Chapter 15 -15-
The Deadly Alpha
We stood silently to watch Masa's body covered with a white sheet and onto the stretcher for the
funeral that will be held tomorrow once they clean her body, Alpha has been on edge this morning,
he contacted one hundred international packs and made a prize for whoever catches the killer, he
was taking way too extreme measures.
"Alps, why are you pushing this over the top?â He got me closer to his chest as the breakfast tray
laid on his side.
"Masa isn't a really bad girl, she had been having very troubling issues and I know my sister already
told you this, she was a Luna for them because I lost hope, I thought I'd never feel as happy as I was
with Cathy, then you came in." I could have sworn that his eyes glowed blue at me as he sent me a
soft smile and I smiled back. I guessed that Masa was only sad that she had to lose the title.
"Will you ever tell me your name?" I pressed on and he chuckled at how nosy I was being, his porch
showed the morning light and tiny breezes that tickled my bare arms as my silk gown Alpha bought
for me was comfortable but left me bare to his eyes only.
"No, it's cursed.â He said in a final tone and I knew not to push my luck for so long so I dropped it,
anyway, I liked to call him Alpha more. I was still confused about his curse but maybe he would tell
me when the time was right.
"I realized I didn't know anything about your life before me except that you were in Moonlight pack
and your name." He confessed, suggesting that I start right now.
The fatal memory burned in my mind like rain acid, I sighed, I had to tell him before he found out
himself. I made myself comfortable on his lap as his warm arms tangled around my waist.
"I had a sister and a mother but the house was burned and my sister and mother burned with it, I
remember it very clearly,â my voice cracked in raw pain with my hair tied and my face bare to him,
the Alpha was silent as I continued, "the vivid orange flames, I wanted to die with them too in
eternal peace and see them up again but the Alpha had to rescue me and I hated how I never get to
hear my little sister's laugh and see my mother's smile and sparkly eyes, I just want to be home with
them again.â His breath hitched at my storytelling as he hugged me tighter.
"Donât say that I can't bear the thought of losing you at all,â He whispered into my ear as he kissed
my cheek, I wiped the tears that went astray, "I can help you find who did that fire.â He declared and
I shook my head, I wanted to do this on my own.
"No, it's gone now." I lied and he stayed silent, I cuddled into him as the morning birds chirped on
his balcony. The red and white mixed room alight with the nice reflection of the morning sky.
"Alps?" He had full attention on me and I got nervous as I gnawed on my lip.
"Am I pressured to have your pups?" I squeaked on the last word in awkwardness, the room was
silent until he laughed that very heart melting laugh.
No, it was a dying seal laugh, he didn't have an attractive laugh but being mates made me accept
that and saw it as a good sound to my ears.
"No, we still have time for that,â I grew wary as I thought that he didn't want any, that was until he
whispered in my ear, "until I get rid of Raden then we can have twelve pups.â I looked into the glints
in his eyes as our noses touched. My cheeks were heating up from the words he uttered.
Alpha Raden, it was a strange thing he didn't die, maybe because his Alpha powers are more than
weak ones so they managed to die except him.
We had breakfast which consisted of the Alpha throwing food at my face and me dumping water on
his hair. It was a fun morning until his sister barged inside and claimed that I had to explain to her
what kind of ability I had since she didn't get a chance to talk to me due to the very demanding
Alpha that wanted to take me upstairs.
"I don't know what kind of ability I have, the Moon Goddess helped me I guess.â I shrugged and her
shoulders sagged in defeat.
"I'm going to take a shower, I'll meet you later." He winked and kissed my cheek, not wanting to
embarrass me further.
His bare back rippled and I sighed in content until a slap on my neck echoed the moment her
brother went inside the bathroom.
"Look at you, all lovey-dovey, it's disgusting.â She cringed and I raised an eyebrow, ready to defend
myself.
"And yes, I have a mate.â My jaw dropped to the floor when she said that with a cheeky smile on her
face.
"He's a Beta in the Wildcrest pack but he wanted to finish a couple of things there and he will move
here for our new furnished house.â She clapped her hands. That reminded me of the girl who took
me in away from the Alpha. I had to visit her again and explain the heated situation she was caught
up in with me.
"Doesn't Alpha have a Beta?" I asked and she shook her head.
"My brother doesn't trust easily at all.â She stressed on the two words because she knew that I
wanted to fix that situation. He couldn't just have an emergency with another pack and leaves this
pack unguarded. He needed a Beta.
"Can't you be the Beta?" She laughed at another nosy question from me. I had to know everything.
That was just in my system.
"Honey, in the Sterlight pack, things are different.â
She's right about that. Lace agreed
