Bound to the Alpha Chapter 20
Logan’s POVAs I sat behind my desk the scent of my desk lingered in the air, and the sound of my pen tapping echoed. My mind raced with questions, one after the other. How is it that Veronica had yet to receive her wolf? Would that explain that she doesn’t know about me? The questions just kept running through my mind. The door creaked open, and Andrew stepped into the room, his expression worried me. I set my pen down and leaned back into my chair.“Alpha.” He said, his voice filled with urgency. “We’ve uncovered something about the attack.”I leaned forward, my interest piqued. “What have you found?” I asked, my voice steady.With a deep breath Andrew spoke, “They used wolfsbane.”“What?”“Unfortunately, there was no way to save them. They would have died no matter what our medical team would have tried.” He said with sadness in his tone. His gaze fell to the ground.“That’s impossible. The last wolfbane was destroyed years ago. There must be some kind of mistake.”Andrew shook hi

Veronica’s POVThe next morning tiredness didn’t want to let go of me, exhaustion seemed to sink in deeper with each yawn. Rubbing the sleep from my eyes, I stood up from the comfort of my bed. The events of the previous day seemed to have a bigger effect on me than I thought. As I got dressed there was a soft knock that echoed through the room, Maya’s voice followed soon after, “Morning Miss Veronica.”I greeted her with a tired smile, “Morning.”She looked at me with a worried smile, “Is everything alright?”“Everything is fine. Just a bit tired, I didn't sleep too well last night.” I lied.She lifted my face, giving me a reassuring smile, but the moment was short-lived. Her expression quickly changed, “We’re going to be late.”“Late? Late for what?” I asked, surprised by her sudden urgency.“For your lesson.” “Again?”“Yes. Now come on.” She grabbed my arm and pulled me out of the room.The excitement of going to another lesson was there but my body didn’t want it. I painted on a

Logan’s POVSitting in my office, the room was bright with the sun shining through the windows. It heated the room nicely, as I worked through the papers on my table there was a knock on the door. With a sigh, I leaned back into my chair, “Yes?”The door slowly opened and Henry was peeking through the gap, “Sorry to disturb you Sir, but here is someone here to see you.”“Let him in.”The door opened wider, and the man thanked Henry and he closed the door behind him. “Can I help you? I asked, eyeing him cautiously.The man gave me a smile, and gave a bow, “Good day Alpha. It is an honour to make your acquaintance. My name is Lucas. I’ve heard rumours about the recent attack on one of the packs in the area. I just thought I might offer my assistance.”I raised my eyebrow. It was rare for outsiders to show such concern for other Alpha’s affairs. I smelled the air and noticed he wasn’t a wolf, he was human. I could see he was trying to read me, but I kept a poker face.“I know you can tel

Veronica’s POVI made my way to the kitchen to make myself a cup of tea. After the long and tedious day, I was longing for something hot. My steps were light against the floorboards, the moon light shone through the curtains. As I reached the coffee pot, my gaze turned to the window overlooking a porch.Logan. There he sat. I noticed he had a troubled look on his face. A sense of concern tugged at my heartstrings, despite the fear and worry, I couldn’t shake the feeling to go and comfort him. Without hesitation I made a cup of coffee, the smell of freshly made coffee filled the air. Clutching the cups in my hands, I made my way out to the porch.I approached softly. Logan glanced up, I could see the surprise on his face, he then offered me a faint smile, “Hi.” Handing him his cup, our fingers touched slightly. “Thank you.” I didn’t say a word as I found a spot next to him. There was a big gap between us, I didn’t want to intrude in his alone time, but the sight before us was too beaut

Veronica’s POVThe morning light made me open my eyes slightly, as I awakened from my slumber my hand fell to the other side of the bed. The feeling of the empty side next to me made me sit up. The night before flooded my mind, could it have been a dream? It felt all so real, the warm embrace of Logan, holding me so soft and comforting. The feeling that we shared in that moment. I rubbed my eyes, removing the sleep from them. The feeling of him holding me still felt so real, the feeling of being cared for and the feeling of feeling wanted. I scanned the room, the sense of emptiness settled over me.Logan was gone.A sigh of disappointment filled the air. Then I spotted a neatly folded piece of paper lying on the bedside table. With hesitation I reached out and unfolded it. I never saw his handwriting before, it was neat. Each stroke, written delicately.“Veronica,I apologise for not being there when you woke up. Something important came up at work, and had to rush out. Please don’t

