Faith with Wolves
15. What's He Hiding?

Faith

I'm not sure who Caleb is going to meet but it didn't seem like a happy call. I could sense how irritated yet nervous my mate was. There was also something about the voice that sounded familiar like I had heard it before. Maybe someone who came to the royal palace or I overheard my parents talking too.

Even though I knew it was wrong I said a quick goodbye to Ruby and got into my truck to follow Caleb. He continued to drive out of town and into the woods. I stay a few cars back to not be seen. I really don't want to have to explain to my mate I'm practically stalking him after we just made up.

I still can't believe Caleb told me he loved me. I know he cares about me but I didn't think he felt that way about me. I never thought a werewolf would love a vampire. Yet he said it and I've never felt more special. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

After a fifteen-minute drive, Caleb pulls over to a clearing by a forest. He parks and walks right down a path into the woods. I park my truck behind a large bush hoping Caleb won't notice it's mine if he leaves before me. Maybe it will just look like any random black truck.

I spray my scent-masking perfume over my body then head into the woods. I climb a large tree then hop branch to branch heading towards Caleb's alluring scent. I spot him talking to another wolf. He smells like a rogue which confuses me more. Caleb hates rogues. I listen in on their conversation.

"What do you want? I'm busy." Caleb says irritated. He folds his arms across his chest and glares at the rogue.

"Don't get an attitude with me pup! I could crush you!' he threatens and I can sense how angry my mate is here. He's struggling to keep calm.

The rogue looks around the woods suspiciously. "He's onto us, well me. He knows I'm creating an army to go against him. We're going to have to attack sooner rather than later."

Caleb shifts foot to foot something I notice he does when he's nervous. "Look, Malachi. I can't do this anymore. I can't support you and this war."

War? Malachi? The only werewolf I know named Malachi was the former werewolf king. He was challenged by alpha Dexter for the title and lost he was banished and became a-

Oh my! Caleb is talking to Malachi. I've never seen him in person but I heard stories about him. He was a cruel controlling alpha. He would punish packs for the smallest things like not making enough money to send him or if they got attacked by rogues. He would call them weak and use his enforcers to attack the packs killing everyone and burning them down. He's dangerous.

Why is Caleb with him?

The sound of Malachi yelling gets my attention. He's in my mate's face growling at him. They both look ready to tear the other apart. I'm also trying to keep my cool from him threatening my mate.

Nobody hurts my wolf

"How dare you!' Malachi shouts. "I could have taken out your pack a long time ago and this is how you treat me!"

"Is that a threat?" Caleb snarls.

Smirking Malahi takes a step back and runs his hand through his long hair. "Just know if you're not with me then you're against me," he warns then turns around, shifts into his large black wolf, and runs away into the trees.

Caleb just stares into the tree line. I just want to jump down and comfort him but I can't. My mate's been keeping secrets from me. Malachi is trying to start a war and Caleb was a part of it. What else is he hiding from me?
