He’s an Alpha She doesn’t Care novel Chapter 129

Edward

He got a call from Alpha Gretta that Alpha Dorian was coming to collect Wynta’s body, that Alpha Nolan was also going to be in attendance, and that Alpha Larissia of the Wolfen Council would also be coming to his pack, for when this happened, to expect Alpha Larissa to arrive shortly, she would get there before Dorian and Nolan.

Wytna’s request had been issued to Dorian, and he’d been quiet about it. Gretta had gotten the impression he didn’t want to take her along, but she’d countered that with she’s just a prisoner to you. What’s the concern I hear you take her everywhere, so she can’t escape her punishment? He’d not been able to argue that because it was what he told everyone about the woman.

Larissa’s presence would add another layer of complexity to the situation. She would observe the proceedings at her discretion, and Edward knew that her judgment could sway the council’s opinions. This afternoon was pivotal; Dorian and Nolan were expected to arrive at 4 PM sharp. Any tardiness would be seen as a blatant disregard for council protocols, and the repercussions could be severe. If they failed to appear, the council would take it upon themselves to seek answers, and Edward could only imagine the chaos that would ensue.

Gretta continued, her tone shifting to one of caution. “As of now, Alpha Nolan has not faced any consequences. The council has decided to play it as if they believe Nolan is still Wynta’s Mate, despite her death. He’s managed to convince them that their bond remains intact. With Wynta gone, there’s no evidence to dispute his claims, and since he is an Alpha with a clean record, they’re willing to take him at his word.”

Edward felt a wave of frustration wash over him. His father, Alpha Peter, was complicit in this charade, playing along with the council’s narrative. Disappointment simmered within Peter, and Edward could sense the anger he was trying to suppress. How could they allow this to happen? It was infuriating to think that Nolan could so easily manipulate the council and escape accountability for his actions.

The thought of Wynta confronting both Dorian and Nolan sent a shiver down his spine. The council had agreed to let her handle the situation as she saw fit, and they were eager to see what she would do. Edward knew Wynta was strong, but the weight of the situation was immense. Larissa would intervene if she deemed it necessary, but the council’s curiosity about Wynta’s intentions was palpable.

Gretta had also informed Nolan’s parents of the truth behind their son’s actions after he left the Blue Ridge Pack. The revelation that Nolan’s Beta, Gamma, and Delta were now imprisoned within their own pack was a bitter pill to swallow. Alpha Peter had taken matters into his own hands, having already dealt with Yale himself, and Edward could only wonder how deep this web of deceit ran.

Tomorrow, a seer would arrive to formally address the situation. It was clear that the current Alpha and Luna were blissfully unaware of the dark history that had unfolded years ago. Nolan’s Gamma and Delta were equally oblivious. Only Nolan and Yale were privy to the coercion that had taken place, but the seer would uncover the truth, both from the past and the present.

Alpha Peter had been forthcoming with information, recounting how Alpha Dorian had visited his pack three years prior, presenting himself as a benevolent leader searching for his long-lost daughter. He had spun a tale of tragedy, claiming that his Luna had been killed and their daughter abducted, a story that had tugged at Peter’s heartstrings.

Dorian had always brought a prisoner with him during his visits, a woman he claimed was responsible for the death of his Luna and the abduction of his daughter. Dorian insisted that this woman was tethered to him, a means to ensure that his daughter would recognize her kin. Edward’s mind raced at the implications of this arrangement. Dorian had provided Peter with the exact date Wynta had been left behind, and it matched the day she had been found and brought into their pack. Everything seemed to align perfectly, creating an illusion of innocence around Dorian.

It was during this time that Nolan had realized Wynta’s true identity. The council believed he had initiated his search for her, telling his father that they had scented each other out, but Wynta had urged him to remain silent. Her past was a haunting shadow, and she needed time to heal from the trauma she had endured. Nolan had respected her wishes, promising patience until she was ready to embrace their bond once more. He had left for Alpha College, vowing to remain faithful, but when he returned, Wynta was nowhere to be found.

Edward’s heart ached for Nolan, who had spent years searching quietly, unable to confide in his father about their agreement. He knew the weight of an Alpha’s duty to claim his Luna, and the shame of not being able to do so must have gnawed at Nolan’s conscience.

Alpha Peter had harbored doubts about his son’s claims that he and Wynta were still bound together. He had let it go, believing Wynta to be long gone, a distant memory that would never resurface. The pack doctor had found no signs of trauma on Wynta, no evidence of the brutalization Nolan had described. The only marks on her body were from the silver cuff and the effects of severe dehydration.

Peter had convinced himself that Wynta had left the pack willingly, packing her belongings and walking away. This led him to believe that if they were truly Mates, their bond had been severed long ago. He had hoped to leave the past behind, but now, with the impending confrontation, he realized that Wynta had her reasons for leaving, reasons that likely stemmed from a rejection of their bond. He would not stand in the way of a pack member seeking their own path.