Veronica’s POVMia stood with her arms crossed and a clear indication that she was not happy to see me. The tension in the air thickened and our eyes met. Her eyes were always cold and distant, but this time her gaze was filled with a fury I hadn't seen before. Fear started to take over my body, I didn’t know what to expect from her. Not knowing what words would escape her mouth, nor what she would do to me.“Veronica,” She she spat out my name like a curse, “It’s a fucking honor to see you.” Sarcasm filled her tone.“I…” I took a big breath trying to gather the courage to tell her off. But, nothing. It was like my words were frozen.“You what? Decided to abandon your pack, and go live a good life.” She said as she made air quotes. “Because of you. Because of your betrayal to our pack, your father had to pay the price.”It felt a punch in my gut as the words left her mouth. My father. What price did my father have to pay? And I didn’t decide to leave, I was forced to leave. I was told

Logan’s POVAs I held Veronica gently in my arms, feeling her fear and hurt that shook her body as she cried. Her cries broke my heart, I hated to see her like this. I hoped that her leaving that horrible place would bring her solace not heartache. “Little one,” I murmured softly as I stroked her hair gently. “Everything is alright now. You're safe here.”She slowly looked up at me, her eyes puffy and red. I held her face in my hands, our eyes locking with each other. At that moment time seemed to stand still. I could see she had questions, the uncertainty to trust me.Without thinking, I leaned forward, pressing my lips gently against hers. She didn’t resist, didn’t pull back. The kiss was tender, filled with reassurance and comfort. She was tense and stiff for a moment, then she relaxed in her touch.When we finally pulled back, I gazed into her eyes. With my thumb I wiped away her remaining tears that were still lingering on her cheek. “Little one.” I whispered, my voice husky wit

Veronica’s POVWaking up I futtered my eyes to the soft light filtering through the curtains. Scanning the room, I noticed that Logan wasn’t next to me anymore. I sighed, turning onto my back, I stared at the ceiling. A strange feeling of emptiness started to consume me. His absence made my heart fill with sadness. I was always so used to waking up alone, but this morning was different. I felt different. I lingered in the bed for a few more moments, before gathering the willingness to get up. Today was another day that I had to meet with Grace to continue my lessons. She had been helping me so much to help me refine my manners and present myself better. Though it hasn’t been easy, I was not willing to give up. I had to continue and be the true lady I have to be.After getting dressed in a beautiful but yet simple dress, I made my way to the study. As I walked to the study, the silence of the morning was only broken by the echo of my footsteps. When I finally made it to the study, I w

Veronica’s POVI watched as Logan walked away. My fingers nervously tapped on my lap, trying to calm myself, trying not to feel nervous and anxious. The thought of being in a place like this, it felt wrong, I felt so exposed. The chandeliers that cast a golden light that felt too warm, too suffocating. My heart started pounding as my eyes scanned around the room. I could feel the judgemental stares from some of the people here.The way they whispered behind their hands. I knew their whispers were about me, a rogue, an outsider. Someone who wasn’t worthy of being with the Alpha. And no matter how hard I tried to push it aside, to ignore them as I was told by Logan, I could help but feel like I didn’t belong here.Logan’s words played in the back of my mind, ‘You belong here. With me.’ But no matter how much I wanted to believe it, my mind didn’t allow me to. I was starting to feel like I was standing on the edge of something fragile, ready to break at any moment. Suddenly, the chair ac

Logan’s POVI stood at the bottom of the stairs, the whispers of my pack surrounded me like a background noise. Normally, I wouldn’t be fazed by their presence, but tonight was different. My focus was on her, and only her. Tonight was the night that I would show her what she meant to me, this wasn’t just any normal night out. She belonged here, belonged here with me. By my side as my Luna, no matter what anyone thought.The second I sent that dress to her room, I knew she would look stunning in it. There was no doubt about that. I knew Veronica was still trying to figure out who she was, still clinging to her past that had her scarred. But the woman I saw wasn’t a rogue, wasn’t someone broken. She was powerful, fierce, and despite everything she’d been through, there was something that made her… Mine.My wolf growled in approval as I saw her descending from the stairs. Her heels clicked against the floor. It was like my breathing had stopped, my heart pounded intensely as she was now

Veronica’s POVReaching the hallway leading to my room, my thoughts were still focused on the events of that day. But something was different… I was different. Everything that I saw, I saw differently, every sound, then I pushed open the door leading to my room, a strange sight greeted me. A black dress laid carefully on my bed, next to it was a note with beautiful, elegant handwriting.I slowly made my way closer to it, picking up the note, then I started reading: “I’m proud of you. Wear this tonight. I can’t wait to see you. - Logan”My heart skipped a beat as I read the note. His way of stating this always makes me fluster. His powerful, commanding tone. It made the note feel more personal than it should be. But the idea of him being proud of me, no one had ever been proud of me except for my mom. I set the note down and turned my attention to the dress. It was stunning. The fabric shimmered under the light that shone through the window. Picking up the dress, I made my way over t

