Chapter 140

Chapter 140: Ayla “Yes, well,” Harden said, “as happy as I am that you two have found each other, this whole situation does pose another issue.”

I looked back at Alpha Harden. “How so?”

“I don’t know if he intended the outcome, but when Kingston brought you to the Alpha’s Gathering, I’m sure you noticed the amount of attention you attracted, my dear girl,” Harden told me. “The former Alpha Conner is an example.

”

“Kingston admitted to wanting to get the Waar P*k’s attention with that,” I said.

“What?” Theo hissed beside me.

“He’s been hunting them,” I explained, hoping Theo wouldn’t let it go for now.

“We are aware of Alpha Kingston’s hobby,” Alpha Cooper said. “It’s both helped and hurt some of our operations lately. But that’s not what Harden is concerned with.”

I looked back at them.

“There has been some... unrest since the Gathering,” Harden stated. “Any of the unmated Alphas you met have developed an infatuation with you. Most are minor fixations. No more than reaching out with requests to see you again or to find out where you are. But some have been more intense. Alpha Conner, for one. His obsession hit fast. Even Harry’s behavior supports our fears.

If he had Alpha blood, it would explain his obsession and downward m**tal spiral.”

“Power is one hell of a drug,” Randy said with a shrug.

“That’s just ridiculous,” I insisted.

“So you didn’t see a change in Kingston over your time together?” Cooper asked. “If meeting Theo isn’t what split you up, what did?”

“He.....” I huffed. “He was having me followed. He became very controlling and overprotective.”

“And another Alpha nearly rejected his fated mate and started a war just because he saw you,” Harden said. “Again, I don’t know if Kingston knew that would happen or if he had a clear enough head to care at that point, but you have an effect on all Alphas.

That needs to be addressed.”

“What do we have to do?” Theo asked with determination. “I’m not any happier about any of this than you are. I would prefer not to have to fight off every Alpha that lays eyes on my mate.”

“Unfortunately,” Randy said, “we don’t know for sure. Remember, this is all conjecture at best.”

“But my suggestion,” Cooper interrupted, “would be to mark each other. Soon. The sooner, the better.”

“Our mating ceremony was supposed to be this weekend,” Theo informed them. “We were planning to postpone it but...”

“Don’t,” Harden said. “It doesn’t have to be a public ceremony. It may be better that it isn’t. Either way, do it soon.’

”

“I won’t argue,” Theo insisted, squeezing my thigh.

“There were a few gifted wolves in the Dominis family,” Harden said. “A Luna being able to command other Alphas is unique, but I suppose it could be an extension of those gifts.

“It’s about time, too,” Mina mumbled “Mina,” Briggs sighed.

Cooper and Harden burst out laughing, and Randy just grinned and shook his head.

“Young lady, I can assure you, my Luna has never had any trouble with being obeyed despite lacking the ability to command,”

Harden assured.

“Any Luna worth their salt has no problem holding their own,” Cooper expressed.

“Still...” Mina stated strongly.

“What does any of this mean for Mina or my sister?” I asked, getting ust back on topic.

“They are an interest to the Waar P*k as far as being Onyxcrown blood,” Randy said. “However, I don’t think they know about Mina. I wasn’t even able to make the connection. So, she should be safe where she is. Kylee is a vulnerability.”

“She has opted to stay here in Blue Fang,” I said. “If Alpha Harden is still willing to house them.”

“Thank you,” I said. “Do we know if there is any chance the Waar P*k would just leave us be? I do not intend to create any new kingdom or even rebuild the Onyxcrown Pack. I’m a Greytooth. I just want to be the best Luna I can for them. That feels like more than enough.”

“Same,” Theo expressed. “My people are all I need. I prefer not to have a war brought to their doorstep.”

“We don’t want that either,” Cooper said. “That’s what we’re hoping to prevent. But the Waar P*k aren’t known for listening to reason. Besides, it’s most likely they’re coming after you for the power you already have, not to stop you from gaining more.”

“Ha,” Randy burst. “That would be an understatement. Most of the ranking members I’ve discovered are wealthy elitists already.

Truth be told, I’m sure there are some reigning Alphas among their ranks. I’ll be working on getting more identities in the coming weeks.”

“You won’t be helping us with what we found at the Onyxcrown packhouse?” I asked.

Randy gave me a gentle smile. “If you need me, I’ll be there. But my skills are better utilized in the field.”

“You should reach out to Kingston then,” I said. “He said something about knowing who one of the leaders is. Someone named Grogan.”

Randy perked up. “I think I will do just that.”

“What about Harry working for the Waar P*k?” Theo asked. “We’re pretty sure we have some of his research. But if what we’ve seen so far any indication of the resources he provided them with, there’s no is 66.75%

“That’s what we’re hoping you guys can handle,” Cooper said. “You have everything we pulled from Harry’s hideout, and you have access to all his properties within your territory. You also know him better than any of us. Randy is going to be watching out for any new tech he may come across. If he finds anything, he’ll bring it to you.”
