“What?! She can’t do that!” I say shocked. “Why would she do that?!”“She is the Alpha she can do whatever she wants, number 1. Number 2 YOU rejected her! She can’t trust you, so why the hell would she just let you be her second in command?!”“Because I was BORN for this job!” I scream. “It has been mine all of my life! I trained for it!” A tap on the open door made me stop and look up. Angie was standing there with Stuart right behind her.“Sorry, I hope I’m not... interrupting anything important.” She said as she walked in carrying a large box. “Alpha asked me to drop this off.” She dropped the box on my bed, and I looked inside briefly. My breath caught in my chest as I started pulling out all the clothes and personal effects I had left in her suite. There were even some pictures in here that originally had the two of us in it.But she ripped herself out of every one of them. I looked up as Angie got another box out and checked her phone. Glancing up I noticed Stuart going into my
*Abby POV*“Oh, who’s a pretty kitty?” Mariah cooed as she slowly ran a toy across the floor. The cat watched with interest and swatted at it every time it came close. I was looking over some papers and trying to get a sense of what the heck was going on without asking for help from my dad.Down the hall some of the guards and omegas had already started clearing out the Elder’s suite. Gamma Scott tried to call Veronica but she either ignored his calls or just didn’t have her phone with her. No matter, in an hour all of her things will be boxed up and put in storage.Then the contractors were coming in. Mom had already given me the carpet and wall colors she wanted, but she had no idea where they were moving, or that they were moving this quickly.A soft knock on the door resounded before my parents walked in. Dad looked at the cat on the floor a little surprised but didn’t say anything. He knew since I was a small pup that I loved animals, and I used to beg and beg for a pet. But he a
From his vantage point in the entertainment room, Brian watched Mason closely. What was he doing now? He watched as he picked up the flyer near the entertainment room door and read it. Brian was expecting him to be angry, maybe even throw a fit. But... he smiled.Why would he smile? Brian chewed his lip in thought and waited for Mason to leave. Instead of leaving though, Mason only went back to the couch and sat down; looking at his phone. Mason folded up the flyer and put it in his pocket, still smiling to himself.Wait a second... Brian pulled out his own phone, pulling up the photo of the flyer he had saved and read over it again.Oh hell!‘All wolves are invited.’All wolves mean Mason too! Quickly he texted his other friends, they need to do something! Angie replied first, stating that they could meet in her room. He had to get upstairs without being seen by the Ass; he glanced at him again. He was not paying attention, slowly Brian got up and left the room, sprinting up to the G
*Wyatt’s POV*I had to admit, dinner was nice. Ellie was right, I missed the company of others. Abby smiled at me as I sat beside her, I could tell she wasn’t back to her old self either. Not that she ever would be that same bubbly teenager who believed in destiny and true love again. Her face was slightly sunken in, a sign that she wasn’t eating or sleeping properly.Something must be worrying her. I frowned as the omega brought me my plate, Abby didn’t notice but she wasn’t served first as is protocol. I send a private message to the omega reprimanding her and pushed my plate over to Abby. The alpha is always served first, followed by the Luna and the alpha family then the betas. I guess since I was in training so long to lead this pack the omega forgot.The omega seemed like she really forgot, her face paled, and she hurried away as fast as she could. Dinner was quiet, and I learned that my mother was released from the cell, only for her to go right back in when she refused to join
*Abby POV*One more day until the start of the Beta Selection and I am just ready for it to be over. A gentle breeze blows in from the open window of my office and Shadow is stretched out in a patch of sunlight that is streaming through the window.I flipped through the large folder that Scott left for me. Rolling my eyes at the candidates he left for me I sigh again. It seems he really plans on making Jay his official recommendation. There is no way I will ever have him as my Gamma; he betrayed Wyatt in the worst way. Honestly, I know who I want as my Gamma, I just need to figure out how to introduce this person as a suitable Gamma to keep the pack calm.“Shadow what am I going to do?” I mumble as I let my head hit the desk with a dull thud. There is a knock on the door and without even looking up or thinking about it I call out for the visitor to come in. The first thing I notice is the strong scent of expresso and cream. That smell used to be my favorite and would brighten my whole
*Abby POV*The night is quiet and calm. I am standing in some woods I don’t quite recognize but they seem so very familiar. Why am I here again? Oh yeah. Shadow got out and I followed her. Ahead of me on the path I see Shadow looking at me, and I start to walk towards her. When I get close enough to pick her up, she scampers a little further away from me.“Come on, let’s go home.” I sigh. Not even caring that I have no idea how I got here or how to get back home. The most important thing right now is getting my cat. She mews at me again and runs further into the brush. I huffed but followed behind. For some reason, my nose is muffled; and I can’t smell her clearly. But this doesn’t bother me either.Only thing that matters is getting to her. As I am walking further the air feels misty, and my ears can’t pick up any of the forest animals. But I am not worried for some reason. Overhead the clouds are moving, and the moon starts to peek out from the cloud cover.Through the trees I see a
*Abby Pov*“The preparations are almost complete downstairs.” Beta Eve smiled as she sat in front of me as I sat at my desk looking at the results of the test. I wasn’t surprised at the top name on the list, Mason. What did surprise me was the second name. My brother, Wyatt.I thought he didn’t want this post? Did he change his mind? Glancing at the actual score I was taken aback, they both got a perfect score and was ranked in 1st place. The next person only missed one question... who was... my mouth dropped open!Angela Branch!Angie was ranked this high?!Sweeping my eyes over entire list I see Brian and Mariah also made the list. I slowly smile, I’m proud of my friends. “Wow.” I muttered. “This isn’t what I expected.” I admitted.“Yes, but you shouldn’t be completely surprised, Alpha.” Eve smiled. “You have always been surrounded by a special group of people.” She sighed, something was definitely on her mind.“What’s wrong?” I asked, slightly surprised.She smiled sadly. “Just thi
*Angela’s POV*Why am I so nervous right now? As I wait inside the small private tent, I am alone with my thoughts. Sure, I am confident in my fighting abilities, but hearing the crowd outside makes my heart flutter. I hate being the center of attention.Not to mention my parents are out there.I am very close to my mom, but dad.... even though I know he loves me he never really had much time for me. He was always busy training the other pack members and looking for his replacement. One of my earliest memories was of me running to my dad’s office, wanting to spend time with him. Mason had just told me he would take his dad’s place one day so I figured I would do the same. However, when I giggled to my dad that I would learn his work and be just like him one day he looked at me with a blank expression. No, he had said, gammas had to be strong, cunning, and he didn’t expect me to work hard and learn to take his place. He just wanted me to have fun and be his little girl.Years later I f
