Ryder stated, “Indeed, she was a pack member who changed her name; here, she would have been recognised as Brianna Dieng.”
“Dieng, as in the daughter of Anna Dieng?”Enzo enquired immediately.
All attention was directed towards the man now.
Where was this individual thirty minutes ago?
Brianna’s Perspective
Brianna enquired of Logan while seated in their hotel suite, “Are you well, Logan?”She ultimately enquired of him, long after the events at the half pipe, due to that insufferable Alpha, who had shown no regard for the boy’s mental well-being. Merely obtaining his desires, akin to all Alphas.
Observed him affirmatively nodding his head. “Rowan has already apologized.”
“Rowan, is that your wolf?”“She inquired.”
Logan nodded once more, stating, “He merely sought to safeguard you.”
“How do you feel?” It must have been unsettling, perhaps even terrifying. You have only just discovered your past self.
Logan negated with a shake of his head. “In fact, Rowan has been conversing with me for some time.”
“What?”Brianna enquired, utterly astonished by this disclosure. “What is the duration of a while?””
“Approximately six months,” he replied with a shrug.
“Why did you remain silent?” You must have contemplated dreadful, abhorrent thoughts.
“Not really,” he said, gazing directly at her. “I have observed your eyes change colour frequently, and Rowan, my inner self, has informed me about Layla, indicating that we are just like you.” “That one day my eyes would also be capable of transformation.”
“I sincerely apologise, Logan; had I been aware, I would have informed you much earlier.”
“It is acceptable.” I comprehend your reasons for not doing so. That man and that woman are both unkind. You are dissimilar to them.
“I can embody Logan,” she confessed candidly, “not towards humans, but I am indeed quite harsh to my own kind.” It is challenging to articulate.
“It is acceptable; you need not do it at this moment.”
“I will endeavour to answer any questions you may have honestly, but could they be postponed until we return home?” Are distant from this location.
He enquired, “Are all those individuals, the large men, wolves?”“He enquired of her.”
“Yes,” she nodded. “You will likely grow to be large like them; you must learn…” she sighed, “to fight, as it is the nature of wolves to contend for dominance and control.” Rowan, despite being quite young, confronted a fully grown wolf today. It is undesirable; he could have acquiesced, and if he had, according to wolfen law… the goddess, she wished to avoid contemplating that entirely.
Logan gazed directly at her, his expression revealing genuine fear; he understood or inferred the situation. Brianna embraced him and sighed, “You must endeavour to manage Rowan. It will be challenging due to his nature, but if you both can achieve a mutual understanding, it will be more manageable.”
“What is his identity?”She perceived the concern in his tone.
“The specific type of wolf to which I refer.” Wolves typically do not manifest this early; for your specific type of wolf, around 13 years is usual, while most do not acquire their wolves until 16. Therefore, Rowan is unusually early.
“Is that detrimental?”“He inquired.”
“Negative!” “It’s not negative; merely unexpected,” she said, gazing down at him to offer reassurance.
“We ought to approach that individual. “I wish to avoid any trouble, Mother,” he stated.
“Very well, we shall discuss this further at home,” she concurred, as she too wished to avoid incurring Alpha Nathan’s ire.
They arrived 15 minutes prior to the designated time indicated on the paper.
Alpha Nathan personally opened the door, smiled warmly at her and Logan, and invitingly said, “Come on in,” conveying genuine happiness at their arrival.
She was aware that he was untrustworthy. Disregarding the fact that he was coercing her into working during her weekend getaway, when all his daughter needed to do was contact the store and arrange an appointment with her.
Brianna occupied the suite’s dining room table alongside the man’s daughter, Celeste. Brianna attentively listened to the girl articulate her desired dress and took notes. Concentration was somewhat impaired by Alpha Nathan’s presence on the lounge adjacent to Logan in the living area. It was approximately 20 feet distant. She would not arrive in time if Alpha chose to harm her son. She continuously glanced at them with concern.
“I have no intention of harming your son, Brianna,” he remarked after she had glanced in that direction for the fifth time. “I am merely inquisitive.”
She remained discontented, as did Layla, and her heightened auditory perception was attuned to Alpha Nathan and Logan, further hindering her concentration on Celeste’s dress concepts.
Celeste observed her sketch and sighed, repeatedly asserting, “It’s not as I envisioned,” prompting Brianna to commence anew.
