All Chapters of The Cursed Alpha : Chapter 51 - Chapter 57

VIOLET Wolf hunting was not what I thought it was.I held the weapons, but my arrows were hitting nothing. Brian blurred into a puff of black, vanishing before I could hit home. A target so big and I was still hitting air? Disgraceful.But Brian insisted that practice would make it perfect so we continued going at it. He would give me a head start, I would run, he would chase, then I would try to hunt him. I would miss the entire time and get caught. Then we would go at it again, rinse and repeat.For what felt like the hundredth time, Brian's paw pinned me to the brown earth.I lay there defeated, uncaring of the leaf bits that would stick to my hair and skin. “There must be something you're not telling me, something I'm not doing right.”“There's always something you're not doing,” he answered simply.“Wouldn't it be easier to Just. Tell. Me?” I ground out, close to unleashing a full-blown tantrum.“The trial will be anything but easy, this is good practice.”“Urrrrrrrgg,” I would

VIOLET The snow was inches deep, but I'd gotten accustomed to running through it. The trick was to move the other foot before the first one rested. Like running on air.Surprisingly, I had the advantage on the snowy fields, gliding across while Brian had to plow through. He was still fast, but not fast enough.The disadvantage was that I would tire out quicker, these wolves were made for snow. The first full moon had come and gone, and it was almost time. I had stalled for as long as possible; I'd been to the ends of the trial grounds with Brian, and no, he didn't chase me down there, it was more of a side-by-side tour. I had trained repeatedly on the snow, and there was no more fear of wandering to my death.Plans were in place and I'd taken no definitive action yet, but now, I'd run out of time.My heart pulsed in pain, and within me, my other half howled in defiance. Well I was the boss around here, she would get with the program whether she wanted to or not.Brian caught up to m

VIOLETDane was here.He never left. It had been three days, no Brian, no more Calvin. But everyday like a sentinel, Dane was seated here.Keren didn't come anymore and that worried me even more than Brian's absence. Did she decide not to come on her own? Or was she being kept away for her own safety? Like I could ever harm the poor woman. I had to make do with Dane’s less-than-good cooking. He would lock me in my room, prepare his abomination, and let me out, taking care to monitor the spoons and plates.His eyes followed every movement and right now, it was even more frustrating.“You could come along when I have my bath too,” I retorted sarcastically.“The Alpha will never allow that,” he said simply, eyes still following every journey of my wooden spoon from my plate to my mouth.Like it was something he would do if the Alpha permitted it. He said nothing to my grimace of horror.“You could as well lick his heels in service,” I uttered in pure disgust. He looked me right in the

VIOLET The moon was almost full.Tomorrow night at this time, I would stand at a start line that would define my future or simply dictate if I was to have any.I was restless, and rightfully so.With an excuse I couldn't remember, I'd left dinner. Even Keren’s cooking wasn't welcome tonight. I'd gratefully found out that she wasn't avoiding me at all, she had simply caught a cold and the time had only coincided.There was a light knock on my door, and the wood opened to reveal Brian. My mate had been quite attentive this past month and like a fresh new bud learning to stretch, we were learning to be friends.We had our moments of tenderness, but it never became more. He was letting us take it slow and I wished he would just hurry up. Every glance held promise and every slight touch told me I was moments from deciding for us, but I've been able to hold back.He leaned against the doorpost watching me with sympathetic eyes. “Nervous?”I wasn't nervous; I was jittery and scared, and I w
