A Gamma's Revenge (Zalia) novel Chapter 384

Chapter 384
Maleah’s p.o.v.

“Pauline, I need a meeting with the team. Set it up for tomorrow night and make sure it is a secure location, we need to talk about my next targets.” I say after she has answered her phone and I know I will have the details for the meeting by the time I wake up in the morning. I place the tray with empty dishes on the small table outside my room and I place the “Do not disturb” sign on the door, hoping I can sleep in a little bit.

The persistent ringing of my phone wakes me in the morning and Fortune growls in the back of my head at the lack of respect, she hates being woken up by anything other than the sound of my alarm. I join Fortune in her growling when I see my Mother’s name on the caller-ID and instead of ignoring it I answer the call, “What the fuck, Mother? Do you have any idea what time it is?” I growl into the phone and I hear Alpha Bradley growling in the background.

“Tell that Mate of yours to shut it, you know I hate being woken up.” I say and I hear him growl even louder, “Sweetheart, we are in Albarr and we will be expecting you at one o’clock in our suite. I will send you the information of the hotel where we are staying.” She says. “Mother, I have a business meeting in two hours and I am not sure when I will be done, I will let you know if I can make it to lunch.” I reply and the next voice I hear belongs to Alpha Bradley.

“You will do as you are told, be here at one o’clock. No excuses.” He yells before he ends the call and I have laughing Lycan in my head, she really thinks that this is funny. “It is funny. He doesn’t seem to understand that an Alpha order doesn’t work on us, he seems to have forgotten we are an Assassin and an Alpha order doesn’t work on an Assassin.” Fortune says as she is still rolling around in my head.

I send Mack a message about my wake-up call and within ten minutes I get a call from an unknown number, “This is Maleah D’Angelo.” I answer. “Maleah, this is Dax. I will pick you up at your boutique and I will join you if you go to lunch with your Mother, no arguments.” I hear Alpha Dax say and I tell him I appreciate his offer, “I think Alpha Bradley will be really pissed off when he sees you with me, but he can’t deny you as an Alpha to accompany a Pack-member.” I respond.

“I don’t care what Alpha Bradley thinks about me coming along, I will tell him straight to his face I don’t trust him anywhere near you.” Alpha Dax says and Fortune is already looking forward to lunch, after discussing what time he will pick me up I break the connection. I get ready for my morning meeting with the two designers and Fortune tells me to wear my hair in a braid, she really wants to annoy our Mother.

“Hello, Stan. I heard you moved to Albarr last time I visited the store.” Alpha Dax says and I quickly learn that Stan worked at the store they always get their suits and tuxedos from. “Looks like we will have to take our business elsewhere, I got the impression that you quit because you didn’t like making suits anymore.” Alpa Dax continues.

Stan explains that he wasn’t allowed to design, that his employer told him his designs would never sell and that no one would give him a chance to sell his own designs. “I will get you your first order, but I think you need to talk to Maleah. She is designing the dresses for the Spring Ball and maybe the two of you can come up with the right outfits us males.” Alpha Dax says and from what I saw just a little while ago I know Stan will do just that.

I tell Stan I will show him my designs in the morning and after we said our goodbyes Alpha Dax and I walk out to his car. I am ready to face my Mother and Alpha Dipshit.
