All Chapters of Alpha Mine: Chapter 101 - Chapter 107

The next day, a familiar pair of brown eyes were the first thing I saw when I woke up. I hadn’t even realized I’d fallen asleep or how long I had been out for, though Zahori’s irritated expression made it clear I had probably overdone it. After Kathy left, I spent the night replaying our conversation over and over in my head. I couldn't get over the audacity of her asking something of me when neither of my parents had ever been there when I needed them most. Somewhere in the middle of all that bitterness, I'd eventually fallen asleep. Now it was morning again. Let's see what crap today has in store for me. Because apparently yesterday hadn't been enough. Slowly, I pushed myself upright and rubbed at my eyes as sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow across the room. “Good. You’re finally awake,” Zahori said impatiently. She approached the bed and tossed a dress onto the mattress near my legs. I raised an eyebrow at it before shifting my gaze back to her. “Yo

You'd think that stepping out of the gloomy prison palace I'd been stuck in for the last day or so would feel liberating. That I'd feel a twinge of joy at finally seeing the birds soaring overhead, gliding across the sky far freer than my miserable self could ever hope to be. But those feelings never stood a chance. Why? Because the moment I stepped outside the palace, I saw him. No, scratch that. I felt him. Sparks ignited across my traitorous chest as my wolf caught sight of the arrogant asshat known as Lucas Visconti. He was leaning casually against a Porsche, dressed in dark navy jeans, a black leather jacket, a black V-neck, and matching black shoes. The smug look plastered across his face made me want to march over there and wipe it clean off. "What are you doing here?" I asked, stopping a few feet away from him as irritation crawled up my chest. Zahori had stayed by the door, keeping watch from a distance. William and Chanelle stepped beside me, subtly positioning themselv

The moment I stepped out of the Porsche and into the freezing morning air, I wanted nothing more than to climb back inside, slam the door shut, and pretend this tournament didn't exist. Honestly, the whole situation was infuriating. I was being offered up like some kind of tribute in exchange for my own freedom. Sorry, but this wasn't District 12, and this girl—kick-ass as she was—didn't have a humble bone in her body, let alone enough humility to volunteer herself away. A gust of icy wind swept through the trees as I shut the door behind me. I crossed my arms over my chest and shivered. The thought of freezing my ass off through this entire tournament had my mood swinging from mildly annoyed to one minor inconvenience away from committing mass murder. At this point, I wouldn't have minded going on a full-blown rampage and drop-kicking every Lycan in sight. Who knew? Maybe the Lycan King would decide I was completely insane and send me home on the spot. I sighed and followed Chanel

The first match was over. Nathaniel had won, and Jared—may he rest in peace... or pieces—had been escorted off to the dogs. Whatever that meant... I wasn't exactly eager to find out.The second match hadn't even started, and I was already on the verge of passing out from exhaustion. Sure, I wasn't the one sprinting across a frozen wasteland, but watching my friends compete had my heart working overtime.From my place among the Lycan crowd, I watched Chanelle and William greet Nathaniel with loud cheers and hearty pats on the back as he made his way toward them.The whole time I watched them, something inside me simmered slowly. I just wasn't sure what.My attention shifted to the right when I caught Lucas approaching from the corner of my eye. The moment he stopped beside me, every muscle in my body tensed."Michelle."His voice was low and dangerous as he tilted his head down to look at me.I immediately averted my gaze, looking past him to Nicholas, who stood several feet away.
