He took a few minutes to compose himself before returning to her room. Upon opening the door, he observed that Daisy remained precisely in the position where he had left her. Appeared anxious to him.
Excrement. He considered, ‘This is unfavourable.’
“I apologize,” he conveyed to her, and genuinely meant it. Subsequently, he shut the door and departed. I wished to avoid witnessing that expression on her face.
Did she harbour fear towards him?
He had not intended to exude such a significant aura towards her. He had assured himself that he would never repeat that behaviour towards her, yet here he was, doing precisely that. As he consistently did. It appeared he was unable to restrain himself. Caelan wished to avoid a recurrence of their previous history, and Daisy certainly did not require that either.
He returned to his office; all he could do was apologise, and he had accomplished that. It is hoped that she would accept it and comprehend that he genuinely intended it.
In his office, he discovered Lydia standing and gazing at him.
What is occurring?Her hands rested on her hips.
“Nothing,” he retorted sharply before taking a seat at his desk.
What is occurring with that girl?She enquired of him directly.
“She disobeyed an order I issued; I merely imposed a punishment,” he stated tersely, feeling no obligation to elucidate further.
Why was she abruptly insisting that he required it as well?
Mason sighed heavily and looked directly at him. “She is fine, Joe,” he declared flatly.
“I suppose I shall investigate personally,” he stated as he rose to his feet.
“What is the reason?” You would be aware if I had harmed her, correct?Caelan fired at him, as the man would.
What is occurring?Lydia abruptly shouted vociferously and stamped her foot at him.
Caelan gradually turned his head to confront the woman who had the audacity to yell at him. Her blue eyes radiated a green hue, indicating the presence of her Alpha wolf, and he sensed her Aura enveloping him.
Caelan recognised that this was her inaugural attempt to assert herself. He recognised that she had transformed since he assumed the role of Alpha. Although she possessed greater authority within his pack. Including him.
“Leave,” he growled at her, projecting his Alpha Aura in response. No one possessed the authority to address him in such a manner.
“I will not,” she retorted, clenching her fists at her sides, continuing to glare at him, seemingly seeking a confrontation.
Caelan smirked at her with a hint of malice. “Are you seeking a confrontation, Lydia?” Do you genuinely believe you… he would, if required, assert his authority over her.
He observed a fleeting glimpse of fear in her expression, after which she turned and exited the room, forcefully closing his office door without uttering a word. Caelan resumed his seat. Hudson was displeased that she had confronted him in such a manner. It appeared that there was a desire to assert dominance over her.
“Joseph”
“Supervisor”
“Spend the afternoon with Daisy.”
“Certainly.” What precisely are you referring to?He nearly laughed, almost taunting him.
Caelan fixed a piercing gaze upon his Beta. “Simply ensure that Lydia is distanced from her.”
Mason affirmed, “Certainly,” and exited the office.
Caelan was certain that Lydia would create complications; she was an alpha-blooded female wolf who believed she had a rightful claim to him. Witnessed him pull Daisy through the pack-house, and now she was eager for a confrontation.
If Lydia observed Mason and Daisy together, she would immediately relax. Those two already possess a robust connection; they often appear to be companions. She would observe it and abandon Daisy.
Heard Hudson growl at him, regarding the notion of his Beta and their Ex, but remained silent. Caelan disregarded him. This was the most straightforward method to keep Daisy off Lydia’s radar and pacify the alpha wolf within her, without necessitating an explanation of Daisy’s identity to him. It seemed that disclosing the truth would not be well received by her.
Caelan was aware that Daisy would have no difficulty spending time with Mason. He found it unpleasant, yet was compelled to endure it. The full moon had passed, and now both he and Mason must wait another month to learn about her.
