The Legacy of the Alpha King: Hiding his Secret Twins
Chapter 164 by Ebony Woods

I don’t leave the alpha home heading to training feeling any better about the situation.

I didn’t like keeping things from Evelyn, whatever it is that I know. Which isn’t a lot.

But I know keeping things hidden in the past has led both her and the children into danger, even Reuben. And it doesn’t sit well with me, not to tell her.

I had made it through training but a voice in my head was niggling at me to tell her. This seemed too important not to say.

Reuben thinks that Odin’s body was cremated but from what Nate was insinuating. His body was rotting in the caves, the caves he ordered for Red Stone warriors to fill in.

No matter how much I got on with Nate, I had to remember that Evelyn was my Alpha, not Reuben and I had to report to her.

The whole debacle with the rogue situation blew up in my face. She was unprepared and I had failed her in being the Silver Moon beta in not telling her what I knew at the time.

My job was to share the information, all of the information and then it was her job to decide what bits to use and what bits to push aside.

“Come in.” She calls out as I knock on her office door.

“Noah what are you doing knocking.” She smiles up at me as I enter the room. It was good to see the pregnancy vitamins working on her.

The baby not taking them directly from her. She had a warm pregnant glow about her now.

“Are you okay?” She asks, her eyebrows frowning as I close the door and start to pace around her office.

“I have something to tell you, but I don’t know if what I am telling you is the right thing to do. I don’t even know what I am telling you, but I need you to not act upon it. To not say anything.”

“Noah, sit down you’re making me nervous.” She gently orders at me, my wolf taking a seat, as his alpha has commanded.

“Something happened at the Sickle Peak pack. When you and Reuben left the caves and headed out in the cars.”

“What? What happened?”

“I need you to not say anything to Reuben, he doesn’t know. Nate is keeping it from him.” I sigh, my eyes closing…regretful already at betraying Nate.

She seems to ponder my words for a moment before silently nodding her heading at me to continue.

“The cave. I didn’t re-enter. But Nate and some of their warriors did.”

“To retrieve Odin’s body. To cremate it?”

“That’s the thing. They returned but without the body. Nate commanded that the cave be boarded up, filled in to prevent anyone re-entering it.”

“So his body is in there still? Why didn’t Nate follow Reuben’s orders?”

“As a beta its almost impossible to deny an alpha’s command, and why would Nate anyway? He would have followed it through, of course he would have done. Which meant something happened, something happened to the body.”

“You’re losing me.” I felt just as confused at my own explanation. Evelyn even more so as her head enters her hands, she starts to rub at her temples.

“If the body wasn’t removed from the cave, it is still in the cave? Decompossing?” She states slowly looking back up at me.

“Yes, that’s what I thought. But then I’ve had reports in the hospital of some of the warriors that entered the caves having panic attacks or self medicating with stolen drugs.”

“Stealing drugs?”

“I questioned Nate but he just told me to leave it. That Reuben had been through so much already, that he and you need the break.”

“He’s right. Don’t mention this again. The warriors that have been having panic attacks, I want you to make sure they get the right access to treatment. For the ones stealing and self medicating, I want names. I don’t condone theft but these are our friends and they clearly need help. We will sort out a course of action together.”
