"She did enough, now I will say what you are going to do."
The powerful and cold voice commanded from the entrance of the pack house, stilling and freezing everyone on their spot.
A look of fear plastered on each of their faces as they slowly looked at the door at their…
ALPHA.
Even though Suzanne and Patricia didn’t tell their men about what was happening here because they wanted Athena to handle it, one of the guards mind-linked them already and told them what was happening here.
Because he was afraid that they wouldn’t be able to handle the angry crowd.
Dominic and others immediately decided to come back because they were aware of how their members can act when they are angry.
They reached there a few minutes ago.
They were there for enough time to witness how Athena was handling the pack. Dominic was astonished the way everyone calmed down by Athena’s one command.
How eager they were to fulfil her wish considering that as a command! Isn‘t that just great that his pack was happy with his mate? But was that enough? Because from the time he came, he noticed her flinching every time they addressed her as Luna.
He understood it very well what that look meant.He wasn’t ready to face it but he was preparing himself to face it.He was going to face his mistakes bravely if that is what Athena wants.
"Dominic?"
Athena questioned in surprise as she wasn’t expecting him to be there so soon.Her demeanour went back to normal and her calm self as she looked at him.
But soon that changed as she looked at his cold and distanced face.
She frowned, unable to understand why he looked so upset.
Was it because of the pack members or because she interfered in his matters? She couldn’t understand but she didn’t like the look on his face.
"How dare you guys act like the animals you are?!"
Dominic growled in an animalistic tone, almost shaking up the whole mansion.
Everyone immediately dropped on their knees with their heads kneeled down.
They knew they messed up and their alpha was furious about it.
"We are sor-…."
One of them tried to speak up but Dominic‘s other growl shut him up immediately.
"Shut the fuck up! How fucking dare you go against my words and act like this?! Why do you all fucking think of yourself?!"
Dominic growled once again as he took intimidating steps toward them.
And before anyone could understand anything, he reached a nearby member and picked him up by his collar.
The man’s feet were off the ground and they were dangling in the air.
"What happened there?" Thankfully Patricia asked the question on her behalf and she waited for any of them to answer.
"It‘s about his....past."
Justin breathed out in nervousness as well because he knew how sensitive the topic was.
Athena fell into deep confusion after hearing that.
His past? What happened in his past that triggered him so much even after so many years? Was it something that bad? She had to know that.
"Athena, do something!"
Nathan suddenly hissed near her ears, making her jump.He made sure to keep his voice low so that Dominic doesn’t hear him.
"What do you want me to do? I can‘t do anything here!"
She hissed back while looking at Dominic with widened eyes.She has never seen him act like this and it was confusing as well as scary.
"He needs to calm down, Athena.He can’t create a scene like this when his pack members were just trying to be caring toward him; it might affect them negatively.And if anyone can calm him down at this moment, that‘s you.Stop him."
Justin whispered while praying that Dominic doesn’t lose his temper completely.
"He is in his alpha mode.How can I calm him down now?" she asked in confusion, unable to understand why they are thinking that she can calm him down.
"Then get in your Luna mode."
