My Alphas' Dark Desires novel Chapter 382

***************

~Xander's POV~

"Dad, Valerie…"

"No excuses, Xander." My dad turned to face me, and this time, he spoke via the mind link again.

"I must see my goddaughter now that she's grown. Please, I could pass on this opportunity to see her."

"That's why you really came, isn't it?"

He smiled brightly, and I had my answer right there.

"Of course, I came for you, too. I wasn't going to let anyone into your head when she isn't your mate or beloved. No. But, yes, Valerie took precedence."

"So, you're not angry?"

"No." I heaved a deep sigh in relief, but his next words stop me short. "And yes. No, because you protected her, and yes, because you were stupid enough to use someone else's image and also get caught."

"Dad," I did not bother using the mind link anymore and shoved my hand into my pocket.

"Enough of your squabbles. Find me, Valerie."

A girl shoved her phone toward her friend, whispering, "Did you get a pic? He's literally a king. Oh my God."

"No pics," the friend whispered, eyes darting. "Don't be creepy."

I rolled my eyes and sighed. "As you wis…"

"Valerie!" we heard a feminine voice call out and dad and I followed the voice with our gaze till they landed on her.

"Valerie."

~Valerie's POV~

Even though Principal Whitmore informed us we'd be interrogated, the White Witches still hadn't done a thing.

Deep down I was thankful they hadn't since I wouldn't want them figging my memories and finding Nightshade.

But wait…

Nightshade wasn't all I had to protect and prevent them from finding.

My parents and my identity.

I froze mid step in picking my books to leave for the next class while my brain ranascked my mind for a proper solution.

"Well, you have more thatn just your identity to keep, Valerie," Astra's concerned vocied reached me.

"There's more?"

"Yes, your powers. You must find a way to escape this witch hunt."

"I know," I shut my eyes in frustration and lifted my head. Just thinking about it alone was making my head ache.

"Don't just stand there. Meet with your mates, and figure out who's really behind this."

"Easier said than done, Astra. First, I must ensure I kill Dominic Harvey tomorrow without fail."

"Valerie?"

I opened my eyes and lowered my head to see Isla standing in front fo my table and staring at me with narrowed eyes. "Are you okay?"

I gave a firm nodded, picked my books and walked out with her.
