Her possessive alpha novel Chapter 86

　　Stephanie 1

　　“Welcome to the Davie pack, Beta Cian and lady Kiara. I saw you both at the peace ball together that day and I must say that I’ve never seen such a finer couple.”

　　“Thank you, Alpha Daryl. My master received your message yesterday. He sent me here to with some men and to let you know that the dawn pack will be offering our aid, we’ll be setting up defenses on the pack ground.”

　　“I owe Alpha Lucas De’ Clan my life for this; we haven’t received an attack in years but even so our defenses still weren’t strong enough for them, I have been hearing of their attacks on our neighbors recently. We knew we were next and we prepared for them but still all our efforts weren’t enough; those good-for-nothing low lives seem to be multiplying by the minute.”

　　“I am sorry for all that you have been through in these times Alpha Daryl. You have my word that we will do everything in our power to ensure that the Davie pack is restored.”

　　“Thank you, Beta Cian, you were always such a loyal he-wolf. It pains me still till this day that you left us so, and now look at you.”

　　“Some things just had to be done Alpha Daryl, they were hard decisions but they just had to be made.”

　　“Yes, I admit that it was hard, losing everything at the time to those bloody rogues, your home, your family, even your mate. I wouldn’t have stayed behind too if it were me.”

　　“Thank you, Alpha Daryl. I think my partner and I tired now. It was a long drive from the dawn pack and we both need to rest.”

　　“Oh… goddess… my apologies…. I have had Keisha prepare your rooms for you. Dinner will be served in an hour.

　　“Keisha!!!!”

　　The servant ran into the Davie pack hall as soon as her name was called. She bowed before Alpha Daryl and then before the two guests.

　　Alpha Daryl nodded to the servant in response to her greeting and then turned back to address the guests.

　　“Keisha will be your servant for the short time you will be staying here. She will be at your service in case you will need anything, won’t you, Keisha?”

　　“Yes, I will, master,” the young lad responded with her eyes still facing the ground.

　　“Very well then, would you like to be served in your rooms or would you join us downstairs?”

　　Cian looked at Kiara, as if waiting for her to answer the question. When she didn’t respond, he gave the answer himself.

　　“I think we’d prefer to be served in our rooms.”

　　“No problem, the Davies can be very noisy so I perfectly understand if you’d prefer to eat in serenity. If that will be all, Keisha will escort you to your rooms now.”

　　The servant bowed again and left the hall for Cian and Kiara to follow behind her. She took them upstairs while the wolf guards followed behind, carrying their bags and when they reached the guest quarters, Keisha gave them each a room she’d prepared for them. Kiara didn’t like the idea of the both of them staying separately, she also didn’t like the idea of Cian’s room being so far away from hers but she didn’t object, neither did she let it show on her face.

　　After the guards had dropped her bags in her room and Keisha had left, she was now all alone. The servant had informed her that she would be bringing her dinner here in about an hour, it seemed like a long wait but then her main problem wasn’t even the fact that she was hungry, her problem was that she was so far away from Cian. Ever since his confession the two of them had spent so much time together, and now it was hard being away from him especially in such a strange place. She didn’t know why, but she suddenly felt the need to see him at that moment, to be close to him, even if it was just for a while.

　　She got up and went in the direction of his room, it took some time for her to locate it and when she finally did, she was about to open the door when she heard the sounds of a woman speaking with him inside. It wasn’t the voice of the servant, no, his door was closed and whatever discussion he seemed to be having with this woman, he seemed to have wanted it to be in private. She leaned in closer so she could get a better listening.

　　**********

　　Cian watched as Keisha dropped Kiara off in her room, he had wanted to object when Alpha Daryl informed them that they would be staying separately but he figured that there was no need, after all, he could always sneak into her room later so they could spend the night together. As soon as Keisha left him, he began unpacking his bags, he planned on taking a shower before taking dinner and then afterwards he would go to see Kiara. Ever since his confession there was hardly a time where the two of them weren’t together. Even when he’d gone on assignments, he’d made sure that he didn’t take too long before coming back to see her, and now that the two of them were separated, he was missing her already as he’d already gotten so used to her presence.

　　He turned his head in the direction of where the door to his room slowly creaked open, and then the door let in the person he’d dreaded to see ever since he’d heard of this assignment; the main reason he’d wanted Kiara to come along with him this time around, the reason he’d avoided any form of gathering with the Davies when he came, his mate, the one the moon goddess paired him to be with long ago, Stephanie.
