Against the Alpha’s Claim – Chapter 306

suits and ties

She gazed at him intently before exiting the bedroom to inform the children that they would dine in the dining room prior to her escorting them to school. They remained attired in their jammies, as it was still early. They were able to dine in their pyjamas this morning.

Shared breakfast with Dani and Margaret. Nora commenced work only after the children returned from school, hence it was not unexpected that she was absent at this hour of the morning. She inferred that Dani was awake, as Robyn had probably attended training and consequently risen with him.

Margaret resembled Bella, as she was awake due to Benzy’s departure from the group. Both women had laughed upon seeing her. Will you ever absolve him of responsibility? Margaret enquired of her.

“No, not until he relinquishes it entirely, but today, ladies, I shall organise that wardrobe above.” The donation bin would receive a plethora of suits and flat shoes. She shook her head, as she never wore flat shoes; she preferred heels and was currently traversing in three-inch stilettos, feeling more like herself.

Luke and his entire team entered, all attired in suits and ties. She observed that he was attired in his Pack suit, as were all of them, for that matter. A formal gathering appeared to be taking place at a certain location.

He frowned directly at him; he had stated he was not allied, so why the suit?

He settled next her after procuring supper. “We will probably be absent for the entire day,” he informed her.

“What is the rationale behind your Alpha Suite?” She inquired.”

“Formal business is paramount,” he informed her.

“Is it necessary for all of you to dress in that manner?”

“We do,” he affirmed. “It is a standard requirement of the meeting we are attending.”

“What information are you withholding from me?” She gazed directly at him.

“It is merely an Alpha Meeting.” “Select colours to be worn by all attendees.” His gaze shifted to her. “All is well; I would inform you otherwise.”

She narrowed her eyes at him for an extended while before simply nodding, “Are you going to Buffalo?””

“We are,” he said. “Do you require anything from the City?”

“Indeed, I do: Margaret does as well.” She nodded. “Both cribs we are considering can be purchased there.”

Are you still satisfied with the soft grey convertible cot?’”

“I am,” she grinned at him. “You made a prudent choice, but!” I would also like to have a bassinet, possibly with a rocker, in my workplace. Do you believe you will have the opportunity to procure that?”

“I am confident that we can allocate time for purchasing baby items.” Provide me with a message regarding anything you appreciate. I will ascertain whether I can obtain it.

“No, you may select it; I am aware of your fondness for baby shopping and your discerning eye.” She smiled at him, really cognisant of this fact. He became quite affectionate when they were shopping online for baby items, exploring many options, and she had identified her preferences, which were all quite appealing. He had not been consulted regarding the triplets.

Bella desired for him to have input this time. The majority of the items she had ordered were, in fact, those he appreciated or desired. Precisely down to the charming bedding he had selected.

It was light grey and white, featuring embossed polar bears and snow foxes in opposing corners, with deer and bunnies in the other corners. It was exceedingly sweet.

He embraced her upon observing a modest taupe and white bedspread featuring a moon with a wolf resting within it. Shed placed the order without informing him, intending to demonstrate her understanding and attentiveness to him. It was not scheduled to arrive for another week; she had specifically addressed it to him for delivery directly to his desk.

Although they occasionally experienced irritation at one another, she remained intent on bringing him joy by offering modest tokens that she knew would elicit a smile: “Do you have a colour preference?” He enquired, breaking her contemplation.

She smiled at him, saying, “No, indulge yourself; acquire whatever you desire.” She leaned over and kissed him gently. “I appreciate your aesthetic for the nursery.” Indeed, he favoured minimalist designs characterised by clean lines and a palette of soft grey and white. The nursery would appear sleek and contemporary while exuding comfort and softness. “I proposed a soft grey and white colour scheme, complemented by several Moon decorations.”

He smiled directly at her and said, “I would appreciate that.” He nodded in agreement.

She anticipated that he would, and it would not astonish her if he returned home with an assortment of items, beyond merely the cot and bassinet. She harboured a hope that he would. He consistently enquired about her desires, displayed his preferences, yet instructed her to pursue her own wishes. It was somewhat exasperating, although she comprehended the rationale.

Status: Completed Type: Author: Artist: , , Released: 2024 Native Language: English
Bella, once the cherished lover of future Alpha Luke of the Red Moon Pack, finds her world shattered when she is banished from her pack. Her crime? Striking Luke’s newly discovered fated mate with claws unsheathed—a reflex her wolf, Tyler, cryptically defends with the words, “To protect the pup.” Stripped of her place in the pack and warned never to return, Bella complies, narrowly avoiding the rogue label since Luke has not yet ascended to full Alpha status. Heartbroken and resolute, she retreats to the human world, immersing herself in university life to complete her law degree. Bella carves out a new existence as a successful divorce attorney, far from the pack that cast her aside, the future Luna who despises her, and the secret she guards fiercely—her children, the legacy of a love she can never reclaim. Six years pass in self-imposed exile, but the past refuses to stay buried. When an official letter from the Red Moon Pack demands her return, Bella defiantly burns it, vowing never to step foot in Luke’s territory again. But Luke, now the reigning Alpha, is relentless. He will bring her back, no matter the cost. Bound by the constraints of human law and society, Luke cannot simply take her by force—her prominence in the human world complicates any attempt to make her disappear. Yet, he is determined to claim what he believes is his by right. As their paths cross again, Bella is thrust into a storm of conflicting emotions. Her wolf yearns for Luke, urging her to reclaim the bond they share, but Bella’s heart is torn. She despises the man who cast her out yet still feels the undeniable pull of their connection. To her, Luke’s motives are clear: he wants his heirs by his side, not her. She believes his wolf drives him to claim her, while the man himself sees her merely as the mother of his children, a convenient solution to his legacy. But is that the truth? Or does Luke harbor a deeper love for her that he has yet to admit—even to himself? In the battle between pride and fate, will Bella surrender to the mate bond or stand firm in her resolve to remain free? Only time will reveal whether their fractured past can heal, or if the scars will prove too deep to overcome.
