Alpha Remus

Willow knocks on my door. "Here's the fax from the attorney's office you were waiting for. Do you need anything else from me?" She blinks prettily.

"No. That will be all." I motion for her to leave. I don't know if she even left at all as I am so intent on the divorce papers she just handed me. I can't let my anger cool down or I won't do what I have resolved to do. I refuse to have a disloyal wife. Anyone in my position would feel the same. If I hesitate for one moment, I will weaken. That is why I had my attorney fax over divorce papers. In our territory, if both parties sign the agreement, it takes immediate effect.

I'll show her how swift punishment will be. I have people packing her clothes and things right now. Of course, she is not taking anything of value. None of the jewelry or fancy dresses I got her for meetings at headquarters. Just her plain clothes. The ones she had before we married. Her family is poor and they will suffer for her crimes against me, too.

I am moving her to that old cabin, far back in the woods. I will allow her the old car she used to drive, because she will need it to make it to the pack house to do the menial chores I have assigned her. She'll be working from daybreak to sunset.

I grip the divorce papers violently in my hand. I so badly want to rip them to shreds, but I can't. My pride is at stake.

Willow sticks her head in the door again. "Alpha..."

"Do you not know how to use a phone, willow? Can you stop just barging in here when I am busy."

She steps back, a look of hurt crosses her face. I am not sympathetic. If she is to be my assistant, she needs to stop this foolish hero worship and do her damn job.

"I'm sorry, Alpha, but..."

"Go out and pick up your phone and call me to tell me what you need to tell me. I am sick of looking at female faces!"

She hurries out the door and slams it shut. The force from the slam actually calms my nerves a bit. I would love to be slamming doors and breaking things right now. She's lucky I didn't grab her around her skinny neck. These females need to learn their place.

My desk phone rings and I answer on speaker. "Yes." I bark into it.

"Your beta and the enforcer team are here as you requested." She squeaks out.

"Send them in." I yell and cut off the connection. The door opens and six men, all dressed in black tacticals enter. This is the uniform all my men, including my officers and beta wear. "Have a seat, gentlemen." They all find a place to sit. I pass out folders that have color copies of the photos I received. Of course, there are black bars covering Haven's intimate areas, but it leaves enough that the males can tell it is Haven with other men.

"What is this, Alpha?" A shocked Beta Tobias asks.

"Exactly what it looks like. My mate has been cheating on me. Here is the photographic proof." I growl.

"Remus, I don't think these are real..." Tobias begins but I cut him off.

"Do you not have eyes?" My growl deepens in warning. "Can you not see the proof before you?"

He nods nervously and wisely keeps his mouth shut.

"What you see before you was delivered to me around an hour ago. Willow brought them to me unopened in my mail. I want each of you on this immediately. I want you to bring me these males who have been with my wife." I seethe. "They will face execution."

"Alpha, none of these males are from our pack. I recognize no one." Lead Enforcer Malikai or Kai Frazier asserts. "In order to track them down, we are going to have to have access to an internet connection and a laptop. Do I have your permission to acquire these items? It will probably take up to a week to have everything in place and to research it."
