Darian's POV
"So, if I understand well, they took your pack and two of your rival Alphas abducted your mate, and now they want you to take your pack back and give them back their territories?" Dexter Ciara's younger brother asked me, and I nodded.
"To be sincere, Alpha Darian, your case is really complicated, but what I still don't understand is how your mate and pup were abducted right under your watch," he said to me, and immediately I bent my head in shame. I didn't really know how I was going to explain to him that she wasn't abducted under my watch, that she ran away from my castle because of me, and that was how they got the opportunity to abduct her.
"Just as I said earlier, Dexter, that's a long story," Ciara said to Dexter, sparing me from getting humiliated.
