Alpha Leandro walked towards the training grounds, his beta and a few other men behind him.
He was like rumored. His looks were perfect. With hazel beautiful eyes that seemed to pull every woman to him and dark hair that had been beautified by the cut. His straight nose down to the pair of lips that he had and to his neatly cut beard. His body was covered in a neat and obviously expensive black suit but the suit could not hide all evidences of how hot his body was.He wasn't just hot but he knew how to put his hot body into use. He was a sex idol and the few girls who had managed to get into his bed could kill to get another chance to be with him."Alpha Leandro is here!""Oh my! The Alpha is here!" "This is the first time I am seeing him and.... And he is so perfect! He looks better than you told me he is!"Excited squeals and giggles from the girls filled the training grounds but as he got closer, the giggling died down. They had to respect their Alpha with silence."Alpha Leandro" The trainers greeted first, bowing their heads."It's such a pleasure to have you here, Alpha" Kimberly raised her head slightly and tucked her hair behind her ear.Leandro recognized her. He had seen her a couple of times during his childhood. The old beta had brought her to the Pack house a few times.He responded to her words with a nod that seemed so distant and off. That was another thing the Alpha was known for. His coldness.There were rumors that he had found his mate but his coldness had pushed her away from him and his mate was hiding."Greet the Alpha" Kimberly said to the trainees who were waiting for that prompt, with their heads lowered."Greetings to the great Alpha" all the trainees chorused and Leandro recognized one voice amidst the other voices.It was that one voice he could not forget, Larisa.He gulped down, almost unnoticeably as his eyes searched through the trainees and found her in seconds.She was still here, seven years later and still a trainee. She really wasn't going to give up and find something else to spend her time on.She was staring at him too, with those blue beautiful ocean eyes of hers that he remembered staring into countless times. Their eye contact lasted for a brief moment before his gaze hardened and he looked away from her.It wasn't worth it.... He reminded himself."You are all very lucky to have the great Alpha willing to offer you encouragement for this training session. This surely doesn't happen every session" one of the trainers said to the trainees who all smiled in glee and excitement except Larisa.She could swear that when he looked at her, he was mocking her wolflessness and was being extremely glad that he chose not to stick around with her.When his gaze hardened, she could swear it was with repulsion and disgust towards her."Just you wait, Alpha. Until I get my wolf side and put you all to shame."*"Larisa, you are back" her grandmother smiled as Larisa walked into the living room."Yes, granny" she approached the old lady who was seated on one of the couches in the living room.Larisa leaned in and kissed the old, wrinkled cheeks of her grandmother."How was today?" Her grandmother asked with her signature gentle smile."It was perfect." Larisa flashed her a smile."Are you sure? Did anyone look at you differently or treat you bad?" Her grandmother asked."Of course not. I have told you countless times, Granny. You should not worry about me. Everyone treats me so well out there. They keep assuring me that I will get my wolf side soon and they are so patient with me too. If they were treating me badly, I would not have been able to hold on for seven years" she gave her grandmother an assuring smile."Alright. I am rest assured then. I made dinner already. You should eat""I will just take a bath before doing so. Is brother back from work?" She asked."Not yet. He called and told me he might be late. Don't worry about him"Larisa nodded her head and walked up the stairs that led to a small passage.Their house was a small mansion. Her parents had been quite rich before they just left home one day and never returned.They were dead and their bodies were lost. That's what Larisa believed. She was about 13 when they had gone missing and both grandmother and Alex avoided her questions about the circumstances surrounding their disappearance.She found her room and pushed the door open. She walked into the room and her face fell.She had to pretend in front of her grandma like everything was okay. She could not stand her grandma worrying about her all day.Larisa glanced at her hurt arm and was glad that her grandma didn't notice that else she would have had to lie again.She walked further into her room and glanced at herself in the mirror. She was beautiful but beauty without strength in the Pack was useless.Her beauty would only be appreciated if she had strength along with it.Tearing her eyes off the beautiful image staring back at her in the mirror, she pulled her clothes off her body and walked towards the bathroom door.But as soon as she had grabbed the door handle, she felt a crackling pain in her back.Her brows pulled together and her eyes blinked severally as she tried to process what the sudden pain was about.But before she could process that, the pain had come again, hitting her even harder.She screamed, letting go of the door handle. Her entire body, not just her back seemed to be cracking for something bigger to show up.Her eyes widened with pains and yet happiness as she realized that it was finally happening.She was finally shifting into her wolf form."Larisa!" Her grandma ran into the room, breathing heavily.She had been scared after hearing Larisa scream but seeing the long expected sight in front of her, she smiled.Larisa thrashed around in pains as her first shifting wrecked her human body.After long minutes of pains, it was finally over.A wolf with beautiful white fur stood in the middle of the room.Her grandma excitedly ran towards her and buried her hands into her furs. The old lady had lived with witches for the first 18 years of her life and had subtle witch powers.She closed her eyes and when her eyes opened three seconds later, it was with a gasp."An... You are an omega"Larisa was seated on the floor, shattered and in her human side, naked. Tears rolled down her cheeks as the discovery had broken her completely. Finding her wolf side was supposed to be a huge relief, it was supposed to provide her with the happiness she sought. She had desperately hoped and prayed for her wolf side to be strong and powerful but all hopes was now gone. She was not strong or powerful, she wasn't even a normal wolf. She was an omega! The lowliest of the wolves. There was barely any difference between being a wolfless girl and being an omega....No, there was a difference. A wolfless girl could hope to have a strong wolf but an omega had no hopes. It was the end. "Larisa, you do not have to cry this much" her grandma wrapped her arm around her and patted her gently. "At least you now have your wolf side""It is not enough, granny" Larisa cried. "It's never going to end now. They are never going to stop picking on me" she cried. "Picking on you?" Her grandmother
