HE'S MY ALPHA Chapter 15
CLAIR Unfortunately, sleep didn’t come. It was almost three o’clock in the morning, and I was still wide awake. The face of the wolf that almost took my life lingered in every corner of my room. When I couldn’t take it anymore, I stood up from my bed and went to my dresser, and took Jake’s shirt that I had placed in there without even washing it. It was the one I put on after I shifted, hoping his scent would calm me down enough for sleep to take over. And then, for the first time since I came back, I drew the curtains closed, putting the room into total darkness. I wasted no time and lay in my bed, closing my eyes and pulling my blanket over my head, ready to put my mind in the blanks when a mindlink startled me. 'Are you awake?' A voice came into my head. 'Jake? Why are you still awake? It’s three in the morning.' I pulled my blanket down from my head and openly stared at the dark ceiling. I heard him chuckle before answering. 'Do you really expect an Alpha to sleep peacefull

JAKE I held her body close to mine and continued to rub her arm gently. I would have offered her a jacket if only I had had it with me, but in my hurry to get here as soon as I found out she was still awake, I forgot to grab one. "I mean for saving me. Earlier. Thank you. I was scared." Her voice came out soft, almost breaking. I pulled her head into my chest and dipped my mouth into her hair, inhaling her sweet scent as she began sobbing softly. "I was not ready to die yet. I was so stupid..." she continued, and I let out the breath I was holding. She was scared. And I was too. I let her sob in my chest, and all I could do was hold her tightly, letting her know that I would not leave her. When her sobs turned into hiccups, I hooked one arm under her knees, and with my other arm still holding her, I lifted her to sit on my lap. My finger curled under her chin before I tilted her face up and urged her to look at me. "Princess... You’re here, and you’re alive. That’s the most impo

CLAIR. I turned around and lay flat on my stomach while I covered my head with my pillow to tune out the sound that woke me up, but the knocking didn’t stop. I grunted before flipping my body again, my lashes fluttering as I forced my eyes open and stared at the ceiling. "Give me a moment," I called out to the person outside my door, and the knocking eventually stopped. I took a moment to wake myself up and ended up remembering the events of last night. I was almost killed by a rogue, but it was not the thought that forced me out of bed. Jake was here last night. In my room. In my bed. Or was he? Did I just dream that? I looked around for any evidence of his presence the night before, and it was then that I noticed a folded shirt on the other side of the bed, where I remembered him lying the night before. I reached for the shirt and saw a piece of paper neatly folded above it. A note. My heart was thudding loudly as I opened it excitedly. A smile curled on my lips as I read th

JAKE. My Beta knew fucking well how to ruin my day. I opened the front door and hurried in, leaving it open for Beta Gavin. I went directly to my office, taking several breaths to compose myself before I made my presence known to the person in my office. "Elder Rose, I hope I didn’t keep you waiting." I nodded at her as I proceeded to sit behind my desk. I saw Beta Gavin come in and close the door behind him. He chose to stand by the door as he always did. "No, not at all. I just came in as well. How are you, Alpha Jacob?" She let out a wide smile, her eyes flashing with concern. "I’m good. Thank you for asking. How have you been yourself?" "I’m good, Alpha." She cleared her throat before proceeding. "I will cut the chase short. I want to discuss the reason why I am here." "Go ahead, I’m listening," I answered curtly." "The Blue Moon will happen ten weeks from now, and the next one will take place in two years. I suggest we hold the mating ceremony on that day. The moon is at

CLAIR I put the radio on full volume, singing along with it while I washed the dishes. Singing, though I wasn’t good at it, helped to relieve my stress, at least for a moment. The fact that I hadn’t seen Jake for the last two days after he left my room was technically stressing me out. So I tried to let go, even just for tonight. I almost dropped the plate in my hand when I saw Aaron leaning on the counter behind me when I was about to spin around to dance along with my music. "What the..." I glared at him before putting the plate down and wiping my hands with my apron. I turned off the radio and faced him again, huffing. "Don’t scare me like that." He shook his head, arms crossed on his chest. "I was actually talking to you, but apparently, the radio was on full blast and I just wasted a tremendous amount of saliva." I rolled my eyes and turned my back on him to continue with the dishes. "I have to bail out on you on your birthday, Clairy." I heard him talk, his voice remorsef

CLAIR I closed the shower and pulled my towel from where it was hanging to dry off before wrapping it around my body. I only have twenty minutes left before my time starts at the daycare. The daycare houses pups from two to five years old, from six o’clock in the morning up to five o’clock in the afternoon. It would be either their parents were warriors who were in training or had tasks to do, or parents that were working in and outside the territory. I was just on a volunteer status with an allowance. The allowance was something I really don’t need since Dad and Aaron have been providing for all that I need while I stay here. This status would also allow me to quit at any time since I wasn’t sure yet if I wanted to stay here for good or not. But I was truly excited to work there, especially after I saw how refreshing it was to be around the pups. My first day was yesterday when they hired me on the spot, but technically today would be the first time I would go there at a schedule
HE'S MY ALPHA Chapter 21
JAKE The day was almost over, and I hadn’t seen Clair yet. In two days, I will be heading off to Alpha Caspian’s territory and won’t be back for five days. The thought of not seeing her before I leave started to affect my state of mind. I was starting to become restless. I also just remembered today that her birthday would be on Monday, and if I hadn’t already confirmed the dates with Alpha Caspian, I would have adjusted the travel to another day. It would be too unprofessional if I canceled now. And because of this, Echo has been growling in my head the whole day and just wanted me to search for her. I would have if I could, but as much as I wanted, I had duties I needed to settle before my departure. And this was something my wolf couldn’t understand. It was like fighting off myself, and it was just giving me a full headache. I have been contemplating as well whether Clair’s distraction was a good or bad thing for me. If this girl could distract me and could hinder me from doin

JAKE I followed her as soon as she walked away and with just a few strides, I was already beside her. I reached out and took the gym bag from her shoulder, placing it on mine. She stopped in her tracks and looked at me, clearly not in favor of my action. "I can carry my own bag. And it’s not like there’s something heavy in it." She said and extended her hand, waiting for me to hand over her bag. Instead, I took her hand and entwined it in mine before pulling her beside me as we started to walk again. "I didn’t say you’re not capable of carrying your bag. I just want to carry it for you." I explained, letting a smile grace my face. Her gaze fell to the ground, and I noticed her cheeks turning pink as she let me lead the way. Sometimes I wondered if I rendered her speechless when I knew she had a sassy mouth, but she seemed to forget how to talk whenever I was around. That, or I was a terrible conversationalist. "How have you been? Did you like it there with the pups?" She nodde
