Alpha Dominic
Chapter 33

Still Dominic's POV

Isat on my seat in my office, waiting for my Beta and generals. I'm going to find out what Bethany has been hiding in her bas Yes, I'm going to invade her privacy, but it's a necessary evil, I just have to do it, it inevitable

I've been putting it off for some time now, I guess I'm too scared to find out the truth, I don't know what I'll do if my suspicions turn out to be true, for her sake, I just hope she isn't hiding anything too dangerous from me, it would break my heart if she betrays me, I would never be able to trust her again, I won't even have the courage to look into her eyes anymore. I'm just praying that her rebellion hasn't gone beyond redemption, I hope she hasn't teamed up with enemies, tha would only mean that she has lost all sense of reasoning and I'll be forced to punish her for betraying me and my people. Dwayne was the first to walk into my office, followed by Carl and Harriet. With the frown on their faces, you could tell that they would rather be locked in a room than be here with me.

Dwayne, I need you to get some guys, guys that you trust, instruct them to keep an eye on all the human girls, I don't want any surprises, make sure they are being treated right and try to see if they are having fun and have the omega's prepare everything they'll be needing. Ariana should attend to Carol and Bethany, I don't want anyone snooping around them until I've sorted out all these issues they are having. I've got some issues to attend to, I won't join in the celebrations today, that's why I'm putting you in charge. Make sure everything goes as planned, it's just a few days left, let's them have the best times of their lives. I'm just a mindlink away, let me know if anything is going wrongly” He nodded and left my office, leaving me with Carl and Harriet. I took a few minutes to brief them on Graciela's situation.

“Are you really going to help her get clean?”

“You make it sound like it's such a bad thing to help her out” I retorted, staring vividly at Harriet who looks so furious because of what I just said.

“Forgive me if I sound rude, my king, but that girl's issues do not concern us, we have bigger issues that we need to worry about. Don't forget that king Ashford is still searching for your weaknesses. What do you think he'll do if he finds out that you can't resist the urge to help anyone in need, you know how brutal he can be. He could decide to hurt more humans around you, drawing you out of your comfort zone, he will hurt the people around you to draw you out, he could use your weakness against you, Dom. You have to think this through, you can't deviate from the plans and go running to save a crackhead simply because she is Bethany's friend.” She scolded fiercely, looking me dead in the eyes as she speaks out her mind. I chuckled dryly, leaving a smirk on my face as I gazed down at her.

“Is that what you think about me, Harriet?

Do you think I am doing this for Bethany? Everything I've worked so hard to achieve, you think I'd throw it away for a girl tha hates my guts, for a girl that is trying to kill melt” I yelled at her, banging my fists on the table in anger, startling them both as they gazed at me in confusion. I ignored their eyes and focused on my laptop, searching for a photo that was taken about four years ago. When I found what I was searching for, I turned the laptop at them, showing them my true intentions, letting them see the real reason why I'm helping her out.

It was a picture of a stripper attending to a client. On close look, you can tell that the stripper is Graciela and her client is none other than Marco Lorenzo, the Mafia Lord. I know I said I was only helping her, and while that is not a lie, it is not the whole truth either. When I saw her on the first day of their arrival, I knew I had seen her somewhere before, I just couldn't remember where. I had totally forgotten about her familiar looks until I sat close to her today. As I spoke to her and asked her about Bethany, it dawned on me that she was the same girl that was spotted four years ago with the Mafia Lord.

I've been keeping tabs on him, trying to get him to help my cause, but he wasn't responding to me and he wasn't even attending to his duties anymore. Rumours had it that he suddenly gave up and abandoned his duties, but I never gave up and I never stopped searching for him and seeking for his help. One day, we got lucky and my boys spotted him at a club. From the reports I got that night, I was informed that they went home together that night and they actually spent the night together. Marco never uses a girl that way, that is why I was so surprised to hear that they weren't seeing each other anymore. I don't know what caused their separation, but what I do know is that there is no way he is going to turn his back on her when she is in danger, he is not that heartless.

It's true that Marco is the only one that can help her out of this situation, but I did this because of me too, I want to use her to get to Marco. I know. I could use her to get an audience with him, I urge Bethany to go and visit her friend and check on her, then I would go along with her, and voila! I would have an audience with Marco Lorenzo, the Mafia Lord. I only hope she agrees to my suggestion, I know he won't turn his back on her.

“So, you see, I always have a plan Harriet, I'm always one step ahead in everything. Think about that the next time you open your mouth to spout out thoughtless words. Don't ever speak to me in that tone, ever again. I was fighting this war long before you joined me, I believe I am in a better position to decide what is right and wrong in this war. Do not forget your place, Harriet. I may be lenient and merciful, but never cross the line, I wouldn't hesitate to punish you accordingly if you dare to question my decisions next time." I warned her sternly.

