He looks at me and asks " what happened Roho ? " " I walked into the training centre this morning to do my drills and Pete told me about- " "ahem " I look at Alpha " about something fairly concerning and it would seem Vince wanted to use that as a reason for not training today, so I merely pointed that his reasoning makes no sense because if the situation Pete spoke about turns into fruition then we need to do as much training as possible and he slapped me "
" Just like that? " " just like that, then had to gaul to tell me that would knock me down a peg or two, I mean who wouldn't that piss off especially when you add the times before when I chose to ignore him " " I understand and no hard feelings " " NO HARD FEELINGS!! SHE BROKE MY FINGERS DAD! " " on the same hand you hit her with correct? " he leans back onto his bed and says nothing.
" You're such a wimp Steven " " you know Steven, you are as much to blame for Vince as his mother is by allowing her to run all over you like she does, she doesn't respect you and he has grown the same way and just imagine, they're both dependant on you as the main breadwinner of your household and treat you like that when their livelihood depends on you, may I be excused Alpha? "
Vinces mom looks mortified as I've said out loud what he has probably never looked at things that way and I saw a light come on in his eyes before I turned to leave the room. I sat down on a bench outside of the medical wing and waited for my Alpha and the others to come down as I have yet to receive my punishment.
" Hey Ro! " I turn to my left to see Joao and Ember coming my way " hey guys! " I sit up and they join me sitting on the bench " where have you been Ro! you'll never guess what happened while you were away! " " what did? "
" The Alpha King himself came to the pack! " " really? " now that is news to me, Joao snickered " yeah and he kicked Ember to the curb " she hit him on the shoulder and blush " gosh why did you have to say it like that Jo " " because it's exactly what it was, you're lucky he didn't kill you " " is he that brutal?! " " no, he just doesn't appreciate desperation as he's apparently waiting for his mate "
" Aww isn't that cute " I snicker " but that aside how have you been Ro? " Joao asks " uhm I've been " " busy making mischief! come this way young lady your punishment has been decided " I sigh " see you guys later " " h-hang on Dad. punishment? what did she do? Ro what did you do? " he looks so concerned for me aww.
" I may or may not have broken Vinces ribs and fingers on his left hand " I say in one breath " I'm sorry come again, you broke Vince, as Vince Tomas' rib and fingers, is that what you're saying " " yup " " why? " " because he slapped me " " HE WHAT?! " " I'm gonna kill him! " both of them breeze by me " neither of you will do any such thing, Vince has suffered enough and Roho most certainly does not need either of you to be her champion, return home and Roho come along with us to my office "
Well considering their home and his office are in the same building we all end up walking in the same direction with Ember hanging onto me and I slide my arm around her waist and she sighs slightly " have I ever told you I love the way you smell Roro? it's so comforting although I can't exactly say what the scent is but I love it so much "
I chuckle lightly " yes Emmy you've told me like a zillion times already " " well it's as true as every other time I've told you " we all get into the lift and I say bye to Jo and Em as we step off on the Alphas' office floor, we all file in after the Alpha and I sit down between them.
" Okay Ro, I'll cut to the chase, we're going to have a general pack meeting later which all pack members are to attend, after the meeting is over you'd be placed on Three days house arrest, no coming past your front porch and no visitors, on the Fourth day you're to report to my office before heading back to the training grounds "
" Very well but you do know that Vince is going to think this happened because I hurt him which will make him taunt me and land him back into the hospital again? " " you do not worry about Mr. Tomas he is on a week isolation as well for his actions, he will also report to me before coming back to training " " okay "
" And by the way, you tore Vinnia apart, you know that don't you? " " what do you mean? " " your words inspired Steven and he finally gained a spine and told them if they keep acting the way they do he will reject her and put them out of his house, I have never seen a woman switch demeanour like that so quickly, she literally coiled her tail "
I chuckle " serves them right, she's the sole reason he's the way he is, anyway good for Steven! "
" You truly are incorrigible Ro, head on home and I will see you on day Four " I bow and bid them all farewell and head straight to my house, considering I have everything I need at home already I most certainly have no reason to leave home.
