Chapter 162
[ALPHA DOMINIC’s Point of View]
`I knew the night would be the night our enemies would all come to take advantage of the situation—an important ceremony that would change the lives of the citizens of Silver Crescent. The night that Samantha will be crowned as the one and true Luna of my pack.
“Are you ready for this night, Alpha?”
Liam approached me with a smile on his face. His hands were clasped behind him as he stood beside me and watched the Omegas prepare the venue for the ceremony. Everyone was busy and focused on their tasks as if doing so would make them forget the horrible threat of our enemies outside the gates.
“Yes. Have you checked the whole perimeter? Anything suspicious?”
“No. In fact, it is weird because we didn’t see any Black Claws or any from the Fang Trinity tonight. It’s like they retreated from where they are hiding.” Liam explained as he rubbed his chin while frowning. “I have a feeling they are planning something for tonight, Dominic. So I tripled the guards and made sure there were more Gamma soldiers around the ceremony area. I won’t let these bastards ruin you and Samantha’s night.”
I gave her a nod of approval and a slight smile. “Thank you, Liam, for keeping things on track while Samantha and I were out of the pack, rescuing the kids. You have no idea how much help you are giving me and my wife.”
“What are you talking about?” He patted me on the shoulder while we both watched the workers outside. “I am your Beta. And your best friend for decades, Dominic. I’ve got your back. I know if this happened to me, you would have my back, too. There is nothing for you to worry about. Just focus on Samantha and the kids. This is a very crucial time for both of them. I will handle the rest. You can trust me with this.”
I gave him a pat on the shoulder and then left my office to check on everything.
As I went down the stairs to the main hall, I saw some of the elders and members of the council gathering and talking about something, and they stopped, and they all stared at me when I approached them. I knew most of them still didn’t believe in Samantha’s potential. But I knew my wife. I had seen what she could do. I had witnessed how important we are to her—how much she loved me and the children, that she was willing to sacrifice herself for everyone’s safety.
These people didn’t know. They had no idea.
And I would show them what Samantha was capable of.
