Through The Eyes Of My Alpha

Through the eyes of my alpha Chapter 40

RILEY Beta Dominic and I were out for the whole day and did what we needed to do in the western part of the territory.There was construction ongoing for a new building that would serve as a commercial center and have a big library within it.The project went on hold during my three months of absence because my Beta couldn’t handle everything while taking care of me and the whole pack.

And as much as I just wanted to mope around because Nadia wasn’t speaking with me, I knew I had to get something done or I would start to lose myself again.

My pack deserved a responsible Alpha and my mate deserved a good mate, and no one could do that but me.

So here I was.

Even if my heart was too heavy to function, I kept smiling and talking with all the engineers and workers around me.

But then I realized no one was waiting at home for me.

NADIA.

The day went by draggingly slow, and even though I was terrified of Riley at this point, I must admit that I missed him.

I spent half of the day with Jenny.

We just talked about Riley and what he had done and what she thought of him, the good and bad.

And I was thankful that Jenny was being honest with me, with no filters.

She told me about Riley threatening to mark Andrea and how he put his life and his men’s life on the line to assist Alpha Caspian’s pack when the latter was attacked, even if things about Andrea weren’t settled between them.

And how he almost died.

of all the things she told me, this was the one that pained me the most.

I thought that asking Andrea to sleep with him, and the marking was too painful, but those couldn’t compare to the anguish I felt inside at the thoughts of him dying even before I met him.

Even if a part of me wasn’t okay with what he did, I didn’t think I wanted a life without him.

I was still lost up to this point.

I’ve learned many things in just twenty-four hours, but I felt there were still many things I had to find out.

But to be honest, I had no idea if I could take more.

So I told Jenny I was done for the day and spent the rest of the afternoon and early evening at the library on the second floor of the pack house.

I read books by the window overlooking the pack house ground so I could see if they arrived, but it was darker now, and yet, they weren’t home.

I wondered where they ate lunch and dinner.

Did some female invite them over?

I couldn’t help the pang of jealousy from creeping into my heart.

Oh, stop it, Nadia!

I huffed at my own thoughts, reminding myself that Riley wasn’t like that.

Riley could have gotten any female if he wanted to, but he didn’t.

And then I remembered that he thought he was not good enough for anyone.

I was snapped from my own thoughts when I heard a car approaching.

It was the Beta’s car.
