The car ride is quiet and thick with tension as I stay seated in the backseat with my arms crossed.

“We are not going to Aster Pack,” Mom says, glancing back at me for a split second.

“I don't care where we are going. I want answers and I want them now,” I grumble.

Mom sighs, turning her attention back to the road.

“Try not to get so emotional about it,” She states. My mouth drops in disbelief, and I lunge to her seat, and Dad is quick to use his arm as a shield for Mom.

I stare at my hand on the seat, then back at Dad.

“You think I will hurt her?”

Dad doesn't answer and I can't help but chuckle painfully before leaning back.

“Even in such a situation, you didn't leave the opportunity to belittle me,” I murmur, tearing my gaze off them.

“I'm not trying to belittle you. Whenever you get too emotional, it weakens your human self, and Inez takes that opportunity to take over,” Mom states.

Oh. Makes sense.

My mind swirls back to when Anthony insulted me. I woke up thinking I was asleep bu

  • The New Alpha Wants Me   085

    Sofia: The first thing I register is the weight, crushing me down bone deeply like I'm pressed between something. I can't breathe properly or move an inch, even when my eyelashes feel like they need permission to open. It's too quiet here. Too calm with no strong fragrance, instead something earthy. Just freshness. I force my eyes open, eyelashes brushing against the soft pillow as I take in my surroundings. Wood paneled ceiling, slanted roof with two windows, golden light is filtering through them, cascading softly to my left, illuminating floating dust motes as I find myself lying flat on my stomach on a mattress. I try to lift my head. A sharp bolt of pain rushes down my spine, tearing a gasp from me which comes out more like a whimper. My entire back burns, raw and aching, but centred on one agonizing point just below my shoulder blades. The blanket over me feels too heavy, like my bones are too frail to even carry their weight. My mind flashes with everything that happened.

    Sofia Vez The motel room smells like whiskey and fruit-like fragrance, a little too strong, that stirs discomfort low in my guts. The air is thick, suffocating even as I lie still in the bed, very aware of my mother's restless figure tossing and turning beside me. She is asleep yet very much fighting the demons. The ceiling fan is spinning so slowly, drawing the creaking sound I can't seem to ignore. I've been lying too still in the bed, waiting for hours to make sure both my parents are fully asleep. I quietly get up, glance at my father, who has made himself comfortable on the single couch in the corner. The small sound of his snores wafts in the room, and I take it as a cue to slip out of the bed and put on my shoes. They don't know I'm slipping out. They forbade me to go out, talk to Carlos or anyone, but I had called him from the phone at the reception earlier when I had the chance. I was worried about his reaction, but all he asked was if I was hurt. He cares for me deeply,

    Carlos povI didn't breathe.The world spins, every pulse in my body tenses up as I stare at Antonio's blank eyes, a silent mockery of my loss. Despite the blank expression on his face, I can very vividly picture the smirk of victory on his lips.Ethan stands back, his curious eyes fixed on me like he too, didn't expect to hear something about Sofia.“Carlos,” Marcel's voice fills me with chills. My heart pounds wildly in my chest as I refuse to keep my eyes off Antonio, like I can escape the mess he has left.“He… He was lying. A mere accusation to divert our attention from his crimes, which he failed to do,” I say in a steady voice, a low tone to sound unfazed.For a brief moment, Marcel says nothing.“Why would he claim such a thing about Sofia?” Ethan murmurs, more like a question to himself. “To hurt me. Did you not hear how he got the rogues in the Pack and helped them abduct Sofia? He wanted revenge. He lied even before dying just to make sure I'm not at peace,” I exclaim, sho

    His footsteps follow behind, fast and loud, until his hand clasps around my forearm, halting me before I can reach for the car's door.“This is what's become a wall between us. We never talked about it, but now, we must talk,” he insists.“There's absolutely nothing for you to say that I don't already know, and I have nothing to ask of you, so let's not start something we both know the answers to” I shrug my arm off his grip.“And what is that you think I'll say?” He asks, turning me to face him.My gaze hardens, the silence between us stretches, but he refuses to move.“You won't move?” I ask in a low snarl.He just tilts his head.“Fine. You want to hear it from my mouth? Perhaps it's going to satisfy you, so here you go. I know I'm a big disappointment to you. A failure. A loser you refuse to look at. I know a mere sight of me fills you with rage!” I snap,“I know you blame me for Aljendro's death, and trust me, if I could go back in time and change everything. I would. Fuck! I wis

    Carlos Pov:I sit on the edge of my bed, elbows resting on my knees and fingers fidgeting with the ring as the weight of such a heavy truth presses down on me.I don't know what to do. I can't pick a side, but there has to be a way out of this where everything can be fixed without any more harm, because I don't know what I'd do if there's none.Every pulse in my face twitches the more I think about it. My phone buzzes again on the desk, its screen lights up with another message.“Alpha, one of the students, gained consciousness for a moment. He said something about new students in the Academy. Are you sure you don't want us to investigate the matter thoroughly?”I grab my phone and stare at the message for a brief moment before typing.“I know what I'm doing. Don't make me tell you twice.”I tap send and put the phone back. After last night's attack, I had ordered them to just tighten the security and issue an order to not roam around in the woods, but it's raising suspicion amongst t
