Obsidian Alpha

Chapter 24

Leander’s POV

I have been getting more and more restless in the past few days. Going to see Morena during the night and watching her through the cameras in my room do nothing to satisfy my desire for her. I was gradually growing obsessed with her. And the taste of her I had was pure torture since my pride would not allow me to go to her. I only went into the room two times fearing she might sense me and wake up or for a trace of my scent to remain there. I watch her from the window for a while before leaving. I am becoming down right an obsessed stalker. This has to end. I am starting to grow distracted from my pack’s business and I am sure enemies are waiting for the slightest mistake on our behalf to attack.

I had to find a solution for the Morena issue though. I need to start taking things off my mind one by one. There was no use keeping her locked in her room. If there is someone behind her, it is probably better to get her out of the room. There is no way to find out the truth with her imprisoned. Even Asolf has been nagging me non stop for ages now. He claims that we should not be doing this to our destined mate. I know he is blinded by his instincts. I am the voice of reason in this. I am bound by my duty to protect myself and every member of my pack.

The next morning, i send my beta to fetch morena for me since I had a mountain of paperwork to get done. a few minutes later, he returns all by himself.

“Where is she, Asmund?” I ask my beta as he comes in and closes the office door behind him.

“She refused to come with me. She said she was ordered to not leave her room unless it was you or Asher who fetched her and since I was neither she said she will not come.” He explains.

I chuckle at her beahvior. She knew Asmund was my beta yet she still remembered my initial orders. The mutt was afraid I would punish and I could not blame her. We both did not give each other any reason to trust one another so far. Even though she has been here for the past three weeks.

Asher was on the border of the pack monitoring the patrols, so he can’t go get her. Which meant I had no choice but to go get her myself.

“Thank you, Asmund. I will take care of this. You may go attend to your business.” I dismiss him standing up to go to my room.

he nodded his head in respect before turning to leave. he hesitates for a second clearly having something to say.

“What is it?” I inquire.

“ I have something I would like to say and I hope you will not take it the wrong way.” He replies. He was a careful man and he was one of the very few I could actually entrust with my life. He has been around my whole life and he has seen it all. If he had something to say it means it was something important since he rarely expressed his opinion in anything but pack business.

“Of course, Asmund. You know how much I appreciate your opinion.” I urge him.

“Be nice to the girl, alpha.” He simply says and I was taken aback. The last thing I expected this to be about is the Morena issue.

“Why are you telling me this?” I ask.

“You can feel her innocence in a mile long radius , Leander. Consider the fact that what you think of her could be entirely wrong.” He replies before leaving not allowing me a chance to reply.

I sigh in despair. Asher has been nagging me none stop about this thing and now even my beta got involved. I head out of my office and towards my room. Her scent engulfed me from the moment I turned in the corridor. This was going to take a lot of my self control to get through. hopefully i can get her out of the room before throwing her on the bed an ravaging her.

I knowk on the door and wait for her response. I usually would not ask for permission to enter my own room but I could not risk her being just out of the shower or something. There was much self control I could have.

“Come in.” she softly says and I immediately open the door. I spot her sitting on the couch with her phone in her hand.

“The last thing I expected is for you to knock on the door.” She comments not lifting her eyes from her phone screen. it kind of pissed me off. I half expected her to jump me the moment I come into the room.

“I could have a bit of decency from time to time.” I reply sarcastically.

“Good to know.” She says before putting her phone to her side and finally directing her attention towards me. “I presume you have a reason to be here, alpha?” She asks coldly and her tone does not sit well with me. I think the days we have been apart and her imprisoment have really took a toll on her.

“I do not appreciate your tone, Morena but I am going to let it slide this time. Go get changed into something more decent. You are coming with me. “ I say pointing to the short pyjamas she had on.

“Where are we going?” she asks.

“I do not like people who ask many questions, mutt. Go change before I change my mind.” I threaten. She is about to say something before huffing an okay and heading towards the bathroom. I sit on the edge of the bed waiting for her. I put my head into the palms of my hands trying to get a hold of Aslof as her smell engulfs us from every corner of the room.

She comes out after a few minutes wearing a royal blue sundress and white sneakers. Her hair was tied up in a ponytail adn she had a minimum of makeup on. Her outfit was nothing fancy. Nothing compared to what Anna sometimes put on but all I could think about was how fucking gorgeous she was.

“Come on. Let’s go. We have a lot to do and little time to do it.” I say shaking the perverted thoughts out of my mind and heading out of the room with her close on my tail.
