For the love of the alpha

THIRD PERSON'S POV Myra winced as she ran a finger over her wrist. It was bruised, as usual. Nothing was new about that. She had been going through the same pain and humiliation for the past six years, now she had just turned 19 and still all of it was the same. She had tried to escape so many times, but had never been succesfull, her ill fate, she had always termed it. What made the situation even worse was that the alpha of the pack that had held her captive was claiming that she was his mate. She was sure he wasn't her mate since she hadn't felt any bond with him, but her denial only brought her more pain. She had a strong wolf, after all she had survived 6 years of abuse and torture. But everything has its limits. Lately she had not been feeling her wolf. Perhaps she was only taking time to heal and gain new energy. All of it would pass eventually, of that she was sure. When? She asked herself. She had no idea. All she needed to do was survive till the evening. Since it was th

THIRD PERSON'S POV Myra took a deep breath, her left palm resting on her heart. She was beyond shaken, destroyed. She hadn't expected any of this at all. Nothing she had been through would have prepared her for the day she finds out that her mate has a lover. All the dreams she had ever had of ever finding her mate were shattered. She would never be the same again and she knew it. But what could she do? Whatever decision she made she seemed to always end up in pain. She let her lips curve up into a small smile when she recalled her dreams of having a mate and even a family. Oh it was painful, she discovered, to loose what you have always dreamed of without even actually having it. She would survive, she had to. First, she had to find out how and why he had a mate , then she would take it from there. Surely there had to be an explanation. "Why..." "Listen, you can't tell anyone that we are mates. " He warned looking dead serious. If she thought the feeling of rejection she had r

MYRA'S POV Xavier and I have been talking for nearly half an hour. Now i know a bit about him. He is an only child and his parents died when he was 16 so thats when he became the alpha. No wonder he is the strongest alpha alive, he has had to learn alot. From these moments i am starting to realize that I might have misjudged Xavier. Maybe he is not as rutheles as he seems, perhaps we can work on our mate bond and take it from there. I am pulled out of my thoughts by a knock on the door. I look at Xavier and he looks agiatated. I make my way to the door and pull it open, before its even fully open, Sarah storms in. She scans the room then scowls when her eyes land on Xavier. "What are you doing here?" she asks, though it comes out more like an accusation. "I came to see if our guest was comfortable" Xavier replies looking at me. "Oh i see. So its your first day here and you are already after my mate. " she scoffs at me. I open my mouth to answer but Xavier beats me to it. "Don't

THIRD PERSON'S POV They say it is hard to wait for something that you are not sure would ever belong to you, but it is even harder to give up on someone knowing they are all you want. Till today Myra had thought this quote was utter nonsence, that was before she found herself in the same situation. Even she knew that no matter how much pain Xavier gave her, she would always stay and hope that one day he will be hers. It has been a week since the incident with Sarah. Myra hadn't seen Sarah since that night. Rumour had it that she had found her mate and left with him. This should have brought relief to Myra and perhaps some hope to her relationship with Xavier, but no. Nothing changed. Only Myra could attest to how hard it was to have your mate in the next room, to smell their scent all around you and still be unmated. But she was strong, she had gone through so many years of slavery and torture, how could this be any different? It shouldn't have been, but it was. Time and again she w

THIRD PERSON'S POV “But pain's like water. It finds a way to push through any seal. There's no way to stop it. Sometimes you have to let yourself sink inside of it before you can learn how to swim to the surface.” ― Katie Kacvinsky For the next few days Myra wallowed in her misery. However, she did keep her word. She managed to stay out of the alpha's way. In fact, she had left the pack house. She was currently staying at the beta Ryan's place. Of course no one knew this. Beta Ryan was gay and unmated though no one knew that either. He had shared his secret with Myra in confidence and she had sworn to keep it. Of course she knew that many pack members would raise eyebrows at their living arrangements but that didn't matter to beta Ryan and she was also fine with it. There was change in her life, the positive kind, from having no one to having a friend, in fact , two. She had also befriended an omega with the name Crista. She was as kind as a kite and as beautiful as they come. She
