Chapter 161
[SAMANTHA’s Point of View]
“Dominic...”
I rushed to my husband’s office to clarify something I had heard in the hallways of the pack manor that morning. I wasn’t ready to go back to work yet, but some of the council members told me that my presence in the pack manor would boost the people’s morale.
After Dominic and I had been away from the pack for several nights after the Bennetts abducted Devon and Diana, the people started to doubt if Dominic still had everything under his control. I felt that the people were still unaware of the destroyed gates, the number of deaths that occurred at the eastern gates, and the level of threat that the Silver Crescent was facing.
Once the people of Silver Crescent discovered what was really happening in their territory, there would be total chaos. And I never let these people rebel against him and tarnish my husband’s reputation as an Alpha. I had to do something. I had to stop this. I had to stop Fang Trinity and Black Claw from ruining the pack that Dominic had been working so hard on.
“Samantha...” he stood from his seat with a surprised look on his face and then smiled as he failed to hide the nervousness in his eyes. “Is there a problem?”
I felt awful when I realized he was always worried whenever I rushed into his office. He became accustomed to me rushing to him during emergencies involving the kids, and it was disheartening that we had lost all sense of peace in our lives since the kids and I moved to this pack. I wanted to question my decision.
Maybe Killian and Olivia were right that we shouldn’t have left the Moonstone pack. But when I see Dominic, the man in front of me, gazing at me with worry and love, all of these perturbations melt away. I chose him. I wanted him back in my life and to have the family I always dreamed of.
I would choose my husband over and over.
I closed the gap between us and kissed his lips gently. He looked at me, all puzzled, but with a smile on his face. All the nervousness etched on his face disappeared as he pulled me against him and kissed me again so deeply. Hungrily.
He sighed when I pulled away from him gently, but stayed in his arms. “What’s wrong? Are the kids safe? Are they with you?”
“Yes. They are at my office with Madison and Cynthia,” I said to him softly.
