Chapter 143 Dierdra's POV Avery's footfalls echoed down the corridor, moving away from us. Zara turned back from her pursuit with a growl that was truly terrifying. "What do we do now?" I asked, panicking, "If she tells Gideon, we're so fucked." "From what you've been telling me, Gideon won't believe her even if she does," Zara shrugged, "but it's not going to come to that." She beckoned for me to follow her up a set of stairs and down a carpeted hallways. "You all arrived later than most of the other Alphas," Zara explained as she strode ahead of me, "but these are the pack quarters.

Each pack has a suite of rooms, and they tend to be geographically grouped, so Silvermoon and Nightwolf are in close proximity." She stopped outside of a set of doors, "These are ours, and those are yours.

"How does this solve our problem?" I asked, following Zara out of the Nightwolf quarters and across the hall into Silvermoon's rooms. She beckoned for me to follow her into her private bedroom, where she rummaged through her suitcase and pulled out a folded paper packet. "Inside of this paper there is a powder," Zara explained, pressing it into my hand, "Add it to Avery's drink." "What does it do?" Zara shrugged casually, "It won't harm her, it's not poison, but it will effect her decision-making, and lower her inhibitions.

She will be very susceptible to suggestion, and with this many randy Alpha's around, it won't be long before someone makes and advance. When they do, she will be powerless to resist and will go along with whatever they suggest." Inodded, "I don't think she'll drink anything I give her," I pointed out. ---- "Get another Alpha to give her the drink," Zara suggested, "Once she goes with one of them, we'll barge in and catch her in a compromising situation in the morning.

shamed Luna, she will lose all credibility." I was both impressed by the plan, and terrified by this insight into Zara's mind. Ever since she had recommended that I impersonate Gideon's true mate, she had been the one calling the shots, but I was learning. "Once you see her drink it, let me know, and ll have her followed to see whose bed she ends up in," Zara explained, "then you and I spend the rest of

Gideon all to myself. I returned to the ballroom, observing that Avery had retreated to one of the couches that was hidden in a dark alcove. She looked upset. Good. ---- I didn't see Gideon, which was just as good. I needed

one of the pair..." the red-headed man trailed off, turning his head to look to where Avery ---- sat, "how extraordinary." I watched his eyes scan the crowd, looking for Gideon no doubt. I had seen how he'd run him off earlier, which was so annoying. Why did Gideon persist in keeping an eye on Avery, anyways? He had assured me that he didn't have feelings for her, but still it seemed like he was always looking

I pouted, " I'm sure she'd love your company." "Would she now, I got the impression..." the Alpha trailed off then shook his head, taking the cup from me, "I thought she was taken."
