C Chapter 52 KAIDEN STIRLING I avoided Safiya right from the moment we got to our quarters. I was convinced she was in a mission to frustrate me, push me over the edge and the cause me to hurt her. As much as I possibly could, I was not going to let her succeed with that. I sighed and ran my hand through my hair as I walked out of the Alpha quarters and into the main living area of the pack house. I headed towards the cafeteria because the burger and fries there were absolutely to die for and I was starving badly. As soon as I walked in, several eyes landed on …e. I was used to that, since I was the alpha. What I was not used to was the way everyone hurriedly looked away when I looked back at them. My wolf growled in my head and I completely ignored him because I was still furious with him for losing control and almost making me hit our wife. I sighed. I had not apologized to her for that, because I had been wary of her. I had even been avoiding her because I did not want her to provoke me or my wolf again. Maybe I would get her favorite snack and apologize to her, because no matter how much she annoyed me or frustrated me, she was still the Luna of the pack by marrying me and I had publicly disrespected her, she was still my wife and I had scared her. D**n it.

I left the cafeteria and it’s unusual silence and just before I left the room, I heard them all start to talk at once again. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
“I can’t believe he hit the Luna.” “He’s such a good Alpha, how is he an abuser?” “Imagine it being so bad that he does it in public…” “He must be an amazing pretender to have fooled us this whole time.” “He’s a man. You never know with men.” “Poor Luna, she’s pregnant!” “Their poor daughter. Oh no…” The words kept coming into my ears and my blood ran cold. This was bad. This was really bad. Suddenly, my appetite was gone. Far gone. *** *** *** “How did this happen? Why are these rumors going around?” | asked, pacing the width of my office with a worried frown on my face. Chapter 52 288 Mouchers I was furious and frustrated. “It seems people saw what happened outside of the pack house this morning and they blew it out of proportion,” he said and quickly corrected himself. Violence was not something anyone should say was being blown out of proportion. I had almost hit Safiya. Those were the exact words that people were supposed to say. “I mean, as the word of it spread, it started to change according to different accounts, you know. The way news spreads,” he corrected himself. And what he said made sense. A guard hurried into the room without knocking and I was too frustrated to be angry at him for interrupting a meeting with my beta. “What is the way forward?” I asked my beta, de ding to ignore the guard that had rushed into the room. Before my beta, Dane could respond, the guard spoke. “Alpha,” he said, his voice taking a pleading tone. “I do not mean to disturb you, but the pack werewolf council has summoned an urgent meeting and you are to be in attendance,” he said and for the second time that day, my blood ran
cold. I nodded and the guard left my sight. He was definitely made uncomfortable by my aura. My beta looked at me and he looked deep in thoughts. “What are we going to do now?” He asked the same question I had asked him seconds ago and I sighed. “I’ll handle them. You handle the rumors. They are not true. I’ll offer a public apology to my wife.” I told him and walked out, heading to the meeting room where the werewolf council which I was a member of always held its meetings.

I let out a sigh and rubbed my face with stress. “Whatever it is you have heard, it is not true,” I said, shaking my head. “How would you know what we have heard?” He asked again and I sighed, knowing he was grilling me because he was my father’s friend and they had trained me better than to hit women. “Some preposterous rumors are going around about me hitting the Luna,” I said taking a pause and allowing th to absorb what I had said. “I’ll admit that I did lose my temper and I almost hit her, but I would never. I stopped myself. I’m sorry. I am truly sorry. I will accept any punishment you give me and I will offer a public apology to the whole pack and go my Luna especially,” I said with a somber tone. Gorden was the one in charge of the council whenever the alpha could not take care of it and now was a time I could not take care of it. He looked at the other members of the council and they sent me out of the meeting room so they could decide the appropriate punishment for me. was called in ten minutes later. “You will bring the Luna to testify that this is the first and only time
you have attempted hitting her. Until that is done, we will not believe a word of what Chapter 208 Vouchers you have said.
