Chicago Alpha Chapter 20: Daddy Dearest
Clarissa's P.O.VThe events of what I had done did not sit well with many, but I didn't care about the new power running through my veins. I was protecting what was mine, and the woman had tried to have me killed.As far as I was concerned, I did everyone a favor by taking her life. Antonio grew concerned for my state of mind, and I heard the argument the night before he had with Doctor Lewis when he asked about the results.Doctor Lewis did what he was commanded to do, and Alyssa said that Antonio had picked up on the fact he was vague. It didn't matter how much Antonio tried to control him with his Alpha tone; it couldn't override my words. Another thing that had everyone worried, and I watched as Thomas and Joseph seemed to watch me from the shadows. "She is like a ticking time bomb, Alyssa." The calm voice of Joseph was heard outside my bedroom door, followed by Alyssa's."Oh, stop it. You all are acting ridiculous. First, you are concerned because she wasn't like a normal wolf, a
Chicago Alpha Chapter 21: A bond for a lifetime
Clarissa's P.O.V.Alyssa's sleek, black car pulled into the driveway slowly before coming to a stop. It only took a moment for the front door to fly open and my eyes to look into the mesmerizing brown of Antonio's.His breaths came in heavy as I watched the rise and fall of his chest. The feeling of his anger and concern came rolling off him in waves. "Miss me?" I said with a smile as I stood waiting for his reaction.There was no doubt that he was contemplating his next move as he tried to decide what to do. Antonio did not take kindly to people disobeying him, from what I could tell. However, his questionable look and persistent staring were making me uncomfortable. Taking slow steps, I attempted to move past him into the house.However, Antonio's hand reached out, gripping my arm, halting my movements. Slowly, as his head turned and his eyes made contact with mine, I knew I was in trouble. The action in which he quickly pushed my body against the front door took my breath away. H
Chicago Alpha Chapter 22: Secrets
Antonio's P.O.VThe sun filtered through the sheer curtains of the room, glistening off the walls and casting shadows across the open area. Looking to my left, I smiled at the beautiful sight of my mate resting peacefully.I couldn't believe that I had finally completed the mate bond with the remarkable woman beside me. Clarissa was everything I had ever wanted in a woman and so much more. Now that the bond was completed, every ounce of uncertainty I had regarding her was gone.Clarissa stirred beside me, her eyes fluttering slowly. The sapphire hue of the beautiful eyes looked up at me as a smile adorned her flawless face."Good Morning, mate." Her voice wrapped around my heart and made me smile."Good Morning, mi amor." Clarissa leaned up, kissing me softly as her hands graced the sides of my face gently. A low growl emitted from my chest in satisfaction with how my mate kissed me. I wanted her again more than anything beneath me.However, what she had said last night kept swirling
Chicago Alpha Chapter 23: Trust
Clarissa's P.O.VNever did I imagine my life would be so complicated. Many things had been happening over the last few months, and it seemed only to get crazier on top of meeting my mate and finding out that I am an unusual supernatural creature. Antonio has kept me at the house and took care of many of my issues from my life before him.One of which was my apartment. Antonio had got rid of my apartment soon after I had come to stay with him. When I asked about going to pack it up, he proceeded to let me know he had done that ages ago. To say I was furious was an understatement.Fucking asshole.When I asked about returning to work, he told me that I had resigned from my job weeks ago. To say I was pissed.. well, my eye started twitching.I knew I was his mate, and as Luna of his pack, I had responsibilities. However, Antonio had to learn that certain decisions needed to be made with me, and if he couldn't understand that, then I couldn't either, which is what I was contemplating whi
Chicago Alpha Chapter 24: Stories for the Betrayed
Clarissa's p.o.vThe chime of the diner door was like refreshing music to my ears. It reminded me of my favorite coffee shop I used to go to before work every morning. The diner was outdated, with white-tiled floors, black booths, and light green trim. The glass cabinets by the register holding pies and desserts of all kinds.My curiosity kept asking why Torrez would pick such a place to meet.Casting my eyes towards Torrez, and I felt my brows narrow as he smiled at me. "Clarissa." The sound of my father's voice felt wrong and unwelcoming. Despite my nerves, I walked towards him and slid into the seat across. He was dressed to impress, and I noticed he seemed to take in every detail of me, as if reliving a memory."Cut the bullshit. What do you want to tell me?" My irritation was clear, and I was counting the seconds until I could leave. I just had to remember that it was vital for me to get any information from him, even if that meant being firm-handed to get it. "Patience, my dear,
Chicago Alpha Chapter 25: Fury for the Missing
Antonio's P.O.V."Antonio, she's gone."Those words spoken were like a stab to my heart. How was she gone? It made no sense. "There was no trace of her at the diner. Just your car parked in the parking lot, and a bunch of confused workers saying they never saw her."Alyssa's words moved around my mind like a fog, but I couldn't understand what she was saying. I felt an uneasy feeling in my chest as confliction of worry and anger soared through me. A roar unlike any I have ever heard resonated through my estate, and it took a moment for me to realize it was coming from me. "Where is she?!!!"I couldn't control Zeus, and as his fury took over, he unleashed hell upon the property. The pack wolves hurried to take shelter as Zeus began to destroy furniture and other property as if nothing could stop him. My eyes zeroed in on Alyssa, who held a gun to my face."You were supposed to protect her!" I roared."Antonio, you need to calm down so we can figure out what happened. You can not keep t
