Surrogate For Alpha Dom
Chapter 116
Ella
Hugo, Sinclair and I are all staring at the television with wide eyes and slack jaws,
unable to process the images flitting across the screen. It seems like every time we
manage to take a few steps forward, Lydia and the Prince find a way to send us
reeling back – and this is no exception.
“This doesn’t make any sense.” Hugo expresses, obviously overwhelmed. “Why would
he risk losing the pack’s sympathy by parading around another Woman so soon after
his wife’s death?”
“Trust me, Hugo – Damon isn’t the one calling the shots here. This is all Lydia.”
Sinclair states gruffly. “She’s going to force her way onto the throne one way or
another. Right now she’s playing the doting friend, but mark my words, by the time the
election ends she’ll be in his bed.”
“How bad is this?’ I ask, looking up at Sinclair’s handsome face, “Does she have
information that could hurt you?”
Sinclair Squeezes my shoulders, “She knows some secrets.” He relates, “but luckily
nothing I could imagine as a smoking gun. In fact most of what she knows would be
more harmful to the Prince things like my father’s attack, Things the public believes
were accidents but our private investigators proved malicious.” His mouth flattens into
a hard line. “The real danger is that she knows how we think, how we operate. Not to
mention that the Prince doesn’t have more than two brain cells to rub together, but
Lydia has plenty.”
“So what do we do?” I ask anxiously, my head replaying the news reel over and over
again. “My bed rest isn’t common knowledge, and they’re making it sound like my
absence from the public eye is suspicious. Do we tell everyone about my condition?
Or do we make an appearance?”
“I’m afraid making an appearance might play right into their hands. This could be
some sort of attempt to lure us out of hiding.” Hugo advises, looking very grim indeed.
In the distance I hear the front door open and close – a fact which comes as quite a
surprise, since my hearing has never been so sharp before.
Wheels roll over the door jam, and then Henry’s voice floats up toward us, “Good
Morning!”
“Henry!” I exclaim, both taken aback yet unsurprised we stayed in bed so long.
Sinclair’s father has been coming over almost every day since we agreed to be
invalids together, and he’s been an invaluable help, since I learned my true identity.
