Death To The Alpha Chapter 14: Bye bye Haley
I sprint the entire way until I hit the little pathway and then I smooth my outfit and knock on the door, asking for Sarah as David instructed. She shows me around and tells me I will help her with basic cleaning and kitchen chores, like preparing food and serving it when necessary for the duration of Haley’s absence. “I am off for the evening, so you will be in charge of making dinner and having it ready for when the Alpha arrives in an hour.” My eyes bulge at the thought of cooking a full meal and I try to beg her to stay, but when I turn around, she is already gone.“Shit.” I busy myself with pulling out the chicken slated for dinner tonight. I stare at the pale raw bird, then search for a plethora of spices. I have never cooked a chicken before. Not a whole chicken like this. I mean, I’ve eaten roasted chicken before. I’m not a stranger to good food, but… this chicken is giving me the creeps.Ironic, I know, considering I just killed an asshole in the woods and a little raw chi
Death To The Alpha Chapter 15: Falling
“Where is she?” I can hear Haley’s screeching voice from the front of the house as I sweep off the patio out back.“The wicked witch is back,” I mutter, and Sarah snorts a laugh as she walks out to set the outdoor table for lunch. It’s been a few days since I moved out of Haley’s. I was lucky enough to do it while she was away. But clearly, peace can never stay long, at least not where Haley goes.“Prepare yourself.” Sarah whispers “She is staying for lunch.”“Wonderful,” I say, turning to face Sarah with the fakest smile I can muster.She grins at me and continues what she is doing. Sarah is the first person in this entire pack, aside from James, to treat me with any kindness. I like to think it is because she knows what it’s like to be in my shoes, but also maybe it has more to do with who she takes orders from. Not once have I seen James lose his temper or yell at his staff. In fact, I would almost go as far as to say that he goes out of his way to be kind to them. Now it could ea
Death To The Alpha Chapter 16: I like you
James swoops in and takes my lips, hungrily searching and kneading my hips in a motion that continually crashes me into him and his apparent desire. His hands dip now, and cup my ass giving me a rough squeeze, making me squeak in surprise. He doesn’t back down as he launches his hot tongue into my mouth, mingling our lips in a flurry of need and lust. I can feel my heart pattering loud in my ears and my wolf is silent. Though she once used to enjoy our moments with James, she is now hiding, holding back, and the realization has me on edge. I try to coax her out, to let us just enjoy the moment for once, but she refuses. She is conveying to me that my actions are my own and she washes her hands of it. My wolf does not approve of my feelings or relationship with James.I gasp out when he lifts me, guiding my legs around his waist as he turns to back me against the wall, slamming me hard. The wind knocks out of me and he growls in want with the sound. James’ hands knot in my hair, yanki
Death To The Alpha Chapter 17: Realizations
Enzo bites his lower lip anxiously before inhaling deeply and kneeling at my feet.“I think about kissing you all the time. It takes me hours to fall asleep because I missed you all day long. I feel like I have to watch you sleep just to make up for it. I don’t just protect you because I have to. Ivy, I do it because I need to. It’s an addiction for me. I’m addicted to you. Addicted to seeing you because if anything were to happen to you…”“Woah, woah… I-I-I… Enzo… I can’t.” I groan as I rest my elbows on my knees, cradling my face between my hands. “Why the hell would you tell me this?” “If the only reason you like him is because he is the first guy to express his feelings, then I’m going, to be honest, and tell you I have had feelings for you since they assigned me as your protector.” he tries to get me to look at him but I can’t bring myself to do it. “But that’s forbidden, Enzo. It’s forbidden to be with your charge.” My voice is panicky even to me.“I am aware of that, Ivy.” He
Death To The Alpha Chapter 18: Back to Mistress
~Enzo POV~I was raised training to protect the alpha and his family. I have trained since the day I was old enough to run. Every day since that moment I have done nothing but keep my promise to protect the alpha’s family, even if the only remainder is the very thing I crave to make my own. Years were spent learning to push aside emotions and make calculated decisions. Logical ones that aren’t driven by something that could make me make a mistake. Something like love. And at the first sign of possibly losing her to another man, I decide to tell her I want her. Basically, I’m a fucking idiot. A love drunk, needy, jealous idiot who apparently has no control over his emotions anymore. Which just made this mission of revenge more dangerous. I slipped up. When she asked for help, I should not have kissed her. I never should have allowed myself to sleep next to her in any form other than wolf form. Yet, here I am walking myself into the room that keeps me from her because I couldn’t just
Death To The Alpha Chapter 19: Alpha's Mate rules
~ Ivy POV~I blink at Enzo’s faded wooden door. It’s giving me fewer mixed signals than he is these days. Do I deserve a door in the face? No. Okay, maybe. But I’m not the horny dick head who just confessed feelings for me when someone else shows interest and then goes and screws the girl he claims to hate. I should have called him out on it. But then I would have to admit to him it bothered me and it bothered me way more than I am ready to admit. And what the hell does he mean by going our separate ways? This dummy thinks he can get rid of me that easily? Enzo is the only person I have in the world. Losing him would be akin to losing my family all over again. I won’t be his mistress anymore? Fine. I can handle that I’m a big girl, but if he truly thinks for one damn second, he can leave me in the dust. He has another thing coming.I stomp my way out of his house, creating as much noise as humanly possible. Is it juvenile? Completely. Do I care? Not entirely. I slam the door shut beh
Death To The Alpha Chapter 20: A date with the Alpha
“I wish there was a better way to prove it to you,” James says, giving me a wary look.His fingers twitch like he wants to reach out and pull me close. I’m relieved when he doesn’t. The problem with his statement is that the mate bond, on my side of things, is completely nonexistent. I can feel a pull to him.Yes, I find him attractive and I know I like him more than I should, but that has to do with him and not the mate bond. I could fall in love with and want him, but when I turn twenty-one and meet my mate, it would be as though I feel nothing for James—if he isn’t my real mate. There is no way for me to determine if what he is saying is true or not. “I am just supposed to believe I’m your mate?” I ask him, my voice breathy. “Are you sure?”“I am sure.” he chuckles and shakes his head. “I’m drawn to you, unlike anyone else. You are the most beautiful woman I have ever laid eyes on. Ivy, I’m not making this up. I can feel it tingling in my bones every time I am near you. You were
Death To The Alpha Chapter 21: Drunken Mistakes
A waiter brings me a glass of wine as I take my seat. I look at James, who is sipping on a glass of bourbon. In the human communities, they have what we call watered-down alcohol. Their alcohol has no effect on us, no matter how fast we drink. Our metabolism does not allow us to build up the blood alcohol level in our systems.Enter our own version of alcohol, the same thing the humans have, just a hundred proof and somehow filtered to perfect to still be smooth and tasty. I have only ever had it once. When Enzo and I finished our training and set out on our way here. It ended terribly. I ended up throwing up all night, cuddling with Enzo’s wolf for warmth.I take a few sips, then a tall, thin man approaches James. His eyes skirt over me lustfully and instantly I wrap my free arm over my stomach and avert my eyes.“Dorian is still nowhere to be seen.” Then a salad lands in front of me and I look up, surprised at the waitress, who gives me a sheepish smile.“The alpha pre-ordered all y
