Chapter 105

“Mom, did you want me to have a heart attack?” Alpha Nick asked after pushing the door openwithout

knocking. He was worried sick about Sheridan leaving him again in any way when his mother wasthe one who

snatched her from his arms. It felt like he had run a marathon in search of her.

Athena, who was calmly reading a book, was annoyed by the intrusion, unfazed by any worry inAlpha Nick’s tone. “Relax. She’s sleeping.”

Alpha Nick sauntered over to the woman on the bed, sleeping peacefully as if she had no careabout the ongoings in and around the pack.

That was unlike Sheridan, and the fact that she was snatched from his arms made it even moreconfusing.

“How is it possible? What did you do to her, and where is Dad?” He began to move strands of hairfrom Sheridan’s face to the back of her ears, careful enough not to wake her. “I have to take her tomy room.”

“I did nothing to her, and your father should also be among the people we left behind. Sheridan isspecial, and I can’t allow anything to happen to her when she’s in this pack.”

Dropping the book on the nightstand, she explained further. “I used the bracelet she gave me. Iexchanged the energy when I gave her the necklace.”

Alpha Nick sighed, knowing that he had to keep all that his mother was saying a secret. When hewas younger, she had protected him with these powers, but he could never inherit them. As hismother would say, he was not the chosen one.

Right now, his concern was not the charm but rather the woman on the bed. “So why is shesleeping in the midst of chaos?”

Athena gazed lovingly at Sheridan before she began to explain it slowly. “I could not let her knowthat I was saving her from something dangerous. You have to find Charlotte and make sure she’sdead,” Athena said seriously, and Alpha Nick was slightly confused.

He indeed wanted to erase every trace of Charlotte, but for it to be mentioned by his mother meantthere was more to Charlotte than he ever knew.

“I don’t care about Charlotte. I will take Sheridan with me.”

Athena had a displeased look. “You don’t understand. Charlotte has a cursed wolf. She can causeyou trouble,

but knowing she can’t defeat you, her target would be Sheridan.”

Alpha Nick took a deep breath. Never would he allow any harm to come close to Sheridan or Daisy.Then again, she had mentioned Daisy’s life being in danger and the reason for her return to takeDaisy into the safety of her pack.

“So, what do I do? Where do I find her?” It would not be hard for him to end Charlotte, but theproblem was if he would be able to find her and her cursed wolf.

“Good question. You can’t find her, but she will first try to find a place to settle before she tries totake revenge.” Athena was composed. It was almost as if she could see into the future. Alpha Nickdid not doubt her, knowing her abilities since he was a child.

The only problem he had with her before was concerning Sheridan when Athena insisted that AlphaNick should not let her go. It seemed that Athena was always right about everything, especiallywhen she said that Alpha Nick would regret it.

“How long do we have?” novelbin

Alpha Nick was eager to end this menace called Charlotte as soon as possible, but this time,Athena did not have a specific answer for him.

“I don’t know. It can take months, but we can protect the pack with a lot of charcoal. Her wolf isrepelled by charcoal.”

Alpha Nick wanted to ask about how Athena knew about Charlotte’s wolf, but there was too much tohandle at the moment. He hoped she hadn’t gotten far so they could trap her with the charcoalbefore it was too late.

Then again, they would have to burn a lot of trees to get enough charcoal to cover the pack since ithad been peaceful without recent attacks.

“Thanks, Mom, take care of Sherry. I will sort this out and make sure that I mark her,” he said with adarkened gaze. He was so eager to mark her after Charlotte’s stoning, but who knew that this wasgoing to happen?

Athena smiled knowingly. “Yes. That is very important. It would make her stronger, and she wouldbe able to defeat Charlotte.”

Alpha Nick did not like the idea of Sheridan battling Charlotte. It was his mess, and he wasdetermined to handle

it alone. “Charlotte is my problem. I would kill her myself.”

Athena disagreed. “No. Sheridan can stand against her after you mark her. In case you don’t know,the two women did not appear in your life by coincidence. Leave now. The pack needs you,” Athenafinally said after seeing the confusion on Alpha Nick’s face.

Alpha Nick could not let matters rest. “Mom, why are you talking like this? There is a lot I need toknow, and why did you hide it for so long? This isn’t just about your charms, right? How come youknow so much?”

Athena had a small smile on her face. Her sickness was the price she had to pay for what she haduntil she could give it to the right person. If she began to explain now, there would just be too muchchaos.

“Your pack and her brother’s need answers. Use all the help you can gather. Nick, we shall havethis talk again but not now. If Sheridan wakes up now, she would insist on going with you, and youwon’t be able to stop her.”

Alpha Nick did not see a problem with that. “If she is up to it, it would even be better.” All he wanted,was his

Luna by his side.

“No, Nick, you have to mark her first.”

“But we have a child together already,” Alpha Nick revealed. If the mark was to bond them, he justwanted

Athena to know that they had a different bond.

To his amazement, Athena’s eyes lit up like that of a little girl. “Why did you not tell me? Is it a girl?”

“I just found out yesterday, but how could you be so accurate in your guessing?”

Alpha Nick did not get a response but rather, his mother stood up and hugged him. “Nick, if you hadmarked Charlotte even by accident, you would have never had Sheridan. They were both yourmates from the onset. I

want to see my grandchild.”

No one knew that Athena being weak all the time was because of her wolf. It had special powersAthena could never enjoy. Only her grandchild would be able to do so.

“Mom. Let’s talk about it tomorrow. I have to go now.”

As soon as his hands touched the doorknob, that voice, that warmed his heart so much was heard.“Nick, where

are you going?” Sheridan sat on the bed with a confused expression, massaging her temple froma terrible

headache.
