Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Heart Of Ice Alpha: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

*Atlas* I waited with bated breath and I watched my mate mull over my question. Her deep brown eyes were contemplative and shining. She looked so beautiful tonight in that black dress but she always looked beautiful. It didn’t matter what she wore and I liked when she looked like herself. But tonight she looked regal, like a queen. Finally, Aria sighed and smiled up at me. She shook her head. “No, I don’t,” Aria said and I felt my heart somersault, this is great news. I went to kiss her but she stopped me with a strong hand on my chest. “But, it seems like you have a lot of secrets… so I still don’t know if I want to accept you.” She explained and I should have known a smart girl like her would see through my facade. I hated to lie to my mate but it was too dangerous to tell her the truth now. Once everything was settled then we would be able to be happy together. “What do you want to know?” I asked and put my hands on her shoulders comfortingly, smiling down at her. She ponder

Rebecca's POV: My phone rang and I pulled it out of my purse to answer it with a heavy sigh. The ringtone was the one I had chosen for my parents and they never called for any good reason. I pressed accept and held the phone to my ear. “What do you want?” I said sharply and my mother scoffed. “There’s a car waiting outside the academy. Get in it,” she said sternly and then hung up. I shook my head and made my way to the large gates. My usual driver was waiting outside and opened the door for me. I slipped into the back seat, and the drive back to my family's estate was a quick one. It was a large house on one of the tallest hills in the neighborhood. The columns were in an old royal style that my parents never got over. Our garden was immaculately kept as a gardener trimmed some of the rose bushes. The car door was opened for me and I stopped, my heels clacking on the stone. I walked up the ornate stairs and when I got to the large entryway my father’s beta opened my door wit

The two continued to eye each other with a tense stance. My mom rolled her shoulders back, standing up straighter, and had no fear in her eyes. She knew she could win, she was the toughest warrior in the South after all. The other people in the hospital ward watched as Rebecca grabbed at her now broken arm in pain but it looked like she was putting on a show. Nobody had expected my mother to break her arm, not even me. Alpha Bernard looked like he wanted to punch her. His arm started to raise in a fist, it shook in the air, and then he returned it to his side with a frustrated sigh. My mom gave him a triumphant look. We all knew he wouldn’t hit back. Only a fool would start a fight with my mother, she hadn’t lost a battle in over ten years. Not a single Alpha could defeat her, and they wouldn’t try anymore. On top of that, he would know my father’s wrath and didn’t dare inspire it. “You should leave punishing my daughter to me,” Alpha Bernard said, and my mother scoffed before turn

*Atlas* As soon as I was back I knew something had happened. It didn’t take me long to figure out that Rebecca had attempted to kill Aria, almost succeeding. I had never wanted to kill a woman before, and never this badly. And I would succeed where she failed… Fury and rage coursed through my veins. I couldn’t help but blame myself. The feeling was hot in my body. I should have seen this coming and stayed around Aria so I could project her as much as I possibly could. I knew that Rebecca had it out for my mate; I should have put a stop to this long ago. I should have put a stop to this in the first battle class when the two girls were fighting. It was obvious even then that Rebecca was out for blood. Valeria had mentioned this and I cursed myself for not listening. Knowing that Aria was wolfless, she was worried that she would be a target. Even Valeria admitted she was a great warrior, but that didn’t make up for the fact that she was wolfless. Beyond that, Veleria understood tha

*Aria*“Are you there?” I asked my wolf. “Yes, Aria. What’s wrong?” She asked and I felt nervous about asking her what I wanted to ask next. I squared my shoulders and let out a shaky breath. “Would I… Would I be able to shift today?” I asked and my wolf let out a laugh. “Yes, you would. Let’s do this.” She answered and I felt a new sensation fill my body. It was like my soul was trying to escape my body. My body started to shift and grow, it was much easier than I thought it would ever be. I was grateful to the goddess for blessing me with such a strong wolf.Judy watched me as I shifted and it felt kind of embarrassing until I saw she was doing the same. Her wolf was a light blonde, just like her hair, and lithe. She looked almost acrobatic and very stunning. Her eyes were icy blue just like Atlas’s. Once I had fully shifted I wondered what I looked like and made my way over to the river by the field. Judy joined me at my side and I gazed at my reflection. My wolf was whi
