Chapter 496

It was true, the Silver Crescent pack and the Redmoon pack have kind of merged into one pack with Gavin being the Alpha. It'll be that way until the Redmoon is appointed an Alpha. I do feel better though knowing Ethan is out of the running.

"Now that Sammy is no longer a factor, will my father let you move back in?" Irene asked. "I could use some extra help with this baby. I mean Gamma Erik has been helpful... but I need another girl for assistance."

"What about the maids?" I asked.

She rolled her eyes at the idea before her eyes were fixed on me.

"They are usless unless it's about housework. They don't know a thing about babies. They are just as clueless as I am," she murmured.

"Well, I'll be happy to help whenever I'm here," Nan said with a shrug. "I don't mind."

"I can help too. I don't know if moving in is a good idea right now, but I'll definitely be around to help you too, Irene. You aren't expected to take care of his baby by yourself. You shouldn't be expected to take care of his baby at all. It wasn't right for Stella to do this to you."

Irene nodded.

"My dad is trying to find someone to adopt her," she said softly. "He told me this arrangement is temporary."

I nodded, assuming as much. I doubted Gavin would want his daughter to be a

single mother, hidden away in his mansion, with her ex's baby.

"Well, until that happens, we'll be happy to help you," I assured her.

She smiled thoughtfully as she looked between the two of us.

“I've never had a group of friends before,” she whispered, her eyes welling with tears. "I'm so thankful for you girls."

"Well, you got us," Nan said, returning her smile. "For life."

Third Person POV

"Alpha, your daughter is here."

Leaning back in his seat, a scowl on his face, he nodded at his subordinate.

"Let her in," he murmured, waiting as his daughter stepped into the office, her eyes downcast, already knowing the reprimand she was about to receive. She didn't bother saying anything, knowing he would speak when he was ready. "You've disappointed me, Samantha. You failed in your mission."

"I'm sorry, Father..." Sammy murmured, tears welling in her eyes. "I'm not cut out for this kind of assignment. You should have given the assignment to Chrissy."

"Chrissy doesn't make friends as well as you do," Levi muttered, thinking about his oldest daughter She was popular and had plenty of friends but she gets them by being ruthless and unstoppable. She flaunts her money around as if it was a part of her personality. That's not someone Judy Montague would want to be friends with. Samantha on the other hand had a kindness to her; she was humble and had a lighter aura. She was someone that Judy would trust without a second thought.

"I ruined the friendship..." Sammy said, nibbling on her lower lip. "She will never speak to me again."

Just then, a woman walked into the office; her piercing eyes penetrating through Levi and a smirk decorated his handsome features. He holds his arms out to her, and she goes to him almost immediately, sitting her figure on his lap. Sammy had seen her before and knew that she was his father's mistress.

“Lila darling, I might be using you again after all,” he told the woman, nuzzling his face in her neck, peppering a kiss where he plans to one day mark her. A shiver ran through her spine and her perfectly plump lips tipped upward into a smile. "Anything," she told him.

It made him grin, knowing he could make her do whatever she wanted.

"The first plan to get the information didn't work, Levi explained to her, his eyes darting to Sammy. Her cheeks burned as she stared a the ground shame crossing over her features. "But that wasn't the only plan. My second plan is to get Judy out of his pack and make her switch allegiance. She had become Gavin's weakness, removing her from

Gavin's life will leave an opening for an attack on his business. There will be mistakes made, and I'll be there to unlock his deepest secrets."

The woman, Lila, chuckled.

"I'm happy to do my part," she purred, leaning down to brush her lips across his.noveldrama

"Give me some time and I'll have her packing her bags in no time."
