Alpha Alvaro“Ximena, are you in heat?” I asked and she didn’t say a word for a few seconds. “N… No.” She answered, staring ahead like she was checking the rain.“You can tell me…”“I’m not!” She snapped through gritted teeth and I smiled. She was definitely in heat and I could tell she was trying her best to hide it but with the weather, it was difficult to conceal such a great need.“It’s okay, it’s a completely normal thing…”“Is this why you came here? Because you knew I’d be in heat very soon and you think you’ll have a chance with me? Let me tell you, you’re mistaken…” She was still speaking when I pulled her into my arms swiftly, letting my nostrils get filled with her scent.That was all it took to ignite fire inside of Alejandro and seeing she was in heat, her scent was musky and erotically pleasing but I would never do anything to her.“Trust me, I won’t do anything to you… not in this state and not now.” I added and she glanced at me with a frown.“Shhh, just stay here and
Ximena“Thank you so much for yesterday, Alpha.” I muttered to the alpha who was watching a few guards train and he grunted a response.I began walking towards the water dispenser, it was scorching and I noticed Mark walking behind me.“Are you following me?” I asked as I filled a disposable cup with water while he did the same.“Not really, I’m thirsty.” He replied and I nodded.“I overheard you telling the Alpha thank you, did anything happen?” He asked and I frowned, he was trespassing.“You’re prying into my private life, Mark.” I replied and his face went soft. “I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to— I was just concerned about your safety…”“He’s my mate, Mark, he can’t hurt me.” I replied and he exhaled. “You’re ready to acknowledge him as your mate? After all he did?” Mark demanded, his voice filled with slight fury.“My personal life is none of your business, Mark.” I replied coldly and he backed away a little.“I’m sorry, I don’t mean to piss you off, it’s just that we’re friends an
Ximena Today we decided to visit the training center. It was concluded that we couldn’t continue using the pack house to train since it didn’t have most of the facilities we wanted. I had a small smile on my face as I drove into the training center, it was my first time seeing it and it was damn huge and beautiful. “It looks nice, it can’t be compared to that of the Shadow pack but it’s okay.” Mark mumbled beside me and I stared at him with a frown, wondering why he was comparing both packs now. “Why are you comparing? What matters is that we get a place to train and after training, we conquer the rogues and any other pack that wants to attack us.” I emphasized and he nodded with a shrug. “But have you thought about us leaving? I mean we’ve been here for over a month now, soon we’ll wrap things up and leave.” He sounded like it was gonna be tomorrow and I felt a jab in my heart, I hadn't thought about leaving and I didn’t want to. “We'll cross that bridge when we get there, for n
Ximena“Let’s head back to the elevator, what’s wrong?” I asked as I put a little distance between us. He wrapped his hand around mine tightly, taking the lead first as he walked towards the elevator cautiously.We tried to open the elevator but it seemed like the whole power supply had been cut off and this came as a huge shock to us because the pack had constant electricity, it was only a major issue that could cause power outage or if someone intentionally cut off the light but this was a far guess because we were the only one in the training center.“Call the beta or anybody.” I suggested and he nodded, whipping his phone out of his pocket and he frowned heavily when he realized he had a very low battery.“Where’s your phone?” He asked. “I left it in the car, I thought I wouldn’t be spending time inside.” I replied, blushing slightly as I tried not to show any emotions.“I’ll send a text to him now and try calling if we can…”“I’m trying to mindlink my brothers but it’s not going
Ximena“Ximena— Wake up.” I heard the softest whisper whisper as I peeled my eyes open sluggishly, a frown settling on my face as I groaned drowsily.“What?” I asked with confusion, unable to register where I was or why I was being woken up.“It’s me, Alvaro, the power supply has been restored, let’s go.” He explained and I nodded, understanding his words instantly and a small frown appeared on my face as I rose with his help.“Are you okay? Should I carry you?” He demanded and my eyes snapped open in astonishment.“No.” I glared at him and he concealed a smile as we walked away. We entered the elevator to see Dhruv waiting for us.“What happened? How did the power go out and why did it take so long for you to fix it?” Alvaro demanded immediately.“It was cut, we suspect someone must’ve done it but we can’t find anything or evidence leading to the person. I got the electricians to fix it, that was why it took so long.” He explained and my brows creased as the first person that appeare
Ximena“I’m sorry I can’t accept this…” My words hung in the air. Only the goddess knew what made me walk into his office without knocking.I couldn’t take my eyes away, I was staring, without shame. He was dressed in a black shirt which had been unbuttoned.His chest was glistening and his biceps moved in the most seductive way ever. Trying hard to control myself, I looked away and my gaze returned to his chest almost immediately.I swallowed the lump in my throat, I wanted to stop myself from drooling but it seemed too difficult a job for me.I couldn’t believe I was acting so shamefully but I couldn’t take my eyes away either.His hair was wet and the way little droplets of water rolled down his chest made my heart race terribly while my eyes followed the movement, watching it disappear further and further into his pleasing body.My hands burned, I wanted to touch and feel his skin, feel the warmth, graze my hand around. “Ximena.” He called softly, a mischievous smile on his face.
