Where am I?

Alex's Pov

"Okay, that went well!" I reasoned and sat on my bed momentarily. After a while, I stood up and started to pace around the room. Something felt odd about it, but I am unable to point a finger at it.

I took a deep breath and sat down once again.

"Why was she shivering when she heard that l put a recorder in my room?" I asked myself and the heavens provided me an answer, Desmond entered just in time, and he was surprised to see me worried.

"What is the matter, Desmond?" I asked, my eyes were still locked on the floor, and I was deep in thought.

"About that girl!" He deadpanned, and I immediately raised my head.

"What about her?" I asked him curiously.

"It's fishy! Rody said he's her uncle, yet they both look like age mates. And when I checked the files he submitted many years ago, I found out that he doesn't have any family. So how can he suddenly claim that he has a niece? Where exactly did she come from?" He asked a rhetorical question.

"You are right Desmond. I remember that my father used to joke about how he was alone in this world! Dad told me that Desmond has no relatives, and that was why he pitied him and made him his beta!" I replied, and we both sighed.

"I expected nothing less from Alpha Adriel, he has a very kind heart. Don't blame me for making him my mentor," Desmond said, and I shook my head.

My father made a lot of people happy, he was a good man, and his goodness landed him into trouble! *Lesson number one, don't trust anyone.* My mum was fond of telling my father, but he just waved at it, telling her that she didn't know people.

To him, everyone was a gentle soul, and he loved and accepted everyone.

Mia has all of his father's attributes, and that is one of the reasons why I am overprotective of her.

"I think we should test her loyalty," I said after some minutes of silence.

"Loyalty? She doesn't look loyal to me, so what is the point?" he replied and shook his head.

"Why don't we check if she's here for another motive, perhaps, Rody sent her to get rid of you!" He said and began to think outside the box.

I smiled at him, Desmond is also extra careful, and he suspects everyone and anyone. He is also worried about my welfare, and he doesn't like to leave me with dishonest people. He makes sure he watches my friends' behaviors before leaving me with them.

I love him, and I trust him more than I trust any lady. Well, apart from my s

isters.

"Okay, that is good, I have already enrolled her in college. That way, we will be able to monitor her closely, also it will make our mission faster. As they say, the more the merrier!" I smiled.

"Ahh! You are the Alpha, anything you say" he replied and shook his head.

"By the way, have you questioned Rody?" I asked, my face turned serious.

"Yes, l have, he told me that she is the firstborn of his brother. His brother gave birth to her out of wedlock," he replied, and I tilted my head to his side.

"That actually sounds very convincing, and it also explains why the age difference between them is very close, " I replied, and Desmond nodded in agreement.

"He also said that he treats her like a sister, not like his niece!" He informed me, and I scoffed.

"What is our business with that? I don't care even if he treats her like a god! " I replied and hissed.

I stood up and patted Desmond's shoulder.

"I knew that I could also count on you. It is getting late, go and enjoy your evening."

"No, it can't be now. There is still a lot of work to be done, and I need to order my men to keep a close eye on you and your movement. Also —"

"Pause," I raised my hand, and gave Desmond a deadly look.

"First, it is not your duty to worry about my wellbeing, secondly, I am not a baby, I can handle myself."

"It is actually my duty to worry about you, Alex. You are our Alpha, nothing must harm you. Your safety is our number one priority!" He replied boldly.

I sighed and murmured softly, "Where exactly did I find you?"

"I understand you. And indeed it should be your top priority since you are my Gamma, " I agreed one-sidedly because I knew that if I wanted to get him back to his room, I must first learn to think like him.

"Yes, thank you for spilling out the truth. I will get to work now," he replied and turned to leave, but I held his arms.

"You see, your wife is my sister and she complains that I am always occupying your work, and you barely have time for her. So, go and meet her today, I don't want her to feel lonely," I replied, and his eyes dropped immediately.

"Mia is it?" He sighed. Although he was putting on a brave face, I could still see the adoration and the smile on his face as he said my sister's name.

Desmond and Mia are a perfect fit for each other.

Desmond is plain, blunt, overprotective, and wild, and he is also loving. While Mia is a gentle soul she has a kind heart, she is gentle, loving, faithful, and loyal and she accepts everyone.

I like the fact that they both understand themselves, and I can see the handwork of Mia on Desmond.

Before he was a very cold man, but after he mated with her, he became a little nicer.

I have five sisters: Maggie, Cinderella, Mabel, Mia, and Jecita, and I really love them.

Nima's Pov

"Drop me down now! Or else I will turn you into ashes!" I threatened with gritting teeth.

A hefty man was carrying me on his shoulder and he was moving so fast that I couldn't even concentrate on my surroundings.

"I said drop me down!" I yelled at him.

"Okay, you ask for it," he replied and threw me to the floor like a bag of logs.

I was really angry, I looked at my surroundings, we were in a dark room, and I couldn't see anyone.
