That day when she walk inside her suite, she realized that something was wrong. The window was open and she had left the light on. She didn't have wolf sight anymore because of this issue, she needed to have it on. And so she slowly closed the door and turned the light on.

"So what can I service you with?" She asked the intruders in the suite as nicely as possible.

"What are you doing here? This is a private property."

"This is a public hotel." She replied. "This is not a private property."

The two men growled. "You know as well as we do that this is private property when it comes to werewolves." One of the then said.

"Why don't you introduce yourselves and I will do the same and then we can talk about intentions?" Ariel said.

The men looked at her with confusion apparent in their eyes. They were used to rogues acting out when they were caught, not sitting down and gesturing them to sit as well. She knew how to deal with these situations and higher ups. She had done this so many times as well. Just on the other side, not on the criminal one.

They had to listen to her. She hadn't been aggressive towards them. Even when rogues trespassed, pack wolves had to follow rules. They could kick them out of the territory but couldn't harm them unless they initiated the fight. So one of them sat down on the couch opposite to her while the other stood next to the door.

"I am Alpha Bryce's beta Jared and this is Alpha Michael's warrior." The one who sat down spoke.

"My name is Alpha Ariel Checke."

Both the men stiffened. If a rogue trespassed on a pack land, it's criminal act. When up a pack wolf trespassed, it meant trouble usually. And if an alpha entered another alpha's territory without permission or announcing themselves, it meant an act of war. So the men realize that they were in trouble.

"I'm not here as an enemy." Ariel said slowly, trying to reassure them. She stood up slowly and took off her jacket and put it aside leaving herself in a tank top and a skirt. "You can see me and I am not carrying any weapons right now."

She sat down again.

"Listen to me first and then one of you can go and get your alpha while the other stays and keeps an eyes on me, deal?" She asked them.

Jared nodded instantly. It was a good deal. Because as far as they were concerned, she was an alpha. Meaning, she could take them both down before they could even contact their alphas. So in their eyes, she was doing them a courtesy.

"I know this city is a combined territory of both Alpha Michael and Alpha Bryce. But I didn't know when I moved here. I found out only a week ago and as you can see there, I was already packing to leave." She pointed to her suitcase.

They didn't look over, they had already searched through her suite.

"You aren't the ones who'll be making the decision about my stay or anything so will you see which one of the alphas is free and ask him to kindly come here. I will tell him the story when he comes here."

Jared looked at the warrior and gestured him to leave. It was obvious he, as a beta, would have a better chance against an alpha than a warrior.

"Are you hungry? Would you like some food?" She asked him as she stood up once more and walked to the phone. "I'm ordering some room service for myself."

"No, thank you." Jared said through gritted teeth. He needed to keep it civil until one of the alphas arrived. He had tried to link his own but he was blocking him out. Same for alpha Michael. They must be too busy. So now they had to physically fetch them and it put him in danger. He knew he would die for his pack but it was an unnecessary risk that he shouldn't have had to take.