XimenaFor days, I found myself licking my lips and everytime I could taste him, I could scent him, feel him and breathe him.Ever since we kissed, that was the only thing. I tried my best to avoid him and although we never saw each other face to face, I always glanced at him from a distance, making sure he didn’t see me.I couldn’t pinpoint what was wrong with me but there was a wanton part of me that needed to be satiated with more than just a kiss, more than just touch.“Ximena, are you okay?” Juan asked, patting me and I almost jerked in fright.“Gosh, I’m okay.” I muttered disorderly and he stared at me for a few seconds, unconvinced and I almost burst into laughter.If only he knew the only reason his coach was unavailable was because of his sexy father.“You’re thinking about something, is something bothering you? Do you wanna share it?” He seemed so sweet and for a second I felt guilty but damn, the thought of guilty pleasure was even more terrifying as
Rogue king“Where the fuck is she!” He barked, his bloodshot eyes blazing with fury as he stared at the followers he had managed to suppress in the forest.He had managed to gather a number of feral wolves due to his immense power and now they all referenced him as their leader.“We… We couldn’t enter the pack…” The one who seemed in charge of the warriors managed to stutter as he bowed before him, unable to look him in the eyes because the Rogue King was known to be a bloodthirsty beast.“Why! Is this how you want to back down! After she decided to destroy my men! Do you like what she did? Are you going to wait until she kills all of us too?” He thundered, his voice rumbling inside the deep mountain.They were in a deep cave in the mountains, this was their abode and while the others went out to hunt for food and fight, the rogue king remained there, getting served by the rest.If any new feral wolf was caught, he’d be the one to decide whether the person got to die or join them. “N
XimenaI was heading to the field and strangely, Xena suggested we pass through the quarters meant for warriors.I was complaining bitterly as to why we had to pass through such a long journey when I overheard a heated voice.“What do you want me to do! I told you I needed more time… Things are different… You need to be patient and if you can…” He stopped abruptly like he had sensed my presence and he turned around sharply.I was staring at him from the door, a feigned smile on my face. He ended the call immediately, I could see his hands trembling slightly while he tried to force a smile although it seemed difficult.It was hard to tell whether I was overreacting or this was how he was behaving now. “Mark…”“Oh, it’s good to see you Xena… I heard about the attack, I’m so sorry.” He muttered and I smiled, nodding immediately.“Thank you so much. What’s up with you? Who were you arguing with?” I asked, my suspicions greater than my concern.“Nothing much… Just crazy stuff…” He drawled,
Ximena “Watch your steps, you almost tripped.” A guy mumbled as he placed his hand on my shoulder and I pushed it away immediately.“Yeah, thanks.” I replied coldly as I began walking away. I was heading into the mall and he followed me.“Hi… What’s wrong? Did I do something wrong? I’m sorry if I touched you against your wish, I was just concerned.” He mumbled and I nodded without a word, trying very hard to dismiss him.“I’m sorry, I see you’re not in the mood to speak.” He muttered and walked away, making me sigh with relief.I was shopping for clothes for mom and I and although we were supposed to come together, she found an excuse to keep herself at home. I knew she was scared of coming outside, since the death of father, she retreated more to herself and hardly went outside and I wished there was a way to drag her out of her shell but everything I tried failed.“I’ll have this.” I muttered as I pointed at a few dresses and the assistant nodded. Shopping w
XimenaI was facing alpha Alvaro in his office with a frown. I looked terrible because my hair was scattered, my eyes were red and I had dark spots underneath.I couldn’t sleep throughout the night because I couldn’t stop thinking about the Rogue king. “Ximena…”“I need answers, I want to know why Alpha Gonzalo and the Rogue king are after me. I need to know.” I replied, staring at him intently and he exhaled.“I’m equally confused. I don’t know what to think…”“I need a reason…” My voice softened. “The Rogue king has been terrorizing packs long before I was born but never for once has there been rumors of him trying to capture any wolf so he could mark her. What is it? Why am I suddenly wanted by multiple powerful men?” I was in utter confusion and he walked towards me, placing his hands on me.“I’m equally confused, Ximena. Nobody knows what the rogue king is thinking, he’s not telling his followers enough information and all we can do is try to catch him but that is proving to be
XimenaI was returning from the Shadow pack, driving through the empty road when I sniffed a different scent in the air.I had paid grandmother a visit and although I'd have loved to spend a full day with her, I couldn’t. Everything felt different, I knew it was outside of the packs but the air here was always clean, pure and nice but today it seemed polluted in a way.I couldn’t explain but there was a lot, countless things had changed. It bothered me more than it was supposed to.Maybe I was being overly cautious. “Xena… I don’t feel safe…” I whispered softly as I stepped on the pedals, increasing my speed.“Let’s try our best to reach the pack. Seems like something dark is lurking around but don’t stop!” She replied and I nodded, driving crazily.I was so close to the border when I saw a figure crossing the road. I slammed my legs on the brakes, my car screeching to a halt.The sudden halt made me jerk out of my seat but with the seatbelt holding me down, it was only my hair that