Chicago Alpha Chapter 26: Captive
Clarissa's P.O.V.Have you ever awoken from a deep sleep and found yourself confused by your surroundings? The light-emitting from the window above me gave way to the difference between day and night. However, I was still unsure of where I was or how long I had been gone.Foolishly, I had let myself be captured by Torrez and his men. Looking at my wrists, I took note of the silver shackles clasped around them. I could vaguely recall being brought in and placed onto a cold surface while men in white coats surrounded me. A moment was all I got as I reached out to Antonio. The memory of his voice consuming me made my chest tighten in pain. This was precisely what I had promised him wouldn't happen, and I couldn't begin to imagine what he was going through right now. The room I was being held in was dark and reeked of death. I didn't remember being moved here, but I figured it had something to do with the needles that they had stuck in me.Whatever they had done left bruises scattered up
Chicago Alpha Chapter 27: The Informant
Alyssa's P.O.V"The sedative is working; Antonio is finally sleeping. I can't keep giving it to him, though. We have to find another alternative to calm his wolf." Doctor Lewis looked at Joseph and me with concern.Antonio had caused more havoc around the lands than we had imagined. His wolf Zeus wanted the blood of those who had taken his mate, and he wasn't the only one wanting that revenge. Turning, I quickly collected my backpack and picked up my sword, placing it into the sheath at my back. Joseph and I discussed the alternative, and that was with me finding where Alyssa was taken so Antonio could release his anger.Clarissa wasn't just a job that I had taken so many years ago. The girl had become my best friend, my sister. I would protect her with my life, and if that meant taking more lives in the process, then so be it.Joseph gave me a nod as I straddled the black bike beneath me and started the engine. "Alyssa, contact me if anything happens. Even if you are taken, use the c

Chicago Alpha Chapter 50: Mexico
Antonio's P.O.V.Waking up, I couldn't help but smile as I thought of my beautiful mate. She was officially my Luna and the mother figure of the pack. She was beyond what I had ever dreamed of having for a mate and far more the woman anyone could have imagined her to be.Sure, she was different, but those differences were nothing that would change my opinion of her.Looking over to her side of the bed, I noticed the vacant spot and how cold the area felt. Knowing her, she probably had gone downstairs to get something to eat. Lord knows my mate loved Martha's cooking.Wasting no time, I quickly climbed from the bed and jumped in the shower. It would be a very long day, and there was so much that needed to be done.A knock came on my bedroom door as I was pulling on my shirt, and without being able to answer it, Joseph came barging into the room. I found myself shocked as to what would make him seem too frantic, "Joseph, what is the problem? You look pale, my friend." I chuckled and cont
Chicago Alpha Chapter 49: Officially His Luna
Clarissa's P.O.V."As I will ever be, I guess." Taking a deep breath, I walked out of the library, ready for the next step of my life.The sun had set long ago, and within that setting, sunlight came the tiny twinkling lights along the grass that illuminated a small walkway. The girls stood behind me and ushered me to follow the path, and with a smile upon my face, I nodded. This was it.My feet moved slowly forward, and my eyes cast into the distance. I knew that Antonio was at the end of this walkway, and I was making my way towards him and our future. There was nothing more that I wanted than to spend the rest of my life with him. I couldn't stop thinking about everything that had happened over the past few months. From the first time I met him; to the first time he kissed me. The way his breath felt against my skin and the look in his eyes when he was staring at me. Nothing but utter happiness filled my soul when I was with Antonio. I felt safe; protected. I would love him for al
Chicago Alpha Chapter 48: To Many Loose Ends
Clarissa's P.O.V."The child Maria Carmen was a human/fae hybrid, but she was murdered as a child, or so said the queen, who disappeared years after that."Alyssa's words rang in my ears, and I wasn't sure how to take what she was saying. Perhaps it was a different Maria Carmen. There was no way that any of that was true. "Maybe it's a different Maria Carmen.""Perhaps, but that is way too weird for words. Something that definitely needs to be checked into, eventually. If you are the child of Maria Carmen, there is a lot more that you need to be aware of." Alyssa looked at me with concern, and I was starting to wonder if my life was some ironic sitcom movie."Like what?" I groaned internally."Uh, like how the Fae world never approved of the hybrid notion being inflicted in their pure bloodline. That was why other Fae colonies tried to send hired assassins to murder Maria."My mouth formed an 'o' shape at hearing Alyssa, and I couldn't help but slowly nod. "Yeah, that can be seen as a
Chicago Alpha Chapter 47:New Information
