The Alpha and The Vigilante novel Chapter 81

The Alpha of Iron Claw and I discussed an arrangement in which I would send some pack warriors over in return for some of his land, and I agreed to have my Gamma bring over the pack warriors in the morning.

Later that night, I heard a knock on my guest room door in the Pack House.

It was the woman from the forrest.

I'll spare you the details, but we ended up copulating."

My nose wrinkled in disgust. What the hell did this have to do with me?

Alpha Wilson ignored my look, too lost in his memories. "The next morning, my Gamma arrived with the pack warriors that would be venturing into the woods to eliminate the rogue threat. The woman from the forrest and I emerged from the guest room and went to greet them outside.

Instantly, my Gamma's eyes turned towards the woman. Her eyes widened in shock. 'Mine!' He growled at her, and immediately claimed her. He was too overwhelmed from the mate connection and his natural instinct to mark her to pay attention to her scent. More specifically, the fact that my scent was mixed with her scent slightly due to our actions from the previous night.

She never told the Gamma about our night together, and because I ended up meeting Amelia in Iron Claw during our stay there, I never spoke about it either. Amelia would have been incredibly hurt if she had known that I had sex with the Alpha-blooded woman.

So we went on with our lives, and we both fell in love with our respective mates. I was elated. Amelia was pregnant with my pup. Sebastian. Future heir to Red Crescent.

Everything was perfect until one night, when the woman from the forrest mindlinked me asking to meet me in the woods. I was worried by her nervous tone, but I met her nonetheless.

I saw her standing in the forrest, her hands placed over her stomach protectively. Even without her stance, I could tell that she was pregnant, as I could hear the faint heartbeat of the unborn fetus. She was further along than Amelia.

'It's yours' she whispered, and my whole world crumbled. I panicked. I told her that Amelia could never know, and she agreed. She didn't want to upset her mate either. We agreed to pretend that the pup was hers and the Gamma's.

One day, an elder approached me. He figured out that you were my offspring, as he didn't believe that a 13 year old girl could be so strong if she was only born from Gamma blood. I told him the truth, since he was a trusted figure I had known since I was a pup.

He told me that Sebastian would never be able to become the Alpha of Red Crescent, since he was not the rightful heir. The Alpha title could only be passed on to my firstborn. The Alpha's firstborn is only a guaranteed to be a male when they have it with their True Mate.

I told the elder that I would just kill you so I could pass down the position to Sebastian, since he would be next in line.

He warned me that doing that would surely make the Moon Goddess forsake me and banish me

to Hell in the afterlife, since killing your offspring is one of the worst offenses to her.
