Chapter 5

ELIAS'S POV

My heart hammered in my heart as the door slightly opened.

This was it. It was finally over. All my mother's effort to make me the Perfect Alpha for Silverhaven Pack was going to be in vain

“Rowan!” someone yelled and he stopped. “The coach needs you to discuss the plan for the next round.”

Rowan sighed. “Tell him to give me a minute, I'll…”

“He said now.”

There was a pause before Rowan groaned and shut the door back. “Elias, hurry up and come back to the field,” he yelled before I heard him running out.

The moment his footsteps faded, I rushed to lock the door before I slumped against the tiled wall, chest rising and falling fast. My entire body was hot and trembling from the heat.

“Fuck…” I whispered as the heat became unbearable and my entire body was aching with need.

The suppressants I used before the match were not doing anything to help. It had never lost control like this. Rowan’s touch and scent were able to destroy the control I'd built all these years. This was the biggest recipe for disaster.

‘I don't think I can take this anymore. You have to make it stop,” Carlos whispered in my head.

There was only one way to stop this heat and it was to give in to it. At that moment, my mother's voice rang in my head.

‘You are an Alpha. Never give in to your Omega instinct. Once you do, it would be hard to control.’

Back then it was easy to heed her warnings because no Alpha or Beta has been able to trigger my heat.

Why now of all times?

It was impossible to go back to the dorm to get my suppressants because of the distance from the field and the fear of bumping into someone. I didn't carry them around because I was scared that someone might find them which could ruin things for me.

Each dose of suppressants has been able to last me for up to 6 hours and it hasn't been up to two hours since I took the last dose.

‘You need to end this fast before someone comes back to look for you.’ Carlos said in a restrained voice.

Breathing heavily, I glanced down at my hard dick that was protruding upwards in the shorts I was wearing.

Desperate to put myself out of this misery, I slowly put my hand inside my shorts, ignoring all my mother's warnings and brought my member.

“Mmmh,” I moaned as I wrapped my hands around my dick and began to stroke it slowly at first.

I could feel the pleasure travelling through my veins as my fingers began to work faster. I threw my head back with my eyes closed and an image of Rowan kneeling in front of me, sucking me with his eyes on me flashed through my mind.

“Fuck, Rowan, yes.” Beads of sweat formed on my head as I increased my pace.

I was breathing heavily as the pleasure was getting intense. It was nothing like i felt before.

“Ahh,” I moaned louder while my hand worked faster, desperate to find my release.

My other hand covered my mouth to muffle my moans as I reached my climax and came all over the floor.

The burning sensation in my body began to cool down as I tried to catch my breath.

“What the fuck did i just do?” I groaned in regret.

‘That was the only way to stop the heat.’ Carlos responded. ‘You can just call your mom to find a way to stop it from happening again.’

No, I couldn't do that. She had done so much to keep my secret till now and I went against her warning. I had to figure this out myself.

The best thing I could do for her was successfully graduating from Mortlach Academy as the rightful and qualified heir of Silverhaven Pack without making her worry about me.

“We are going to figure this out alone,” I said as I stood up and walked into the bathroom. “Right now, we have a match to win.”

I washed my hands and splashed water on my face before going back to clean the mess I made. By the time I was done, my body was completely cool and I had control of my Omega instinct again.

Standing in front of the mirror in the locker room, I made sure I looked composed and confident like the Alpha my mother raised me to be.

“I can do this.” I assured myself as I walked out of the locker room.

As I approached the field, I saw Rowan was standing by the sidelines of the field with our team members. My mind was screaming at me to stay away from him as far as I could.

‘You have to play side by side with him, will that be possible?’ Carlos questioned.

I took a deep breath and replied, “I will try my best.”

“Why did you run off like that?” He raised his eyebrows at me but I sensed the concern in his tone.

“I…uh,” I ran a hand through my hair, forcing an awkward chuckle. “I was getting a little suffocated and dehydrated. I guess I wasn't hydrated enough for the match.”

His expression softened. “Are you okay now?”

“Yeah,” I nodded quickly, keeping my tone steady.

He studied me for a moment longer, his sharp eyes searching mine as if they were looking for something. He eventually nodded. “Make sure to take care of yourself next time.” He broke his gaze and whispered. “You scared me for nothing.”

His words caught me off guard. Scared him?

A warmth spread through my chest and it had nothing to do with my heat this time.

I shook my head and quickly came back to my senses.

‘Elias, he is from Crescent Pack. You shouldn't trust him or let him get too close. They always come with trouble.’ I thought to myself.

The sound of the crowd pulled me out of my thoughts and I turned to the field just in time to hear the final whistle blow.

Crimson Claws, Adrian's team, won the match against the other three teams.

Adrian stood at the center of the field, his chest heaving and his sweat glistening on his skin. A victorious smirk curved on his lips as he raised his team flag high.

His gaze found mine and his smirk twisted into something darker.

“Are you ready for war?” Rowan said beside me and I nodded, understanding what he meant.

With Adrian's team going head to head with mine, I knew it was going to be tougher than I expected.

The last thing I would do as the next Alpha of Silverhaven Pack is lose to the future Alpha of Crescent Pack.
