Two times rejected Luna, the desire of all Alphas - Chapter 169

Chapter 169: Chapter 169 – Not Going
Fear shot through Alpha Tristan at the question, and without turning around, he replied, “I have no idea.”

Alpha Denzel could smell the lies in the air. “I can force the truth out of you, you know?” Threat laced his voice as he instructed his beta, “Alessia, tell Burke to prepare the torture room.”

Alpha Tristan found himself courting death. Turning around, he spoke politely, “You don’t have to. Ashley attacked Charlotte recently and even stabbed me. She revealed that your father was still alive but not in good health.”

Valerie jumped to her feet. “Dad is alive?” She was about to get close to Tristan when Alpha Denzel pulled her back.

“That makes sense.” He was glad that Valerie had hope in seeing her father, but it was also clear why his men could not locate any corpse. Can’t find the dead among the living.

“Why did you lie earlier?” His expression turned cold once more. Alpha Tristan stammered a little.

“Ashley did not want her to worry about it. She promised to nurse their father back to life but refused to disclose his location,” Tristan said truthfully, careful not to anger Alpha Denzel.

Valerie was glad she had not killed Tristan like Alpha Denzel said. If she had, how would she have gotten this information? She also knew it was true because of the picture Alpha Denzel showed her about Ashley making an appearance at the Yellowstone pack.

“Leave now,” Alpha Denzel said as he turned to Valerie. “Don’t worry. Since he’s alive, my men would find him and your sister. Do you want to take over the pack?” If she so wanted, he was willing to let her go.

His love grew stronger each day, and all that mattered was for her to be happy. Valerie did not want to make a rushed decision. Somebody tried to murder her father, and she had to be sure she was not targeted as well.

“No. I want to see my father first. I have a feeling that Scarlet might have a hand in his death. If not, why would Ashley keep his whereabouts from her?”

Alpha Denzel nodded his head. Her suspicion was believable. “I get it too. You want the culprit to pay. Look, if you want to stay behind, I will understand.” From all that had happened, it was clear that her mood was destroyed.

If she wanted to rest, then he could just go with Alessia and return to go on the trip with Valerie. Somehow, Valerie did not want to be away from him. “I want to be with you. I really do,” she said honestly.

Alpha Denzel believed in miracles, but at this point, it was too unbelievable. He kissed her on the lips to ensure that she was indeed real. Alessia was happy for them but could not help desiring her mate.

“Denzel, stop making me eager to find my mate. Get a room, for goodness’ sake.” Alessia ran upstairs. Both Alpha Denzel and Valerie chuckled.

On the way to the Litha Moon pack, Alpha Denzel called Alpha Idris and Luna Fernanda to announce their coming, letting them know that he wanted to stay at the cottage with Valerie.

Upon reaching there, they were met by both Alpha Idris and Luna Fernanda. When the cousins hugged, Luna Fernanda was excited and hugged Valerie. “I’m glad he brought you.”

“I’m glad to meet you,” Valerie responded with a smile, hugging her back. Luna Fernanda’s presence caused her to miss her mother dearly.

Alpha Idris escorted them to the cottage with Luna Fernanda and was shocked. “Mom, when did you intend to tell me about this?” It was the first time he was seeing that a place like that existed in the pack he grew up in.

“I was thinking about when you put on good behavior. I think now is the time.”

Valerie was all smiles. If she had not made changes at the cottage, then it would have felt as though she was still at the Yellowstone pack. No wonder Alpha Denzel kept that place sacred. There must be a connection to Luna Fernanda.

“Alpha Denzel, can I take your permission to go visit Alessia?” Alpha Idris suddenly asked. Alpha Denzel was curious and asked, “Why is that?”

Alpha Idris shrugged and explained, “I miss her, and I regret not taking advantage of the time we had together. I never knew she was my cousin.”

Alpha Denzel patted him on the back. This was a wonderful reunion. “It’s alright. You can go visit whenever you like, but I am also here for something important. I’m here for Adira.”

Both Luna Fernanda and Alpha Idris were shocked. Valerie had also forgotten to probe further when he mentioned it and was equally curious. Alpha Idris said, “I don’t get it.”

“Troy wants her but hasn’t got the time to come over. I hope you will attend his coronation,” Alpha Denzel explained, but Alpha Idris had a pitiful look.

“Sure, I will, but I don’t think Adira would want to go.”

Alpha Denzel already knew about that but did not know about the seriousness of the matter. “That is the reason I came to get her.”

“I don’t think she’d even want to see you. She’s kept to herself ever since she saw the videos of the confessions and what you did to Conrad,” Alpha Idris explained further, but Alpha Denzel insisted.

“I want to see her.”

“Let’s eat first,” Luna Fernanda said. Nobody refused. When they were done, they went to the pack house, and since Adira would not come out, Alpha Denzel forced her door open.

“Alpha Denzel,” Adira whispered. Then she saw the woman beside him and lowered her head. “Luna Valerie.” This was the first time she addressed Valerie as Luna on her own accord.

“I came to get you for Troy,” Alpha Denzel said directly, exercising his Alpha authority.

Adira stared absentmindedly at him. Then she stood up and walked towards them. When she bypassed Alpha Denzel, they thought she did not want to speak inside the room and followed her out. The moment she reached the door, she let out,

“I’m not going.”

Instantly, she dashed into the woods. Instinctively, Alpha Denzel was about to chase after her when Valerie spoke up. “Let me take care of it.” She ran in the direction Adira went.
