Fighting For The Alpha's Mark Twenty-Five
Xavier I hate flights.But I'd rather be caught dead than say that out loud. My body never handled being in the air well. Every time I flew, the moment we landed, my head would spin. My stomach turned like it was still floating. I always needed something cold, either a splash of water on my face or a drink chilled enough to reset my senses. That was the only way I could regain some balance after stepping off a plane.Gregory knew. He never let me forget. From the moment we landed, he kept throwing little jabs, teasing me like it was the funniest thing in the world. I ignored him. That was the only way to win. If I gave any reaction, he’d keep going. To prove him wrong, I asked for nothing. No water. No drink. No help. I just powered through it.The drive to the hotel was a blur. The kind where your eyes are open, but you don’t really see anything. I must have been conscious because I walked myself to my room, but I couldn’t remember anything in between.“You think you’re funny, huh?”

On my wedding morning, I woke up next to a man who wasn’t my fiancé. My first instinct was to scream. But even that seemed difficult as my tongue felt heavy as a stone. Something was terribly wrong. Confused, I sat up, yanking the cream sheets to my chest. The stranger lay on his side, shirtless, with broad shoulders, defined muscles, and a wolf tattoo inked across his back. This wasn’t Ethan. This didn't even look like someone I know. I clamped my hand over my mouth. My dress from the bridal shower last night lay crumpled on the floor like it had been tossed carelessly. My brain felt like ice. Why couldn't I remember anything? With trembling hands, I reached for my thighs, desperately hoping that I had my panties on. Something slick coated my fingers and I knew. Jumping out of bed like it would bite me, I threw my clothes on carelessly, and tiptoed out of the room, running as fast as I could down the hallway to the suite we had booked for the bridal shower. It was empty. Not

Xavier I snuggled closer to my mate and reached for her again, craving the warmth of last night. My hand landed on a pillow. My eyes flew open. Cold air touched the spot where her body should’ve been. I shoved the sheets back and padded to the bathroom. Empty. Her scent, vanilla, and lavender, still clung to the air. I inhaled slowly like it was a drug. I let my body fall back, raising one arm above my head. A slow grin crept onto my face. She was gone, but the memory of last night was etched into my mind. Was she shy? Had she regretted giving herself to me like that? I’d had a few drinks with the other alphas who arrived to witness Ethan's wedding. The bar smelled like sweat and poor decisions. The kind of place that made you grateful for your own territory. The hotels in Ethan's pack were barely tolerable. This one just happened to suck the least. Last night, I checked in, got my room key, and freshened up. But to my greatest surprise, I stepped out of the bathroom and froz

Savannah Three weeks later The world had moved on. I hadn’t. I hadn’t left the house in days. The ache in my chest became too sharp to ignore. And now, I'd missed my period. I lay curled on the couch, staring blankly at the ceiling fan spinning above me. The TV flickered, but the scenes meant nothing, just empty laughter floating past like ghosts. Inside, it felt like war, grief throwing punches while fear curled in the corner, too tired to fight back. I prayed I was wrong. God, I had to be wrong. Because if there really was a baby growing inside me, my life wasn’t just over, it was a gamble with death. Werewolf pregnancies were dangerous. Getting rid of it was risky, as both mother and child could die. Memories of the humiliation rushed into my mind. I’d rushed back to the Grand Oak Hotel, demanding security footage, desperate to prove my innocence. But they wouldn’t give me access or tell me who’d been in the room I’d woken up in. "Please," I screamed at the receptionist