Alpha Leandro stood, facing his window with a picture in his hand. His brows were pulled into an expression that could not be read.A knock came on the door and his cold eyes blinked. "Come in" his voice was almost inaudible.He dropped the picture in his hand on the table.The door opened and a maid walked into the room. She looked really nervous and scared, even. Her knees were visibly bucking and her eyes blinked repeatedly."Alpha" she called, obviously doing a lot of work keeping her voice firm."Drop the cup of coffee" Leandro said, not sparing her a glance.The maid hurried to drop the cup of coffee on the table but her shaky legs could not hold her for long.Just as she got to the table, her legs shook terribly and she lost control of the cup in her hands.The coffee spilled on the table, quickly getting to the picture on the table.The maid panicked and quickly got on her knees."I am sorry, Alpha. I am really sorry" she apologized repeatedly with her voice cracking terribly
The next dayLarisa sat in her bed, her legs stretched out. She had her phone in her hands as she nervously tapped on it."How is it going? Do I have any hope of getting a job?" She texted Alex.It was evening already but it would still be a few hours before Alex would be back from work and she just couldn't wait anymore to know if he had been able to get to the beta and if she could really get a job.She stared at the screen of the phone waiting for him to view her message and give a response. "Maybe he is not on a break right now" she mumbled and sighed. Larisa threw herself back on the bed and stared at the ceiling above her.She suddenly remembered him, Leandro. His eyes that seemed to be a window into a world, a paradise that he had built himself, his hair that he had so much loved to run his hands through, hair that she thought she would be able to run her own fingers through and then his lips, lips that she thought she would get drunk with its taste but all of that had change
Larisa ran into the house with her arms spread wide apart. She let out an excited scream that startled her grandmother and Alex who was already back from work. Alex who had been thinking he would have to comfort her for the night was quite taken aback to see her so happy. "You are good?" He was the first to ask. Larisa grinned at him and did a quick spin in the middle of the room. "I got a job!" "Really?" Alex stood up.Larisa nodded happily. "Though the pay is low but I got the job... As a personal maid for the Alpha" Larisa replied and Alex's face turned sour suddenly. "You got a job close to the Alpha?" He asked. "Yes? You are not happy for me?" Larisa asked. "You can't get a job somewhere else?" Alex asked and Larisa's brows pulled close. "You don't want me to work near the Alpha? Is there a reason why....""I just don't want it! It's silly! You will become like those girls out there, drooling over him soon enough" Alex clenched his fists. "Alex" grandmother called. "
"Mate" his wolf side called out excitedly but Leandro simply groaned. He didn't want this... It meant that she had gotten her wolf side. Was she going to lurk around him and never leave now that she had figured out that they were mates?Their eyes were still locked onto each other as they stared deeply into each other's eyes as if to bring out secrets and emotions they had buried long away. As if wanting to keep those secrets and emotions buried, Leandro was the first to look away."You are my...." She tried saying but he cut her off."Don't say the word" his cold voice made her stop talking. He looked back at her, making sure their eyes met again. He let out a puff of hot breath through his lips and got up from his chair, quickly pulling himself together. He had to reject her immediately."I am not your whatever" his deep voice resounded through the room. Larisa gulped down. Even though, she was not here for his love and she didn't want to be his mate after he had abandoned her,
A smile parted Larisa's lips as she heard him say those words. She had won and this was going to be the beginning of her good luck and victory in life. "Thank you Leandro""Alpha Leandro" he corrected her sharply. Larisa wanted to argue. Wouldn't it be easier to seduce him if she could call him by name? But she decided to stick to calling his name with respect; for now."Thank you Alpha Leandro" she corrected herself. "What are you doing? Get to work already" he walked into the bathroom. Larisa let out a breath she had not even realized she was holding. Her eyes closed momentarily and then she set to work immediately. She was genuinely excited about having a job. After laying the bed, she stopped, realising she was not with the cleaning tools. She left the room to get the cleaning tools but by the time she was back, she could no longer scent him out. He had left the room already, most probably for work. The files on the table had been cleared up. Larisa shut the door behind he
Larisa chewed on her lower lip for a few seconds before hurrying to catch up with Leandro who was just about to take the stairs."Alpha Leandro" she dashed in front of him, making him stop. His ever cold gaze settled on her with a questioning look. "What would you like to eat? I have prepared different dishes already. " Larisa asked, the words had slipped out of her mouth before she realised it was silly to her goals.'Slow, I am just starting slowly' she made a mental note to herself. "Leave""Ugh?" Her jaw dropped slightly and his gaze on her turned a bit more intent. "You heard me quite well. You should get off work now and resume tomorrow. I have had enough of your presence today" he said and brushed past her, intentionally letting his shoulder push against her own shoulder. A look of hurt washed across Larisa's face but she was quick to replace it with a fake smile. Larisa wanted to go after him and insist that her job for the day was not over but she decided not to do so.
'I can't do this' Those words rang in Leandro's head and he suddenly let go of Larisa, giving her a small shove that sent her staggering her forward. "I... I am sorry" Larisa apologized, staring at the floor. She did not want him to see her flushed face. Leandro glanced down at the tent that had built in his trousers and then at Larisa and then he quickly looked away. "Let me have my suitcase" he requested for the suitcase that had dropped from his hand when he held her from falling.Larisa quickly did as he had asked her and handed it over to him. She watched him walk out of the room and shut the door behind him. Larisa rested her back against the door and breathed out heavily. She slapped her cheek repeatedly as her racing heart started to slow down. All she had had in mind was to seduce him. She had not taken into consideration that she was not a robot programmed to seduce. She was human who could be seduced while trying to seduce. "Don't think about his body, Larisa. He is
