Chapter 4

Adrian’s POV

I shoot him a look, he knows that look. Loosen up on moon? The girl needs supervision always, she is recklessly graceful. I clench my teeth, “I’ve already lost three of my sisters because I didn’t take care of them as I should have and that should never be the case with her, besides she’s an entertainer. Imagine your day without her.”

He pauses as if searching for an answer, then his lips stretch into a smile. “Crap, just like this contract!” He snorts.

We spend another solid two hours working on the peace treaties and so much more bullshit written inside the hundred files we’ve analyzed today. Stretching in his seat, Santiago kicks my foot, “Okay so blue is the burn pile and yellow is the ones we’ve approved and signed. I will have someone send them.” He says rising.

“Where are you going?” I yawn.

He cracks his knuckles, his gaze shifting from the door to me. “The party moon was raving about. Are you coming?”

I take a second to think it over before I kick off my seat. “Sure why not I need to blow off some steam.”

He grins wider, his green eyes looking greener, Santiago is too fucking pretty if you ask me, he has those facial features only a surgeon can make and he loathes it. Stretching out his feet he snickers, “Great! There will be more than enough girls desperate for a fuck to brag about.”

I can’t help but laugh, yes women are desperate for power cock. I suck in a breath and smile, “As usual.”

We both leave my office at the same time, I take a moment to shower once more before heading out, it’s a long drive to the event. My phone buzzes with a text from Santiago.

Beta: All done, but take your time princess.

*smiley emoji*

Alpha: You think you’re funny, but you’re not.

I slide my phone in my pocket before heading out to Mirabelle’s room. I need to check in on her on a daily more hourly basis. My mother is travelling her life away with her girlfriends and I’m in charge of Mirabelle, considering my elder brother Martin is away she’s my headache 24/7 and something about my sister, she finds pleasure in rebelling against me. I knock twice before she opens it.

My eyes darted all over her body, checking for injuries and searching for lies in her eyes. “I was about to break this goddamn door down. How many times have I told you to open when I call, or at least answer me!”

Stepping aside she crosses her arms on her chest, “You know Alpha Adrian, you need a chill pill you’re too grumpy and I didn’t know it was you.”

She’s lying, her instincts are way too good, she can smell me from a mile away. I don’t know what lie she has up her sleeve, but I’m not buying it or checking it, I have had a long day. “Tiago and I are about to leave, Michelle will be checking in on you and Racheal so don’t try anything funny, behave yourself and tell Racheal to behave as well.”

“Unbelievable!” She exclaims dropping her arms, “You want an eighteen-year-old to babysit? And me? I’m seventeen Adrian, I don’t need your puppets babysitting me!”

“Well my pack my rules.” I tell her walking away.

When I leave her unsupervised she either gets high and wasted or gets herself kidnapped, it was a one-time thing but that shit triggered something in me that I didn’t like. I know she likes to go out but her room has everything girls her age like, if she wanted I’d put a fridge up there too. I will never understand why she complains about my character. I have the character it takes to run a successful and powerful pack.

Exhibit A: Midnight Saints Pack, this pack is worshipped by other packs.

Walking into the parking lot I meet two of my pack doctor’s, Michelle and Bianca.

They bow their heads as a sign of respect and greeting, I nod my head and offer a compliment in acknowledgment.

They carry on to where they are going. I found Santiago waiting by the BMW X7 I bought online over a month ago. It arrived while we were working today.

“Oh my aren’t you a sight for Alpha’s sore eyes.” I grin, referring to the car.

“I know.” He claps, giving a Cheshire grin.

I flip him off and look at the car, “I was talking about this baby.” I tap the hood of the car.

His hand comes to his chest, in a very dramatic movie scene type of way, “I admit I’m a little hurt.”

“Keys?”

He nods to the car, “They’re inside.”

I begin to circle the car, taking her in. The beautiful paint, the way it shines, I can’t not smile, “Wow.” I swipe my hands over the number plate ‘Moon 4373’.

“Are you going to make out with this car or lose to me in your new car.” He teases.

Closing the book of car names I have in my head, I turn to him, “Oh, you’re on Beta. I’m going to mop the floor with you and Lexi.” I smirk. Lexi is his car now I know you’re wondering who names their cars? Well we do. And I’m thinking this one is Bella, because she is fucking gorgeous.

I get into my car and wait for Santiago to get into his. When he does he hoots to let me know he’s good to go. Santiago lets me win, like he often does and trust me it’s not a good look on my alpha status. “You know letting me win is degrading me.”

He gasps, “No, I didn’t let you win. You’re getting good at driving.”

“Yea right.” I snort.
