Two times rejected Luna, the desire of all Alphas - Chapter 12

Chapter 12 – Can’t you knock?
Alpha Denzel analyzed the situation once again. Even if Alpha Idris had sent the letters weeks ago without him knowing, his main objective then was not Valerie, since she was still at the Yellowstone pack by then.

It had only been a week since Valerie became a member of the Evergreen pack, so what could trigger Alpha Idris to change the reason for his visit to be one concerning Valerie? Somehow, Alpha Denzel wanted to know but also had something important to do there.

He went to his secretary’s office, but the documents he requested weren’t ready. Capitalizing on it, he said to her, “You are slow, so you have to reschedule again. I will be away for a week.”

Cornelia was deflated at the use of the word ‘slow’ by her boss, knowing that she was the fastest and smartest secretary, for which reason he hired her.

However, she was rather grateful for his being away this time, as she was certain to prepare everything before his return. There was only another pending matter which would require her boss’ attention.

“Yes, sir, but what about the managers you instructed HR to recruit?”

Alpha Denzel did not respond immediately, thinking through the situation. Knowing what he had done to the Yellowstone pack and the fact that Alpha Tristan and Luna Scarlet were still alive, he was quite interested in knowing what the Yellowstone pack was up to after the attack.

The managers for his casinos spread across Las Vegas were indeed needed, so he could have more time to attend to issues of the pack.

“Tell her to proceed with the interviews and send details of the best candidates to my email.”

“Yes, sir.”

He was about to leave before turning around and saying, “Also send an email for the video of the whole interview process to be sent to my email.” He wanted the most qualified person for the job and not some HR’s favorite.

At the Evergreen pack, Adira went to meet Alpha Idris in the living room, feeling tense. Before reaching there, she ensured that no warriors or omegas lingered around.

“You didn’t get a reply to my letters,” Alpha Idris accused as soon as she entered. She halted in her steps. Not responding to the letters was her indirect way of telling him not to come, but since he was here, she was lost for words, as she was not expecting him to stubbornly show up without a response from the Alpha or Beta.

“I apologize. I’ve been very busy.” Her tone was extremely polite, almost pleading, as Alpha Idris stood up and walked up to her. His platinum blonde mohawk hairstyle gave him a fierce look.

Adira noticed that he had dyed his hair from the neutral blonde, but the platinum blonde still complemented him perfectly. Since she was naturally attracted to the fierce kind, she was not intimidated when he stopped just a meter away from her, glaring into her amber eyes.

“Busy?” Disappointment laced his tone as he accused her, “But you respond to all other packs. From the looks of it, it’s about what happened between us, isn’t it?”

Recalling that incident, her cheeks crimsoned, but she soon regained her senses. Alpha Denzel would be greatly displeased if he hears about it. “You promised to keep it a secret.”

Alpha Idris grinned evilly, his eyes coated with a seductive mask, as he took advantage of the situation.

“And it will remain that way on one condition.”

Adira felt the temperature in the room drop, her heart thumping in her chest as she guessed that this was not going to be good. How stupid of her to have trusted that Alpha Idris to keep what happened between them a secret.

It was uncomfortable to feel trapped in her own pack. “What is that?” She glared back at him and asked. Alpha Idris had nothing to lose even if the secret was out, so the only person who could lose everything was Adira, for the fact that she was secretly in love with her Alpha, which Alpha Idris already discerned.

“Convince your Alpha to send Valerie to my pack,” Alpha Idris blurted out. Adira let out an evil smirk. This was better than she imagined.

“Of course.” If Valerie woke up dead, then no Alpha would want her again right?

It was night, and everywhere in the Evergreen pack was quiet. The lights shone brightly as an intimidating figure walked into the pack house in one of the emergency wears. The packhouse was quiet, the sound of a knock reverberating through Adira’s door.

“Adira, come out.”

Aside from the indifference, anger laced the Alpha’s tone at the mention of her name, which could not go unnoticed. Adira was asleep but woke up at the sound of the voice, quickly changing from her nightie to casual clothes.

She would have wished to see him in her nightie, but knew that would be detrimental to her relationship with the Alpha. He would instantly see through her and might even banish her.

The reason why Alpha Denzel soared among other Alphas was the fact that he had great control over his zip. No woman could boast of having slept with the Alpha, unlike other packs where the unmated Alphas would please themselves with a willing she-wolf or woman.

Alpha Denzel was nothing like that. Even when he had fun with women in his club when in high spirits, his bodyguards knew him too well to allow any woman into his bedroom afterwards.

The most he could do would be to drink and dance with them, but that was all. As Adira stepped out, Alpha Denzel’s eyes squinted when he saw the dress she wore but didn’t say anything about it.

He began to walk ahead, and she followed but caught up to him, trying to strike a conversation. “How was your journey? You didn’t tell me that you were returning so soon.”

Due to his personality, Adira could not detect how upset he was when he responded indifferently, “When were you going to inform me about Alpha Idris’s visit?”

He instinctively turned to gaze at her, but she lowered her head, avoiding his gaze. He might just see through her, and that wouldn’t be good. Because of her past with Alpha Idris, she hated having him around, but how could she explain that to Alpha Denzel?

“Is that why you returned? I wanted to inform you this morning because I was very tired last night.”

“I saw his car parked at the garage and his warriors too.” He discreetly did not want Adira to know that Allessia was the one who informed him. Also, he didn’t want to directly ask about Allessia, wanting Adira to raise it on her own accord, but that did not happen.

Alpha Denzel was displeased by her sudden behavior of hiding things, but since he was not one to complain, it was overlooked, and none of them spoke anymore.

Reaching Valerie’s room, the door was pushed open, and she jolted awake. “Can’t you knock?” She asked in annoyance, thinking it was Adira, but when she heard the manly footsteps with the strong aura and Alpha scent, her heart dropped into her stomach, fearing the worst.
