ALPHA DEREK II

Derek furrowed his eyebrows, his lips forming a thin line, mirroring Anthony's expression, after Agrip's latest declaration.

He was captured?

Derek shook his head, feeling a strange chill all over his body.

No wonder. He thought, referring to the matter of Agrip's long time in coming back to the pack.

He heard the other elders murmuring between themselves and sighed. They were probably waiting for him to question Agrip on what had really happened.

He would have agreed with them, but for some reason, he didn't find it okay at that point. He didn't know why, but he decided to trust his instincts this time around.

"That's…new, Agrip" He finally managed to stutter out, ignoring Anthony's raised eyebrows and the elders' look of unbelief. He would talk to his brother later.
