Chapter One
Alexander
The idea of ever finding my fated mate, I doubt it is going to happen. I don’t even try to think about it anymore because I have no clue what I’m even going to be able to do about it. I don’t know if the one thing that I need to do is to make sure that the hands of evil-doers will never have my pack. I know so many people are after my head, and I know that I could die at any moment, but I don’t allow it to get to me. I will NOT allow it to get to me because how could I allow something like that to EVER happen. I keep thinking that maybe this is just the road that we will have to go down but the other part of me wonders if it is even the right thing to do. I know how badly this all could end if someone turns against me.
Would someone turn against me?
I don’t even want to think about that happening because it is a high possibility. I don’t want to think about it happening that way though, but I know sometimes there isn’t things that I can do about it. I know what it’s like to have people come after you and try to destroy everything that you have ever cared about. I keep thinking about how I’m going to make things about what I’m going to do with the people that I know might end up destroying everything that I have ever cared about.
I know that the only thing that I can do is make sure that nobody stands in my way.
“Alpha.” My Beta, Jason, murmurs as he approaches me, “We have been seeing a lot of Rogues by the border and I think the patrol needs to be upped. Is it okay for me to send out more troops?”
I think about it for a split second when I end up nodding my head, “Yeah, I think it’ll be fine. I think that we just need to come to the conclusion of where we need this to go. I haven’t been completely sure what has been going on, but I can tell that you’re thinking ahead. I think that I should go out and look as well.”
He doesn’t look too sure about that, “Alpha, it is quite dangerous to allow yourself to go out when there are so many people who are out to kill you. I understand that you’re worrying about our pack, but I don’t think this is the way it has to go. I think you should stay here.”
“I can’t do anything with how things are going.” I correct him, knowing that he is trying to look out for me but I’m not a child, “it’s okay. Don’t worry about me, I can handle myself. If anything, I need to make it clear that if we do this, I need to make sure at least that you’re going to have my back if something does go wrong.”
He nods his head, “Of course, Alpha. I’ll go with you just in case. It seems like the Rogues want something and I’m not going to just give it to them.”
I know what he means by that, and I end up jumping to my feet. I know what I’ve been through, and I know what I’ve been thinking about. I can’t be completely certain of where this might go but I do know what I’m going to do about this. I need to make sure that the Rogues do not infiltrate the land because if they do, it might be the worst thing that ever happens.
Rushing to my feet, I follow Beta Jason out of my office, and I ignore the women who are gawking at us. I have no idea what they are thinking but they must think that I’m somehow going to do something to them. I know that they hope that I would pick them as a mate, but I don’t care about that at all. I know that the only thing that I can do about this is to make sure that they know that they are not worth it.
Not to me.
The only person that I want is my fated mate and I understand how I am feeling about this, but I couldn’t be completely certain about it. I just know that there are things that I want and what I will do to get it. I have no problem with making sure that everyone knows what I will and won’t put up with, but I think that some of them have been starting to think about how I haven’t picked a mate soon.
I know the Council is getting up my ass about it right now. I know that there was nothing I could do to appease them besides picking a mate, but I know that I can’t do anything about it. I just keep thinking about what I need to do about it. Maybe the thing that I need to do is fall for someone, but even that is hard to do.
I don’t know what kind of mate that I would want but I don’t want someone who is weak. I can’t always be there to protect her, but I need to know she is going to be safe. I can’t be completely certain about it though, so I have to just make sure that she knows where I’m going with this.
“I sense more Rogues.” Beta Jason murmurs, “I think we need to be careful.”
“I know, I sense them as well.” I tell him, wishing that I didn’t feel this way, “I think we might have to deal with that later.”
I wasn’t going to think much about it because how in the world could I expect someone to do something when we are suddenly attacked. Rogues charge us from the border, looking savage and feral. My body is prim with excitement, my blood coursing hot through my veins as I am going to do everything in my power to make sure that they don’t fuck with us. I don’t even have to shift, grabbing one by the throat and snapping their neck. I toss them aside as more wolves charge at me, knowing it’s not a good idea to take me on one-on-one.
I shift almost immediately after that, doing everything in my power to make sure that nothing else bad happens. My paws hit the ground as I defend myself against the Rogues, killing them. Unfortunately, they have decided to continue to play dirty as they are coming from all directions, knowing it’s going to be hard for me to defend myself that way. One jumps on my back and sinks its teeth into my neck. It’s a good thing that I have a stiff frame, or this would have screwed me completely. I kicked him off of me, slamming him into a tree and snapping his spine. The Rogue releases a loud howl of anguish as it collapses to the ground and Beta Jason does the finishing kill.
It's not so hard to destroy them, hating how it has come to this.
But just as I take a step forward, something doesn’t feel right. My legs crumple beneath me, sending a shiver of fear down my spine because I have no idea what’s going to happen right here and now. I kind of thought that was the only thing that we would be able to do. I hit the ground hard, seeing Beta Jason rushing towards me, the fear on his face becoming more and more evident. I open my mouth to tell him that it’s going to be okay but it’s like my mouth has grown completely dry and I can’t get the words to come out like I wanted them to.
Something is really wrong, and I don’t know what to even say or do. I could be royally fucked right here and now, and I have no idea what I even want to do about it. I don’t know if there IS anything that I can do because it seems like this is almost a hopeless battle. It makes me think this is one where it is all lost and I won’t win.
But when I saw the image of a beautiful woman rushing towards me, the fear evident on her face, all I wanted to know is who she is before it all went dark.
Chapter Two
Leah
I know what my mission is, and I can’t allow anything to stand in my way. Of course, there are things that are completely out of my control but not here and now. I won’t allow it to be, I don’t care what I have to do to make sure that it’s going to work out. I may have died a few hundred years ago but I have been trained by the Moon Goddess to take on this task and not let anything deter me.
I wouldn’t consider it very easy after everything that I have been through, but I do know that if I’m going to do anything, I’m going to make sure that I protect the people that I care about and cherish for. I know that they have all turned to look to me for guidance and I want to be able to help them out the best that I can. I keep thinking that maybe this is going to turn around and bite me in the butt, but I couldn’t be completely sure about that either.
I know what I have to do but if my identity gets revealed, then it is over for me. I won’t get a second chance and I will lose everything that I have worked so hard for. I understand why they don’t trust me, and I get the fact that they keep looking at me like I’m going to betray them or something, but I don’t know how to make them understand it’s not what I’m looking to do. I get why they feel that way but it’s kind of hurtful to just judge someone who hasn’t done anything to someone.
