Chapter Seventy Alpha Blake I groaned when Luca was in my head reminding me about the meeting this morning. F*ck, I didn’t want to leave Ryley. She just opened up sexually and I wanted to see how far she was willing to take it. But ending it like that was just wrong and my balls ached. I cleaned up the plates while Ryley made me a coffee to go. I’d keep her just for her coffee alone. There was nothing this woman couldn’t do. When it was done, I kissed her one last time before leaving her office and heading down the hallway to mine. I was making a me*tal list of everything I needed to do before we left this afternoon. I entered my office to find Luca pacing. “Finally,” he exclaimed, throwing his hands up. “What’s wrong?” I asked him, placing my mug on the desk. He was about to speak when he sniffed the air. He grinned and began wiggling his eyebrows. “Oh, that’s why you left me to deal with that grumpy old bat. You were having some morning fun,” he chuckled. “We ate breakfast in her office.” I clarified. “That’s what the kids are calling it nowadays?” He gave me a pointed look. “We may have kissed,” I shrugged and he lifted a brow. “Okay, more like we made out. And I was enjoying it until you popped ||| < Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
12:01 into my head.” I scoffed. “Looks like she is feeling better,” he teased. “It was a good morning until my mother decided to confront her at breakfast,” I grumbled. “F*ck.” He breathed out.
“And now Issac has requested a meeting with her in his office at ten am tomorrow. So, you will be in charge of the pack and boys until we get back tomorrow evening. And while I deal with the grumpy old bat, I need you to get the jet ready. And get a moving truck ready. They can meet us at her house so we can start moving everything out.” I explained. “Can he not just call her?” Luca questioned and I was wondering the same thing. “She told me she has been trying to get a hold of him but he hasn’t responded. The email request came in this more.” I told him. “Well, I’ll get started getting everything ready. Mr. Grumpy is waiting in the conference room for you.” He informed me. “I’m going but cancel the rest of my meetings.” He gave me a nod before leaving my office. I grumbled to myself as I took my coffee and headed to the conference room. This was going to make for an even longer morning. I couldn’t wait to leave the conference room after the meeting was finally over. Some people don’t like change. And when you are running a business, you have to be willing to do so for your business to succeed. That’s the biggest challenge when dealing with older generations. Trying to convince them to upgrade. Chapter Seventy 288 (Vouchers “Done?” Luca asked through the link. “Finally,” I exasperated. “Good. Get Ryley and go pack a bag. The jet is waiting. I also had a moving truck and warriors already on their way. They should be arriving when you are.” He explained. “Thanks, man, I appreciate it,” I told him. “And I already talked to the boys. I’m going to station a few warriors on the alpha floor. They feel they can handle themselves since they have their wolves.” “Of course they do. Fine, the warriors will do. I don’t think the alpha would be stu*id enough to storm my pack looking for his son. But I do think his father would hunt down Ryley.” I said.
“That’s why I sent warriors and not movers. This way you both have a backup if anything were to happen.” He told me. “You might need a raise,” I chuckled. He was always thinking of everything. “I would never turn one down. Have fun. He ended the link and I made my way to Ryley’s office. I knocked quickly before entering, finding her behind her desk, typing away on her laptop. I watched as she was deep in thought about something. She must not have heard me knock or enter the room. I took a seat in front of her desk, watching her concentrate. “Blake,” she gasped, noticing me. “I may have to get a chime for the door,” I teased. Chapter Seventy “Or you could knock louder.” She retorted. “Come on, we have to go pack a bag and get to the airport,” I told her standing from my seat. “But I need to finish this,” she protested. “It will still be there when we get back tomorrow,” I assured her. “Fine,” she grumbled, closing her laptop. She stood up from her chair before picking it up. I took it from her before taking her hand and leading her out of the office. I locked the door behind us before walking hand in hand to the alpha floor. Pack members were whispering as we walked by but I ignored them. When Ryley is ready, I’ll make an announcement to the pack explaining what happened. But until then, they will just have to gossip. Ryley let out a breath only after the door to our apartment was closed behind us. “You would think I would still be used to all of that,” she sighed I placed her laptop down before pulling her into my arms. “When you are ready to make an announcement, I’ll explain everything to the pack,” I told her and her breathing hitched. “Only when you are ready. There is no pressure.” I reassured her, hugging her tightly.
“Thank you,” she whispered as she buried her face into my chest. “Anything, baby. Now let’s get ready. We have a flight to catch.”