“Forgive me, my king, I thought you were swaying from our mission. It would never happen again, I promise”

“Good. Now go up to my room and get Bethany out, I need the room to myself, I want to see what she is hiding” I ordered her.

“Errmmm, you do know that it is wrong to go through a lady's stuff without her permission, it is called an invasion of privac and it is so annoying” She said defensively, eyeing me in anger.

“Harriet, are you questioning my decision, again?" I asked her with a smirk, watching the colour drain from her face as she shook her head in response.

“I hope so, Harriet. I really hope so. Now get the f**k out of here. I need to work, my company ain't gonna run itself. Be sure to tell me the moment you both leave the room and try to keep her out long enough, I don't want her back in that room unti Ifind what I'm searching for. You can keep her busy for four hours right?”

“What the hell am I going to be doing with her for four hours, are you planning to kill me with boredom?” she shrieked out i alarm.

“You could take her to the gym if you want. I heard she had some training and I want to know if she can defend herself. In fact, I'm handing her over to you, she would be your personal project, I want you to train her, Harriet. I need you to make a warrior out of her. She has the potential to be a great warrior and I need her to be able to defend herself. You can my personal gym upstairs, I don't want anyone finding out about her, at least not yet” I told them both.

“And where do you need me, they seem to have everything covered,” Carl comments after she left.

“You're coming with me Carl, I need you to help me search my room for anything she’s hiding, we need to hurry before she gets back to the room. But first, we need to go for a run and see what is happening around our borders. As we headed out tc the door, I mind linked Tyler and Ariel, my tech expert and personal assistant in the office. I ordered them to gather all the information we have on Marco Lorenzo, I need his current location before Graciela calls me with her decision. I'm quite certain that she would accept my offer, it's too good to refuse.

also asked Ariel to sit in for me at the board meeting tomorrow morning at one of my companies. Tyler and Ariel are the only members of my pack that stay outside this Castle. Their location is a secret to everyone, including my trusted generals and even my Beta. They both handle my company and other important investigations that need to be done in the big city. Presently, Ariel is overseeing the production of my special serum that is used against the lycans. Our last shipments were hijacked by that i***t, but our work is still in progress and everything is moving as it should. I have heard the rumours that king Ashford is also producing a serum, but I haven't gotten my hand on any and Tyler is still working hard to figure out its functions on us.

“Racing you to the border, Carl, catch me if you can.” I squeaked excitedly as I jumped down the balcony, shifting midair to my beast Scott, ripping my clothes in the process. My vision began to sharpen, as did my hearing and sense of smell. landed with a loud thud as Scott let out a very loud, ear-piercing howl that shook the entire trees that stood around us. Scott is a very massive beast. He stands at 22 to 26 inches approximately and he weighs almost 70 pounds. His fur is pitch black, just like every other powerful Alpha, but a lot more. Scott is bigger than your average Alpha and his aura is too powerful, stronger than even King Ashford’s. Some say it is because I have spilt the blood of many, but I know better than to believe their lies and rumours. My aura has always been this powerful, even before I turned against the Lycan king. Sometimes, I am forced to believe that I am the reason why king Ashford turned so bad. He must have sensed my aura all these years, he must know that I am destined for greatness, that is why he tried to kill me and eliminate our very existence. Through the mind link, I confirmed Brian's position then I took off immediately, running through the woods, dodging trees, jumping over fallen logs, scaring every animal I come across as they scurried into hiding.

Scott seems to be very happy that I let him out to play today. He chased after any poor little animal that he could find, having as much fun as he could get before I could transform back to my human form.

When we finally got to the border, I transform back to my human form as Brian handed me a basketball shorts because am completely n**e. Brian is my head, it was his idea to set up the mines around our boundaries and It turns out to be a great idea because our perimeters have never been breached, not even once.

“Where the f**k are you?" I asked Harriet through the link as we ran back to the packhouse. I had spent a good few minutes with Brian and the other guards, I've gone around the perimeter myself to make sure everything is okay. I did all these to stall and wait for Harriet's signal, but she isn't forthcoming. I don't know what could be causing the delay.

“Sorry, Dom, I got distracted by our chitchat. We're at the gym now, you can do in. Oh, and by the way, if Bethany, asks, be sure to let her know that you forced me to train her. She doesn't look too happy about it, but I got her to follow me anyway. And just so you know, 'm not happy about this plan of yours, it sucks” She complained once more, making me groan in annoyance. What am I going to do with this Harriet girl, she is as stubborn as Bethany. They are both alike and it makes me wonder, why the hell am I surrounded by stubborn women?
