Bad Love An Alpha’s Regret

AARON

I hate to have to break Leah out of the spell. Pull her from the warm glow of love we just shared, especially after spending precious time as a family, and seeing her get to be with our son for the first time.

But the rest of the world won’t wait.

I’m sure that as soon as the Council sorts out the mess of what happened with Tobin, Adam, and the end result of Leah becoming the Alpha of the Havelock pack, then the Council will be on our doorstep, demanding justice.

That’s why I sent James out last night to several local packs, discreetly feeling out who are my allies, and who is planning to stand against me. Tve also contacted the wolves within the Council who owe me favors, but so far, none of them have gotten back to me.

I’m trying not to think that’s a bad sign.

Part of me thinks I should simply go and hand myself over to the Council right this minute so I can protect Leah from the fallout

However, if I really thought doing that would be better in the long run for both Leah and Ethan, I would already be gone.

But the Council is known to be ruthless when upholding the laws to safeguard the packs and manage the integrity of our species

They aren’t likely to simply let Leah go without at least facing some kind of hearing, even if I do hand myself over in return for a promise to leave her out of things.
