Promised to the Alpha CHAPTER THIRTY TWO
I know Nicole is close by, so I follow that sense. And slowly, I make my way around the pack’s territory. Wolves are patrolling the area. Everyone seems on edge. I know something has already happened here, so it’s going to be more difficult to infiltrate it. Still, I get the sense that Nicole needs me. I have this feeling that she’s not safe. And I have to trust that instinct. I have to do what I can to keep her safe.A wolf walks by me and I freeze in the shadows. He’s so close that he could reach out and engage me in a fight easily. But I don’t want to fight. I just want to find her. So, I hide and he disappears into the night. Then, I keep looking until finally, I come across a silver cage. My heart breaks as I see Nicole crying in it.I want to go right to her. I want to reassure her that everything will be okay; I will get her out of this mess. But I have to be careful. I have to be cunning.Instead of going right to her, I scan the area. She’s locked in this cage, and th

I look down at the Alpha as I’m awash with conflicting emotions. I want to get revenge on the person who imprisoned my love. I know I have enough strength to kill him, and after everything, I’m mad at everyone in a way I never have been before.Confidence assures me that I don’t need his help. I can lead a pack without him. I can be the best Alpha without him.And yet, I suspect his help wouldn’t hurt. It could be good to have a guide, a mentor. And it would be great if the pack just accepted me without me having to use a lot of force. I certainly don’t want to get on their bad side.I want this transition to go smoothly. I want peace. I want to be with the one I love freely.As I question what I should do, I notice that the wolf pack has gathered around us. They all saw the fight. They’ll see what I choose. This will shape their opinion on me forever.“Okay,” I say, slowly releasing the Alpha. “I’ll let you go because it’s beneficial and wise to show mercy sometimes. But know tha

"Nicole, did you hear?" Shelby asks me."Hear what?" I ask."About the new alpha," she says. I stare at her, confused."What do you mean 'new alpha'?" I ask."There's a new alpha coming to visit," Shelby says. "One from a neighboring pack.""That's odd," I say. I'm not sure we've ever had a visit from another pack's alpha."I don't know what to make of it," Shelby says."Me either," I reply."I have to go help my mom," Shelby says. "See you tonight?""Of course," I say."I'll let you know if I hear anything else," she says, and then she turns and walks down the path toward her house.I stare after her. I'm not sure why, but this news about the new alphas visit makes me feel very uneasy. I don't have to be anywhere for hours, so I decide to go for a walk to clear my head. I walk through the woods behind my house, admiring the tall, strong trees. It's a sunny day, so the sun shines through the trees, making the leaves sparkle with life.I reach the clearing near the o

I feel dizzy. I don't know what to think. I don't know what to feel.This wolf just appeared out of nowhere and told me a bunch of stuff that makes no sense. I don't know if I believe him.But at the same time, something about it feels so real. I can't explain it. I just... I get the feeling that he's telling the truth.I feel like I'm missing something, but I have no idea what.I decide to go home and try to forget about it for now. I'm sure that I'll figure it out eventually.I walk home and cross my fingers that my mom is done with her preparations for the evening ahead.I walk into the kitchen and see my mom is cutting up vegetables for a salad.I go to the refrigerator and grab a bottle of water, then go to the table to sit down.Mom sits the knife down on the cutting board and turns to me."Where were you?" she asks."I went for a walk," I say."I've been looking all over for you," she says."You should really let me know where you are," she says.She picks her knife
Promised to the Alpha CHAPTER THREE
The rest of the dinner party is uneventful. The guests do their best to try to engage me in conversation, but I keep to myself as much as possible. I'm worried that I might say something that reveals the secrets I'm holding inside.I'm also worried that I might slip and just lose it. If my emotions were ever going to come back to the surface, I'm sure it would be tonight. I'm on edge, more than I can remember ever being.I'm barely able to keep it together around the guests. I'm sure other members of the pack have noticed. But they don't know what to say to me. Nobody does.After a couple of hours, everyone leaves, and I excuse myself to go upstairs to bed. Falling asleep is a struggle. I cannot stop thinking about the prophecy.When I do finally manage to drift off, I dream of the new alpha.He's walking toward me with a look of kindness on his face. He extends his hand and helps me off the ground. But as I get to my feet, I realize that I'm standing on the edge of a cliff. I'm
Promised to the Alpha CHAPTER FOUR
The thought of Shelby betraying me is something I can barely even fathom. She’s been my best friend for so long. I thought that telling her was safe.I thought that telling anyone would be safe. I did have that weird sense that I should keep it from some people, but I figured that was just because it was a new thing. I didn't think I had good reason to keep it safe. No one has ever cared about who I interacted with before.Why wouldn't they want me to go see him again? What's wrong with Gavin? He seems really nice to me. He seems like he just wants to get along with our pack. Why would they fight against him? Why am I not allowed to see him?“Why am I in here?” I call out.No one answers me though. It's just me down here. I yell a few more times, trying to get anyone’s attention. This is a nightmare. I have no idea what's going on. I have no idea why this is happening to me.Eventually, I give up. I stop crying, I stop yelling, and I stand. I look around the room.The room is

I feel betrayed by my best friend. I feel betrayed by everyone. Eventually, she leaves and I'm on my own. I take some time to read and I watch some TV. I try to do everything I can to distract myself.Then, I walk around the room. I try to look for an escape. I look for any possible way out or any explanation.As expected, I find nothing. They're too smart to make it easy for me to escape or find information. There's no way I'm fighting my way out of here. I'm stuck until someone tells me the truth or until they finally believe that I'm loyal.I don't understand it at all. I have always been nothing but loyal to the alpha of my pack. I've never even thought of going against him until now. I don't know what they're seeing in me, but it's not true. I am loyal. They have no reason to do this to m
