The Alpha's Burden のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 6

Alpha Zack POVI had waited years to find my fated mate. At thirty-two I was considered the age that I should have selected a chosen mate. The Elders in my Pack – the Red Moon Pack - knew better than to push me to take a chosen mate. Many females had been paraded in front of me over the years, but something always held me back. I knew she was out there. I just needed patience.So here I was, once again getting ready for another Mates Gala. This year it was being hosted at the Oak Pack.

Some were smiling encouragingly, some were smirking. I could tell the jealous bitches were smirking that I was not getting what I wanted.I could feel the sparks between Zack and me.
