Chapter 56

We drove through the City, but when Valen didn’t turn onto his territory, I glanced over at him. Wondering where we were going when he stopped at the police station on the City’s main drag. “You’re doing this now?” I asked as he unclipped his seat belt.

“Yes, Officer Richard’s mind-linked and said his son and Amber are still here. I told him to hold them until I got here,” Valen said before getting out of the car. I rushed to unclip my seatbelt and jumped out, and he started walking up the steps. My heart raced in my chest at the thought of what he would do.

“You said you wouldn’t hurt him,” I gushed, racing after him and gripping his arm. He kept walking into the building, and some officers opened the door for him as they came out. They tipped their hats to him and continued to their patrol cars. I shook my head and looked at Valen.

“I said I won’t, though I bloody want to. But Amber is pan of your father’s pack, and Micha is joining it. So if you want her to keep her mouth shut, I need to speak to them and Officer Richards.” Valen explained, and I sighed a breath of relief.

Valen didn’t bother speaking to anyone, he just navigated his way around like he owned the place. He probably did; I wouldn’t put anything out of his price range. When we came to a locked-off area. Valen tapped on the perspex window, and the officer, who looked half asleep, jolted upright in his seat, nearly falling out of it. He quickly reached over and hit a button, and Valen opened the door and held it open for me. He then grabbed my hand, leading me down the long corridor before I came to some holding cells. Officer Richard leaned against one, and he stood straighter as Valen entered. Baring his neck to Valen. Amber sat in the chair behind a desk and glared at me. Valen growled at her, and she dropped her head quickly.

“Alpha, I have spoken to him, and he has reassured me it won’t happen again,” Officer Richard said while shooting a glare at Amber.

“No, it won’t. I want them both kept here until after the Alpha meeting,” Valen said before turning to Amber.
