Chapter 127 No One Else
Kirby’s POV
A political marriage?
My expression darkened as I lifted my gaze to meet his. “She won’t agree to that.”

Especially not if I’m the one involved. If Leslie had ever been open to a purely strategic alliance, she wouldn’t have approached me under another name. What she wanted was never just a contract without feelings.
“Do you really want to sit back and watch her end up with another Alpha?” Marcus scoffed coldly. “Do you realize what a blow that would be to Crimson Moon Pack?”
“There may be a few Alphas out there stronger than you, Kirby–but not many. And whoever Leslie chooses, if it’s not you, then we’re the ones who end up looking like fools. There’s nothing to gain and everything to lose.”
He leaned forward, voice sharp and cutting.
“I don’t like that woman either. But with the kind of power and bloodline she has behind her, I’m more than willing to let go of past grievances and ept her again. That’s how valuable this is.”
My expression froze.
Watch her marry someone else?
“She’s going to be with another man…”
Lance let out a low, pained howl deep inside me. Just the thought of it made him feel suffocated.
There were always men around Leslie–hovering, scheming, trying to get close. But I’d never once believed she’d actually settle for any of them.
Still… if she did….
The idea alone made my brows knit together in an ugly scowl.
I couldn’t stand it.
No. Absolutely not.
Marcus watched me in silence, his eyes hard and calcting.

“If Leslie refuses, then we’ll find someone else. Another Alpha woman from a top Pack. Someone who can match Rogue Pack’s strength. It’s the only way to counter the threat Lars and his wolves pose.”
My expression turned stormy.
The thought of being tied to someone else filled me with disgust.
“No,” I said coldly, looking up at him with eyes full of warning. “I don’t need a political marriage. And I don’t want to hear another word about Leslie. I’ll handle it myself.”
I had no intention of letting things between me and Leslie get any worse than they already
were.
And as for any other woman–I didn’t even want to think about it.
I didn’t wait for his response. I turned on my heel and walked out of the room.
Slyvana’s POV
I’d been waiting downstairs the whole time, expecting some major fallout from upstairs. I heard the sound of something smashing not long after Kirby went in–a teacup, maybe—but after that, nothing.
I didn’t dare sneak up and listen in.
So when Kirby finally came back down, I rushed up to him with a bright smile.
“That b*tch Leslie totally set you up, didn’t she? I bet you got chewed out because of her again. You can’t keep being so nice to her. She doesn’t appreciate it–she just thinks Crimson Moon Pack is easy to bully-”
Kirby’s eyes narrowed dangerously.
The killing intent in that top–tier Alpha aura of his locked onto me like a freezing de.
“Slyvana,” he said, voice low and venomous. “How many times do I have to warn you not to stir up trouble?”
I froze on the spot.
“I–I didn’t mean to…”
“Did you apologize like I told you to?” he snapped.
I flinched. My mouth opened, but nothing came out.

“If I hear one more word about you provoking Leslie,” he said icily, “you’re out. I’ll kick you out of Crimson Moon Pack myself.”
He didn’t give me time to reply. He just walked off, leaving me standing there frozen in ce, drenched in cold sweat.
