Fate's Dark Side Chapter 505
"You need to calm down, Alpha Timothy," I said, and he nodded and looked at me eagerly.
"I can't mate with your daughter to protect your pack. I can't. I am seeing someone, and that would be wrong of me. Besides, I am sure Mirabel has plans for her future, and being mated to me isn't one of them," I said, and the stupid girl shook her head.
I wondered what was special about me that made most of these women crazy. Whatever it was wasn't enough to make Amanda faithful or tell Tamia to leave Sylvester for me.
"I need your help, and that is the only way I can get it," Alpha Timothy said, and I decided I would speak to Alexie. I was trying to put off talking to him, but I decided I would do it for Timothy's sake. Mating with his daughter was extreme, and I knew the old man would not survive a challenge.
"I will speak to him," I told the old man, and the hope in his eyes drained away.
"That man has an insidious agenda in the east. He will be hard to reason with." He said, and I wondered why he would say something like that.
"Why are you saying that?" I asked the old man.
"He took over Hill Valley recently, but Alpha Blanch kept his money, right?" Alpha Timothy said, and I looked at Max, who nodded.
"Some of it. I lost what I had in the pack accounts," Max clarified, and Timothy nodded.
"Great, but still, the money isn't much because I remembered you having financial problems, hence why some building projects were halted," Timothy reminded Max, and he nodded. It was a general problem in the east.
"Four days ago, Alexie revived the building projects, mainly military-related projects. When I saw this, I asked him, and he said Hill Valley's Military structures were weak, and he was trying to upgrade them," He said, and Max nodded.
"Yes, that is true; the military funding for my pack had been low," Max agreed.
"I think he is trying to acquire my pack and resources for expansion bases. I also believe he is getting external funding because it is weird that he can come up with the capital on short notice. If he had all that money, he could have bought a massive land, registered his new pack, and started one independently instead of taking over Hill Valley.
I know I am blabbering right now, but I believe that man is up to something," the old man said and looked at me.
"I do not know what is happening, but I need you to help me secure my land. Since Alpha Max said the man cheated, I cannot ask you to fight him because that would cost you your position as head alpha and your pack if you lose. All I am asking is that, at the least, you claim you are mated to Mirabel and own the pack so he can keep off. You do not have to mate with her. I am sure you can create a room for that Alpha. It is your duty as head alpha to protect us. Please. She will be with you for a month, and you can send her back. By then, it will be like it didn't work out, but you still own the pack. At least do this to buy me time while I investigate the bastard." The old man said, and I did not want what he was offering because I did not want the news to get to Amelia about anything.
She would think I deliberately left her in the north for this. I wasn't going to hurt her the way I hurt Tamia.
"No," I told Alpha Timothy. "I am seeing someone, and I do not want her to feel hurt or betrayed," I said, and he nodded.
"I will tell her of the plan. You can tell her of the plan. I am sure she would understand, Alpha. I am desperate. He will come to my pack in the morning." The old man said, and I shook my head.
"What if I wasn't around? I was supposed to be in the north today; I just returned for personal reasons," I explained, and he bowed his head.
"Please, Leo. I need your help." He said, and I knew he was tired of everything and just wanted to save his pack at all costs. I linked Casper to get Alexie's phone number so I could speak to him.
