Kaia POV
"Shall we?" The Alpha places his hand out, gesturing for me to enter his home.
A level of uncertainty washes over me but I ignore it, right now I have no other choice.
Why do I feel as if I am entering the wicked wolf's den?
The doorway is wide, yet I still find myself brushing past him... surely he must feel the mate bond? But nothing, not even a sharp intake of breath.
I pause at the bottom of the stairwell, the dark wooden stair case setting the tone for this house, I hope not for the pack also.
can't be in another pack like before, unable to trust a soul.

But maybe that is my path now, mine and the baby's....just the two of us.
"My office is this way..." His voice echos as he now stands down a hallway, waiting for me to join him. It would seem he was impatient and didn't like to be kept waiting.
I glance behind, the further I walk into his den, the further I am away from a safe escape route.
I have
no choice, I will not go back, I remind myself as I follow him into his office.
"Alpha!" Beta Ezra enters the alpha's office just after we do. A black leather sofa aligns the back wall of the office, as his desk sits by a fire place. This place didn't ooze much warm.
It doesn't have a feminine touch, which tells me he lives alone. #
Ezra places an empty gold goblet on the desk with a silver dagger.
My heart quickens and I am unable to suppress the fear rising in my gut.
Did they plan to use that knife on me? Silver...silver will slice through me like butter.
"Calm yourself... The dagger is for me." The alpha reaches for the silver knife and, suddenly protective of the life growing inside of me, I take a step back. A flicker of his eyes to jet black inform me his wolf is aware of my backing away.
My heart is now straining in my chest as it continues to beat too fast which I know isn't missed by him. My heart feels as if it is too big for my chest, and not in a good way.
The alpha's eyes remain on me continuously, even the beta's. I feel trapped, my eyes flashing to the office door only for the sudden smell of blood to make them turn back on the alpha.
His hand is clenched around the silver dagger's sharp blade, not an ounce of pain registering to his face.
His eyes are locked on mine, even as his hand opens to show the blood gushing from his palm wound. I hold still, my wolf wanting to check the wound of our supposed new mate, whereas I am not so keen to show him warmth...not when it won't be reciprocated. Chapter cons
His hand now hovers over the goblet as drop after drop of his blood fills the golden cup. The smell of his blood mixed with his burnt oranges and dark chocolate scent creates an intoxicating perfume that tries to pull on my resolve. "This is t

is the test...."
I
I look from the alpha to the beta, none the wiser.
"Very few outsiders remain here, if you are to stay, then you must drink my blood to join the pack."
His words confuse me, I thought I made it clear I was looking to join his pack. How was drinking his blood a test?
"By drinking my blood, I will become your alpha. You must abide my rule."
"Yes, that is usually what an alpha expects..."
He looks at me as if I was misunderstanding his words?
"You will no longer be a.....rogue..." He quirks an eyebrow at me, little does he know I've not even been a rogue for 24 hours.
My hand picks up the goblet, determination keeping my hand steady...I want this...I need this.
As I place my lips onto the rim of the goblet, his eyes search mine for a last minute hesitation.
Wait..
What?
My wolf screams in my head.
"Than is the baby's father, how do we know this alpha won't use that against us. Use us and the child as a ransom against the Amber Desert pack?" "We don't" I respond in my mind.
ives off that c
"Is there a problem?" He annoyance at being kept waiting.
"I can't back out now...We won't stay long, once we find out where Father is we can leave...."
I've come along too far now, I won't go back.
I refuse to.
I tilt the goblet up, his warm thick blood entering my mouth. I swallow it instantly.
"Repeat
t after me..." Ezra Immediately whispers into my ear.
"I offer my allegiance to the Black Phantom pack and its Alpha, Hector Varon."
I let the blood settle in my stomach, the lingering metallic taste sitting on my tongue.
"I offer my allegiance to the Black Phantom pack...."
I look up at the alpha before me, so his name was Hector.
..and its Alpha, Hector Varon."
...a
As soon as my lips utter his last name I feel the powerful break of the Amber Desert pack bond. A vacuum type suction trying to drag me back towards it. It's so intense, my legs start to give way.
He moves quick, catching me in his arms...my body fighting against the pack my unborn child is the heir of and the new pack that I have given my oath of loyalty to. Vomit starts to threaten to rise at the back of my throat from the pain of being stripped of the pack link I was never made Luna of.
I feel of the Dark Phantom pack bond now replace the cold pack link of the Amber Desert pack.
Once the pain and sickness reduces I am able to support my own legs more and Alpha Hector already seems keen to move away from me.
Tingles had been erupting on my arms the entire time he was holding me, and like before I could curse the moon goddess for making me feel them.
"Thank you." I mutter quietly as I straighten out my clothing, before looking back up at him to see if I had past his test.
A smile forms on his face as I feel the new possibilities of his pack bond running through my veins.
This was it, my new chance.
"Welcome Kaia."
