasps, cupping his cheeks in shock.

"You missed! Grayson purrs and wags his tag happily every time Kota says Daddy, and I catch Talia smiling shyly to herself every time.I can only hope it makes her as happy as it makes me.

"Daddy gets another try," Talia explains, a warm tingle running down my spine.

Hehe, Daddy, Grayson smirks.I show her who's her Daddy...Ignoring Grayson and his inappropriate comments, I take my second shot, knocking over two pins.

"My turn, my turn!" Kota cries, Talia attempting to help him carry the ball.

"No Mommy," he swats her hand.
