母女的秘密授课

“Do you want to know what Eros and I were talking about?” Xerxes knew his guess was right, he could see how Emily became even more nervous and to cut the conversation, she was about to put him into sleep again, but the former alpha spoke something that caught her attention. “He was asking about his mate’s past.”

Eros had never told Xerxes that Zuri was his mate, but for a cunning people like Xerxes, even when you asked question, he could conclude some information out of that.

Asking question to him was akin to explain yourself and your motive, especially when Eros visited him so often.

“What?” Emily couldn’t mask her surprise, she looked at the former alpha, she was hurt. “What do you mean?”

Despite the pain of being woken up like this, Xerxes enjoyed to toy with this na?ve, young girl’s feeling. It was so much fun to see the turmoil inside of her when he spoke those things, this was even more excited than when he talked to Eros.

“He wanted to know why Zuri left this pack,” Xerxes said and then he continued to tell her about a few things that Eros asked about Zuri, though the whole conversation between them was not about her, but he made it looked like that.

On the other hand, Emily simply didn’t know that Zuri was part of this pack. She knew there was a white wolf here, but she didn’t know that was Zuri. She thought it was common for a wolf to have a pure white like her, just like how Eros had black fur in his beast form.

Emily’s head was spinning with this information. She stopped Xerxes because she needed to go to Ariana, as the healer was waiting for her and put the former alpha to sleep.

.....

“Are you, okay?” Ariana asked in concern when she saw Emily came so late and the look on her face was not particularly good. “Did something happen?”

Emily shook her head and forced a smile, so Ariana could stop worrying about her. “It’s okay, I slept so late last night and Eros didn’t wake me up this morning, sorry I am late.”

Emily sat down in front of her desk and started to take out all the equipment that she needed.

“Oh, okay…” Ariana mumbled, the reason was convincing enough, since Eros loved her so much, he must want for her to stay in bed for a little while. “Oh, I just want to let you know that the alpha was here a moment ago, he was looking for you.”

Emily lifted her head in surprise, she blinked her eyes, as if she didn’t believe with what she heard. “Why?”

Ariana shrugged her shoulder. “I don’t know. But, he told me to let you know that he is waiting in his office room.”

“You don’t come with me?”

“He only asked you to come.”

“Should I go now?” Emily grimaced to think that she needed to meet with the alpha. It was a very rare occasion for her to have one on one meeting with him.

“Yeah, you should. He didn’t look in a good mood, it will be good if you don’t let him to wait longer.” Ariana looked relax, she was always so calm.

“Do you have any idea what he wanted to talk about? Can you give me pointer?” Emily could feel the same nervous feeling that she felt when she talked with Xerxes. Did the alpha know about that? impossible…

“I don’t have any idea,” Ariana chuckled. “But, if this is his study room, I think Eros and Colton will be there. You don’t need to be so nervous.”

The information let Emily breathed in relief a little bit and then she walked out of the room to go to the alpha’s office, where she found Colton and Eros.

“What are you doing here?” That was the first thing that Eros spoke when he saw Emily was there. He didn’t like it whenever she got involved with anything related to the pack, especially if this concerned the alpha’s interest.

Eros also rejected the mission earlier when Liam told him to bring Emily with them, yet he was not the alpha and he couldn’t refuse a direct order.

“You all can leave, I called her to come to discuss something with me.” It was Liam, who answered Eros’s question, as he stood up from his seat.

Eros narrowed his eyes, he didn’t budge from his position, as he studied Emily’s expression. He knew her so well to know that she was not comfortable with this meeting. “No,” Eros said firmly. “I will stay here.”

Emily was surprised when she heard how Eros rejected the order, but to be honest, this was not the first time for him to reject an order from the alpha.

“Eros…” Emily whimpered, as she tugged on his sleeve, while Colton grew anxious with Eros’s defiance. “It’s okay, I will just talk with the alpha for a while.”

On the other hand, Liam tilted his head. He was amused by how Eros grew even more brash every day. This young lycan didn’t have a single bone of being submissive in his body, even though it was in front of his alpha.

“Why are you so angry, Eros? You don’t think I will do something bad to her, right?” Liam didn’t even flinch under Eros’s hostility glare. “You don’t need to be worried, I will not harm a single hair of her.”

“You can talk with me here,” Eros said coldly, he ignored Emily’s attempt to make him backed down.

“Verry well,” Liam agreed readily and then looked at Colton. “You can leave.”

Seeing the situation, Colton resigned himself and left the three of them.
