Argyros POV
'' Hudson, what are you saying'' Conrad gave a discomforting smile '' Daddy is worried sick about you. Let's go to him''
'' Da..ddy, don't care about me, he should enjoy his meeting... I will stay with Aunt'' .
'' Well, Hudson, Aunt wants to get back to work, and you have to go home'' I explained to him as calmly as I could while rubbing his back, and all he gave was a
'' hmhm'' a straight up no.
'' f**k'' Conrad whispers before looking to the side, and he went silent. He seems frozen in place for a while, lost in thought. He had that look, the look werewolves always have when they are mind-linking, communicating with an alpha. He looks at me and nods to something that no one heard, then he opened his mouth to speak '' You are coming with us, miss''
'' Huh'' Panic rushed through me. The normal reaction from someone who is suddenly forced to do something against their will. I can't get caught up in whatever I am about to get caught up in, I have work to get to, and it is getting late, I need to return to the pack house before Liam returns. We were supposed to go see the sunset together, after all, today was his birthday, I guess that wouldn't be happening again.
Just like that, I was taken to see Hudson's father at the penthouse of the hotel. I didn't need to be told that the child in my arms was the son of some powerful motherfucker. From the moment I stepped into the penthouse, the aura and tension in the air were a whole different level. Strong and dominating, too dominating, I have never felt so much power in one room like this before, not even with Alpha Denzel and my mate Liam combined. Who were these wolves? What pack were they from, and what were they doing in our pack? I didn't know we had visitors.
''Ethan'' Conrad called as we reached our destination. Someone sitting on the sofa, but I couldn't see his face as I literally had men around me like I was a criminal who would escape if they blinked. '' I brought her like you asked''
'' hmmm'' was the only response we got. Just like trained machines, the men parted, making way for the Ethan guy to see me. And Damn, I thought, little Hudson was cute, I haven't seen anything, his father was the real deal, hot as f**k. Though he was seated with his long legs somewhat crossed, I could tell he was about, 6 feet 3, dressed in a simple white shirt with three top buttons undone and black pants, full kiss able lips, I know it is wrong to say that about another man when I have a mate, but I have to admire the goddess work of art. A fine jawline and midnight back hair. In all of his striking features there was something that had me frozen in place. His eyes were the darkest shade of forest green. A flash ran through my head, a man reading something by the fireplace, turned around to look at me. The man from my dream. Forest green eyes. Was Hudson's father.
Back to present
Ethan. The little boy's father. What the f**k is he doing here? After realizing he was the man from my dream, I panicked. Hudson told him how I rescued him from the water, and after so much convincing, Hudson finally agreed to go to him, and once he did, I ran away. Who the hell sits around to listen to the stranger they have seen several times in their dream? Not me. So how the hell is he here? Did he follow me?
Just as I made an attempt to take my first step for another run, probably. His both hands fell on my shoulder and I jumped. Then that dominating voice and European accent came '' It's been 50 years and this pack hasn't changed a bit'' Unlike when it was just Liam and I, others whispered, and laughed. No one dares to even breathe now. Who the hell was this man, and why was everyone so terrified of him?
'' Uncle Ethan, you finally came'' Liam stepped out of the crowd, holding Jennifer's hand. He carried an excited smile. But all that I didn't care, what quipped my interest was ' Uncle', What? Uncle Ethan? Liam told me once about his Uncle, Alpha Ethan of Blackwood pack. The most powerful Alpha in the whole of Europe. The man I bumped into was Alpha Ethan. The one who killed the ladies who try to make a move on him. Great, I get rejected and die 5 minutes later. '' I wasn't informed of your arrival, when did you get here ''
'' This morning'' his voice over my head, both hands still on my shoulder.
'' You should have sent a message''
'' Don't you get informed of usual entering in the pack, or you have been too busy planning your birthday party to remember the safety of the pack'' wow, did he just be little Lima's leadership skill '' Oh yes, that is Daddy's job, where is he?''
'' ammm..'' Liam looks around, flustered '' He had business to attend to, but he will be here''
''Hmm'' was his only response'' and you?'' No one needed to tell me he was talking to me''
'' Oh, her, just ignore her, she is nobody''
'' Look at me'' he ordered, ignoring Liam's word. I didn't waste time and turned to face him, letting his hands drop from my shoulder, our gaze met. He scanned me up and down, giving me that look he gave me at the hotel, trying to figure me out.
'' Daddy, it's waunt'' I heard Hudson's excited voice from behind Ethan. Conrad carried him and he was grinning from chin to chin ''It's waunt''
'' I can see that'' he respond with that blank expression he never take of unless when he carried his son '' Argyros '' he calls '' no wonder you parents gave you that name'' his gaze traveled down my hair and I panicked, wanting to turn around and run away, I didn't want to get that look from him, the look of disgust but he took me by surprise, his finger brushed then coiled a few locks of my hair '' Silver'' he whispers. This is the first time someone knew the meaning of my name without me telling them Silver.
