Chapter 120 - ALPHA XERXES (2/2)

There, on the border of their territory, their alpha and his beta welcomed them with opened arms, he looked kind, with a big smile on his lips, as he spoke cheerfully at Anthony.

He was slightly shorter and bigger than Blue's uncle with blonde hair that was cut into a militarian style.

However, for unknown reason, Blue didn't like him. There was something in his eyes that made her felt warry.

Immediately, they got off of the car and were escorted to their pack house.

This pack apparently had not yet suffered from the attack of human, as there were no trace of battle or even a look of grievence on their expression.

They had not yet experienced the brute forced of The Hound.

”Where is your niece?” the Alpha of the Shadow Moon pack talked to Anthony, as he looked around to find the little girl that he had mentioned before.

Once this group marched toward the pack house, as they walked past many houses along the way, on their left and right side of the road.

”Zuri, come here,” Anthony called for Blue, as he stretched out his arms toward the girl.

Obediently, Blue came to her uncle and stood beside him, as she held his hand tightly, she didn't look at the alpha because she didn't like him.

”Hey, Zuri, you have a beautiful name.” The alpha crouched down in front of her, so they were on the same eye level. ”I am Alpha Xerxes.” He stretched out his hand, asking for a handshake.

Blue raised her head and looked at her uncle. Anthony nodded to assure her that it was fine.

”Thank you Alpha Xerxes for receiving us,” Blue mumbled and shook his hand, but she still didn't want to see him in the eyes.

”Good girl, she is smart and know what to say,” Alpha Xerxes laughed and patted her small shoulder. ”Can I see you in your wolf?”

Blue frowned and only then she looked at his eyes and saw greed there.

”I don't think it's the right time, we have a long journey and all of us are tired,” Anthony spoke softly, he tried to be as polite as he could, since it was not his nature to speak this way as an alpha, but their pack was desparated for help. ”Maybe she can show it to you later.”

”Oh, right… right, my bad,” Xerxes mumbled, but his eyes were on Blue. ”Let's go to the pack house then.”

And they started to move again, but for some odd reason, Blue felt they were being surrounded not escorted.
