The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary

Chapter 41

Then without hesitating, I pierced my claws into his chest and ripped out his spine. Blood splutters out

of him as his eyes rolled to the back of his sku ll. His last breath leaving him with his body hunching

limp in my hold. I dropped his body to the ground and walked away when it pooled around him. Blood

stained my dress and soaked my hand but I didn’t mind. Blood spammed into the crevices of my ring.

The dark red drilling around the green stone made me frown.

Had it been four year ago, I wouldnt have been able to stomach the sight of this. I learned to embrace

the blood I grew accustomed to seeing and drawing out but it didn’t mean I

liked it.

But I’ll make the exception for today.

It was rather personal.

“Now,”

I said when I reached the group of Alphas. Chancellor Williams was smiling wide, eyes lit with

amusement. He hated Alpha Windril as much as anyone could but he couldn’t kick him out of the

Alpha’s seat. That was a power no one had unless a challenger had come across. Meredith couldn’t

risk challenging him when she had no heir in line to succeed her, then. Then she found me.

“Let’s get back into the conference room, shall we?”

I turned to the direction of the Capital only to stop when I heard a chuckle.

“No, I don’t think there’s a need, Selene.”

I looked at Chancellor Williams with a quizzical brow lifted. His eyes scanned the group of Alphas once,

before turning back to look at me.

“I don’t believe there’s anyone else who would disagree with letting you handle the rogues. I’d already

wished for you to handle it, but needed all the Alphas to agree. The conference was opportunity for

those who had an objection to let it be known…. But we do have to discuss what you want to do with

Windril’s pack, Evergreen.”

I exhaled. I almost forgot about that. I let my head crane to the group of huddled Betas and Lunas

before landing my eyes on Cade. He met me in the eyes, not flinching away or staring at me in hatred. I

motioned to him with my head,

“I don’t want it. Give it to the boy. It was rightfully his anyway.”

Walking off to where Noah stood with a handkerchief in his hand, I took it gratefully and wiped the

blood smudged on my face and hands.

“Shall I send someone to collect the rogues?”

I asked Chancellor Williams. He shook his head and grinned.

“No. I’ll have someone send them over to you.”

He paused, smirking as he shot me a look of question.

“Will I be seeing you at the Gala next week?”

Walking with Noah trailing behind me, I raised my hand dismissively.

“You can count on it.”

Landon’s POV

I watched as Selene walked away with the Beta following after her. To say she had left me speechless

was an understatement. She left everyone gaping after her disappearing figure.

“May this be a lesson to all of you.”

I turned to look at Chancellor Williams who too, was looking after Selene’s silhouette.

“Don’t mistake her disinterest in gaining more power as weakness. It’ll do you well to remember that.

Unless of course, you want to end up like him.”

He said pointedly looking at the spineless man laying on the ground.

Literally.

Without another word, the Chancellor turned around with his hands behind his back and walked away.

“You’re all dismissed.”

The tension immediately lifted when the Chancellor and Selene left. I felt my wolf howl in pride, seeing

firsthand how capable and strong his mate was. While I, on the other hand, was completely and utterly

in shock. Beta Benicio quickly ran over to me with Hestia right behind him.

“W-was that Selene? Our Selene?”

He asked, clearly bothered. I nodded once, my gaze glued to the ground. Then something came over

me. Something that urged me to follow her. So I did. I ran down the field, following her scent that was

almost completely different from the one I remembered but somehow wholeheartedly the same. I heard

the other Alphas speak among themselves about what was going on but I ignored them. Beta Benicio

was hot on my trail but I was still faster.

Finally, I caught sight of her.

She was stepping inside her car surrounded by two vans filled with warriors. The man she was with

spoke quietly to her in hushed tones. I stopped in my step and waited for her to notice me. She froze,

sniffing the air with a confused expression on her face before lifting her gorgeous blue eyes to meet my

green ones. Her expression remained the same.

Neither happy nor sad to see me.

Neutral.

“Selene.”

I began, slowly beginning to make my way toward her. The man by her side immediately took a stance,

aggression rolling off him in waves when Selene lifted her hand up. As soon as she did, the tension

had diffused and the man who was so close to lunging at me obediently stepped aside.

“Alpha Walker.”

She said in a smooth, strong voice. A voice suited for a Luna’s.

A wave of disappointment washed over me as I heard her address me with my title. Not only that, but

with my last name. She was indirectly telling me she didn’t consider us any more than acquaintances. I

shouldn’t be surprised but we were mates.