Veronica’s POVAfter breakfast I made my way to the training grounds where Grace was waiting for me. My emotions were all over the place, I have never shifted into my wolf form. Anticipation and nerves were swirling in my stomach. The sun had made its way out of the clouds making the ground heat up and allowing the heat to attack my face.The sound of warriors sparring in the distance. The air smelled of earth and sweat, the smell of hard work. Grace stood on one of the platforms, her expression was serious, but I could see a hint of excitement. “Are you ready?” She asked as I approached her.Taking a big breath then nodded, “Do I have a choice?”She giggled slightly, then motioned for me to climb onto the platform. The space was made sure that no one can hurt one another when practising. There was a big tree casting a shadow over us. “Okay. So, turning into a wolf can be very overwhelming. Especially when it is your first time. With time it gets easier, but the first transition is c

Veronica’s POVThe sunlight slowly shone through the curtains, waking me up gently. I stretched, feeling that Logan was still lying close beside me, and I smiled. I sat upright, then quietly made my way to the bathroom. My muscles were sore in the best way, a reminder of the intense and wonderful night we had shared. It didn’t feel real, it felt like it was a dream that I was about to wake up from. I turned on the shower allowing the water to heat up. As the water warmed up, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror, my hair was a mess. And the thought of Logan’s touch made my skin tingle once more. I traced my finger over my collarbone, remembering the way his lips moved over my body. Stepping into the shower, allowing the hot water to flow over me. The steam of the water covered the bathroom, making it difficult to see. Then I heard the door of the shower open and I turned around to find Logan standing in the doorway. Naked. “Is there space for one more?” He asked with a grin th

Veronica’s POVI stood there, barely able to breathe as Logan’s thumb brushed against my cheek. His touch, it was warm and comforting, gentle, shockwaves flowed through my body. My heart raced rapidly, making me warm up. If it wasn’t for the cold night breeze blowing through the open window I think I might pass out. “Logan.” I whispered, trying to find words. The pull between us, what was happening? It was like I wanted him, but I was afraid. It felt like the entire world was standing still but our breaths were indicating that it wasn’t.His eyes still locked with mine, I was both terrified and excited. With every encounter that we had, the pull hadn’t been so intense as it is now. I wanted and needed him, and I needed him now more than ever. “Everything… It… Feels different. I can’t stop feeling you. Your heartbeat, your breathing. When you’re not here it feels like you are.” I admitted, my gaze fell to his lips.His right hand fell to my waist, and his other hand still cupped my f

Logan’s POVI couldn’t stop thinking about her.They way she was standing there, her eyes shining with emotions she couldn’t hide. It felt that everything that had happened at the South Border faded in an instance. It was like she brought me back to reality, to what really mattered. She was the only thing that kept me going, to keep fighting, to survive. The bond between us, something I’d only felt, but when our skin touched it made her feel what I was feeling.I couldn’t believe that she had finally got her wolf, something that I knew she was longing for. Not able to stop thinking about her, my mind was with her and not in the boardroom where it needed to be. My mind was miles away. The chatter of my pack were only whispers, the table my eyes were fixed on was a blur. All that I could see was Veronica standing in front of me, her happiness to see that I have returned.“Sir?” Cain’s voice cut through my thoughts.I blinked, focusing on the long table in front of me. Cain was standing

Veronica’s POVI looked over to the direction as Logan and the pack made their way into the boardroom, the door then closed behind them. The reality of what had happened didn’t yet sink in. I was now bound to Logan, an Alpha on a pack, a leader that was strong and loyal. I had never imagined that something like this would ever happen to someone like me. But, for some strange reason it just felt right, like it was supposed to be like this.Leaning against the wall, trying to catch my breath, feeling the weight of every single thing settling over me. Grace made her way over to me, she didn’t speak but the twinkle in her eyes said that she understood. She placed her hand on my shoulder, her touch was filled with comfort and reassurance. “It’s a lot, isn’t it?” She said her voice just above whisper.I nodded, “I didn’t expect… This feeling. The way everything had happened. Nobody ever tells you how it is to find your mate. They always just say that it is magical, I didn’t expect anything

Veronica’s POVThree days had passed, and there was still no sight of Logan. The waiting started to make a knot in my stomach. For the past few days I sat on the steps waiting for him, hoping that he would return home. My eyes were fixed on the distant road, I started imagining how I would react when he would walk up the road. The warmth of the sun’s rays tickled my skin, but it did little to calm the worry.Everyday went by longer and longer without him, and the questions still played through my mind.What if something had happened to him?What if he was laying lifeless somewhere? What if?The bond between Athina and I was growing stronger day by day, and her presence gave me confidence. But the fear of not knowing if Logan was okay or not, gnawed at me. Leaning forward, resting my chin on my knees, the silence of the mention was soothing. I could feel Grace’s gaze on me, I knew she was looking over me. She gave me space, but if I needed her she would be next to me in just seconds.
