Triple Alpha's Threat

Ch. 51 - Ruby

Kiera POV

After laying on the floor for what seemed like hours, just staring at the ceiling with a blissful smile on my face I finally sat up.

'Goddess, Athena, I think we are in trouble.'

'I think we are perfectly fine. Our boys even think so too.' She giggled like a little school girl, floating peacefully inside me. 'I think they have some kind of magic that we absorb or something.' Her voice wistful as she thought of our most recent rump with Drake and Chase.

'You sound completely love sick. We are in trouble.' I mumbled to her as I headed to the bathroom.

'I'm not love sick, just a female wolf that knows when a man can pleasure her in all the right ways.'

The warm water coated my skin like a sheet of pure sunlight. I felt strong and powerful, and I loved the pressure building inside me. I needed a long run to get out all this energy bubbling inside me.

As I dressed in a simple black cotton dress with white wildflowers on it a knock came at my door. My body tensed and legs squeezed together. Was it a noisy pack member or the Alphas again?

'Just food, Kiera." Athen popped in my head. 'I'm starving. I hope our boys know what we like.'

I opened the door to a young girl, maybe ten, holding a plate covered with a silver lid.

"Luna of the South.' The girl gave me a slight courtesy, a bow to her head and appreciative smile. "Alpha Chase requested food to be sent to you."

"Thank you, sweet girl. That was very kind of you to bring to me." I took the food from her hands. Her eyes looked up to me and I saw both pride and sadness within them.

"Are you ok? Would you like to join me for breakfast?" I asked, feeling uneasy to let her just walk away.

"Thank you, Luna, but I must get back to my duties first. We aren't allowed to eat until our chores are complete."

"Chores?" I questioned, concerned what they made her do here in the pack house.

"Yes, Alpha Drake's head woman, Lady Beatrice, has very strict rules that we all must follow. Enjoy your meal." She gave me a smile then turned and walked back towards the house built like a castle.

'After we find Tracy we need to visit this so called 'head woman' of Drake's. Something feels off with that little girl.'

'I didn't like the look in her eyes either. Something was haunting her. And head woman? I don't like that title.' Athena said in agreement, with a sneer referring to this Beatrice's title.

The plate was piled high with eggs, fruit, and so much meats. Not just traditional breakfast food either, salami, steak, and ham piled up. I guess the Alphas thought I worked up an appetite this morning.

I grabbed my plate, after cleaning it of every crumb, and headed into the pack house. I needed to start figuring out a plan.

Walking into the kitchen every woman, and child stopped what they were doing to look at me.

"Hello, I'm Kiera." I awkwardly announced. I scanned their faces and not single one seemed familiar. My old pack should be here somewhere too.

"I was looking for a woman. She is tall, almost as tall as me. Brownish red hair, lightly tan skin, and large brown eyes. Her name is Tracy and would had arrived here a few months ago pregnant. She is from the Nightmare pack of the South. Does any know of this woman... maybe someone from the same pack?"

I was met with silence at first, then they all turned and continued on with their work. Athena surged inside of me from their disrespect, but I reminded her to let me have full control. I didn't know any of their stories and I can't be so quick to judge them or their behavior.
