The Alpha’s Second Mate 121| Charades.
Everyone turns to face the loud interruption. We see Sir Smith with an amused expression on his face, contrasting with the assertive tone that he used seconds ago."What is it, dad? Harry asks his father in a harsh tone. I notice how detached he's been from Sir Smith all throughout dinner. Like he's repulsed.I don't think it was the embarrassing tales or condescending remarks that Harry got from his father tonight that caused him to act so hostile towards him. I think it's because of the thing with Jeremy.One thing I know about Harry is that it's incredibly hard for him to go past things, especially lies and betrayal. I know that firsthand since I'm not really sure he's forgiven me. He loves me; of course, I know that.But the matter is trust; will you be able to trust me again? And has he forgiven me for breaking his trust? Probably not, or maybe. I'm not sure.And Sir Smith lied to Harry for years, looking at him face-to-face and still continuing to lie to him. Harry thought his b

"I want to do it again.” Harry says in an awfully serious voice, and my jaw drops."Wh-what?" That was not what I was expecting him to say. Not what I was expecting him to say at all.He wants to kiss me again. I thought he would say something like, ‘It was a mistake, and we shouldn't try it again.’"Isla, let's make this easier for ourselves. Let me kiss you, please.” He says in a desperate tone as he cocks his head to one side and leans down."But you're mad at me," I whisper against his lips. He's literally the one always glaring at me through the hallway with piercing eyes, as though he wants to kill me or get rid of me entirely.I'm still not sure what provoked the bathroom incident, but I'm sure as hell that he can't be serious about kissing me again. Right? He can't be. "Can't I be mad at you and still want to fuck you senseless?" My breath hitches as words refuse to come out of my mouth in that second. Even if any word were to escape from my mouth, it would probably sound lik
The Alpha’s Second Mate 123| Night In.
Everyone is excited. Harry, being the person that he is, never thought to replace the once-councillors that he had slain for some kind of reason.I'm Luna, and even though I love Harry and his weird methods of doing things, I can't let things go like that. So that is why I suggested we form a new council.We can't keep ruling on our own. We need a council. Harry always seems to think the opposite of what I'm thinking. He prefers it this way. Says there is a lesser chance of getting betrayed by another council member if there are no more council members.incredible flawed logic, but I love the man anyway.Everyone is gathered in the courtyard, and they are all aware of what's going to happen today. Harry makes a show to attend at the last minute with a frown on his face to show how much he doesn't appreciate this.Yet he finds his way to me and settles down in the throne-like chair next to me. "Hi," I mutter to him, and he grumbles under his breath.“Hey.”After that, the ceremony comm
The Alpha’s Second Mate 124| You Love Me Anyway.
"What do you mean by what? You guys want a day off, but we can't get any time off? That sounds awfully unfair.” Oliver crosses one arm over the other, and I huff."It's not unfair. We're girls, and we need breaks.” I stomped my leg on the ground."Oh wow. What a theory! So boys don't need breaks, right? That's what you're trying to say?” Harry speaks up, and I nod."Exactly!" My girls exclaim at the same time, and I nod my head."Well, I'm the alpha, and I decide what's what.” Harry says, and the boys hoot and holler in his favor. Lilah rolls her eyes, crossing over to where me and the other women are standing."Boys drool, and girls are cool.” She says in a pouty voice. Dylan laughs at her face."Sure. Like you're not the one drooling right now.” He says, and Lilah's palm instantly finds her mouth as she checks for drool. She doesn't find any. What she does find is a squad of men laughing at the obvious prank.Her eyes narrow into slits as she folds her arms together. "You're going t

"Isla, you look so pretty.” Sandra says to me, and I look at myself through the mirror.I do look pretty. I look beyond pretty. My cheeks look higher than they've ever looked before, and where my freckles are supposed to be, they seem spotless. I'm glowing; my hair is glowing; my aura is glowing. Every single thing about me is literally glowing.Why wouldn't they? It's my wedding day.Yes, Harry and I are finally getting married. We can’t keep living as co-parents and mates for the rest of our lives. We have to get her married. It took us three years to finally agree to it.Sandra and Denise are here in the room, helping me get ready. I was very much against the idea, but the two paid me no mind as they made up some speech about best friends always being there for each other and whatnot. stuff like that.Now they have to deal with my moodiness and awkwardness. I effing love them so much. "Thank you. I really appreciate this.” I say to the two of them in a very honest tone. They manage
The Alpha’s Second Mate 1| The coronation.
"The rest of our lives start now," Harry says to me with a smile, and I mirror his expression.After all our years of being together, it's finally happening. We graduate from high school today, and this is where our real journey starts.Everyone around us is engaged in conversations of their own, leaving Harry and I in our own world. It's always been this way, ever since we were kids.Even though the differences in our ranks are far apart, we couldn't care less about them. We've been friends for as long as I can remember. Though I can't really pinpoint the exact time when that friendship turned into something more, but I can say that I love it.Harry's coronation into the Alpha position takes place tonight. His father, Alpha Smith, decided that it was high time for Harry to take his position now that he was a grown man.I just can't wait. After Harry becomes Alpha, everything will be settled."Yes, you're right." I tell him as I link our fingers together.Nothing can ruin this for us.
The Alpha’s Second Mate 2| Mates? Oh, no.
It's been two days since the crowning ceremony, and I haven't seen Harry—I mean Alpha Harry. Though I'm constantly hearing about him.It seems like he has been taking on his Alpha responsibilities very well. Too well, in fact. According to random gossip in the pack, he has been very busy yelling at patrol guards and brutally sparring with fellow pack members. Maybe that's why he hasn't had the time to see me.All is forgiven and forgotten about what happened during his crowning ceremony. Maybe he was just having an off day; that's why he spoke rudely. Harry—Alpha Harry isn't a bad person. Which is why I am standing in front of his office door, about to knock and enter.I just need to gather my thoughts first and rehearse what I'm going to say: "Good day, Alpha Harry. I'm just here to check up on you. It's been a while, and I've heard you've been fitting into your new role perfectly.”Good, good, that was perfect. After that, a conversation will start, and we'll be back to normal.I ra

After Alpha Harry discovered that Lauren—Luna Lauren—was his mate, they mated immediately, with Luna Lauren getting full rights to her position.But Luna Lauren finds tormenting me more useful to her time than her Luna duties. Which is why, she has turned me into her personal rag. And the worst part of it all is that Alpha Harry is always on her side. Sometimes, he even goes the extra mile to punish me whenever I find it hard to carry out his mate's impossible tasks. I knew things would change after he became Alpha of the pack, but I didn't know that he would change along with things.I miss the old Harry. The nice one, the caring one, the one that stood up for me through all things, not the current Harry. This cruel being he's made himself to be, a leader that rules with an iron fist and a caged heart. Things weren't supposed to be like this."Why are you just coming in now?" Luna Lauren asks me as I wa
