Chapter 53: The Summit of the Alphas

Paul - The alpha summit

As I dress in my new suit, Laura watches me in the mirror. Something is still bugging me as to how she has handled the matter with Bogdan.

“Are you sure he’ll stop trying to kill me and kidnap you?” I repeat the question for a dozenth time.

“Humans, especially those with unstable minds, are easy to coerce.” She sighs. "I took care of Bogdan Badea. He’s not hurting anymore and has let go of his plan for vengeance. I was surprised when you gave him back his family business. He’ll surely move forward with his life now."

“Ok, I’ll end any talks about Bogdan here and now.”

My red tie rests on the edge of the chair. It has the same perfect shade of copper as Laura’s hair. I take it and start preparing myself for the meeting.

Laura approaches. She takes my hands off the tie. I smile and let her do it for me. Even though the knot she creates is a little crooked and much duller than my Windsor knot, I keep it.

Smirking, I watch Laura tilting her head.
