The Alpha And The Mistake Novels & Stories

It went ahead of us the whole way — door to door, house to house, faster than we were moving. Lisa kept her chin down and her eyes on the ground in front of her feet, walking careful, like her one job was not to run. At no point did I put a hand on her. The doors of the Alpha House stood open at the top of the rise with a man either side, and both stood aside before we were near them. Callum's in there. Drake's in there. My desk has the thread on it. The cloth off the branch. The green strip off that window. And a confession that stopped making sense to anybody in this territory two days ago.

I was surprised by that. "Then step forward." I moved beside Skyler, and Marcus took our joined hands. "Before this pack and under this moon, I recognize Skyler Voss as Alpha and Wren Mercer as his mate. Together, you lead. Together, you serve. Together, you build our future." The pack howled—a chorus of acknowledgment, of loyalty, of welcome. Skyler turned to face them, my hand still in his. "I accept the role of Alpha with humility and determination. I promise to serve you, protect you, lead you with everything I have. And I promise to listen, to learn, to grow into the Alpha you deserve."

Riven knocked twice on the east wing door. The tone of the knock said urgent. I went to the door. He handed me a message. His face said he had read it and it was what I thought it was going to be before I read it. I read it. Veyne had sent a message to every Alpha in every allied territory. It said the vessel was destabilized and dangerous. It said the completion had been forced and not consensual. It said the Alpha King of my territory had been compromised by a supernatural entity and his territory should be quarantined until an independent council could assess the situation.

The air left my lungs without permission. I flipped to the next image. Then the next. The gym, the couch, the city beyond the glass all blurred at the edges. Me. And Liam. The exact angle. The exact framing. The same lies I had been forced to watch destroy my life four years ago. My fingers tightened around the photos, crumpling the edges without me noticing. My heartbeat slowed in a way that felt wrong, too controlled, too heavy. “I recognize those,” I said quietly. The man watched me carefully. “They are the ones used on me by Alpha Derrick.”

I walk to the end of the platform and take Spencer in my arms, my dad placing a kiss on my cheek before I head back over to Axel. He leans down placing a kiss on Spencer’s head and also mine looking down at both of us, in this moment I knew this is where I was exactly meant to be. After all the pain and suffering I had endured during the beginning of my life, I have finally found who I really am. No longer am I, The Alpha Kings Mistake. ~The End~

’ I swore. That did it. I disentangled myself from Keila’s grip – carefully – and spat right back at her. “Yes, I did. I’m an Alpha. I am the most powerful Alpha in the world,” I admitted, only realising my mistake after it was too late. The silence that followed told me just how big of a mistake I’d made. Was this the slip-up that would end it all?

Just like the woman I murdered to take everything she had. “Do you know her?” Alpha Gray’s voice cut through my spiraling thoughts, low and firm. His gaze bounced between me and her. My throat tightened. I couldn’t let the past rise now. Not here. Not in front of all these people. “It was a mistake,” I said quickly, forcing a tight smile. “I thought I did. But I don’t. I’m sorry. Who is she?” “She’s one of the warriors in my pack,” Alpha Gray answered, his eyes narrowing slightly like he didn’t quite buy my words.

“Nova promised—promised I’d be protected, that it wouldn’t matter, that you’d forgive her, forgive me… Please, Alpha, I am begging you. I made a mistake. I see it now. Please, I will do anything to make this right. Anything.” “You unlocked her cell,” I state calmly, voice low. He shudders, pressing closer to the ground. “I didn’t think—I didn’t know! I swear! I panicked! Please, please, I was stupid. I know I was wrong. I will pay. I’ll do whatever you want. Anything.” A low murmur runs through the crowd. “You already had position,” I counter, voice steady. “You had a place here.” “I am grateful, Alpha! I am! I just… I…” His voice cracks, tears welling. “Please don’t exile me. I’ll serve. I’

"It's okay, Aaron. We all make mistakes. But it's never too late to change. Let's do this together. Let's go to Norway and meet my stepmother. Let's take our fate into our own hands." The four alphas nodded, their faces set with determination. They knew it wouldn't be easy, but they were willing to try. They were willing to do whatever it took to be free. Alexa's hands trembled slightly as she dialed the phone number, her heart racing with anticipation. She put the phone on loudspeaker, and the four alphas leaned in, their eyes fixed on the device. The phone rang twice before a regal voice answered, "Hello, Alexa. It's been a while."

ZADEN I don't make mistakes. Not because I think I'm perfect. But because I learned a long time ago that mistakes in my world have consequences that go way beyond personal embarrassment. An Alpha who slips up doesn't just embarrass himself. He puts two hundred and sixteen people at risk. So I don't slip up. I read every room before I walk into it. I see problems before they become problems. I act before things go sideways. It's not a skill anymore. It's just how I function.
