Alexa's POV “How does it look?” I asked Martha causing her to smile at me. “It's gorgeous,” she said without hesitation. I did not know what to say.“Fine.”I twirled around in front of the mirror hoping to see what she saw but it was completely different from what I thought about myself. The dress was beautiful but… did I look beautiful? I wanted to ask but I kept my raging insecurity within myself.I was pregnant but that shouldn't change a thing, although I didn't feel that way. Maybe this was why I was pushing away the guys that wanted to pursue something with me romantically but it wasn't like my fault for it.“Miss you look pretty!” Martha said as though she could read my mind but I did not respond back to her.After a moment of looking, I said to her, “Maybe things will come together when you put on some makeup on me.”“No, absolutely not.” She said, “You look beautiful just the way you are. Thank you, Martha but this is what I want. A full face of makeup.”“Are you sure?” Mar
Alexa's POV“Everyone,” Father said to the congregation, “Your new Alpha,” There was a wide applause from the congregation afterwards which made me super confused but I refused to let it get to my brain. Mother got a crown from one of the assistants and placed it right on top of my head.“Everyone please welcome Alpha Alexa to the pack and treat her as you would us, we love her so much and we hope you will too.” She said and I shook my head in despair. “B-but I don't know anything about being an Alpha,”“We'll teach you,” Father said kindly, “That's why we are here.”I ended up cascading down the stairs delicately while being surrounded by my people and for the first time, I felt at home.“You are such a beautiful woman,”“Our new Alpha is so pretty,” I heard a bundle of words saying to me about how pretty I was and it made me feel bold and super smart but I wasn't about to bask in the self righteousness of it all. This post belonged to my father, the Alpha and he was giving it to me
Alexa's POV “Oh darling, time is nothing in our eyes. We just want you to mature on time and take on our family legacy. We're going to talk to you so much more on this in our private moment.” Mother whispered to me and I nodded.“Okay then, Mother.”“Enjoy your party, dear. Father said and I wanted to say something back to him but I decided to refrain from it untill we were in our ‘private’ moment.I bowed to my parents and they dismissed me with the wave of their hand.“Oh my, how the hell am i supposed to mingle with so many people here in this room with me.” I thought to myself.“Wine, Alpha?” A waiter asked as he came up to me.“Thank you,” I said and took a half glass full of one. I brought it to my lips, adequately inhaling the scent of the wine to make sure that there was nothing weird in there.Once I confirmed that it was fine, I took a sip and noticed Zaria North tailing me wherever I went.“Oh, Zaria what is it?” I asked causing her to look at me boldly. “I have to introdu
Alexa's POV “Beta, please give me permission to see see the new Alpha through. I think you already have a bunch of responsibilities to deal with so there's no such a thing as you having free time.” He said causing me to look at Zaria North.“You're busy right?”“I-i- Well I mean I am,”“Then go.” Arthur said kindly. “Leave it to you.”Zaria North looked at Arthur, “Are you sure?”“Absolutely, I can handle it.”“Thanks, then I'll get going.” Zaria North said to him and he nodded, then we both watched her leave.“The Beta seems pretty moody at times, am I right?” Arthur asked.“Yes, of course. Sometimes…” I trailed off not wanting to say something mean about Zaria. She indded was trying her best.“That's because she works so hard. Betas are typically known to have been males throughout the geneology but she's a woman, that's more burden on her shoulders.”“Well I'm also a woman and an Alpha,”“That's also going to be slightly difficult but it's different for Zaria North, she answers to
Alexa's POV“So you are the new Alpha,” one of them, said with a scoff. “So I'm supposed to bow to you now, peharps write your name on my forehead,”“How dare you!” Arthur said firmly, making me almost jump from his words. They sounded so firm and his attitude was booming and clear, it caught the elder offguard that he had to adjust in his seat.“How can you talk about the Alpha in such a demeaning way,” he said which made the elder change his attitude to me.“I mean, hello Alpha.” He saw, slightly bowing as the rest of the elders did.“Since you're the Alpha of the pack, we might as well treat you with respect.” The other elder said, “I just hope that you know what you are doing and that you're not going to put our pack into ruin.”“To be honest, I am just getting to know the responsibilities of being a Alpha. I hope with time I can get to know everyone as well as work together with all of my subordinates to run a free and fair pack.”The elder clasped her face with his hands looking
Alexa's POV“A premonition that you are the true Alpha. The one to carry on the legacy of Deep into the woods.”I already knew how witches were so I couldn't help but ask. “Even though you had such premonition, couldn’t you just wait for some time instead of rushing me in this responsibility. For all you know, I could be bad at this. I mean we haven't even gotten to know one another yet you call me Alpha.”“Don't worry about anything,” said Mother, “You can handle it. Everything that is coming to you as Alpha. What I saw and sensed can't be ignored which is why I had to make sure that this happened as soon as possible. You're not a little girl, Alexa. You have great power within you and you need to let it shine. I don't know where you've been but they've stifled you for way too long and you don't deserve it because you're such a good girl and your power should be given ways to be expressive and to shine. You should be in a place where your powers are being appreciated not dimmed down.
Alexa's POV“You two have such a wonderful love story,” I said with a pout.Mother smiled wide at me. “So will you when the time comes!”“Thanks ma, but I have something else to say to you before we proceed.”“And what is that honey?” Mother asked.“I'm pregnant,” I said causing father to freeze up. “What? You are what?”“Yes,” I said with a slight nod.Mother seemed sad about that but I knew that it had to happen. I had to tell them the truth about what I was carrying so they didn't offload too much burdens on me. Even I was also worried about what they would do when they found out that I was pregnant but I couldn't run from it, their judgement.“Why didn't you see that before now sweetie?” Father asked.Well at least he still seemed coordinated when it came to me. He wasn't yelling or acting in a sort of way that wasn't graceful and for that I appreciated him.“Your pregnancy has nothing to do with your credentials my daughter. I know that you are skillful in your way, I couldn't be
Alexa's POVThere were so much things that I learnt to do from my mother and it made me realize just how much I'd been missing out from my mother.After the sessions with my mother, I was able to clean myself up in my room and feel refreshed. I left the people downstairs to the party while I changed into a comfortable white sleeping dress. In my room I laid on the pillow and thought of what could be.I ended up thinking of what Alpha Nate had said to me while I was in his park, all those soothing words that he actually told me, did he mean them at all? Or was it all for show? I couldn't decide what the truth was.I rolled around on my bed, grieving the life I once had. From a nurse, now I was Alpha.I heard a knock on my door, interrupting my thoughts.“Come in,” I said without thinking.The door opened and I smelt Martha.“Martha why are here?” I asked without turning to her.“How do you know it's me?” She asked in a small voice only for me to sigh. “Just tell me why you are here?”
