Alpha Kex stopped in his tracks, turning to face me. “What do you mean?” he asked, his tone dangerous.

“You dare call me weak?” he snarled. | swallowed hard, my heart in my throat. “You become weak when you fail to fulfill your promises,” | said, meeting his gaze. He looked confused. “What promise?” he asked, his brow furrowed.

“The day you took me to the storehouse,” | said, my voice barely above a whisper. “When you asked me to hit you, and I refused. You said | could ask you for anything | wanted, and you would grant it.”

He stared at me for a long moment, his expression unreadable. “And now you are asking me to let Aisha go?” he asked, his voice cold.

“Yes, my Alpha,” | said, bowing low in deference. Alpha Kex’s eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched tight. “Do not call me that,” he said, his voice like ice. “I am not your Alpha.”

| straightened, my heart racing. “You may not be my Alpha.” | said, my voice unwavering, “but you are the Alpha of this pack. You must fulfill your promises.

“You are the Alpha, Kex,” Emily said, her voice quivering. “Don’t fall for her craps. You know she’s just trying to manipulate you.” Alpha Kex was silent, his eyes moving from mine to Emily’s, his expression

“You should have asked for something better,” she said, her voice shaking. “You could have asked for anything, and you chose me?”

| smiled, a warm feeling in my chest. “I chose you because you are the most important thing in the world to me,” | said, holding her hand.

The door flew open with a bang, and Harry stood in the doorway, his eyes wide with worry. He ran to Aisha’s side, kneeling beside the bed. | stood back, my heart racing, as he took her in his arms.

“| heard what happened,” he said, his voice thick with emotion. “Are you okay?”

Aisha nodded, her eyes brimming with tears. “I’m okay, thanks to her,” she said, nodding towards me. | smiled, a lump forming in my throat.

Harry got to his feet, his gaze turning to me. “Thank you, for helping her,” he said, his 10:44 Thu, 22 Feb GG-

“It's no trouble,” | replied, my heart-warming at his gratitude.
