The Silent Alpha

 ***Zane*** 

A gust of wind carries a familiar scent as I walk back to the house, the hairs on the back of my neck standing on end.

Grayson growls loudly when I finally recognize the scent and I turn on my heel in time to see the same French Alpha who touched Kota last week now threatening my mate.

"Looks like someone needs to teach this b***h some manners," he snickers, his large build towering over my small mate and our pup.

"I'll gladly volunteer."

The scene is enough to send Grayson into a frenzy, my wolf taking over and shoving me back to watch him carry out his punishment.He shifts mid-run, rushing past our mate and pouncing on the stupid Alpha.

The Alpha is taken by surprise as Grayson pins him to the ground but quickly composes himself, wrapping his arms around my neck.

Grayson retaliates by dropping his weight on him and rolling, both of us wrestling each other around while Talia picks up Kota and steps away to safety.

I manage to pin the Alpha to the ground again, Grayson displaying his canines and snapping his jaws at him.

Kota's whimpers remind me that a child is watching and I reign in Grayson's anger, not wanting to traumatize our pup any further.

Annoyed, Grayson snarls menacingly at the Alpha and The Alpha scrambles to his feet, a deadly glare in his eyes.

"You again," He mutters, Grayson snarling in response and taking a protective stance in front of Kota and Talia.

"Step aside. My problem is with the b***h behind you, not you."

A wicked smirk curls on Grayson's lips as an idea pops into his head.

Grayson...

No....

I warn him but he's already made up his mind, dropping our walls and building a telepathic connection between us and the Alpha.

"Unless you want me to rip out your tongue, you should watch what you say around my mate and our pup ." Grayson snarls.

He glances over at Talia, his eyes scanning her up and down before he looks over at us again and snickers.

"She's not much to look at-"

"KNEEL ,"

Grayson commands, a black film glazing over the Alpha's eyes as he obeys Grayson's order.

The Alpha wordlessly kneels before me, sticking out his neck in surrender.

Grayson...

Before I can say anything else, Grayson turns to his side and lifts his leg, a stream of urine showering over the Alpha's head.

A shocked gasp escapes from Talia, little Kota giggling behind her.

Oh Dear Moon Goddess ,I groan, Grayson giving his leg a little unbelievable! 

"Who's the b***h now 2?"

Grayson sneers, kicking the Alpha in the chest with his hind paw.

"NOW SIT and WAIT."

Grayson turns to face our shocked mate, nuzzling his head against her chest.

At first, Talia stares blankly at us but when Kota begins to stroke my fur, she finally snaps out of her trance and buries her head in my neck.

"Thank you," she murmurs, her fingers gripping my fur.

We hear footsteps approaching, Queen Aurora and her Gamma walking towards us.

Gamma Evan immediately bursts into laughter upon seeing the urine drenched Alpha but Aurora looks anything but amused.She swallows back her words, however, and sighs tiredly as she forms a connection.

"Assume there is a good reason for what you've done to Benoit," She says, her voice a bit strained as she nods towards the livid Alpha.

"He threatened my mate, "Grayson snaps."

And since your guards failed to do their job and patrol the area, I had to take matters into my own hands!"

"Not that I owe you any explanations, but ! gave Benoit permission to patrol River Moon grounds "

Aurora hisses, her fists clenched tightly at her sides.
