บททั้งหมดของ Becoming the Female Alpha: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

My eyes were reddened as the tears continued to flow, and every so often, I would take a long sniff, a desperate measure to stop my nose from running.All I wanted was a proper homecoming; that was why I had informed them on time. I wouldn’t even make it on the day I planned, and I came a day later, yet no one would think of cleaning up my room.With teary, unfocused eyes, I surveyed the area—my room that looked more like an abandoned house, the type you see in haunted places. Only everything was still as I left it.The towel I had kept on the chair in my hurry to go out. The clothes on my bed that I hadn’t bothered to keep away.I was far from the house when Toby had ‘kidnapped’ me, and he didn’t let me out of his sight to go back to the pack to pick up anything or even tidy up.But that wasn’t what made me break down.It was the layer of dust that clung to every surface in the room like a spandex dress; the clothes that lay on my bed were already ruined, and I forgot to keep a white

“Maddie!” My mother scolded me, her face composed and her voice calm while I was losing my mind.“Father.” I jumped out of my seat, baffled by what I had just heard. “You can’t possibly be serious.”“Oh, my daughter.” He threw a smile my way; that gave me the wrong shivers, and right now looking at him was only getting me more riled up. “I am very serious. I have to see your mate before I decide if you have a part in this inheritance.”“Father, this is not an inheritance that you can throw out to anyone, father. It is my right, and I have worked hard for it.” I snapped, refusing to back down even though I could hear my mom tugging on my mindlink and trying to get me to calm down. “There is no one more deserving of it in this room than me.” I spat out, looking at the so-called siblings I had that were to be the better option, and I scoffed.“My pack, my rules. If you don’t like it, you can take the way back to wherever you came from.”“Father!” My eyes were blazing with fury as they we

“Of course, just say the word, and I will do anything for you.” Charlie said, the distance between the corners of his lips growing, and I nodded my head.I should be bolting out of here, with my heels touching the back of my head, but I needed his help and all the help I could get. Instead, I ground my leg and forced myself to stay there and even smile.“I know you are aware that I will be the next alpha, but I have been gone for some months, and I think it may have changed the pack’s view about me.” I began, my yes fastened on his face, observing even the slightest changes and how he was absorbing my words. “This is where you come in.”Charlie looked at me with squinted lids as if he were still trying to decipher what I was planning, but he nodded. “Sure, what can I do?”“I understand you have a good rapport with the pack, and you are the people’s favorites.” Charlie beamed at my words, his pearly white hinting a peak, and I knew I was on the right track. “I just want you to help me

I was red all over, almost competing with the anthocyanin in a ripe apple as I stared at the screen, waiting for Toby’s reply. I knew he had seen it—I had seen the typing bubble pop up as he started typing, but then it disappeared, and I was going crazy.Was it inappropriate?Shit, I knew I shouldn’t have sent him that, but I wanted to do something fun for a change, and I thought that would be the perfect idea.I guess I was wrong.I tapped on the picture, ready to delete it, when his message popped up.“Goddess, you are fucking beautiful!” With a fire emoji!My insides turned to jelly, the butterflies flapping wildly in my stomach, and I was kicking my legs on the bed in excitement.“I know right, I try.” I typed out a reply while trying to be subtle and not to give off the fact that my cheeks were literally stained red. I had to play it cool.“Of course, you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen or met.” I took one look at his message, and I was screaming to my pillow, but I

The air was charged with anticipation, the electricity cackling with every step I took, and it didn’t help the way I was feeling.My palms were wet with perspiration, little beads of sweat clinging to my forehead, but I made no effort to wipe them clean; instead, I focused on pulling my pants up to my waist.I should have told Toby. Maybe he would have helped me to relax; hearing his voice and cheers should be enough to calm my nerves, but I had kept my mouth shut, refusing to tell him.I had on camouflage shorts and a brown singlet, just something to hide the blood with, and I wrapped my hands with bandages.I could hear the excitement in the pack as they gathered outside where the fight was going to take place, and my legs were already leading me towards the window, but I stopped myself before I could go further.There was no need to put more fear in my body. I only needed to get over today, and I would be declared alpha.“Maddie.” Charlie called out from outside my room, where he h
