Chapter 0182
Hector POV
After breakfast | head into my office keen to continue reading the file that Jude had providedwith. From what
| can understand the ancestors moved from pack land to pack land in search of their original land.
But skind of conflict occurred within the group forcing them to break apart, to break away. Many joined
other packs looking for a way to connect with the more modern shifter lifestyle, while a select few regathered.
But | can't seem to find anything on whether this group still existed today and if they did, where they would be
now.
| needed to know more, in t| would tell Kaia of my research but not until | knew everything, not until I knew
all the information before sharing it with her.
She'll have questions and | want to be able to answer every one of them for her.
Continuing to read, | feel one of the gate guards pushing on the mind-link, they had only switched over from the
night shift about two hours ago, why was he contactingthis already. "Yes?"
"Alpha, Alpha Than of the Amber Desert pack is at the gates, wanting entry."

"This early?"
"Yes Alpha, he says it's important.” | bet he did. For Than to be here this early, he must have been up even
earlier thanthis morning.
I'm reluctant to let him in, especially with Kaia upstairs in this house, but if my feelings serveright, he will be
returning the divorce papers. As soon as he delivers them, I'll kick him out. "Grant access, but he needs to be
followed in." | command through the mind-link.
"Yes Alpha."
| quickly gather the documents spread out across the desk and place them safely back in my safe. Only H and
Jude knew about my research and | planned to keep it that way.
| hear the cars pull up outside but I have no intention of welcoming him into my house, | wouldn't move from my
spot. | don't want him to feel welcomed in the h| built for myself. The hmy children would never be
casted out of.
"Aubrey, can you direct our arrival into the office please."
"Yes Alpha." Aubrey quickly responds through the mind-link.
Silently, Aubrey walks him through the house and towards my office where she taps on the door and opens it.
Her jaw is tense, her hands pulling at a tea towel in her hands as she lets him walk past her. She remains stood
in her spot, staring daggers into his back and | have to command her to leave.

He enters my office not as confident as he usually was the strong smell of whiskey seeping out of his pours. He
was a drunk. He had lost weight and his hair was a mess, hadn't been cut for weeks. He looked awful. "You
stink." | grunt out at him.
"Nice to see you too Brother."
"We aren't brothers, what do you want." | snarl at him as his eyes look around my office, his eyes casting on
things that makewonder if he is trying to find details on what | have been doing.
But | think it was just my paranoia, Than had clearly been hitting the bottle since he was forced to leave Alora.

| don't think he was in a fit state to underhandedly gain information fromor even run his own pack at
the moment.
"I cwith a gift." He throws the envelope onto the desk and | recognise it instantly as the divorce papers that
| had given to his beta Zane.
"Are they signed?"
"Of course they are signed." | check all the same, just to make sure.
"How is she?" He asks about Alora as | look through the papers, checking his signature is in fact where it should
be.
"Yes fine, | haven't spoken to her for a few days." My answer is aloof, as my eyes search through the documents
satisfied that | just now need to get Kaia to somehow sign them, without her realising what they actually are.
"No...I actually meant Kaia." My blood boils as his lips even mention her name. My wolf givesa warning that
he doesn't like her being upstairs and him downstairs. | needed him to be gone as soon as possible. Ebony
