ALPHA ZANE:
I
got to the company and began to head inside. This was my second time here, but as I walked in, I recalled the first time I had come here. It was with Katherine, and then she was only four months pregnant.
I could see us together. The expression on Katherine’s face when she stepped into that door and when I did, I let out a smile. Everything still felt so much like yesterday, but now they were all gone.
“Mr Black?” A blonde–haired lady called my name as I stepped in, and I cocked my head towards her,
“Yes, that’s me.”
“Alright, please come with me while we wait for the CEO to arrive. She’ll be here in a couple of minutes if you don’t mind.”
I nodded my head, “Thank you.” Then I began to trail behind her. She was a slender lady with a firm ass and nice hips, but I looked away as we got to the elevator,
“Your first time here isn’t it?” She questioned me as we got into the elevator and the door shut,
“Not really.”
Then she cocked her head back at me, “You’ve been here? Oh wow, you must be a distinguished investor.” The elevator halted,
“Please come this way.”
We both walked till we got to the entrance of a room, and she brought out a card from her pocket,
“If you don’t mind, you could wait here for her. I’ll come to check up on you when it’s almost time.”
I walked in and took my seat on one of the silver seats around the crystal table.
“If you’d excuse me.” I heard before she walked out and shut the door. I remember this place too. Katherine and I came here months ago and I could still recall the expression on her face. Sadly, we were never able to meet the CEO for some reason and we had to leave,
I remember Katherine’s words,
“No way I’m giving up, Zane. You know how much I want this? You know how much I want to partner with this company so we can change the world. This is my dream, Zane, it’s all I ever wanted after my mother’s death.”

“Before our babies are born.”
My heart ached so much as I recalled all of this. We had plans…. Plans for our children. Plans to make the pack strong and better for their birth. Plans to make life easy for our babies but all of that was gone now. A tear had almost slid down my eyes as I recalled this, but I fought it back.
I would get Katherine back. I would go down on my knees and plead after finding out the truth, and I would never spare whoever had framed her no matter what,
“Mr Black, Mr Black?”
I fluttered my brows as I snapped out of my thoughts and cocked my head towards the lady from earlier,
“Yes…”
“Are you alright? You seem lost in thought.”
“I’m fine. Is anything wrong?”
She went silent for a second and I could see worry in her eyes as she walked closer to me,
“Ms Moore would not be coming anymore. Something urgent came up and so the meeting has been cancelled. I’m sorry about this.”

“Is she alright?”
“Yes Mr Black, she’s fine. She had something to look into so she informed me she wouldn’t be able to make it anymore.”
I heaved deeply. I had patiently waited for this day, but then once again, I wouldn’t be able to meet her.
“Would the meeting be shifted to any other day?”
Sadly, she shook her head in negation,
“Ms Moore didn’t say anything about that. She simply canceled the meeting.”
I rose to my feet,
“Could you disclose to me when she would be available? I could come to check up…”
“I’m sorry sir, I’m not allowed to disclose that to you or anybody in the company. I’m sorry about this.” She uttered and my countenance changed immediately, but I was quick to understand even though I badly wanted an answer from her,
“I’ll take my leave now, thank you.”
She stepped aside and I began to walk out of the office. As I shut the door, I held the doorknob and stared around for a second. I was damn angry… angry at the fact that I had so much hope for this and once again I wasn’t given the chance. This wasn’t the end yet. All I had to do now was force that meeting. If I had to make her come to me instead, then I would.
ALPHA LEO:
“Are they gone?” I asked Blake as I walked towards the small drawer in the room and opened it,
“Yes, Alpha, they are gone. Tanya insisted I don’t tag along and…”
“I know Blake. That’s like the Tanya that I know. She doesn’t like being treated as a kid.” I uttered as I picked up the packet of cigarettes and a lighter,
I turned around to face Blake who was standing close to the entrance of my room,
As I sat down on my bed, I groaned and picked out a stick from the packet,
“It’s best if Tanya leaves. She’s soft, and I don’t think she’ll be able to handle Tristan locked up in here. The last thing I would ever do is forgive her if she lets him out so it’s best to let her leave.”
“I understand, Alpha. I’ll see that she returns to Los Angeles tonight.”
I went silent for a few seconds as I lit up my cigarette and coffee in smokes. Katherine was right, I was doing this because I loved Tanya and I didn’t want to end up hating her.
I had never shown Tanya that I loved her because I believed it would make her disrespect or go against me… or even disrespect me.
As I puffed out the smoke, Aless suddenly crossed my mind.
“Blake, what about Aless?”
“Aless? Alpha Aless of the Dark Shadow pack?”
“Yes, Blake. He’s back and he needs a mate. He’s been childhood friends with Tanya for as long as I can remember and when Tanya finds a mate, she’ll leave the pack. At least he’s someone I can trust with her safety. He’ll help her forget about Tristan and then she’ll start a family of her own.”
Blake cleared his throat aloud, but I didn’t cock my head towards him,
I placed the tip of the cigar in my mouth and huffed in smoke,
“I need a way to convince Tanya. Aless is the right person, Blake. It’s simply no one than him.”
“Is that what she wants? Tanya’s a Lycan and without a true mate, will she be able to control her full powers during the blood moon?”
