it did not get done. I’d finally headed in the direction of my father’s office with just five minutes to spare when Chelsea stepped out into the corridor and blocked my path, a look of anger on her face.
“Who was that in your car last night? I saw you bring Frankie home and then you ran back to your car, and I know there was someone in the passenger seat, I saw them. I asked Frankie but he was too pissed to make sense, just blabbered something about ‘an itch’ or something like that. So come on, tell me. Who was she?”
“Who said it was a she? Could have been a guy.”
“Yeah right.” She laughed bitterly. “I know it was a female and I'm going to find out who. She from another pack or something? Because I know none of our females would dare mess with my male.”
Her male? My father was so right. I should have ended this thing with her years ago.
I didn’t have time right now to deal with her. Looking down at my watch, I noticed that I was now five minutes late meeting my father.
“Chelsea, I have to go. I’ll talk to you later,” I said as I moved past her and down the hall as quickly as I could before she tried to stop me.
“No, we will talk now! Tell me who she is?” she screamed with rage.
My hands clenching into fists, knuckles whitening as I tried to calm my wolf. I was a dominant male, a future Alpha. She really shouldn’t be raising her voice at me like that. If I hadn’t been late I would have turned around and put her in her place, made her submit. But I was late, and the Alpha was pissed.
“You’re late,” he snapped before I even reached the door.
“Sorry, Alpha, I was held up.”
“What could have been more important than a meeting with your Alpha, your father?” Ryan demanded.
“It wasn’t more important, believe me. I just got held up.” Not liking my answer, my father sat back in his chair and waited, his calculating gaze never wavering. He wasn’t going to move on until I told him. “Chelsea cornered me on my way here. She wanted to know who I was with last night.”
“And so, my son, do I. Ryan found Frankie passed out in the hallway in the early hours. He knew you had been with him and found that you were not here. After checking the CCTV, we saw that after you had dropped Frankie home, you and an unknown female drove off. You didn’t reappear till hours later. Do you really think that is appropriate behaviour for the future Alpha of the pack when we are attending a Wiccan ritual tonight?”
“No, Alpha,” I said, keeping my eyes lowered to show my submission and respect. I was one of a few that was dominate enough to look my father in the eye, but when his wolf was pissed like he was now, to do so would be disrespectful.
“So tell me, who was she?”
There was no getting out of this. My father could smell a lie a mile away, but if I was careful, I might just get away with not telling them her name. “Just an old friend from school. Passed her in the car when we were on our way back and gave her a life home.”
“Then why drop Frankie off first?”
“I haven’t seen her in years. While we were talking I drove on autopilot. When we got close to her old house she realised my mistake and gave me the address of where she was staying now. So we dropped Frankie off and then I took her home.”
As he contemplated me for a moment, I thought that he hadn’t brought it, that he saw through the holes in my story, but then, nodding in acceptance, he moved on. “Alright, I buy that, but you are to be punished along with Frankie for allowing him to get into that state. Oh, and Zak will also join you in your punishment. Inform him of that when he decides to remove him dick from its latest home and crawls back here.”
“Yes, Alpha,” I said, fighting a smile at my father’s words.
After a little more talk about preparations for the ritual, I was dismissed. Heading to the kitchen, I stopped get something for the headache I knew Frankie would have, then
