Chapter 30
“It was my decision, Meredith. And I don’t regret it one bit. I don’t care if what you did was because of
your selfishness because honestly, I did the same. If you were using me, I was using you. You used me
for my bloodline, I used you for the title. We both got what we wanted here but I still got more of the
bargain. The house is just a small token of thanks.” Finally, Meredith smiled. She shook her head in
amusement and breathed in.
“I may have been the one to rescue you that day, but you saved me.”
She whispered to herself. Taking my left hand in hers, she gave me a gentle squeeze before flipping
the small box open. Inside was a ring. A green stone in the center with small carvings of flowers in the
golden band. An engraved “GH” was on the inner band of the ring. It was beautifully elegant.
“This is the Greyhound crest.”
She explains, taking the ring off the slit. She slowly slid the ring on my middle finger. I found myself
surprised to see that it fit perfectly. The green stone shined brightly under the light. It felt empowering to
wear it. My wolf feeling overwhelmed but at the same time pride was swelling in her chest. She truly felt
like an Alpha, now that she was wearing it.
“I would’ve given you this a while ago, but… I didn’t know whether or not you wanted to continue being
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlpha.”
She moved the ring around my finger, smiling brightly at the way it fit.
“I had it resized and everything… I would’ve put it on your ring finger but,”
She peered up through her lashes to give me a sly smirk,
“I’m sure you’ll find someone who’s willing to slide one on for you in the future.”
I snorted reflexively at her insinuation. Meredith has been actively trying to convince me to find
someone. She’d send a few profiles of eligible mateless Alphas or Betas who came from oversees
every week. Once, she actually brought one to the pack house when I was down in the
torture/interrogation room. Imagine the shock on the poor man’s face when he saw me coming up from
the basement drenched in blood with a butcher’s apron around my neck. It’s safe to say I’ve never
seen a wolf run that fast in my life.
She was set on the whole “bringing my love life to life”, or so she says. She knew of my history with
mates and my family. She understands me, to say the least. Or well, she tries to. The only thing she
didn’t understand was why I didn’t want to get involved with someone else. Unlike her, my mate didn’t
want me. There’d be no betraying on my part if I chose to move on like he did with Hestia.
It’s not like I was saving myself for Landon, the man can di e for all I care, but I wasn’t keen on looking
for romance just yet. I wasn’t against the idea but now was not the time.
Besides, I doubt anyone would be interested in “The Hellhound”.
Ah yes.
My favorite nickname of all.

It was a play on the pack name but also quite scary to the ears. I honestly don’t know from which story
that one stemmed from, but it caught on. Noah would mess around with it, “accidentally” calling me that
when he told his mate, Mailia, about his day right in front of me. I inwardly grimaced when I
remembered the pups in the pack retelling the stories they
heard from our warriors.
The rogues were so scared!
They saw the Alpha and begged for mercy!
The hellhound is upon us!
As amusing as it was to see pups under the age of seven circling around pack territory calling out
Hellhound this, Hellhound that, it actually started getting old really quickly. Suc king in a breath, I gave
Meredith an apologetic look.
“Meredith, you know I’m not interested in that sort of stuff right now.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe held her hands up in mock surrender but failed to hide the smile on her face.
“All I’m saying is that you shouldn’t be so closed off on the idea. If someone who catches your interest
comes along, don’t be so quick to sh ut the door.”
With these last words, she got up and set the box on the bench. Without taking another look in my
direction she made her way out of the gym.
“Thank you.”
I said suddenly, twisting the ring around my finger. Meredith stopped in her step to listen but didn’t turn
around. She waited quietly for me to finish.
“…For everything.”
Meredith turned over her shoulder, a warm smile gracing her face as she stared at me. I always felt
such a deep connection to her since the moment I met her. I guess it was because she became
somewhat like a mother figure to me. She was always there to push me when I needed the push.
Always there to console me when I had those attacks until I learned how to control it.
She was there for everything.
Like Bentley was.
“Your welcome. Oh, by the way, I past by your Gamma on my way here. He seemed a little on edge,
mumbling about something. I suggest you go talk to him before the young lad rips.
his hair out.”
