Blood flowed faster than I had ever seen in my life from Nadine's body. I raised my head up slowly to look at the Alpha and his cold expression, with blood dripping from his claws and some spilled on his face, made me shudder, this man just killed someone and he didn't look remorseful at the slightest.My eyes were wide open, my lips were quivering and the room immediately felt so cold that I started shivering. I stared at Nadine's body in terror. Though Nadine betrayed me and turned to my bully after I was rejected by Zayne but she was still my friend at a point in time. She used to be in my group of friends, no matter what I didn't think she deserved to die like this, by the claws of the Alpha.My breathing quickened and I started gasping for air, unable to take my eyes off the lifeless body in front of me. My breathing suddenly became shortened and it became difficult to catch my breath. I started gasping harder, my eyes watering as I struggled more to catch my breath. "Untie her.

Zayne stood up from the couch and with slow determined steps walked towards Mason, who was still standing behind Jonathan."What are you doing here?" Zayne asked in a booming and commanding tone, when he was now standing in front of him.Jonathan looked over to me on the other side of the room, with a questioning look on his face and a panicked one on mine."I asked what are you doing here, Mason?!" Zayne asked again, raising his voice this time.Mason moved from behind Jonathan and stood in front of Zayne, "I came to see Dahlia. You got any problem with that?" "Get out." Zayne commanded."The last time I checked, this was not your house, Marshall, neither were you Dahlia." Mason replied, not looking threatened by Zayne's icy glare."And the last time I checked, you were never invited here. Now get the fuck out Klein, before I destroy your pretty face with my fists." Zayne said and knowing him, I was sure he wasn't joking. I decided it was time for me to intervene, I quickly walked t

My grandmother glared at me when my fork clanged on the plate. "What's wrong with you?" My grandmother asked in an irritated tone."Who?" I asked Aunt Kristen."Who what?" She asked me back, confused."Who did you say is the Alpha's brother?" "The Alpha's brother? Mason?" Aunt Kristen said, and continued eating. "Do you know him?" I was still in shock so she had to hit her fork on the plate before I could comprehend her question."Huh? No. I-I don't know him." I denied, trying hard not to look at her face. She was very good at catching lies.The Alpha is Mason's older brother. The vicious and brutal Alpha? The Alpha who wanted me out of the pack before he could merge the pack.What if....?What if he approached me on purpose?I really did not understand what attracted Mason to me. He was completely out of my league. We barely talked in school. No, scratch that, we never talked to each other at all. I just saw him as one of the numerous guys who would never look or glance at me.But

I got home feeling sad and bummed out because I had to sit out choir practice. I know my voice was okay, Kendall just decided to pick on me. I was scared that this was how it's going to be, Kendall would continue to pick on me and frustrate my efforts in the team, until I'm forced to quit.I sighed heavily as I got on the staircase to head to my room."Why are you sighing so heavily?" My aunt asked, though it didn't sound like a question, it was more like a statement.She was eating taco salad and that made me remember that I skipped lunch because I hadn't been in a good mood since after the choir practice."You smell so terrible. Like anxiety." Aunt Kristen pointed out, scrunching her nose in disgust.I forced a small smile and turned to go to my room but what my aunt said next stopped me, "You're coming with us for the pack meeting tonight."I froze and turned to face her."What?" "You heard me." She said in a sing song voice and continued eating her meal."Why?" I had to ask, wond

Zayne's POVAfter Russell's question made me realize I've not been as excited to be Kendall's mate as before, my mood became even more somber.I was now torn between following my heart and my feelings, and disappointing my parents, my father and my late mom, or doing the opposite and becoming the Alpha like they've always wanted for me. Something I've always wanted for myself too. I wanted the power and authority that came with being an Alpha.We just finished football practice and I glared at Mason throughout, I was sure he knew I was glaring at him. He was nothing but a pathetic liar."Zayniee! Let's party tonight!" Jayden said, putting his arm around my shoulders."No." I answered curtly."Why are you always in a shitty mood? Such a joy killer." Jayden complained."Because everything and everyone is shitty. And no, I'm not partying." "There's a party?!" Jayson came along."Yes, there is. At Clinton's house and we're invited. Actually, he specifically invited Zayne but I told him i