Clarissa's P.O.V.Antonio's playful nature was a godsend when recovering from everything. My feet graced the steps two at a time as I jogged down the stairs, coming face to face with Leah."Can I speak with you?"Raising a brow, I nodded out of curiosity. There wasn't much conversation that had ever happened between this girl and me, and I didn't understand what she would have to say to me now."What's up?""I wanted to apologize for everything. I shouldn't have acted as I did, and I feel horrible." Crossing my arms, I stared at her as she continued apologizing, "I was under the impression that Diana was my friend. We used to tell each other everything, and when she left, she said it was because Antonio was hurting her and that he was cruel. I never thought she would lie to me like that."Hearing that Diana had portrayed my mate as a man that hurt women boiled my blood. How dare she taint my mate's image? Listening to Leah, I began to realize that she was played, and even though she ha
Chicago Alpha Chapter 46: Taking It All In
Antonio's P.O.V.Sitting here watching Clarissa's beautiful face brought tears to my eyes; she seemed so carefree and joyful. Clarissa laughed with Alyssa and the others as if nothing terrible had ever happened to her, and I didn't know what it was to have such a carefree life. The whites of her teeth sparkling in the sunlight as Alyssa said something else, and the giggling fit would begin once again. Clarissa was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen, and there was nothing I wouldn't do for her. The sun shone down on her bare flesh as she warmed herself in the rays of light.Thomas and Leah kicking a ball back and forth to each other in the distance before Cassio scoops up a screaming Alyssa and drops her into our pool. Everything was falling into place, and yet I couldn't stop thinking about the truth.When we found Clarissa in her father's home, she changed.Clarissa was still the same woman, but she was so much different from the scared girl I once knew. Clarissa had grown into
Chicago Alpha Chapter 45: Home Sweet Home
Clarissa's P.O.VThere was nothing like being back in our bed. It didn't matter where a person could travel in the world; at the end of the day, being back in your bed was pure happiness. Antonio's strong arms wrapped around my waist and brought me closer to him as he inhaled the scent of my hair deeply. "Good Morning, beautiful."Smiling, I rolled over and looked at him, "Good Morning, sir." There was no use in trying to forget what had happened in Florida. My father and Brantley worked together to destroy my life and that of every other supernatural creature. Alyssa said that she had learned a lot going through Torrez's documents.It turns out Torrez had been working for years trying to turn the inner circle against us and anyone who wasn't a pure wolf. He was doing it for control. Infiltrate and take down the top from the inside. Antonio was adamant that, when we first got home, there would be no discussion of everything that happened, but Alyssa and I both knew that there needed t
Chicago Alpha Chapter 44: Wrath of a Luna Part Two
Clarissa's P.O.V.My blades swung freely as I maneuvered through the array of bodies. The rush of adrenaline that coursed through me fueled my vengeful desires. My mind replayed the events of everything that had happened, and the one thing I was more sure of than anything was that Antonio was mine.Love was the emotion that overwhelmed me the most, and as the last specks of blood spattered against my skin, I saw him.Antonio stared at me with wide eyes, but love held him in place. A smile decorated his lips, and the stubble of worry that crossed his chin was enough to make a girl fluster. "Clarissa..." when he said my name, it was as if he couldn't believe I was before him. Before a word could leave my mouth, a cry escaped my lips as a searing pain rippled through me. Looking down, I saw the silver of a blade sticking from my body. It was quickly jerked back, and I looked up into the eyes of Antonio, who seemed paralyzed with panic before screaming out, "Clarissa! No!"I didn't die, l
Chicago Alpha Chapter 43: Wrath of a Luna Part One
Clarissa's P.O.V.Nadia had prepared my appearance, but no one could prepare me mentally for what I would be walking into. There was nothing that could prepare me for that. Imagine waking up one morning expected for your day to be as typical as it always was, and in the blink of an eye, it's something else.I always thought of destiny as something we created for ourselves, but I have learned that destiny is also something that others can help create for you. There was a time when I would have given anything to be that girl a man would do anything for. Right now, though, I wished I would have just been alone. I hated the fact that Antonio and the others were walking into a trap.There was no doubt in my mind that they were on their way or already here waiting to set me free. It was just a matter of time, and even though they were skilled warriors; no one is immune from death.Walking down the long white hallways, my eyes cast to the floor; I allowed the guard to lead me to where Brantl
Chicago Alpha Chapter 42: Determination
Antonio's P.O.V.Torrez's property looked like something off of MTV's Cribs, and the luxury he had spent on the home was outrageous. I could feel a surge of emotions from the property in front of me, and I knew Clarissa was there.Alyssa and Cassio had set off moments ago to scope the outside of the property, and while I waited on their return, it took everything in me for Zeus not to run wild. Clarissa was my beautiful mate, and I felt guilty for not telling her enough; for not telling her that I loved her enough. I couldn't begin to imagine what it would be like if I got in there and she was dead. The thought of her death sent despair through my soul and made Zeus cry out in pain. "Antonio." Joseph's voice pulled me from my thoughts, and I turned around to see him standing with Alyssa and Cassio. "What did you find?""It looks like the south entrance will be the best way in. It's water access for the most part and is the least guarded. Probably because they don't think we would lo
