Chapter 138: He’s My Boy
[Patrick’s P.O.V.]
Once everyone had gathered in Luna’s office, I told them about the call I received. And just like me, they were shocked by what they heard. It didn’t make much sense. This was indeed beyond common sense.
“Are you saying that the real Alpha called and texted you saying that the Alpha with us here is a fake and that he will be dealt with tonight?”
“Yes.”
“I can’t believe it at all. Even TV dramas don’t have plots as ridiculous as these.” Jane held her forehead and sat on the sofa listlessly.
“There are too many things that make this quite suspicious. We can’t be sure that the person who called you is Edward. Maybe this is a conspiracy,” said Uncle Leon.
“We need to guard Alfa Tonight. If what that person said is true, the ‘Alpha’ with us will meet his misfortune tonight.” Ad was straightforward as usual.
“Gamma Ad, please give the order to raise the security of the pack tonight. I will guard outside Alpha’s room with Dylan unsuspiciously. If Emily wants to secretly kill Alpha, I will catch her immediately,” said I.
Although Alpha had been unusually muddle-headed recently, he was still the Alpha of the pack. ” ” I might not like the change him right now, but there was no way I was letting Emily hurt him tonight.
But what if that call is real? Clyde had confirmed that Emily smelled like Alpha. I had someone trace the call I received that day and they reported that it did not come from a neighboring state. Was the real Alpha under house arrest somewhere else for some reason?
But for his safety, I didn’t call him back. Emily couldn’t have done this on her own. Someone else must have been helping her with a bigger plan in mind. Unfortunately, all of these had happened in such a short span of time that I hadn’t had a chance to check out the place where the call had come from.
Just then, my phone buzzed as a message came in.
The message was from the man who claimed to be Alpha, but it simply had a simple sentence.
‘Catch the imposter and imprison him in the dungeon tonight.’

When I showed the message to the others, everyone fell silent. Such a simple sentence dealt such a heavy blow to the others.
“Give me the phone,” said Alpha Leon to me. I didn’t know what he was going to do but I handed it to him anyway.
‘Do you have a mole on your left palm?’
That was what Alpha Leon replied.
“Why would you ask such a question?” asked Luna Taylor asked.
“So, is there a mole on Alpha’s left palm?” asked Ad.
“As his mother, I’m very sure that there isn’t one,” said Luna Taylor said firmly while Alpha Leon remained silent.
Time passed and there was still no reply. I realized that Alpha Leon had basically asked a trick question because there was only a 50% chance of answering it correctly. The person on the other end of the line claiming to be Alpha must be thinking about how best to respond.
As time went on, my disappointment grew stronger. The longer he took to respond, the more it meant that he might not be who he claimed to be. He might just be using a voice changer or something while Emily might simply be secretly meeting Alpha in the castle perhaps having an affair right before Luna left. It was all too confusing, but there was no dispute that our pack was being targeted.
Just as everyone was looking dejected, my phone rang again.
‘Father, I thought you had forgotten that you hit me with the pen.’
When Alpha Leon read the reply, his eyes were filled with unconcealable excitement and surprise, but also a little guilt.
“It’s him! My God! Only Edward and I know about this! That’s my boy!”
“You hit Edward with a pen?” Luna Taylor looked at Alpha Leon in disbelief.
“Yes, I’m sorry. But this happened a long time ago when he was still a little boy. I had been reading documents and he was being quite mischievous. I simply wanted to wave to dismiss him from the room but my grip on the pen in my hand had somehow gotten loose. The pen flew straight at him and pierced his palm. There had been a black spot there for many years. It’s not a mole. I’m sorry, Taylor. But I definitely didn’t mean to hurt our son.”
“Jesus! It’s a good thing you didn’t stab him in the eye! Men are so unreliable around children!”
I cleared my throat and interrupted their conversation just in time. I didn’t want a conversation about how responsible men are around children when Diana was present. After all, we had more important things to do.
Even though it’s a little secret that Alpha got hurt, it had played such an important role in our current predicament. But I had one last test for this Alpha right now. I couldn’t wait any longer.
I left the others in the office and headed for the infirmary.
Then, I returned to the office, grabbed Ad, and headed for Alpha’s room next.
When ‘Alpha’ opened the door, I threw a straight punch into his face. He had no time to dodge as his nose started to bleed.
He looked at me with anger and surprise.
“Patrick, are you f*cking crazy?”
