Kids From One Alpha” By Selena Lynch Chapter 149
Chapter 149 : usations
“I’m not talking about this again,” Santino growled. Alexandra sat across from him at his desk. She alwa
ys came to his office to talk about Damon now, because it was a frustrating conversation and
she never wanted to have it in front of the kids. Santino didn‘t even need her to say anything, now. She
had a certain expression on her face when she‘de into his office and sit down.
“You haven‘t even heard what I have to say,” Alexandra said, crossing her arms. “You don‘t have to say
anything. I know what this is about,” Santino grumbled, shifting the papers
on his desk. Of course, Alexandra caught him at a time when
he didn‘t have anything to work on. A lull in his day. He had no reason to make an excuse to back out of
the conversation and he doubted anyone would
be calling him. “Santino, you can‘t keep avoiding this conversation,” Alexandra argued. “We‘ve had the
conversation. My answer hasn‘t changed,” he said. “But you didn‘t see him. He really sounded like he‘d
changed and like he‘d give up his lust for power for the chance to raise his son,” Alexandra said in a
rush.
Santino had heard it all before.
“I know
this. You‘ve said it before,” he pointed out. He grabbed a pen and flipped it back and forth between his f
ingers.
“But you‘re not listening,” Alexandra argued.
Santino growled and sat up straight, throwing the pen aside. “I am listening. I’m just not willing to jeopar
dize the safety of the pack on a hunch. You shouldn‘t be either!” “It isn‘t a hunch,” Alexandra cried, thro
wing her arms up. “I saw him!” “He‘s tricked you before,” Santino reminded her, propping his elbows on
the desk and resting his chin on his hands. “He is just asking for an appeal,” Alexandra said.
“The pack had a fair trial and the sentence was imprisonment for life. If he wants an appeal, he will hav
e to wait until the proper amount of time has passed to petition for one. I can‘t grant appeals on your wo
rd alone. That would be unfair to the sentence the pack voted on,” he exined. He shouldn‘t have had
to exin any of this. Alexandra knew packw. She knew how it worked, but she was asking Santino
to make exceptions for a man he had no desire to see
free ever again. As an Alpha, he couldn‘t always let his personal
feelings get in the way, but on this matter, he was relying on his personal feelings and the experiences
he‘d Damon already. The madman was still dangerous.
Chapter 149. usations The fact that Alexandra was asking Santino to show favoritism and break pa
ck protocol for her brother told him that she wasn‘t thinking rationally. Damon had her good and fooled,
again. Santino had to protect the pack and protect his family. That included Alexandra. Even if meant pr
otecting her from herself. “It doesn‘t seem like you‘re actually listening to me,” Alexandrained, s
haking her head.
“I‘m sorry, Alex. I wish I could say that I trusted him enough to make an exception, but I don‘t. He will ju
st have to show, over time, that he‘s changed. Then the pack can decide whether he is deserving of an
appeal,” Santino said. “That is the only fair way.” “I wish you could have seen what I saw,” Alexandra si
ghed, softening in her chair.
“Even if I‘d seen it, I wouldn‘t be ying favorites with him. Damon will have the chance for an appeal
when the time is right, base don
packw. If he is still remorseful and willing to do right by his son by then, then he‘ll have a better case,
” he said.
“You know, you don‘t have to trust Damon,” Alexandra muttered. “You could just trust me.” “That is not f
air,” Santino said mming his hand on the desk.
Alexandra started and leaned away from him.
“This has nothing to do with me trusting you. It is about Damon, his maniptive skills, and your repetiti
ve wish to trust him,” Santino said. “Why can‘t you trust who I trust? You did the same thing with Willia
m,” Alexandra used.
Santino rolled his eyes. “Alex, we‘vee
a long way since then. Besides, William was trying to sleep with you. Damon could try and take over th
e pack again. Both impact me and our family personally.” Mercifully, the phone on Santino‘s desk rang.
He sighed in relief and
answered it. “Santino, we have a problem,” Logan‘s voice came through the line. “Is it Serena, the twin
s?” Santino asked, immediately thinking the worst. “No, they are all fine. Damon has escaped,” Logan r
eported. “WHAT!?” Santino roared, jumping out of his seat. “The guards said a woman with a baby cam
e to visit him. Apparently, she‘d been there before with Alexandra, so the guards let her in without quest
ion. Next thing they know, Damon, the woman, and the baby were gone.” Logan exined. Santino sig
hed and dropped down in his chair again. His hand tightened around the phone.
“I have to go,” Santino said. He needed to get to
the prison and see if he could pick up Damon‘s trail. He grabbed his coat and headed for the office door
guards thought she was cleared for visits,” he exined.
“Oh no. Is this real?” Alexandra asked, face paling. “Are you really that
surprised?” Santino asked. “What does that mean?” Alexandra countered, surprise turning to anger.
“You‘ve been pestering me to appeal his sentence for days and you took Larissa to see Damon behind m
help him escape,” she argued, throwing her arms out to the sides, her head back on her neck.
