The Headmaster Alpha's Mate
The Headmaster Alpha’s Mate Chapter 39

Zander stretched out his aching muscles. He had personally escorted Nicki’s father to his private airfield and accompanied him to Charles De Gaulle Airport in France, to ensure he caught the next flight to Tokyo. As soon as he saw the flight take off, he returned to Scotland. He did not like leaving his mate or the mess behind for the four-hour trip, but he had to ensure the man was definitely heading back to Japan for his plan to work. It was now ten at night, but he headed directly for the school, wanting to spend time with Chloe. He needed to work fast to ensure he could obtain all of Nicki’s father’s money and give it to her mother and having Chloe with him would keep him calm and not have him distracted by worrying about her.

As he entered the school, Lacey was waiting for him.

“The accounts are open in the pack bank, here are the details. Their debit cards will be ready by tomorrow. Cheryl has a restriction on her bank card for the account she shared with her husband. She could only spend amounts of £30 or less per day. He is notified by text each time she makes a transaction and where it was made.” Lacey began.

Zander nodded, then walked into his office.

“Where is Chloe?” he asked, needing her to be with him. His anger was not fully sedated until he made sure that poor excuse for a man was penniless.

“In your office, she gave up her bed for Nicki’s mother, and is currently trying to sleep on your couch.” Lacey smiled.

“Where is Josh?” Zander asked, although he could guess the answer.

“Encamped outside Nicki’s door, with a sleeping bag and pillow.” Lacey laughed.

“Okay, ask him to come down, and can you see if Nicki and her mother are awake? Please, I need to speak with them both. Have Ethan come to my office in half an hour?” Zander ordered, then walked into his office.

Chloe lay on his sofa, a blanket draped over her, she was still dressed in her uniform, although she had removed her blazar and school tie. As the door opened Chloe immediately sat up, as Zander strode towards her and held her in his arms. Sniffing her neck, he instantly began to calm down, as she kissed his cheeks in response.

“I was worried about you?” Chloe breathed out.

“I am sorry princess, but I travelled to France to make sure that bastard got on the flight to Japan. We have a twelve-hour window of opportunity, so we must move fast.” Zander partially explained.

“Okay, how can I help?” Chloe asked without even questioning the reason why.

“By sitting on my lap whilst I work, to keep me calm, but first I need to speak with Nicki and her mother. I need as much information on Mr Davis as I possibly can get.” Zander growled.

Picking Chloe up bridal style, he walked to his desk and placed her on his lap, then logged onto his computer.

“We need to tell Mrs Davis what we are, Zander.” Chloe sighed, it would be a difficult conversation to have with anyone, let alone a woman who was still traumatised by the day, and her life’s events.

“I know, it is not ideal to tell her right now, but yes, she needs to know.” Zander agreed, then placed a soft k**s on Chloe’s lips.

Josh knocked on the office door, and entered. His hair was a mess and his eyes slightly sunken and red, it was evident this strong Alpha had wept for Nicki, and that made him even stronger in Chloe’s opinion.

“Nicki and her mother are on their way. Lacey thought it best I came down first, as it might seem creepy to Mrs Davis if she found me sleeping in the hallway outside their door.” Josh let out a deep breath and sat on the sofa.

“That bastard, some of the things he did to them, Zander, we should have ripped his throat out!” Josh exclaimed.

“Oh, do not worry, I have plans for that bastard,” Zander growled. He would make him suffer, stuck in a foreign country thousands of miles away with no job, no home, and no money, and no way to return to England.

Nicki and Cheryl walked into the office; Lacey followed behind.

“Do you need me, Zander?” she asked.

“No, get some rest, I will shout if I need anything.” Zander smiled at his beta female.

“Take a seat”, Zander motioned to the chair, smiling at Cheryl. Josh was unable to control himself and instantly pulled Nicki onto his lap and sniffed her neck.

Cheryl looked at her daughter, then Chloe sat on the headmaster’s knee, but he seemed younger without his glasses, and she smiled slightly.

“I know this looks inappropriate, but it really isn’t. We have something to explain to you, but first let me assure you, nobody will hurt you here.” Zander began softly.

Cheryl nodded, then looked at Josh sniffing Nicki’s neck again, and she bowed her head.

“If you are going to tell me you are werewolves, then I already know,” Cheryl sighed wistfully.

Nicki gaped at her mother in shock.

“What? How?” she asked.

“20 years ago, I was camping in the lakes, I met a man, who turned out to be my mate. He was amazing, everything I could want and more. He told me about being a shifter and took me to his pack. Unfortunately, the Alpha in his pack told him he must reject me, as I was only human, and would be a weakness. If he did not do as he ordered, the Alpha said he would be cast out and become an enemy of the pack. The punishment would be death for both of us. We both sobbed and pleaded, but it was no use. The next day, Oli took me beyond the pack grounds, to a human town, and in order to save me he rejected me. The pain was almost unbearable. You see he mated and marked me before going to the pack.” Cheryl explained, then pulled down her shirt to show a faint mark on her skin.

“I was devastated, I never got over it. A year later I met Tony, and he filled the gap, not a lot, but it was easier, but that all changed the moment we got married and he found out I was not the virginal bride he thought I should have been.” Cheryl continued.

