GoodNovelChapter 42: Signed Alliance Astrid's POV Our conversation ended when someone knocked on the door.
"Cin," Alpha Everest spoke wearily. He walked back to his office table to meet the guest. "Alpha Everest!" I raised my head when I heard Giselle's voice.
"I heard what happened. How is your daughter? Are the guests from the Nightsong Pack all safe?" Giselle asked in an amicable voice as she walked to Alpha Everest's table.

"Everyone is safe, Lady Giselle. You do not have to worry. Is there anything I can help you with?" Giselle smiled and placed the papers she was holding on Alpha Everest's table. "These are the papers for the alliance. I was hoping you could sign it now. Killian had informedthat you've already read and agreed to everything." Alpha Everest forced a smile on his face as he looked up at Giselle. "That's true, but you've only just arrived. I haven't mentioned it because I was hoping you could go around the Pack first." "Actually, I'm not planning to stay long. I'm pregnant, and it's not good forto get tired. It's also so cold here. I'm not used to the cold," Giselle spoke without shame.
Alpha Everest fell quiet. His eyes blinked as he stared at Giselle in disbelief. "I-I thought you wanted to chere for a visit?" Alpha Everest asked him confusedly.
"I did. Your Pack is such a wonderful place," Giselle happily complimented out of nowhere when she saw how her words affected the Alpha.
"Killian and I will chere soon. We should surely visit this place once our baby is born," Giselle smiled while caressing her baby bump.
"So you're leaving?" Alpha Everest asked her again.
"N-Not yet," Giselle shook her hands, but that was what she was planning earlier. "I just chere to have the papers signed early." Giselle used her finger to push the paper closer to Alpha Everest. Alpha Everest was quiet as his gaze pondered over the papers for a long time.
I pulled my eyes when he sighed and reached for his pen. Alpha Everest had already made his decision. I've tried my best to talk him out of it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMy heart felt heavy, thinking how much I would disappoint Drystan with the news. Nova would surely be angry with this outcsolely because Giselle won against us.
I know it's not too late. I can just stand up and steal the pen from Alpha Everest's hand, but I don't want to be selfish. Alpha Everest is right. Choosing the Silvermoon Pack is the most logical decision. Their Pack would benefit more from an alliance with an established Pack like the Silvermoon Pack.
"I'm sorry, Lady Giselle. I can't." My eyes shot up to them when I heard Alpha Everest's words. I watched as Alpha Everest placed back his pen inside his table drawer.
"W-What?" Giselle stammered in surprise. "Why?" "I've changed my mind. I can't sign this alliance with you anymore. I will call Alpha Killian and explain everything to him. I give my apologies," Alpha Everest lowered his head in guilt.
"But you already agreed with everything. I chere because you wanted to sign with us-" "You can go back to your Pack now since I have no plans of signing with your Pack anymore," Alpha Everest spoke coldly.
Giselle clenched her fist. I could feel the anger radiating from her. "Is this because of those people from the Nightsong Pack? Did they talk you out of this?" Giselle scoffed. "Alpha, our Pack is way better than theirs. We can help you better than them!" "Lady Giselle, please leave my office now. Our conversation is done here. I would explain everything to Killian." "You shouldn't listen to them, Alpha Everest. The people there are opportunists and calculating individuals. They are very ambitious, and they try to steal what isn't rightfully theirs." I clenched my fist as Giselle continued to talk ill of us, although I was sure that she was referring to me. Content Belongs to "I'm sure you have heard, Alpha. The Alpha of the Nightsong Pack has once tried to steal the Alpha position from his older brother before." "I beg your pardon?!" I stood up and raised my voice when I heard the accusations she had made about Drystan. Giselle's heart almost leapt out of her chest when she realized that I'd been here the whole time. She looked atwith wide eyes like a deer caught in headlights.
"Take back what you've said! If Drystan really wanted to steal the Alpha position, it would be easier for him to steal the Alpha title from his brother than to raise his own Pack." Giselle scoffed. "No wonder why the two of you are so close. Both of you share the sattitude of being so ambitious and stealing what is not rightfully yours." "Enough!" Alpha Everest shouted. "I must remind you that you are in my office, and you are quarrelling in front oflike little children. Lady Giselle, you you are getting out of line. I can't tolerate you verbally harassing my guest. Please leave my Pack." "What?!" Giselle yelled at the Alpha angrily. "What did you say?"
