Chapter 6

Hector POV
It seems things are developing faster than I planned.
I locate my beta. Ezra, standing watch outside the coffee shop, one of many establishments that I part
own.
Entering, the doorbell chimes, and the reported female is standing at the counter... this will be like taking candy from a baby.
She's not even on guard.
My men had reported Amber Desert warriors entering the nearby city, changing their coordinates throughout the night. Apparently chasing a female that managed to elude them in the darkness and continuing to do so during the early hours of the morning.
I expected someone a bit more... athletic to outrun warriors but then again the Amber Desert training isn't as superior as the Dark Phantom's extensive program.
When the news reached me, I couldn't resist finding some pleasure in the Amber Desert warrior's failure, demanding that my beta enter the city immediately to search out more information.
And here we are, as luck would have it, that not only would she choose to take a break in a coffee shop, but a coffee shop part owned by myself.
When my associate reported that she was asking questions about the Dark Phantom pack, I just knew I had to meet her. Who exactly was she and why has she left the Amber Desert pack? Or should I say run away...
I'm intentional in the way I walk up behind her, letting my tall figure engulf her smaller petite frame.
Even from behind she was extremely attractive, she had long flowing wavy dark brown hair...my wolf starts to act oddly almost arguing with himself in wanting her to turn around.
"I hear you've been asking after me?" I ask, purposefully trying to get her to turn around.
As she does, my heart stops beating...air catches in the back of my throat.
I can't believe it.
She's looks just like... 1
But this female has a spark in her eye, a level of determination that starts to confuse my wolf.
Her eyes were green yet the closer you look into them, they seem to fade slightly into blue. A blue rim. around her pupil.
I can't help but continue to stare into her eyes, they hold some kind of self-belief in them.
She was strong..whether she knows it or not I'll have to wait to
+ I'll have to wait to find out.
My wolf was stirring, something about her was continuing to puzzle him.
She was a cute little thing, her hands clenching into tiny fists as she seemed to be debating something
with her own wolf,
Did she honestly believe she could attack me?
She's been enquiring about my pack and I enjoy watching her try to answer my questions as she remains careful not to give too much away.
I'm mindful of not mentioning the Amber Desert pack being the one she has run away from...I'd much rather watch her squirm for some time, enjoy her trying to think she has the upper hand. "Perhaps I could join the Dark Phantom pack? I am looking for a new pack..."
So, she was now a rogue as I thought, I can't suppress my own chuckle at already being able to read her.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
"Do you take in rogues?" a
"Becoming a Dark Phantom pack member requires...certain tests."
"What kind of tests?" She asks as her eyes glance to Ezra as he enters the coffee shop, having already heard her question.
I move away, walking to my business partner but keeping my eyes on her the entire time. I don't think she would run...but I'm prepared to chase, in case she does,
"What did you tell her?" I mind-link my man that is one of my eyes and ears in this city.
"Nothing Alpha, she said she was looking for someone who was last seen at the Dark Phantom pack grounds.*
Looking for someone eh?
My attention returns back to Ezra, who is busy counting cruel tasks on his finger.
"Underwater breathing? Whatever for?" Her eyes finally leave mine, to now concentrate fully on Ezra with a tone of perplexity.
She wouldn't need to do any tests to join the pack, but not that I was willing to let her know that. She was coming with me, back to the pack main grounds, no matter what.
She can think that she has a choice but the truth is, she won't be allowed to leave...not the Dark Phantom Pack, not this coffee shop without me.
I continue to watch her, I can't help but watch her. She held herself with a level of authority that I can tell she was born with. Something like that you can't learn in life.
Oh yes, she knew she was strong.
My wolf starts to plot a plan in my mind, something that could finally bring me what I wanted after all these years, finally the answer to all my prayers. And she's landed almost in my lap, a gift from the Moon Goddess herself. "You really want to join my pack?" I cut Ezra off as I blow on my hot coffee.
She seems to take a moment to think, she's more intelligent than....

"Yes." She replies and a small smile enters onto my face, until I remind myself, she was now part of a bigger picture.
She was trying to conceal her identity, that she wasn't from the Amber Desert pack. I was going to have some fun with her. Perhaps for now I'll make her squirm just a little.
I walk back towards her, my smile no more as I whisper into her ear...
"I know who you are."
