**TITLE: Werewolf and 29**
**Involved**
**Dallas’ POV**
The lunch hour unfolded on the Alpha floor, a space charged with an air of tension. It was clear that no one wished to cross paths with Daniella today. I had no doubt in my mind that she would position herself strategically close to Daxton, her watchful eyes fixed on him like a hawk sizing up its prey.
Daniella was determined to ensure that Daxton remained blissfully unaware of any potential connections, and she would seize every opportunity to monitor him, reporting back to Madeline at every turn. It was a game of shadows, and she played it well.
As I strolled into the main dining room the following morning, engaged in a conversation with Pearl about the upcoming trial, the atmosphere shifted abruptly. Every voice around us fell silent, and I felt the weight of their gazes, filled with fury, directed toward my Squad members. Instinctively, I knew that trouble had been brewing.
“What’s happening here?” I inquired, striding towards the nearest table where some of my Squad members were seated.
“Apologies, Captain. Jesper instructed us not to disturb you, but he had to take Marco and Belinda to the infirmary,” one of them replied, his voice laced with concern. Charna, standing nearby, let out a low growl, a warning signal of the brewing storm.
“Marco was attacked on the patio, and Belinda tried to defend him, but she got hurt in the process,” another added, their expression grim.
“Locate the individual responsible for this attack and link me once you have them,” I commanded, my tone firm as I turned towards the table where Pearl remained steadfastly at my side.
An unsettling silence enveloped us as Pearl and I settled into our seats, the tension palpable. Anger radiated from my Squad members like heat from a fire, and I knew that whoever had instigated this would soon learn that their Alpha was not one to shy away from justice. I had mere moments to devise a fitting punishment.
In an effort to lighten the mood, Pearl ventured a question about the decor on the Beta floor. “What do you think of the interior?” she asked, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.
“Well, it’s quite evident that whoever resided there had no real interest in making it comfortable. It seems they only use it for sleeping, and aside from that, they hardly spend any time there,” I replied, glancing at Pearl to gauge her reaction.
“Why would I waste time on an empty floor?” Darius interjected, and I caught a glimpse of Pearl stifling a smile behind her hands.
“To unwind, perhaps? To bond with your brother? To read a book or engage in something that distracts you from daily responsibilities?” I suggested, my voice light but probing.
Ruth, who had been observing the exchange, shifted her gaze between Darius and Daxton before bursting into laughter. The notion that these two might indulge in relaxation seemed utterly absurd to her.
“If I need to clear my head, I head to the training grounds or run along the border,” Daxton chimed in, his tone matter-of-fact. I rolled my eyes in response.
“Do you genuinely believe that space is inviting? Do you think your Mate and future children would feel at home there?” I challenged him, my gaze fixed on Daxton, fully aware that Lara and Daniella were eavesdropping on our conversation, their expressions revealing their intrigue.
“I never considered that,” Daxton admitted, scratching his head. “I assumed our Mate would redecorate the Beta floor. Maybe Darius and I should discuss it; I certainly wouldn’t want to scare her off before the bond is formed.”
Daniella’s face contorted in mild disgust; she still struggled with the idea of Darius and Daxton sharing a Mate. It was as if she overlooked the most fundamental aspect of such connections—they shared everything, and I meant everything.
Lara was busy linking with someone, her expression tense. I could only imagine what kind of foolish comment Daniella would make next regarding our discussion.
“Daxton won’t be living on the Beta floor forever. Once Darius finds his connection, he’ll have to move,” Daniella declared, and I couldn’t help but wonder where she had been when intelligence was being distributed.
“First of all, Daxton and I will share a Mate. Secondly, if we weren’t twins, I wouldn’t ask him to move out. He’s my brother, and he’ll remain on the Beta floor until he chooses otherwise,” Darius growled, his voice low and menacing.
Daniella stared at Darius, but my focus shifted to Lara. She was still deep in her mind-link, her facial expressions betraying her discomfort with whoever was on the other end of the line.
Just then, a commotion erupted at the front door, cutting through the tension like a knife. We could hear a struggle, and moments later, a figure was forcefully thrust into the dining room.
“Captain, this is the one who attacked Marco,” Pablo, one of my Squad members, announced as he approached the figure sprawled on the floor.
Lara paled at the sight of the individual lying there, and I noticed Pablo shooting her a glare that could melt steel.
“Alpha Preston, can you summon all Pack members to the Pack house?” I requested, my voice steady. “Pablo, gather the Squad and relieve the members on border patrol. I want everyone to witness this and understand that I will not tolerate any form of disrespect.”
Alpha Preston, knowing better than to refuse my command after the last blunder he made, nodded in agreement. He understood that this matter was mine to handle, especially since it involved one of my Squad members. My status allowed me to impose a heavier punishment than an Alpha could without consulting the Elders or the King.
The moment I finished speaking, my Squad members surged out of the Pack house, ready to defend our borders with their lives, just as they would for the Scarlet Crescent Pack.
It took about thirty minutes before Preston informed me that all Pack members had gathered, including Belinda and Marco, who were flanked by a visibly furious Jesper. If given the chance, Jesper would tear this fool apart without hesitation, and no one would be able to stop him.
“Good morning, everyone. I apologize for interrupting your usual routines. For those who haven’t heard, two of our Pack members were taken to the infirmary this morning. Someone believed they had the right to attack a child—one who happens to be the brother-in-law of my third-in-command,” I announced, my voice steady, fully aware that my words would ignite a firestorm of anger among the gathered Pack members.
Everyone was acutely aware that attacking a high-ranking Pack member was a grave offense, and Jesper’s position as my third-in-command was akin to that of a Gamma.
I caught sight of Madeline and Daniella standing side by side, and I couldn’t help but wonder if either of them had a hand in this debacle.
Conclusion
In the aftermath of the chaos that erupted in the dining room, the tension within the Pack was palpable, yet it also ignited a sense of unity and resolve among its members. As I stood before them, the weight of my authority pressed down like a heavy cloak, but I felt the unwavering support of my Squad and the collective strength of the Pack surrounding me. The sight of Marco and Belinda, though injured, reminded us all of the stakes involved; this was not merely about punishment but about safeguarding our family. The anger that surged through the crowd was not just for the attack but for the betrayal of trust that came with it. I could see the fire in Jesper’s eyes, a reflection of the fierce loyalty that bound us together, and in that moment, I knew that we would not let this transgression go unpunished.
As I prepared to deliver justice, I felt a sense of clarity wash over me. This was not just a matter of retribution; it was about setting a precedent for what we stood for as a Pack. The bonds we forged were not only of blood but of mutual respect and protection. I glanced at Darius and Daxton, their faces set with determination, and I understood that our shared journey was about to take a pivotal turn. We would emerge from this stronger, more unified, and ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead. The emotional arc of this moment was not merely about anger or vengeance; it was a reaffirmation of our commitment to each other, a reminder that we were not just individuals but a formidable force, ready to defend our own. In this crucible of conflict, we would find our strength, and together, we would rise to claim our rightful place among the stars.