I unlock my door and walk into the house and release a breath, " my first vacation in years! " I throw myself onto my couch and relax immediately.
Thats my girl, stand up for yourself “so I should of stayed there like a deer in headlights and let him hit me and possibly damage my ribs based on where he may have hit me all for the sake of this guy tapping out”Harry adds also “your assessment also ended the moment she won and stepped out of the ring, if she chose to watch or converse that has nothing to do with you or your assessments, and considering you had time to watch her conversing it means your attention was away from the ring which means YOU were not focused which also means whatever you wrote on the others assessment sheets are now void”“What?! Just because of that, my guidelines are void, that is nonsense Harry and you know it!” “would it be less nonsense if I said then?” I speak up from where I am and she backs away “my King I-” “save it, I have no clue what your issue is but your judgement is bogus and you know it Sherry, now do I need to have you removed from the instructors roster or will you ensure this time of no
“Sir, I’m not sure about you but isn’t it an advantage for us that that team has Two she-wolves, I could never hurt a female” “in combat we do not see gender, everyone is equal and is treated at such, if the she-wolves do not think they can manage they can simply tap out as can anyone else, okay?”“YES SIR!” “okay, now begin” I move closer obviously to ensure Red doesn’t get hurt ‘if anyone hurts her I will rip their heads off’ ‘calm down Hunt, it’s training this is bound to happen’ knowing full well that I am not okay.“Son?” “Dad? What brings you here?” “well I thought I’d stop by your office for a little chat but caught your scent over here and came to take a look, these are the recruits?” “yes” “you’re not normally involved with the training, how come you’re here?” “hmm well it is the first day and I had to give a speech and also remember even though this is the same training as we do annually it is not our usual crowd” “well that’s true, whoa! Look at her go!”I look back at the
As though she feels my eyes on her she has the audacity to make a funny face at me then turn her head back to the instructor, I laugh, how can she be so bold and so comfortable doing things like that to the King “do you have something to add your majesty?” “what” I have long since clocked out of your speech Harry “Yes, well first and foremost I want to thank all of you for volunteering to do this training course, I am sure or hopeful at least that your Alphas and or squad captains would have told you the purpose of me doing this, yes?”“Yes my King” “great, now I know there are those among who have no prior training so we shall do everything from the beginning, it would be best for the untrained wolves to train separately until your instructor has gotten you up to speed with the others which I have given them Six weeks to do, after the time is up you should be up to par and ready to join the trained ones here and then our real training will begin, you must all work together and learn
Of course not your majesty! We would never do such a thing!” “then how would she have preplanned something to hurt me without even knowing I was coming to the kitchen?”“I am sorry your majesty, I meant well for you but I overstepped, I am sorry”I simply walk around them and out the kitchen after I cleaned up after myself while sipping my drink. “Red slow down there!” he jogs a bit catching up to me “are you headed for the training grounds?” “that’s correct” “what about breakfast” “it’s is in my hand and yours is it not?” he looks down at the glass “this was your breakfast?” “yes, when training a light and nutritional meal is best, keeps you light, less lazy but full”“I see, I am sorry I robbed you of your breakfast then” “you didn’t rob me, I tend to make a lot to share at home especially with Beau who lives with me and Joao who’s always at my house” “you live with a man?!” he’s breathing is laboured and heavy “yes? Is there a problem? I mean it’s not like we’re fkin or anything, h
