I'm Sorry, Did You Say Mate?

Chapter 34

One chapter closer to the end :(

Although, I am super excited about the sequel because it gives me a chance to write about a different character and at the same time write about Sutton and Evan at a later part in their life.

Chapter 34

Sutton’s POV:

            I  made up a game plan as I approached Evan’s office. Inside I could hear a quiet murmuring between him and his father. While I didn’t want to interrupt, this matter was rather pressing. I know how protective Evan is of the pack and the people in it so I would have to tread lightly. I didn’t want him to go into a fit of rage and banish Claire from the pack. While she may have started here with the wrong intentions, she did the right thing by telling me. Steeling myself, I rapped on the door and entered. Evan sat in one of the chairs in front of his father, who was sitting behind his big mahogany desk. They both turned their attention to me as I stepped into the room.

            “Yes?” I took a deep breath and tried to keep calm as I looked on at the current Alpha.

            “I uhh, I have some news.” I stated, wringing my hands. “About the hunters.”

            “What about them?” Evan asked curiously, running his eyes over my body to make sure I was unharmed.

            “Please don’t freak out. I need you to promise you’ll stay calm.” I pleaded, speaking more to Evan.

            “What’s going on Sutton?” I didn’t miss the slightly irritated tone and resisted the urge to roll my eyes.

            “You see, Claire, while she did originally come here searching for me, her plans kind of took a side tour. To make this long story short, Lockey threatened her into selling us out to the hunters so they could have an efficient way of taking us out.” I rushed it all out, wincing as I said it.

            “So, what you’re saying, is that Claire came here to get inside info to give to the hunters?” I nodded. “So that then they could kill us?” I nodded again.

            “But she didn’t tell them anything! She saw how happy we were as a pack and felt guilty so she told me!” I said quickly, seeing the anger rise to his eyes.

            “I want her out.” He hissed, seething. His dad remained silent, a thoughtful expression displayed.

            “But she’s not going to tell them anything!” I objected.

            “Are you sure about that?” He yelled. I jumped at his sudden burst of anger and backed up against the wall. “She could have ruined everything! Think of all the innocent children, all the innocent people of our pack that she could have gotten killed!”

            I cowered at the rage in his voice. I had never seen him so angry and yet, I had a sneaking suspicion there was something else about this that was bugging him. Something else that made him this upset. Evan paced back and forth, taking deep breaths. I watched him walk back and forth, wishing  desperately that I had the courage to walk up to him and wrap him in  a hug. A smile from Mark, his dad, broke through to my attention. Why was he smiling like that? He got up and walked over to Evan, setting his hand on top of shoulder.