“So, I know that Josh is Nicola’s mate, I worked it out when she referred to him as such. It was confirmed today when he began to shift. Tony will not have noticed; he is too full of his own self-importance to have even seen.” Cheryl smiled at her daughter.

“Oh Mum!” Nicki exclaimed, moving from Joshua’s knee to hug her mother.

“The Crescent Moon pack, and Silverback Pack, do not follow those outdated views of the Ullswater Pack. We believe Mates are fated for a reason, and rather than weaken a pack, they make it stronger, human or not.” Zander smiled at Cheryl.

“I just want Nicola safe, and even though Oli was forced to reject me, I have never been so loved or safe before or since. That is why I finally found my voice when Mrs Black questioned me, I felt safe.” Cheryl smiled.

A knock on the door disturbed them, as Ethan walked in.

“Hey Headmaster, you sent for me.” Ethan smiled at Chloe and Nicki.

“Yes, can you please heal Nicki’s face for us. Her mother is aware of who and what we are.” Zander ordered.

“Yes Alpha.” Ethan smiled, then walked over to Nicki, and placed his hand on her bruised cheek.

Cheryl watched in awe as the mark on her daughter’s face faded, then appeared on Ethan’s face before disappearing without a trace.

“Thanks’ Ethan, I owe you one.” Nicki smiled

“Luna Nicki, you owe me a few, especially for that gross zit you had me get rid of”, Ethan laughed.

“Luna?” Cheryl asked.

“Yes, Josh is the future Alpha of the Silverback Pack, I am the future Luna. Zander is the Alpha of the Crescent moon pack, and Ultima Wolf of both packs, Chloe is his Luna.” Nicki smiled.

“Thank you, Ethan, you can return to your dorm.” Zander dismissed him.

“Yes Alpha”, Ethan bowed his respect, then left the office.

Picking up his telephone, Zander called the human resources department of the Japanese company he owned.

“Yui, this is Zander Colton, I need you to do the following immediately please” Zander said.

“Hai, koruton-san” Yui answered.

“Have all funds from Mr Anthony Davis’ expenses account transferred to the number I will email you, Terminate his employment with immediate effect. Have someone go to the company house he is living in and remove all his belongings, leave them in the street, then change the locks. Any wages owed to Mr Davis have placed in the account I will send you along with the expenses. Is he paid into an account in Japan, or the UK?” Zander instructed.

“The UK kourton-san” Yui answered.

“Good, make sure this is completed within two hours, then email me back to confirm,” Zander said before putting down the phone.

Zander sent the email, then brought up Nicki and Cheryl’s bank website.

“Okay, so first off we need to access his accounts. Now you have a joint account with limited access, so I need to log in as him. Do you have your account number and sort code?” Zander asked Cheryl.

“Yes, here is my debit card, it is on the bottom.” Cheryl nodded, handing over her bank card.

“Okay, so it is asking for his mother’s maiden name.” Zander looked at Cheryl.

“Patterson” Cheryl answered.

“Good, now it wants the make of his first car,” Zander asked.

“Ford Escort.” Cheryl smiled; happy she was able to help.

“Okay, so lastly they want his pass code. Do you have any clue about a 6 digit number he would use?”

Cheryl paled; she had no clue.

“S..sorry, no.” She instantly bowed her head, waiting for a rebuff.

“Cheryl, you are safe.” Josh said to his future mother-in-law, offering her a smile of reassurance.

Cheryl nodded slightly.

“The only thing I can think of is his old phone number from when he lived with his parents.” Cheryl added, but she was not sure she was correct.

“Did that begin with a 5 mum?” Nicki asked.

“Yes 5141437” Cheryl answered.

“Okay, I saw him once accessing his laptop. The number began with a 5 but that was a four digit number,” Nicki offered.

“Right well, it is a start”, Zander said, they had only three attempts to get the number correct or they would be locked out for 24 hours.

Zander typed in 514143, but the number didn’t work.

He shook his head,

“What about 141437”, Chloe asked.

Nodding, Zander tried the number again.

“s**t, this is our last chance,” Zander sighed in frustration. He needed to get into the account to make sure that horrible excuse of a man could not return to the UK for a very long time.

“Any other number do you think it could be?” Josh gently asked.

“No, that is all I can think of, I am sorry,” Cheryl sighed.

“Don’t worry mum, I am sure we can replace another way.” Nicki smiled at her mother.

“What about reversing the number to 734141?” Chloe asked.

Zander looked at his mate. If it was wrong, they would be locked out.

“Okay, well here goes nothing.” Zander said.

“Wait!” Nicki shouted.

Zander looked at her quizzically.

“When we were on holiday, the room had a safe, he locked our passports in it, remember Mum?” Nicki said.

“Yes, but he did not give us the number Nicki.” Cheryl shrugged.

“He did, me, he was drunk at the bar, and needed more cash. He was so hammered he sent me to get some money out of the safe. I remember it, because it was the only time he ever asked anything like that.” Nicki smiled.

“Okay, so do we go for the reverse number or this new number?” Josh asked.

“The new one, he would go for a number he used all the time if it was for a safe.” Chloe shrugged, it made sense to her.

“I agree.” Josh nodded.

“Okay, what is the number, Nicki?” Zander asked.

“881203”
