The Silent Alpha
Chapter 39: The Race Begins
***Wyatt (Scarlett Haven Gamma)***
"He is not to say a word to anyone.You understand me? Not a word,"
Alpha Sebastian snarls in my ear as he hands me the tablet with the California Pack Map.
"Keep him silent until he’s brought before me."
I know better than to question him, so I just nod my head and take the tablet.
In the hall, Caine and my son, Korbin, await my instructions.
"So where exactly does this Alpha live?" Korbin asks as I lead them down to the car.
"My sources tell me the Bay Area," I reply curtly, not looking forward to this wild goose chase.
Caine is silent as I pull out of the drive and head towards the airport, a feeling of dread settling in my stomach.I don’t know why Sara requested Caine to join me on my mission but I know it can’t be good.I'll just have to keep a close eye on him and make sure he doesn't get himself killed.
"So what's this Alpha like?"
Korbin asks, leaning back against his seat with his arms behind his head.
"Have you met him?"
"I have," I sigh tiredly, knowing Korbin will be asking a million questions throughout this drive.
"And?"
Korbin pries, suddenly sitting up straighter towards me, as if paying attention to what I have to say about his older brother ifonly you knew you've already met him...
"He's a man of little words," I reply carefully.
Neither of them need to know who Zane really is.
At least not yet, anyways.
"What’s the Alpha’s name-"
"Would you quit calling him Alpha?"
Caine snaps, finally fed up with Korbin’s incessant questions.
"I’m the Alpha!"
"Not yet you’re not,"
I retort, glaring at him through the rearview mirror.
"So I suggest you change that tone of yours if you want to remain on this mission."
"If he is such an Alpha, then why did Dad send him away? If he were a real Alpha, he would have never accepted to part with his pack.He wouldn’t hide away, he would face Ravenstone like a Man!"
"Well, unlike you, Alpha Toran actually does have an interest in your brother," I reply smuggly, the look of indignation on Caine’s face pleasing me.
"He’s valuable to him."
"What is that supposed to mean?" Caine sneers.
"Nothing," I shrug nonchalantly.
"Just that your brother is a Purebred Silver wolf… unlike you… and Alpha Toran is no i***t.He knows that a silver wolf like your brother is rare.Purebreds are hard to find, the last known ones being the Altamirano clan of México, a family line which disappeared years ago.Why waste his heir instead?"
"Who do you think you are to speak to me that way?" Caine snarls.
"Your superior," I reply calmly, his face contorting in anger.
"Listen very carefully Caine, because I’m only going to say this once.You might be the Alpha’s son and a silver wolf, but this is my mission.You were invited to join by your mother.As such, I amin charge and you will not question me on any decisions I make.You will not speak, you will not move, you will not do anything unless I tell you to.Do I make myself clear?"
He only grunts in response, looking out the window to avoid me.I sigh in frustration.
Caine is young and stupid.
The only place he will lead our pack to is to its doom.
Schilling silence fills the car but before long, we find ourselves in the airport searching for our terminal.I hate flying but there’s no way in hell I’m staying in a car with Korbin and Caine for 15 hours.I’d rather die.
"So what’s his gift?"
Korbin hisses as we find our seats by the wings of the plane, Caine upgrading only himself to first class like the prick he is.I only shrug in response.I did not witness Zane’s first shift, so I do not actually know what his gift is.
Traditionally, the first shift is a very important event for a werewolf.
Not only do you meet your other half, but you also get to communicate with your other pack members at the next full moon.
We call it a Night of Melodies ritual.
As an outcast, however, Zane’s first shift was anything but special.
"Sir are you sure-"
"Are you questioning my decisions again, Wyatt?" Sebastian snarls.
His voice deepens when I shake my head.
"Then take him to the cabin by the waterfall and leave him there for his shift.Bring him back next week."
"You intend to make him deal with his first shift alone, Alpha? "
Lask, bewildered by such a thought.
"But he is your-"
"Enough!" Sebastian roars.
