The Alpha's Mate Who Cried Wolf Chapter 17
I don’t want to go to school today knowing I have to end things with Claire. Sometimes I have to wonder if it’s me who has a curse. Everyone who seems to care for me ends up hurt. I force my feet out of bed, knowing what I need to do. I get dressed, wash my face in the basin, and head downstairs for breakfast. Everyone is already halfway through breakfast. I must have slept in. Everyone greets me except for Nina. Her eyes stare vacantly at her bowl of cereal as she swivels the milk around with her spoon, lost in thought. As soon as I sit down, she stands up and grabs her schoolbag to leave.‘In a hurry?’ Leon asks her.‘I’m meeting up with Moss so we can walk to school together.’‘Okay, honey. You have a great day.’‘Thanks, I will, Dad.’She runs out the door. Zak, May, and Josie are ready to leave. I grab my bag and join them.‘Have you talked to Nina yet?’ I ask May.‘No, last night I went to her room, but she ignored me and wouldn’t open the door.’‘Nina has gone through a lot. Sh

Pipsqueak waves me over into the back of the office and unlocks the door. We step into the forbidden dark room together. It smells musty, and the many cobwebs show no one has been in here for years.The structure differs from the rest of the library, which has plastered white walls, whereas this room has bluestone walls and old wooden beams across the ceiling. There are old rickety wooden bookshelves filled with old books. Some are leather-bound, and some have steel clasps and jewels on them. We approach the table carved from stone. There are a few small, half-melted candles, with some matches nearby. Pipsqueak lights the three candles. We stand side by side and take in the old medieval room.‘You start with those books, and I’ll start with these.’ I point.‘But I don’t know what I’m looking for.’‘How to break a curse?’‘What are you getting m-me into?’ she squeaks. I sigh and decide that I can trust her, and it’s best to let her in on the secret.‘You can’t tell anyone, okay?’‘O-ok

‘So, it doesn’t look like you two had a full-on make-out session that messed up Nina’s bedroom. Even your mattress is on the floor,’ Josie laughs.I get myself off of Nina and help her up from the mattress on the floor.‘So, which one of you will explain this situation?’ Flint asks.Nina and I point at each other, and the others laugh.‘Well, we can’t tell you.’ I say.‘What do you mean you can’t tell us?’ Zak growls.‘Because our Luna said we aren’t to tell anyone else.’ Nina explains.‘Who else knows about this secret thing you are keeping from us?’ Zak asks.‘All our parents know, and then us two.’ I say.‘So, our parents all know about whatever it is, but we aren’t allowed to be let in on it?’ Zak says.‘Correct.’ I say, too guilty to look them in the eye.‘If you don’t let us in on what is going on, I will tell everyone about you two making out.’ Josie smirks.Nina and I give each other a look.‘Fine, get in here and shut the door behind you.’ I grumble.Everyone finds a spot sit
The Alpha's Mate Who Cried Wolf Chapter 20
It’s the night of my wolf ceremony. I’ve spent the day with my parents, greeting all the Alphas who arrived and their families and pack members. It’s been exhausting. I have met hundreds of unmated females who have swooned over me all day. Along with all that, I’ve been worried that I might shift against my will tonight. The pain I went through when I had shifted was unbearable, to the point I thought I would die. It’s not an experience I want to repeat. I know the pack doctor is here just in case but is there anything he can do to help me?More unmated she-wolves arrive and swoon around me. ‘Is it true you shifted early? Is it true your wolf is white? Are your muscles real?’ Another asks, feeling my biceps. I can’t help but notice Nina glaring at me. She looks stunning in her red dress that flows at the bottom. It has a long slit on the right showing off her petite, beautiful legs. Her hair is up high, with a couple of strands dangling down her cheeks.Great, what have I done to upse

I race towards the car; Moss isn’t in there. He has gone. I can smell his scent towards the woods. Nina is unconscious. Blood trickles down the left side of her head. There is glass everywhere.I howl as loud as I can for help. Mum and Dad appear, shift into their human forms, and climb into the car.‘Where has Moss gone? You didn’t kill him, did you?’ Mother asks worriedly. I shake my head and whimper as I step towards Dad carrying Nina.‘She needs to see the pack doctor right away. Otherwise, she might not make it.’I lower myself down, knowing the quickest way to get her to the doctor is me taking her. Dad places her gently on my back and wraps her arms around my neck. I glide through the air like a bird with every leap, increasing my speed and making it a smoother run so I don’t drop her. Mum and Dad shift back into their wolves and can barely keep up with my pace. We arrive back at the ceremony. Everyone parted ways, screaming or startled at the sight of Nina.‘Nina! Amelia screa

‘Which sister is the oldest?’ I ask.‘That would be Addison.’ He smiles.‘You can’t be seriously thinking about doing this, Magnus?’ Josie says.‘What other choice do we have?’Josie glares at Hank. ‘We could kill him?’ she smiles.‘Josie, that would only worsen the situation, especially if the evidence is led back to us as the killers.’Hank is looking at us, mortified that murdering him could be an option.‘If you ever tried to kill me, Moss would know you were all behind it.’He is correct, but I already knew killing him wouldn’t help the situation.‘What if your sisters want to find their fated mates?’ I ask.‘Please, Magnus, we all know you’re a catch and going to be one of the best and strongest Alpha’s in the land, and with a pure white wolf, any she-wolf would give their fated mate up in a heartbeat.’‘I need time to consider this, at least give me that?’‘Fine, I will inform my father and Addison of the proposal in the meantime and that you will consider it, but I won’t menti

Claire spends the day following me around at school.‘Boo-boo, I was hoping we could talk?’‘Stop calling me Boo-boo, and I’ll give you five minutes to talk to me.’‘Oh, okay then, B-Magnus…’ she trails off.I lean against my locker with my arms crossed.‘What is it?’‘I was hoping you would reconsider… us? I want us to be together again. Magnus, I miss you. She says and tries to caress my bicep.‘I’m not interested, Claire.’‘But I don’t want to be with anyone else.’‘Claire, you say that now, but you will eventually meet your mate and want to be with him. I’m going to be late for class. I’ll see you around.’Claire’s eyes well up, and she storms off to her class.At lunchtime, I head to the library and pull Pipsqueak aside.‘I heard about what happened at your wolf ceremony. Are you alright?’Of course, the entire school would know about it.‘Yeah, I’m fine, but I need to update you on everything else. Nina told her boyfriend, Moss, about the curse. He has told his friend Hank, and

‘He needs to stop shifting. What if one of these shifts kills him?’ Mother cries as I come down the stairs.‘Mum, please, I had no control over the shift. My wolf wouldn’t even listen to me, even after we shifted.’‘You realise if you have no control over your wolf and you are shifting against your own will and your wolf’s only plan is to kill people, the council will demand you be locked up in the dungeon. Not only that, you may lose your rank as Alpha, and they would then give it to Flint.’ My father says in a severe tone. ‘They have already summoned me to see them today, probably because you almost attacked school students yesterday.’ He says, slamming his fist on the table. He falls back into his chair and rests his forehead in his hand in frustration.‘But I didn’t attack anyone. No one got hurt.’‘You were going to attack someone, though. Students stated you were trying to break down a door to get into a classroom. You terrified everyone at the school. If it weren’t for Nina, yo
