Once Upon An Alpha のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

RoseOne of the surviving elders, with the assistance of Matt, performed the ceremony. It was short, but it echoed in all of our hearts. We had a graveyard, but it was not large enough to accommodate everyone we lost. The new cemetery was now where one of our flower and herb gardens used to be. It was the only place that had enough space and was not on top of the village. One by one, we walked by, each one saying goodbye and thanking them for their contribution to our pack. My dad, Matt, Harriet, a few warriors, and a couple of regular pack members covered each body with my dirt as the last pack members said goodbye to them. My mom trailed behind, placing wildflowers on each of the graves. Heather stood beside me with her finger intertwined with mine while we watched the depressing repetition. She squeezed my hand and pulled me to walk away. I let her lead me. I knew she wanted to get away from there. After all, she could have died and then been buried in that field i

Unknown AlphaI was pacing the border of Silver Crescent in my wolf form, trying to focus on why I came ahead of my pack. However, after watching over my mate, my mind became foggy. All I wanted to do was reveal myself, but I knew this was best for her. I was wandering close to the southern border, trying to force myself to focus on the task at paw. Trying to put me in the mind of a rogue. The forest was pretty dense here. Not a whole lot of clearings. It would make it harder to be spotted.Clearly, it was planned for the night of the Starlight Carnival. They picked the perfect night. The majority of the pack would be wrapped up in the Carnival, not even considering an attack as a possibility. This pack was an easy target. Honestly, I could see a couple of Alphas I know to prey on a pack like this. Certain wolves were just powerful and bloodthirsty. They gave other werewolves, especially, Alphas a lousy reputation. I refused to be like them.I started the head back

HarrietWhen we came upon Alpha Orion, it was entirely by accident. There he was, a beefcake perusing down our road with an air that was suffocating. We were on our way to do our first patrol since the attack.We couldn’t even mind link now that Alpha Dane was dead. Matt just felt like we should be doing a sweep, and I was hoping nothing would happen.Of course, we found him. It was one of the most uncomfortable moments in my life, only when my mom walked in on Matt and me for the first time; we had sex in my room coming in second. Damn, I would instead go back in time. My mom was furious, but at least I knew she wouldn’t snap my neck. Unfortunately, I did not have that guarantee with the Alpha.I watched my best friend walk away with her mate while I was left to deal with the ‘baby Beta.’ He was acting like a baby. Anger sliced at my insides; I felt like I was going to spew venom. I snatched his wrist before dragging him behind me in raging silence. I re

Orion I scoffed internally at Matt, he was going to attempt to pull something, and I wasn’t going to let him. He’s way too easy to read, and he thinks he could run a pack. More like they would run him.It was time to show my dominance once again and thwart whatever he was trying to pull. Also, it would let Rose take a breath away from the mate bond pulling at her.“Rose, go gather your pack. Harriet can go with her. Matt, you get to stay with me.” I smirked. Watching Matt’s confidant facade crumble was genuinely satisfying.Harriet’s face lit up. I knew I was giving her a break. She was babysitting the person who was supposed to be causing pleasure, not a migraine. It was a win-win situation, everyone but Matt was happy. Harriet clung to Rose’s arm, and I could feel my mate’s internal conflict. I knew the mate bond was causing her to be drawn to me.“Sounds go to me. I need to hear all the juicy details anyways.” Harriet was definitely ple

RoseWe sat in silence as the SUV bumped along the dirt road. Orion pulled out the hair tie securing his hair, and the smell of leather and cardamon threatened to fog my mind. My mind was already starting to feel like mush from the exhaustion sinking in. I hadn’t let myself acknowledge the heaviness in my body that begged me to slow down.“So...how long are you going to be in the car?” I hesitantly asked. I honestly had no idea how long it would take, but I felt like I should have.“It should take about three and a half hours.” He kept his eyes forward as we drove through the forest.“How did you get to Silver Crescent so early today then? I’m almost a hundred percent certain I caught a little whiff of you before the funeral.” I looked inquisitively at him.“I ran this morning. I beat my pack here.” He shot me a smile as we finally hit the pavement.“How are you not exhausted?” I mumbled.“How are you not exhausted, little flower?” He
