All Chapters of Alpha of the Peak: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

P.o.V. TroiWith only a few weeks before the Maben Ball and the week of finals that ends the semester, we couldn't miss any school. Having to return before we were fully healed was difficult since our leg and back were still not a hundred percent. We weren't limping but strenuous activity was a challenge and we still had trouble even laying carefully on our back, much less sitting back on hard plastic seats. Everything else was healed well though and the only scar was the cut along our neck. Although many others treated it like a cool new tattoo to be marveled at.The extra attention would have really bothered us if we hadn't returned home before getting back to school. Those from our pack were so rarely touched by battles that they still seemed to think of them as glorious. It didn't help that rumors traveled faster than we did and everyone was telling huge wh

P.o.V. TroiSitting at their desk in Grey Peak, Troi was feeling restless by the end of the first week back to school. It seemed like everything was on hold and the entire world was holding its breath for their birthday. They couldn’t focus and their mind kept drifting and they found themself staring out of the window while tapping rhythmically on the desk or bouncing their legs. No matter how hard they tried to keep their attention on the work, they kept being drawn back to the snowy, moonlit lawn. Finally frustrated trying to force it, they shut their books and decided to go for a run.As they grabbed the bag they’d use to store their clothes, they mindlinked the patrol captain for the evening to let him know they would be roaming. While the warriors all knew their scent, the wrong wind direction had caused them to charge directly in fron

Alpha DarrenIt was a surprisingly quiet evening, so I should have known something was going to go wrong. Since Bo's mating ceremony was interrupted by the attack and the rogue band was decimated, everything had become increasingly calm. Tybris was growing restless and I was considering a run once our paperwork was done before settling in for the evening when a spark of anger flowed through the mate bond. Tybris was growing irritated and anxious as the anger simmered until it was a full boil. The feeling was very familiar, and I knew Fallon and Troi were at odds about something. Normally when they were just interacting I'd get small blips of annoyance, but this was extreme.I was almost to the door to go and find out what was wrong when Fallon slammed it open looking like she was charging into battle. She slapped the clipboard into my chest and said "Y

NarratorThe problem with blocking an area from mind links in an attempt to stop a specific person is the possibility that said person is not in that area. Unfortunately as Troi made their way upstairs, Luna Fallon was in her office getting work done for the morning. She was sure that, if Alpha Darren got his way as he hinted earlier, they would be occupied well into the morning. She was wrapping up some instructions to Gamma Gwen for deliveries that should arrive before lunch when a frantic mind link hit her from nowhere.Elder Micah sounded almost beside himself and even possibly out of breath, if such a thing could be conveyed through thought alone. He got a small amount of message through about Alpha Darren calling a meeting when Elder Eliza suddenly burst in demanding Luna Fallon's location. She quickly told them both where she was and they were i

TroiAs Patrick's eyes fluttered shut we moved quickly to catch him. He was surprisingly light so instead of setting him back in the chair, we lifted him onto the couch. He was breathing and had a steady heartbeat, but didn't seem to be waking up.We couldn't fully understand what had happened. Colm seemed to have been hurting Patrick somehow and there was something seriously wrong with him. Trajan had to speak directly to Colm to get it to stop but it didn't feel right. Colm didn't feel right. He felt sick.Thinking through it all we realized we needed help, but dad had to deal with mother and if we called for them she'd just accuse us of causing this intentionally. It took us a minute to remember that Jessica was working at the clinic tonight. She'd be able to come and check and get a doctor if it was nee