Alpha TylerI lock my office and go my private kitchen, I take out the last of my mates cooking, yes, I shamelessly took the remainder of the food and stored it in my private kitchen in the refrigerator where no one else could have it.My chef asked me what I’d like for dinner and was surprised when I told her it was fine and sent her on her way as I’m not the meal missing type of man but here I am heating up this day-old meal and garlic bread just because it was made by my mate.I savour it right down to the last drop and clean up after myself then sit on my balcony for a bit to digest and sip some bourbon.After a bit I place my glass down because I begin to feel warm from the inside out “wow that must be some strong bourbon” I look at the bottle inspecting it and even though I’m sitting outside I feel so warm, I touch my forehead, it’s barely noticeable but I have a temperature”Have I ever been sick a day in my life? I leave the drink there and head to bed flopping down, laying on
CarsonAfter she leaves, I look down at myself still hard as a rock, images of her naked body flood my mind, how her skin felt and the sound of her moaning, I find my release and shower quickly. 'Why didn't you just take her?' 'I need to know if she's serious about us or not, that we're not just a fleeting thought or game to play with then toss aside for the King' 'but you heard what she said, the King has no interest in her' the King, perhaps I should go talk to him.I get dressed and seek him out and find him just about to enter his bedroom, “my King, sorry to trouble you at this hour but may I have a few minutes of your time please” “wait in my office Carson” he goes into his room and I turn and head towards his office, he said to wait inside so I open and let myself in and take a seat.It takes him about Ten minutes before he comes into the office, his hair is damp which means he went to shower “I suppose you’ve decided on where you wish to settle” “ ahh yes my King, if it’s alri
We get back to the tree line where I shifted and left my clothes earlier, I pick them up and shift, the Lycan has his back turned to me “I’m dressed” we walk out of the tree line and I stop when I hear laughter and see a she wolf walking with my mate and she’s engrossed in whatever he’s telling her and laughing and so is he.Our eyes meet for a brief moment and he looks at Tyler then me and back to the she wolf and they carry on, I look up and the Lycan is watching me as though asking what was that about “I don’t think he wants me, thank you for coming to save me, I’m going to go now” I try my best not to cry.When I look back the Lycan is gone, I do hate to refer to him this way but I was never told his name, I’m not sure if anyone knows his Lycans name, another keep sake for his mate I guess, mate I sigh and walk into my room, I strip down and take a shower washing myself from head to toe paying extra care to my p*ssy, I also have to delete all my texts, pictures and everything abou
“P-Please don’t do this, yes I will admit I have been with another but he was the only one I did not sleep around” my eyes water “you do not need to explain yourself to me Ms. Astrid” I sob out loud this time and he wavers, I know he feels my sorrow and remorse through the mate bond but he doesn’t move “I am your mate Carson, if you accept me, then I will be yours alone I swear it, King Tyler, I knew very well he had no feelings for me but yes it is true that I wanted the crown even though I knew I’d suffer and be unloved but I swear to you it will only be you, Tyler is not the least bit interested in me I assure you, do you want me to get on my knees and beg you because I will”He stares at me and says nothing for a while and I drop to me knees before him “why do you want me’’ I look up at him crying, I don’t care how foolish or desperate I look right now, I don’t want to lose this man “you’re my mate, the one that’s meant to complete me, I am also meant to complete you, this bond th
don’t know me so what is there to love?”She comes over to me and seems like she was about to wrap her arms around me but I grabbed hold of them “ you never gave me the chance to get to know you” “that’s because you’re an idiot who keeps allowing the Elders to control you” *knock* “come in!”I was still holding onto her busy hands when Cory and Carson walked in, I released her hands when I saw that look on Carsons face, she stood frozen staring wide eyed “mate” she whispers in disbelief “mate” Carson says in return but he doesn’t move from the door.I can see he’s fighting with his wolf “what’s wrong mate?” Astrid asks moving over to him and he steps back which makes her wolf whimper.“Awkward” says Cory “uhm, Astrid this is Carson, Carson meet Astrid” Carson looks at me “so this is your betrothed my King, it’s nice to meet you Ms. Astrid” she whimpers again and looks up at me with her eyes full of water.I feel her nudging into my mind and I let her in, her wolf is crying ‘why doesn’
