All Chapters of Mated to My Alpha Bully: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

Chapter 1~ Alyssa ~The Moon Goddess must have a cruel sense of humour, because she gave me a brilliant mind, two dead parents, and no wolf.Every other graduate in Terracotta Valley High School had shifted by now. They had all turned eighteen and felt their wolves rise under their skin like a second heartbeat, and they had run through the pine forests above Venus City while their packs howled them home. I turned eighteen in March. I sat by my bedroom window under the full moon that night while Grandma slept in the next room, and I waited for the ache in my bones that everyone talked about. It never came. No voice in my head, no fire in my blood, nothing. Just me, Alyssa Flemming, the wolfless scholarship girl with a graduation speech to give."And now," Principal Regie's voice rang through the Great Hall, warm and proud, "please welcome our student body president, Alyssa Flemming."A few people clapped.

Stay small. Stay quiet. Stay invisible until moonset, when the warriors would open the gates and I could slip away down the forest road and pretend tonight never happened. I had three years of practice at being invisible. I was

He lowered his head and pressed his mouth to the curve of my neck, right where my pulse was racing, and a shiver ran through my whole body that had nothing to do with the cold lake air."You smell like rain," he muttered against my skin, almost to himself. He sounded confused, almost annoyed about it. "Why the hell do you smell like rain?"I didn't know what to say, so I said nothing. I just watched him in the dusty mirror, his dark head bent over my shoulder, his golden eyes half closed, and I wondered if I was dreaming. I had imagined this so many nights, lying awake in my narrow bed while Grandma snored softly through the wall. My imagination had never come close.He turned me around to face him and kissed me again, harder this time, and I stopped thinking at all.The silver dress slid from my shoulders and poo
