The Alpha's Mate Is A Spy

*DEREK's POV*

In the far area behind the arena, I was busy inspecting the competitors that came in. Carefully, I observed any movements that may look suspicious. And so far, none of them have surfaced yet.

It was just last night that an assassin tried to kill me again, but this time- she was my mate. It was that fact that made everything complicated. Even when they searched for her until dawn, she just completely disappeared.

I closed my eyes in frustration. I can still remember how vague the connection felt through my bones.

It's more potent than I thought.

"Alpha," Easton calls out.

"Easton, did you get enough information?"

"You mean?"

"Venus, the competitor."

"Yes, Alpha. From what we gathered, Venus is indeed one of the SunDale's wolves. Her original profile coincides with what she wrote in the registration form. Though she is the right henchman on Alpha Shaka, she's strangely absent in every important gathering. We also tried asking some SunDale wolves, but they didn't know much about her, other than being the adopted daughter of the Alpha."

My eyebrow furrowed. It's the fact that she doesn't have enough information that makes her suspicious. She has a rare talent, so I can't get why I've never heard of her before. Although female warriors are ordinary, her technique and skills can level an alpha's raw power.

She's the first she-wolf to display such monstrous strength.

"What do you think? Do you think she came here to join the ranks?" I asked.

"Hmm, I still can't tell. It's too early to say that she's a spy. Her profile checks out, and her pack record proves her identity."

"I doubt that."

We can't trust SunDale Pack. However, it's a famous pack for being a neutral community. People always wondered why the best warriors from that pack started to disappear after some time. Even the previous alphas disappear in the middle of their succession.

The pack is just way too suspicious to trust. Maybe that's why they never got involved in pack wars.

Speaking of the devil.

I took a shower and changed just like he wanted. I took some time in the tent to practice limiting my recent ability to weaken men. Though it was hard to comprehend at first, I realized that power was something I could control. I would have to restrain my inner mana from
