Alpha's Regret After Her Rebirth (Hannah and Noah)

I tried to keep my expression neutral, but inside, my mind was racing. This footage was invaluable. With it, there was no way the Council could ignore Alvin's crimes.

David leaned back, a smug look on his face. "Of course, I could give you this evidence, even testify in front of the Council for you. But we have a history, don't we?" My eyes narrowed. "If you expect me to sleep with you in exchange for-"

"Nothing like that, I assure you, Alpha Hannah," David stopped me with his hand held up. "All I ask is for land; if you give me that sweet little chunk of your northern land that sits on the border between Darkmoon and Silvermoon, then I will help you. And perhaps we can put everything else behind us as well."

I knew the land that David was referring to; Darkmoon had been trying to get it for years. My father always

wanted.

But Alvin was also the one last threat to my daughter that I krfew of. And this evidence that David had in his possession could be the one thing to put him behind bars, where he couldn't hurt anyone except himself.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

I turned to Viona, speaking in a low voice. "What do you think?"

She frowned, considering. Her eyes darted between me and David, weighing our options. "The evidence is highly valuable, and having him testify would be a huge boon," she whispered. "But giving land to David might make him think he can ask for more in the future... It's a dangerous precedent to set."

I nodded, my mind whirling with possibilities and potential consequences. The land David wanted wasn't exactly crucial to Silvermoon-it was just a large swathe of forest-but the idea of giving any part of my territory to him after what he'd done to me made my skin crawl. And yet, the chance to finally bring Alvin to justice...

Finally, I turned back to David. "Here is my offer. As a one-time thing, I'll give you the land you want and even a little extra on top, on one condition: you never ask to expand your borders into Silvermoon territory again. This is it, David. One deal, and then we're done. David's eyes lit up at the mention of extra land, but he remained silent, waiting for me to continue.

"And there's one more thing," I added, my voice firm. "You leave Jen alone. Clear her criminal record in Darkmoon and don't try to come for her. She is a member of Silvermoon now, and she is rehabilitating herself and no longer drug dealing. She gets a clean slate. Understood?"

David leaned in to confer with his Beta, their whispers too low for me to hear.

After a moment that felt like an eternity, he straightened and nodded. "Very well. I'll take the offer. It seems we both get what we want."

Relief washed over me, but I kept my expression neutral. I couldn't let him see how much this meant to me. "Good. We'll have our lawyers draw up the paperwork. I want everything in writing, notarized and binding before the trial in a month." David stood, offering me a thin smile that didn't reach his eyes. "Of course. I wouldn't have it any other

way." He extended his hand, and after a moment's hesitation, I took it. It was all I could do to resist the urge to hit him again.

When he finally released my hand, his smile widened. He snapped his fingers and his security team rose as one, brushing past me like a cold wind.

"See you at the trial, Alpha Hannah," David called over his shoulder before slipping out of the lounge.

Only once he was gone did I allow myself to sink down into the chair beside me. And despite my shock, my wariness...

I couldn't help but smile.
