ALPHA LEOThe look on Arya’s face when she saw Dylan meant something; the two either knew each other or she knew him and was trying to hide that from me, except she forgot that I could also read her mind. I just wanted to hear it from Dylan; there is no way he could hide anything from me, so I waited until the next day so I could talk to him about it.I asked him to meet me at my office, and later that day I got a call from my PA: “Alpha Leo, Dylan is here to see you.”“Please let him through,” I said and hung up.“Hey man, I am here.”“Yes, I can see that. I wanted to talk to you. You and I both know why I want to meet you, right?” I asked as I looked up from my computer, and he exhaled sharply.“I don’t know what you are talking about; maybe you make me understand.” He claimed he was attempting to play hard on me.“You do know that I can read your mind right now, right?” I asked, and he stuttered.“I don’t know exactly what you are talking about... I don’t know man.” He said, and I s
3RD PERSON’S POVThings went well between the two, and Arya was more than happy. She was over the moon, and even though she was trying to forgive her brother for hiding such information from her, Dylan gave her time to get over it. All he wanted was a relationship with his family, especially with his sister Arya.Elsewhere Kai was having a meeting with his parents, and his father had different thoughts about the whole dating thing, but his mother had a different opinion, always siding with Kai because she thought her son deserved the best.“Son, I am sorry, but I don’t think it is a good idea for you to force the girl to be yours; I don’t approve of that.” He said it in a firm tone, and Kai sighed then turned to look at his mother for comment. He might have had respect for his father, but he was a mama’s boy, and his mother was always supporting his decisions.“No, that is not a good idea. What is the point of my son waiting all these years for his mate, only for you to advise him to
3RD PERSON’S POVEverything was going well for Arya; she forgot about the fight between Alpha Kai and Leo and focused on her end-of-semester exams, which she completed, and on running the job; she still had the card Leo gave him and was still contemplating using it or returning it to him.“I think we need to talk about your job, honey. I don’t like it when you work for Alpha Kai from the other pack and we were taken in by Leo’s family; it will cause wrangling between these two packs, and you know what will happen after that.” Alfred said to his daughter one week later, after she met with Dylan.“Dad, I can’t just quit, and he just gave me the job, plus I am helping you pay up the bills.”“And that is the main reason I want you to quit the job; I am not telling you to choose anyone’s side, but it is going to get both packs into one hell of a fight between these two packs.” He said he was trying to reason with her, and she shrugged before she spoke.“I am not trying to cause any fight be
ALPHA LEO“You have a secret basement in this house, and I never got to know about it," Dylan asked as I opened the door to the basement.“That is why it is called a secret basement, Dylan; it is for a reason, and not just anyone is supposed to know,” I said as we walked to the room. I didn’t have anything to hide, but I did have a few guns that belonged to my late grandfather, who loved hunting.“Do you even know how to use that?” He asked as he pointed at the guns, and I chuckled.“I don’t have to know to own them but don’t worry, I fight and I don’t use guns; these were my grandfather’s; I am not here to use them, though; I just wanted to show you a plan I have; how long has it been since we last fought with your pack?” I asked just to be sure, and Dylan shook his head thoughtfully.“I don’t know… maybe three months…two… I don’t recall, what does that have to do with anything though?” He asked as he perused through the notebook.“It has everything to do with it; your sister is about
ALPHA LEO Something about being free on this planet is anything one could wish for, and for me, I felt like I had tasted freedom for the first time in my miserable life.As I ran through the woods, I felt free and at peace; I didn’t feel much pressure on my back, and I felt like that was the life I deserved to live: a life with no drama, a life with no pressure from the outside world, a life without having to follow the rules and regulations of a pack and all that, and most of all, a free life.The woods weren’t the normal woods I was used to as a kid; I ran and ran, but I still found myself in the same spot. It was like a cycle that kept repeating itself, but I was determined to find my way out of it.“You feel the peace, right?” My father’s voice rang in my head, and I stopped to catch my breath. What was he even doing in the woods? I asked myself this question before I finally stopped in my tracks to focus on his voice.“Dad, is that you?” I asked in a low tone.“Yeah, of course, w
ARYA WAYNELeo asked me out on a date and it surprised me, I was so excited but nervous at the same time.I was excited because I got to spend some time with him, and maybe my wolf would get to know him and accept him as her mate. I was anxious about what was in store for me.“Guess who asked me out to dinner tonight?” I asked Emily who had stopped by to visit me; my father was not around as he had to attend to some business in town.“I can guess; you are charming, and there is no doubt you will have a long list of men who would want to take you out, so I won’t guess; just tell me.” She replied and continued typing on her phone.“Leo asked me out on a date,” I said with a sly smile.“Feels like you are already in love with that dude; he is good-looking and quite charming, but very secretive and always secluding himself, but I don’t mind trying him out; he might be your mate.” My wolf said excitedly, and I ignored her.“Wait, what? I never thought Leo would ever ask anyone out for dinne
3RD PERSON'S POVWhen Arya got into the passenger’s seat, Leo was anxious to even take the seat beside her; she was looking more beautiful that night, and he couldn’t help but steal glances at her.“You look more beautiful tonight.” He commented as he drove across the street.“Thank you; you don’t look half bad yourself.” She replied with a smile tugging at her lips.Oh, are you just saying that to make me feel, okay?”“No, I don’t think that is what I am doing right now. I am just appreciating nature, and you happen to be part of it.” She said, and Leo smiled.“It is okay; I feel like I haven’t done this in a long time.”“Done what exactly?”“Taken anyone out on a date.” He spoke vaguely.“But you just broke up with Thea barely eight months ago; you guys didn’t go out on dates?”“No, that is not what I said. I mean, my relationship with Thea was complicated—not that complicated, but somehow complicated—and I don’t want to talk about it.”“You don’t have to tell me about what happened;
ARYA“Good morning, Dad?” I said to my father the following morning as I walked to the living room that I was in a happy mood.Morning, honey, you look beautiful and happy; what’s going on?” He asked as he squinted his eyes at me, and I chuckled and then got to help him prepare breakfast.“I am good; is it wrong to be happy?” I asked obliviously.“No, I don’t know. I love it when you are happy. How are you feeling?” He questioned.“What do you mean, how am I feeling?”“I mean, how was your date?”“Great, he taught me how to punch and a lot of other things,” I said excitedly, and my father chuckled.“I thought you two went out on a dinner date?”“We did go on a date, and afterward, he taught me a lot of other things. Do you think Alpha Kai will mate with me by force?” I asked out of the blue, and my father turned to look at me.“Why would you say so?” He asked a bit confusedly, and I sighed.Okay, Dylan hails from the same pack, and he happens to know what they are planning. I know Kai
