The Mystical Attraction of Alpha

Chapter 220 – Adoption

3rd Person

‘You can’t be serious.” James stared at Roger in shock, not believing his own ears. “It’s just a possibility we have to consider.” The new Beta replied gently.” Trust me, no one wants it to be true.”

“Are you suggesting that I might have been responsible for bringing the wolves who attacked the Alpha’s convoy to this continent?” James clarified, wanting to know if the Alpha’s concerns about Damon hiding spies among the refugees was purely hypothetical, or based on something more.

“We don’t know anything for sure.” Roger replied carefully. “But you said yourself that it was only a matter of time before Damon’s forces found the meeting point on the coast. It’s gotten too big to remain hidden.”

“I did, but I was more concerned with increasing evacuations to try and save as many as we could before he brought the hammer down.” James answered, wondering if he was at fault somehow. He’d certainly never viewed the fleeing masses clamoring for a spot on his plane as a threat, he’d only ever wanted to help those in need.

Moreover, he thought it was dangerous to start viewing them as a security risk. But when he considered it, truly thought back on the hundreds of flights which all seemed to blur together, he couldn’t say whether or not he may have missed something – or someone. “Have you checked the registration lists at the camp?

“For what exactly?” Roger inquired, rubbing his jaw. “A spy is hardly likely to write ’hail Damon’ on his entry forms.”

“Well almost all the refugees are women and children, the only men who are fleeing have families to protect.” James explained, thinking out loud.” The rest are staying behind to join the resistance. I can’t recall any single men boarding my flights, but if there are any registered at the camp, they would be my prime suspects.”

“And if the spies are women?” Roger countered, arching a brow. “It’s not impossible, but when has Damon ever hired she-wolves as anything but sex workers?.” James shrugged, “Knowing him, he would laugh at the very idea of a woman spy.”
