Semua Bab Alpha VS Alpha: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Rider The day felt like it was dragging on forever. I wanted to fast-forward time so I could have dinner with Sophia instead of being stuck in my office going over an endless amount of emails. I kept catching myself daydreaming about her. I couldn’t wait to see her again. Only twenty more minutes before I could finally call it a day and find her. I smiled at that thought. I wanted to make a good impression tonight, so I reserved the fancy dining hall for dinner. We used that one when we had important guests staying with us. It was much smaller than the main hall and way more intimate. It would give Sophia and me some privacy and the chance to get to know each other a bit better. I was a little embarrassed to admit it, but I didn’t know much about Sophia’s likes and dislikes. I was kicking myself now for spending so much time in the past avoiding her. Hopefully, tonight I could change that. I wanted to know everything there was to know about that little blonde spitfire. I wa

Dream*** I was walking down a long hallway that never seemed to end. The walls were painted black, and several old pictures hung on both sides. Doors lined the walls, and candles were the only sources of light. I didn’t see a single window in the place. A cold gust of wind blew by, causing an eerie feeling to wash over me and a cold chill to run down my spine. I felt like I was being watched, yet when I looked both ways down the hall, there was no one else there. Where was that cold breeze coming from when there wasn’t a single window in sight? “Hello?” I shouted, my voice echoing down the long hallway. No one answered, but after a minute, I heard the sound of a door creaking open further down the hallway. I picked up my pace as I moved toward the sound. Where was I? How did I get here? And what happened to my clothes? I was now wearing a long white flowy dress instead of the black leggings and T-shirt I remembered putting on before leaving the packhouse. “Sophia...” The fa

Rider We loaded the injured warriors into the second SUV and sent them ahead with the extra warriors we had brought. They had started to regain consciousness before they left, and their injuries seemed to be healing fairly rapidly. Things were looking promising for their recovery, but I still wanted them seen by a doctor to be on the safe side. Once they were gone, Emma, Matty, and Conrad explained what had happened, which made me furious. They basically confirmed that the rogues and vampires were trying to capture Sophia to get revenge on her parents. The entire thing didn’t sit well with me, especially after the dream Sophia had. I was angry, but my wolf was next-level furious. He didn’t like that Sophia was a target and was hell-bent on keeping her safe. Which wasn’t exactly an easy task given how difficult she could be. Sophia was quiet the entire time Emma, Matty, and Conrad spoke. She might not admit it, but I could tell the dream had shaken her up. She kept subconsc

Sophia I woke up feeling overheated like I was wrapped in the thickest and heaviest blanket. As I blinked my eyes open, I noticed I wasn’t in my room. I glanced over my shoulder and smiled when I saw Rider sleeping soundly next to me. His arm was draped over my waist, and his body couldn’t get any closer to mine even if he tried. Memories of what happened flooded my mind, and my cheeks instantly flushed. I told him I liked him and wanted to try to make it work. I put myself out there, and he welcomed it with open arms. He seemed relieved to hear the words coming from my mouth. Once I had finally said the words he was waiting to hear, it was like a switch went off. He couldn’t get me undressed fast enough. We both needed each other in a way I had never experienced before. The sex was desperate and full of need. It was amazing. It was intense and passionate, but nothing like the last time. We bypassed foreplay altogether and just needed to feel each other in the most intimate wa

Sophia When Rider and I arrived at the northern border, the first thing I noticed was the smell. It was familiar and alluring. My wolf was hellbent on finding the source of it. Once we did, Malia froze in shock. It was Cole. He was lying in the tall grass, unconscious and injured. As soon as my wolf found him, it was like she completely forgot about everything else that was going on around us, including the fight. All she was focused on was him. She whimpered when she saw how severe his injuries were and wouldn’t leave his side. I asked her what was wrong, but she couldn’t answer; she just kept telling me she needed to protect him. I also felt something when I saw it was him, but I figured it was because we had missed him for all these years. Cole was like a brother to me growing up. Malia finally did snap out of her shocked state when Rider saved our ass from one of those hybrids. We had been so distracted that we let our guard down, and it could have cost us our
