Chapter 162: The new leader of our Coalition
Xavier POV
I watched my phone ring for the thousandth time today, it was my mom and she was getting on my nerves. Somehow, she got to know about the meeting with Noah yesterday and has been calling non-stop. It wasn’t helping that Jared and the rest of the Alphas had already gone home and he was already laying ground rules without my presence already. I had to even send Lucius to go in my stead.
"You’ll wear out the ground if you keep pacing like that and you’re distracting me too," Kurtis sighed looking up from his laptop. "I’m trying to work here, could you stop being so obvious? Please...".
"I don’t have time to deal with you right now, Kurtis," I said and continued pacing, I have to come up with a plan... or something... anything that would make Noah revoke his decisions. Making Jared as the leader of our Coalition was suicidal.
"Did you get Selene to talk to him again? Or maybe you could pick your mom’s call and go through her? It would be easier I think and Noah respects her to an extent too. Why are you hesitating? If I had a mom, I tell you, I would be on her laps crying like a baby until she gets her brother to do what I want,".
"Stop talking, nonsense, Kurtis!" I sighed staring at my phone again. I was scrolling at the numbers I had on it, trying to see if there was anyone, I could send to Noah again. He wasn’t a difficult person, I knew that much and no matter how angry he is, he would never desert me or turn his back on me.
There was knock from outside, a momentary pause before the door was pushed open and Reid – Noah’s Beta came through. When I saw him, I gathered myself, trying to still the way my heart was pounding as I stared at him. What did he want now.
"Alpha!" his gaze darted to me "His Majesty would give you audience as soon as he’s done with his counselling session this morning. You’re to wait for him in his garden," he came forward and pointed a key towards me "Make sure you’re not tardy because he would not wait for you. So, when you feel is convenient for you, that is the key, let yourself into the garden,".
"Oh!" my lips rounded with surprise; I was at loss for words at the suddenness of his acceptance. "Thank you so much and thank his majesty for me but could you give me a rough guess as to when he finishes with his counselling session. It won’t make sense if I stay all day waiting for him not knowing when he would come exactly,".
