Chapter 51: Chapter 51

- Gabriella's POV -

"You are smart, Gabriella. You know damn well what this is all about." He coldly said and I was stunned as I stared at his serious facial expression.

I wonder if this is truly Butch or not. Well, he's wrong, I am not that smart, although I looked brat but my grades are high... wait, how did he know that?

Oh well, I still considered myself stupid. I am not that smart to defend myself, I am not that smart to help myself from my status and... I am not that smart to assume what he meant by his words.

If what I think is right... I still wouldn't believe it.

"I... I think... I have to go." I stated as I stood up, trying to calm the fast beating of my heart.

But before I walked away he held my hand which caused an intense reaction to my body, that sparks, I knew he felt it too, "Let me take you home."

I shook my head still in disbelief, of all people why does it have to be this man? "I can handle myself." I said as I pulled my hand out of his hold.

He gripped on it tighter, "No, you can't." He insisted and started dragging me again out of his office.

I was out of words, still processing the truth. Is Butch Fender, the Alpha of one of the strongest pack, the Crescendo Pack is my... mate?

Fuck, my heart had gone haywire but my mind is still processing. Did I just win a jackpot?

- Third Person's POV -

There are still attempts of attacks in the borders of werewolves territory and it was all made by black witches as they put a spell on vampires and use them as their own puppet.

However, it was a little quiet despite some attacks because soldiers were able to handle it on themselves without the need for the skilled werewolves such as their Alphas.

Despite that, Alpha King Daxton and his two friends, Butch and Cyrus still visit the border from time to time to ensure that everything is under control. They care more about their people than themselves, they were not worried about stepping on the war zone.

The rumors are also a little controlled now because werewolves were not as afraid as they were when they heard the attacks. The 3K's made sure that their people would not be inflicted by fear. That was one of the reasons why they decided to attend their classes despite battling and defending the land all night. They wanted to let the werewolves know that the Kingdom is fine and under control.

"You really couldn't stop the attacks..." Dexter said with full of mockery the moment he entered Daxton's office.

Daxton only stared at his glass of liquor and played the ice with his index finger. He did not even bother to give a response to his cousin.

Due to the silent treatment that Daxton gave, Dexter suddenly got irritated that he dashed towards the Alpha King and gripped his collar. Butch and Cyrus was just sitting on the couch nearby, entertained by the scene in front of them.

He gritted his teeth, "You fucking useles! All you could think was to marry that Ruthfield."

Daxton slowly glared at his cousin, not enjoying every single of it which caused Dexter fear as his eyes held shock but immediately covered it. Daxton then pushed his cousin, which made Dexter lose grip on his collar. It looks like an effortless push but it almost made Dexter fly.

"Why don't you marry her?" Daxton said coldly as he fixed his collar as if nothing happened. He knew for a fact that his cousin likes Yskela but he doesn't feel the same.

It was all just for a rumor that they were going to marry.

His parents wanted that woman for him, for the sake of power, however, Daxton never liked that woman, nor even planned to marry her. For him, he just lets rumors spread in order to protect what is truly his. That concept is just a cover up for his enemy so as not to discover his true weakness. He doesn't care for that woman Yskela, even if his enemies would go and kill her... he doesn't care.

He will only marry one girl, the girl that was destined for him by the Moon Goddess. Right now, his focus is to destroy his enemy before they discover his mate and use her against him.

"You fucking bastard!" Dexter exclaimed to Daxton before leaving the place.

Daxton on the other hand seemed to be calm, not even a bit afraid.

"Your cousin should learn some manners," Cyrus commented.

"Manners are not for everyone, Cyrus." Butch replied.

Cyrus nodded, agreeing with the statement.

"How's the status of your territories?" Daxton suddenly asked which caught their attention.

Cyrus cleared his throat, "I haven't heard issues about vampires and black witches on my territory, it was quiet but we were prepared in case."

"Mine, good. Just some vampires trying to enter the border but they're dead before the sunrise." Butch said as if it was nothing.

Daxton nodded, "We have to keep an eye on the East side, their guard is getting weaker, it could be used as a path for vampires to enter the land."

Cyrus' forehead furrowed, "How's the Alpha on the East? I heard his situation worsened?"

"I thought it was just a rumor, so is it true that the Alpha on the East was sick?" Butch added in curiosity.

Daxton nodded, "Jonathan is getting worse, he was still searching for a possible candidate in exchange to his position."

"Jonathan... Jonathan Leidea?" Butch asked with a creepy smile formed on his lips as he looked at Cyrus.

Cyrus snorted while Daxton just stared at them wearing no emotions.

"Cyrus, you take an eye on that side. Strengthen their guard, we shouldn't let an enemy enter the land." Daxton ordered but it made Cyrus immediately face him.

"But that was far from-" He protested, however, Daxton raised his hand making him shut.

"No buts, just do your job." With the Alpha King authoritative voice, he couldn't protest.

While Butch on the other hand couldn't stop the grin formed on his lips which made Cyrus even more frustrated.

Daxton leaned on his swivel chair as he just stared at them with his thoughts running somewhere.
