Chapter 19: Chapter 19

Damien glanced up at Celeb from his paperwork . His expression turned cold upon being noticed by how oddly Celeb looked on his way.

Releasing a frustrated sigh, Damien hauled up from his office chair, intended to make another hot coffee and spoke nonchalantly,

" What? Don't tell me, you have also thought the same that I will have a peaceful marital life?"

Celeb was a little taken back. It wasn't decent to speak regarding an Alpha's life. Furthermore he didn't have so much guts. Celeb cleared his throat awkwardly, helped him to get another coffee and mumbled incoherently,

" I was just wondering why you came here.."

Damien sighed softly, plopped back on his chair and replied after crossing his legs over the desk

" It's obvious because my mate didn't find me attractive and asked me to stay outside."

Celeb's eyes went wide in astonishment. Never in his life, he expected that his Alpha would be doomed by a woman one day. To avoid the arousing awkwardness, Celeb changed the topic while placing the hot mug in front of Damien,

" I have something to say regarding our borderlands. Recently the Vampire group is acting so quiet. What do you think? Are they upto something?"

Damien's expression turned grim after hearing the name of Vampires. His eyes darkened dangerously as he commented pulling up his mug,

" Keep an eye on them. They can be tricky but that doesn't mean that they are silly."

Celeb nodded in agreement and inquired with difficulties,

" Then..will you spend the entire night here Alpha?"

Damien's face sullen dangerously. He asked to raise his eyebrows together,

" What do you think? I was kidding with you?"

Celeb shook his head in absolute denial and scurried away fearfully after saying,

" No..No.. When did I say that? You can stay wherever you want..I am going to sleep in my room."

He didn't wait for Damien's approval and hurriedly left the study in order to save his life. He could admit that their new Luna was quite brave who actually managed to kick out Alpha from his own room.

That's incredible!

The night grew deeper slowly. Werewolves from woods started to come out and tail all over their descerned areas naturally leaving their scents to warn the opponents that this area belonged to them.

Around two a.m at midnight, the door of Viona's room was pushed open gently. Light and cautious footsteps started to crept inside the dark room carefully. A man's shadow fell on her sleepy face that had some signs of exhaustion. It probably caused because of the several meetings today.

Damien leant towards her closely and kept his breathing slow so that it wouldn't disturb her sleeping. His lips curled into a mischievous grin when the image of watching her bare back came across his mind. His lips pursued together in an attempt to kiss on her forehead.

After leaning till midway, his eyes shifted on her luscious lips which was slightly agaped because of her restless breathing. Damien's eyes darkened in desire almost instantly. Changing his mind, he couldn't help but lightly pecked on her lips lovingly.

Viona showed no sign of moving as if she was in deep slumber sleep. Damien chuckled in relief and whispered while getting up,

" We have a long way to go,Viona."

He left without making a sound.and shot another glance to his mate before leaving. No one knew what he meant...not even Viona who didn't even know that a certain rogue had come into her room to steal her precious kiss.

Far away from the busy pack houses, a different play was happening under the thick cover of darkeness. Alpha Dixon was kicked out from his pack after being known by the pack members that he had actually dared to create a fuss with the Alpha king. In results, they had lost all alliances and now had to live alone without anyone's assist.

Alpha Dixon groaned lowly and laid down under a huge tree weakly. After being dismissed from his position, he had nowhere to go. As the news of his commotion had spreaded through the community of werewolves, no other pack would accept him as an average member.

Dixon remorsed pitifully squeezing his eyes shut and tried to find a way to lessen this misery of his life. When he didn't look around, he failed to notice a person coming on his way.

The following moment, his eyes shot open with a shril cry when he sensed someone piercing through his skin with sharp nails. Dixon screamed out of pain and fell down with his upper body curling in pain.

Before he could look up, this time another scratch fell on his back which adjourned the valley between his back ruthlessly. Another cry from Dixon echoed in the air heavily. Before loosing his consciousness with his petite body, he heard an unknown voice coming out from up,

" You have invited your death on your own. Don't blame anyone."

Dixon numbly attempted to look up at the person. Before his eyes could meet the attacker, his neck was strangled down into the raw leaves from back hardly. Letting out another cry, he lost his last bit of sense and fell into a deep unconscious state.

Like this way, an Alpha was killed mercilessly without any witnesses around. No one knew who came in this valley nor did who killed such a powerful Alpha? Besides who dared to cross the border of Northern Lights Pack?
