For a second, just a fleeting second, no one said anything. But obviously, it didn’t last more than that, as Lucian burst out into a loud laugh that filled the

The bastard rejected her at the altar, in a revenge plan. He killed Savannah’s whole family. She ran from him, and that’s how I found her in my territory and… I cleared my throat. I decided to take her as nume. Since then, Hunter has been sending wolves to my territory to take her back. I killed them all, one by one. None of the attacks had been serious, until the last one.

“And why isn’t she here?” the elder without eyes retorted.
“Because….. why should she be?”
It was an alpha’s summon, an exclusive meeting to address what had been happening in our forest. There was no reason for Savannah to be present.
“My son, she’s your mated companion now, the queen of your pack. No King should rule without a Queen. Have her called here at once,” ordered the elder,
“She… um………. won’t entertain political matters, I can assure you”
“It doesn’t matter. As I said, as your mated companion, the must be aware of the risk your pack faces.”
“My pack isn’t at risk. What happened was an isolated incident that won’t happen again,” I snapped.
Lucian laughed.
Trouble in paradise?”
“The alpha is alter her. We want to hear from her, meet her. Since you decided to mate with her, she’s important to us now. Flesh of the same Desh, blood of the same blood, they are one.”
Ever since I had that brilliant idea.
I grabbed the gold goblet and drained the wine from it. Of all the nightmares I could have, adding Savannah to a dinner with them was at the top of the list.

“Until that happens, he’s already caused too much trouble for you,”
He killed one of your wolves, an innocent pup from your pack. The pack you swore to protect above all else!” scolded the elder without ears
At that moment, I would’ve loved for him to truly not hear a thing. But that wasn’t the case.
“Have the girl called, Fenrir. Or we’ll do it for you,” insisted the elder without eyes, after the elder without lips moved closer to him.
I shot a quick glance at Jax, who was watching me intently.
“Maybe Fenrit is night, Konrad interjected. “The girl must be stressed, dealing with a lot of problems. The disturbing pursuit of her ex–fiancé, the guilt she must feel for the boy’s death…
“Well, I would love to meet the female who… stole the mourning heart of our dear Fenrir, Lucian whispered, throwing another grape into his mouth.

“Bring her.” he directed, locking eyes with mine. “You know she’ll come, one way or another, so it’s better if she comes through someone she knows, someone
familiar to her.
I pressed my lips together and nodded, agreeing with him.
It was a unanimous decision from the elders, they would bring Savannah to the dinner one way or another.

I’ll bring her,” I communicated.
“Great! We need to talk about how to contain the damage caused by the Eclipse pack, responded the elder without eyes.
“Until it reaches my territory, it’s not my problem,” retorted Lucian. ‘Fenrir stole the girl from another, let him fight his own battles.”
“I don’t remember asking for your help,” I hissed through clenched teeth.
“Very good, because I’m quite happy not to help,” he smiled.
“If Hunter continues his attacks, the wolf might become a problem for all of us. He won’t rest until he gets the girl, and handing her over is out of the question. She’s tied to Fenrir and, by the law of the wolves, belongs to him and only him since the mating,” shot Konrad.
“How dare he go against this?” murmured lax. “It borders on stupidity. No matter what agreement he made with Savannah, it was broken the moment she was marked by Fenrir.”
“Now I really want to meet this wolf. Two alphas dueling for her, she must be something special,” mocked
Lucian.

Lucian’s breath was heavy, mixing with the growl that came from his mouth.
“Behave, pups! We are at the table, and we do not tolerate insults and rebellion”
Irritated, I sent a message to Anton, ordering him to bring Savannah immediately and to warn her about what would happen and who she would meet. Then I dropped the phone and began to pray, hoping that she would be calm at that moment.
