Chapter 0224


    “I assume you wanted to speak to me about something.” He asks coldly


    “I believe Salem is dead.”


    He stills, his eyes shifting from the paperwork up to me. The crimson colour still didn’t quite sit right


    with me, but it wasn’t such a surprise each time I looked at him now. Though Raven had said that


    Dane always believed it was because he was Alpha. I’ve met enough Alpha’s to know that crimson


    eyes were notmon, in fact, I’ve never seen another Wolf with them.


    “I was down in the training hall. I felt this awful pain, spiralling in my heart. Like my life was being


    sucked from me.”


    He rocks in his chair, giving me a knowing look. “That’s the pain of losing a sibling. It’s what Raven


    and I felt when Jenson cut us off. But you are here, so you didn’t kill him?”


    “No, like I said, I was in the training hall.”


    “I hope he suffered for what he did to Eric’s kids and Raven.”


    “You mean Jensons kids?”


    “Eric raised them. You should have told him. Maybe it would have helped……I don’t know at this


    point. I think he’s lost it.”


    “Words won’t help him, Dane. We both know that. Just be grateful he isn’t a Lycan.”


    He didn’t need to ask me what I meant, he knew exactly what I was saying.


    “Are you making us your Beta?” I press


    He presses his lips into a thin line as he clenches his jaw. “I should, but no.”


    “You can’t wait for the drunk to sort it out!”


    “Neah wants you to be my Beta.”


    “What? I can’t do that. I’m not a Wolf.”


    “That’s what I told her. But she did say ck Shadow is hardly just a Wolf pack anymore. She is a


    Lycan. A female Alpha who happens to now be the Luna of my pack. My sons who are heirs to the


    Wolf pack are also Lycans and I have two additional Lycans living in my pack.” He snorts. “She’s


    right. Things are changing.”


    “I’m her guard.”


    “Exactly what the Beta is supposed to do. I know we don’t always see eye to eye Damien. And


    maybe that’s a good thing.”


    I cock a brow at him.


    “Just think about it.”


    He asks if I had spoken to Raven.

    “I thought the pain was something to do with her at first. I thought something had happened. But


    she''s in the kitchen, eating ice cream.”


    “Ah, I don’t need to hear anymore.” He nods knowingly. Raven had told me that Dane had pretty


    much raised her and her twin brother through their teenage years. Taking them on as his own as he


    took the role of Alpha. No doubt she gave him a hard time when she hit puberty. They both probably


    did. I’m d I wasn’t around for that.


    Bing an Alpha at a young age had mostly worked in Danes favour. He definitely knew how to


    force people into helping him. I wondered if he had managed to get someone on the outside to kill


    my brother. I didn''t care if he had, I just wanted to know who so I could congratte them.


    “Who do you think killed him?” Salem had spent several years never being caught. He had outrun


    me. Always ahead of whatever it was we were trying to do and now suddenly, he was dead. I don’t


    buy it. It sounds like someone else was hunting him.


    He shrugs his shoulders. “Does it matter if he’s dead?”


    “It shouldn’t, but I prefer to know who."