Ximena I couldn’t stop thinking about Alvaro, everything in the house reminded me of him. I decided to take the day off because I felt like a fool.Remembering the words I had said to him, my cheeks heated up, I was about to die of embarrassment on my bed.“Why the fuck would you say such words to him, Ximena.” I questioned myself.“Because you’re in love.” Xena replied and I rolled my eyes.“Oh please, not everything is love. Can you remember the sex I had with Mark, why didn’t you call it love?” I demanded.“Because it wasn’t love, it was because of your heat and it wasn’t good enough but Alvaro… Alvaro, girl you’re about to have the fucking best time of your life.” She exaggerated and I just shook my head slowly.“Ximena, stop trying to complicate things. This isn’t love, it’s more like attraction because we are always in compromising situations. I can assure you it’s anything but love.” I replied and Xena giggled.“It’s more than just attraction. You know it deep down but you pre
Alvaro I couldn’t stop staring at Ximena as she read a book to Juan who was slowly drifting to sleep. He looked happy, his eyes were glowing and for the first time in his life, he felt something so close to maternal love. I was so pleased. This was what a family was like and it fueled my resolve to make Juan experience family. I would stop at nothing until I made Ximena my wife and I knew it’d take nothing to him to start acknowledging her as his mother. I wanted to give him a mother so desperately, he deserved a big family. “Good night son.” I whispered softly as I placed a small kiss on his head while Ximena closed the book. She placed it on his small table and rose slowly, her face was flushed and I could tell that she was emotional. It was evident that this was her first time reading a book to a kid but she was so perfect at it. Motherhood was a lot but for her, it seemed like she was born to be a mother, to have kids and love them unconditionally. There was a lot of tensi
XimenaI saw her eyes flash with anger, her muscles tensed and she fisted her hand, her nails digging into her palms as she glared daggers at me.Her gaze was fixated on me, hostility visible and despite that she was quiet, her anger had spoken volumes already.“How dare you!” She snarled after a prolonged silence and Alpha Alvaro let go of me slowly.“What do you want, Emiliano?” He demanded as he stepped forward, his huge body shielding me away from her deadly glare.“Is this how you want to pay back Marie? Her son is lying on a sick bed, battling for his life and you’re here in the arms of your lowlife mate! What am I saying! All these are adding up! My sister was poisoned and now her son is facing the same thing. I think we all know who the culprit is here but you’ve been blinded already! Ever since she came into this pack, she began misleading you!” Emiliano yelled and I felt Alvaro’s muscle tense for a moment.“Emiliano, watch your words!” He announced lowly, a warning tone in h
XimenaArriving at the hospital, I was torn between going to search for Juan and leaving. I stayed at the reception and watched as everyone went by their business.I wished I could see Dhruv or any doctor who I could speak with before entering inside. I was trembling with worry and Emiliano’s words echoed in my ears.“Oh please, stop pretending. They’ve visited that restaurant numerous times but the very first time they go with you, Juan gets attacked. Do you want to tell me you have nothing to do with this?”“Are you really going to listen to Emiliano Of all people?” Xena demanded and I exhaled.“I’m trying not to but there’s nothing I can do. Since I came to the pack Juan had always been fine… Someone knew we were at the restaurant together and I’m sure the person is behind this. Someone is trying to make me take the blame for all these. And now I don’t know what the Alpha might be thinking…”“Alpha Alvaro isn’t like that. He won’t accuse you of something you know nothing about. If
Ximena I avoided eye contact with everyone immediately I entered the house, Alpha Alvaro had ended up walking with me to the house and everyone stared at me.I could feel their inquisitive gaze prickle my skin as I headed towards my room. “Goodnight mom.” I mumbled and they all burst into laughter.“All secrets will be revealed eventually, it’s just a matter of time.” I heard Aarav mumble, I almost scowled at him but decided to go to bed.“Let's give it time, how about a month or three weeks.” Kushim added as they both burst into laughter.I paused for a moment but continued walking.I locked the door immediately I entered the room and threw myself on the bed, exhaling deeply as I tried to calm my racing heart.My palms covered my face as my cheeks burned, I needed no one to tell me I was blushing.“What the heck is wrong with me? Family dinners now, what’s next?” I asked myself even though I knew the answer.I hit my cheeks softly, I tried to get alpha Alvaro out of my head but it w
