Hiding the Alpha’s Baby (Layla and Alexander’s)

Chapter 21

ALEXANDER

"Report the progress. "I'lean back in my chair and look up at Levi.

He seems all sunshine today. It's the first time I have seen him having a hard time wiping a smile off his lips. Usually, he is more reserved and calm around me.

The mate magic and sex must be working better than he imagined. I suddenly feel envious of him.

We ambushed their hideout and saved 11 girls. He informs.

His smile drops. Intense disgust and hatred shine in his eyes. I sigh, rubbing my na

"Their condition? I ask the next question

"Diana is looking after them. They have gone through a lot of psychological trauma so she will do her best to give time to all of them." He sighs.

"Age range? "I glare at the desk placed between me and Levi.

"13 to 17, I think. Some might be younger. They haven't talked yet so we are not sure, Alpha. "Levi grimaces.

I drag my hand to my forehead to rub my temples. The fucker is continuing to drop low. Children are the fucking line no one should cross and he is bringing them in his sex ring. He is a sick ba s tard and those who are buying these girls for their twisted pleasure are the worst forms of evil. I will never tolerate this in my territory or any place around my territory or anywhere in this fucking world. Find their families, Levi. And make sure these girls get all the help they need. "I glance up at him.

They will. Like the rest of them. "He nods grimly

I thought this shit ended with the death of my parents and sister, but turns out, another motherfucker is here to take the place of the wicked t w at 1 got rid of years ago. No matter how many I kill, someone rises to take his or her spot and continues to kidnap little girls, and then push them into sex trafficking

Wolves heal faster. Everyone knows. So, choosing the werewolf girls is much more beneficial for this business. Those men treat them in the worst way possible, and those girls just heal. I shouldn't even call them men at this point. They are creatures-some beings that don't deserve to live.

I have vowed to find the last of them and rid this world of the filth. But this doesn't mean this mission comes without retaliation. My pack has been attacked many times due to this secret war no one else is aware of. Warriors have lost their lives, and we still haven't reached the puppet master who pulls all the strings.

I know his name. I have always known. But I have never managed to get to him.

Once I do, I will torture the fucker for years before burying him six feet underground.

After this ambush, there will be some attack from their side, Levi. Strengthen the defense line around the borders and make sure guards patrol the area inside the pack too. Install more cameras around the housing areas. Make sure nothing goes unseen, I issue the next order.

Levi nods. Yes, Alpha I will set everything up as you wish.

sigh and remain silent for a few muments. Sometimes, I don't feel like talking when I mall my pair or when i fa

Chapter 21

*I looked into her as you asked. Instead of leaving like he usually did at moments like these, Levi stays and speaks up.

My ears perk up. I move my gaze to his face which gives off a miserable vibe right now.

They didn't treat Layla like a member back in her pack. After her parents died, the Alpha's family took her in as a maid and treated her like trash. She never retaliated because she had nowhere to go. They even made her drop out of school. "He adds.

1 guessed this much already. When I met her for the first time, I saw the wounds on her. I knew the Alpha's family was abusing her so I wanted to bring her with me without causing a war over her which would have turned many werewolves against her.

I had done this before for the girls I wanted to save. I bought them in auctions where those sick bastards bid on them. Then, I usually moved them to a secure location to make sure they were safe before going after the fuckers. I thought I could use the same way with her, but I missed the important fact.

She was my mate and she was not a girl who knew she was about to be abused by inhumane creatures. I was trying to save her, but she took it the wrong way.

After all these years, I don't think I can blame her for this. I shouldn't have used that approach with her.

But, what is the point now?

She doesn't like me. I can't accept her.

What else?" I snap out of the daze and direct my gaze at Levi who is watching me.

"Nothing else. "He shrugs.

*What did this Josh do to her? My eyes burn as I think about the way she whimpered in her sleep last night..

"I don't know. Whatever happened in the packhouse, stayed inside. "He releases a shallow breath.

"Ask your mate. She must know about it. "I suggest.

Daphne is not ready to talk about Layla, Alpha. I don't think she ever will. She might be my mate but she is fiercely loyal to her best friend which is annoying, but okay. I understand. I will never share your secrets with her either. "A smile lights his lips at the mention of his marked girl. He is already whipped.

“Arrange an initiation ceremony for her. I will accept her in our pack, Levi." My voice softens

It's good to see him happy after so long. He has suffered throughout his life and now it's time for him to start a family and build his perfect world.

Amidst all this mess?" His brows rise to his hairline.

"It's about you. The pack can make time. "Inod.

He smiles at me. I try to smile, but find the gesture too tiring. I don't think I will smile for some days now, or maybe months.

My heart is silent. And so is my wolf. It feels empty inside.

A knock sounds on the door to my office. I glance at the door and inhale the scent of berries which is spreading around me. It's alluring and fruity-just like always.

She opens the door. Her head pokes inside, searching the room before her eyes land on me. As I stare at her, she blushes

The emptiness inside me tums

intense urge to settle her in my lap and inhale her scent until my lungs fill with it and

then fuck her until her moans fill, the rest of me.

Those are the wrong thoughts. But I can't seem to get rid of them.

"We need to talk. "She enters the office, revealing the baggy blue dress she is wearing.
