Hiding His Baby: The Alpha's Rejected Mate

Chapter 98: The responsibilities 

FIVE DAYS LATER 

"How’s Dominic?"

Athena jumped at the sudden voice and the file which she was reading fell from her hands.

She turned around and found the group standing there while looking at her in amusement.She quickly picked up the file before walking toward the table.

"Well, hello, Nathan and everyone.I didn’t realise when you came." She said with a small chuckle as she put the file down and leaned on the table.

Everyone else entered the room and got settled on the couches.

They were currently inside the office room of Dominic in his mansion But the only difference is that he wasn’t present in the room.

He wasn’t there to sit on his chair like a king.

Even if the chair misses him, she could say that.

Even though staying in this room was suffocating, it was soothing in a way as well.He spent most of his time here.His scent lingered here like a lazy season.

She loved to keep herself lost here.

May that be in work or in his memory.

"We could say so." Justin said with a chuckle before eyeing at the file on the table which she just put there.

"You are still busy in that file?" He asked with a raised eyebrow.

Athena was handling the paper works on behalf of Dominic from the past few days.

She didn’t want to make any mistakes as these things are very crucial and everyone put a lot of trust in her because of her name.

Goddess of wisdom.

While she was handling the paper work, they all divided the work.

Nathan was helping her in doing the paperwork and handling the work with other packs.

Justin was handling the border and training while the girls were handling the pack together.

They all are doing great group work even though almost failing in every step.

But stumbling back on their feets with the support of each other.

Those are the moments when they miss Dominic more than ever.

If it was him, he would have handled those with a blink of his eyes.

These situations wouldn’t have occurred in the first place.

"I finished it a while ago.I was just revising to see if I missed something."

Athena said with a small smile while taking the glass filled with water from the table and drank from there.She was thirsty for a long time but she was so engrossed in the file that she didn’t mind drinking.

"So, what do you think?" Nathan asked while getting up from the chair and walking toward the table.

He picked up the file and started going through it.

"I have marked some clauses with red marks which I think we should improvise and even added my suggestion in a few places.You can check them and discuss with me again if you want.Other than that, the deal is good I guess."

Athena said in a serious tone, while going through every clause in her mind once again to see if she missed something or not.This file was a contract file from the neighbouring pack.

The pack was relatively smaller than normal packs and very small in comparison to their pack.

But the Pack’s speciality is that they have very strong warriors.

They recently faced a crisis and asked for their help.

So, in the exchange of helping them, they decided to ask for their help with their warriors in future if there is any situation which needs them.

That was a good deal.

"Look at you, already handling things like a great leader.You are undoubtedly going to be a great Luna but if you were an alpha’s daughter, you would have been a great alpha lady." Patricia said with a chuckle, making everyone nod at her in agreement.

But the look on her face fell immediately after hearing her and she looked at her with a frown.Nathan noticed the look on her face.

"What’s wrong, Athena? Why do you look… worried suddenly?" He asked and that’s when everyone noticed the oddness as well.

"Alpha lady.From that I remembered something…"

Athena mumbled out with a frown on her face as she looked at them.

"What is it?" Suzanne asked in a worried tone.

"The man who attacked Dominic."Athena started speaking but before she could complete her sentence, Nathan snatched it.

"What about him?" He asked in a furious tone.

"He called me Alpha lady, for some reason." Athena said, sounding very unsure herself as she had a look of confusion on her face.
