“Uh, Cecily, I’m...” before the woman could finish her sentence, another person interrupted her.
Then, a young male voice came from the phone and asked, “Tell me, where is Kate?”
This voice sounded familiar. I was sure that I had heard this person’s voice more than once, but I couldn’t remember who it was, no matter what.
“May I ask who you are... ?” I asked.
“I’m Alpha Alex from the Ancient Wood Pack.” The other person sounded like he was suppressing his anger.
Oh, I remembered him. When Kate and I were at the Ancient Wood Pack, I met Alex a few times. Back then, I thought that I was going to see Michael. It was Alex who sent me there. We chatted for a while; he was a reliable and powerful Alpha and Kate’s mate.
That elegant female voice just now should be Aunt Carol.
I suddenly realized something. Alex suddenly asked to see Kate by name. He must have discovered that Kate was his mate. I didn’t know how she had been exposed.
“I want to know Kate’s current location,” Alex said coldly.
“Uh...” I hesitated as I tightened my grip on my phone.
From the phone, it seemed like Alex was about to eat Kate. He was furious about this.
Kate was my friend. I wasn’t sure if I should let them contact each other now. After all, Kate left the Ancient Wood Pack so she wouldn’t be with Alpha Alex for the time being.
“We’re not together right now, and we haven’t spoken in a long time. I think Aunt Carol has Kate’s contact information.” I tried to fool him.
I’d talk to Kate about it. But whether or not to see Alex, I’d let Kate decide for herself.
I couldn’t be the one to betray my friend.
I heard a growl from the other end of the phone. It was from Alex, followed by a creepy laugh. I felt goosebumps crawl up my back. I could even imagine Alex’s gloomy expression at that moment.
“Humph, Cecily. I know that you two are friends. You’re in the same university, and you live in the same dormitory,” Alex said on the other end of the phone.
“I don’t live in the student dormitory anymore and haven’t gone to school for a long time.”
What I said was the truth. I had been busy with Michael recently, and because of the matter with Joanna, I hadn’t been to school since I returned from the Ancient Wood Pack.
“Your mate is that Lycan Prince, right?” Alex’s voice sounded a little sinister. “I know what happened when you and Kate escaped to my pack. Kate took that risk to help you. The Lycan Prince was willing to take her with him when he returned because of you. I don’t believe you two haven’t contacted each other.
“I felt it from the day you came. One of you was special to me, but you covered up your scent then. Since then, you have known about this, haven’t you?”
I always knew Alex had a very calm mind and excellent reasoning ability. Even though he sounded furious now, he was still coherent. I could only remain silent.
Alex laughed twice on the other end of the phone. I could tell that this was not a happy laugh.
“It’s fine if you don’t admit it, but I know that Kate is my mate. I’ll give you three days, plus a day’s journey. At most four days, I want to see Kate in my pack.
“Otherwise, I’ll personally go to your school to look for her. By then, I can’t guarantee that I won’t do anything to her. In the meantime, I will also pay a visit to you and your Lycan Prince. You and Kate used my pack as a sanctuary last time. Is your Lycan Prince going to let this mess go?”
I pursed my lips. The threat in Alex’s words was evident.
My life was already a mess. With Alex coming over, I did not know how to deal with it. I didn’t know what I could say to Alex. From Kate’s point of view, I couldn’t promise Alex anything for the time being.
Our call was silent for a long time until another rustling sound was heard. Aunt Carol’s voice came through the phone again. “Cecily, are you still there?”
“I’m here,” I said.
“Alpha Alex was sent away by Davis temporarily, but things are as he said. I can’t get in touch with Kate for the time being, so he forced me to call you,” Aunt Carol said.
“How did he find out about this?” I asked the question that I was most confused about.
From here, I could tell Kate about Alex.
“Alex is Davis’s nephew, and he often comes to our house for dinner,” Aunt Carol said with a sigh.
