*** This is a spoiler about how Leland looks since I am impatient to show him to you all XD. Obviously, you can skip this if you don't want to know. ***

THE ALPHA

The two scouts went to their headquarters around two days away from Hauntingen. It was a mansion located on the top of the hill and surrounded by thorny plants.

The property looked grey and cold and gave off the vibe of being haunted. The pack liked it that way because it kept people off.

The villagers down the valley thought the mansion was owned by an old and wicked witch who could turn them all into animals if they bothered her. So, they always tried to avoid going around the area.

When the two scouts entered the big hall in the middle of the mansion, they could see their leader standing by the window. His back facing them. If they didn't know him in person, they might even think he was a statue from how his body was stiff and didn't make any movement.

His white long hair went down to his shoulders, only added to the coldness he exuded. It actually reminded people of an ice statue.

The man was tall and burly. Everything about him screamed power and strength. His muscles protruded from under his black shirt and his gesture looked overbearing. Even though it was a cold night in autumn, he didn't seem bothered by the low temperature and didn't feel the need to wear a coat, unlike his people.

The two grey werewolves transformed back into their human forms.

"Alpha!" Duncan and his companion panted as they fell to their knees and bent to the silent man. "We have the news!"

The white-haired man didn't bother to turn around to acknowledge their presence. However, they could hear his authoritative voice when he talked calmly. "Speak."

"Most of the humans are easily deceived and cannot detect that we're werewolves," the first man said. "However, we encountered someone who realized what we were when we inquired of the people who lived in the Blackwoods."

"The Village Elder of Hauntingen knew that we were werewolves!" Duncan burst.

An icy silence from their Alpha had Duncan clearing his throat and bowing his head in apology along with his companion. They did not want to gather the wrath of their leader and cause any trouble within the pack.

"Alpha… we also have another news and…" Duncan swallowed. "I think you will like this one."

"What of it?" Leland's voice was cold and blunt.

Duncan hesitated along with his companion. "We met the woman that you have been looking for, based on her descriptions, but she did not seem to have any clue to her roots. We have also noticed the scent of another alpha werewolf on her. I am unsure which pack."

"What did you say?"

Finally, the pack members could see an expression of their leader because the man suddenly turned around and looked at the two scouts with narrowed eyes. He had always been handsome, but the man never smiled and they never saw him happy.

His blue and green eyes always looked unfazed and expressionless, like the deep sea, hiding a million secrets. They could never know what he was thinking and he was not one to share.

However, today, they suddenly saw a very faint smile on his lips and that made him look so charming. The pack members were dumbfounded. Not only that faint smile, but they also couldn't recognize the glint in his eyes.

What was that…? Joy? Relief? It looked a bit like happiness.

He was in a very good mood, all of a sudden.

From Missrealitybites:

Leland will show up at around chapter 40-ish. Why? Because Nicholas and Sophie need time for themselves to develop their relationship. So, it will take some time for all the main characters to meet. I hope you'll be patient ^^.

,m By the way, as I said, this book is inspired by the reverse harem comic "Beauty And The Beast" where the female lead has 4 husbands.

If you read the book, you'll know my favorite husband is Winston, the white tiger.. hahaha. Why? Because he is really strong, kind, handsome, and he also has white long hair, which I really like - you know, like Geralt from "The Witcher".

PS: Thank you, Despina, for gifting a dragon to Sophie and Nic today.

Ahh... this makes me want to publish more, but I have to sleep so I can write properly later (it's 2 am my time). I'll do so in the morning. xx