Savannah Five Years Later "Jermaine! Jace!" I called from the kitchen, drying my hands on a towel. "Pick up your things. Mommy has to go out soon." No answer. My pulse quickened. I abandoned the dishcloth and sprinted to their room, already imagining the worst. The silence was suspicious. My boys were never quiet unless something chaotic was happening. When I threw the door open, my heart stopped. Jermaine lay on the floor, eyes half-closed. “Jermaine!” I flew to his side. Jace was hovering over him with the oxygen mask in hand. “I was helping,” he said, eyes wide. “Like you do when he can’t breathe.” Jermaine groaned and blinked. He seemed fine. “Mommy, you get worried so much.” His twin agreed and they laughed. Relief crashed into me. I pulled them both close. My hands were still shaking. The dimples on their cheeks deepened as they chuckled. My chest caved in. Little Rascals. The floor that I had cleaned about an hour ago was surrounded by smears of paint, glitter gl

Savannah The car doors clicked shut. Trees blurred past in a dizzying smear of green. He was driving too fast. My heart pounded like a warning bell. Who was this man? What did he want? The questions echoed through my mind. More daunting was the fact that even though I knew I was seeing this man for the first time, it felt like he had always been a part of me. The mate bond made my wolf cry out for him. My fingers trembled as I fumbled with the door handle, making a frantic attempt to open it. “Please—let me out,” I begged. My fingers slipped on the door handle, sweat coating my palms. His eyes met mine through the rearview mirror. His eyes held a flicker of relief, but it was buried beneath a storm of fury. My limbs froze with terror. “Mommy!” his daughter chirped, reaching back to touch my hand, her eyes shining like this was the best day of her life. "He's our mate," my wolf cried inside me. "Our other half. Our destiny." But the bond didn’t soothe me. It terrified me.

Savannah My wolf thundered through the woods, crashing through brush and bolting between trees. My lungs burned. My legs ached. But I didn’t dare stop. The roads were too risky. If anyone saw me like this, I’d be caught. There was a law that we had to remain in human form on highways to avoid accidents. But I couldn’t shift back. I didn’t want Xavier to find me. I kept weaving through the trees, dodging roots, ignoring the sting of bees clinging to my fur. By the time I reached the outskirts of town, my legs felt like dead weight. My bones cracked and fur receded. I stumbled on two legs, trembling and pulling on my clothes, barely able to stand. I pushed forward until I reached the house, banging at the door. My heart spiked. Had Xavier already found out where I lived? Had he taken my boys? I slammed my fists harder. Finally, the lock clicked, and the door swung open to reveal an angry Eve. “What the hell is wrong with you? You disappear, don’t answer my calls, and now you're ba

SevenThe night stretched long and restless. I pulled the blankets higher, unable to sleep. The apartment felt too quiet. Eve had gone to her boyfriend's place, so it was just me and the boys.I had locked every door, checked every window twice. Still, I felt exposed, like Xavier was creeping into my space and pressing against the walls.A whimper broke through the silence. Jermaine was calling for me. My heart clenched as I scrambled out of bed and rushed to his side. He was curled up under the covers, struggling to breathe."Oh no, not now," I groaned, my heart banging against my rib cage."Baby," I knelt, brushing curls from his forehead. His skin burned under my palms. His eyes cracked open."Mommy," he said weakly.I scooped him into my arms, cradling him against my chest and rocking him. I reached for the bottle of medicine on the nightstand and pressed it to his lips."Here, sweetheart, just a little sip."He swallowed sluggishly. His breathing still sounded rough, but after a

Savannah After that close call, I longed and prayed for peace. But it seemed that prayer went straight into the void.Xavier found me in the kitchen. I had been slicing vegetables, trying to focus on the rhythm of the knife. He came up behind me without a sound and wrapped his arms around my waist. His chin brushed my shoulder, and he held me close."You don’t know how it gladdens my heart to see you doing normal stuff," he said warmly. He kissed my cheek, and my stomach twisted with a strange flutter.I smiled without thinking, already missing his touch when he pulled away. I turned my head, just enough to see him rinsing a green apple at the sink.He bit into the apple and then said, “Gregory wants to join us for lunch. Do you mind?”My knife froze in mid-air.Not Gregory. My first instinct was to say no. I didn’t want that liar near me. He made my skin crawl.But instead, I heard myself say, “That’s fine. I’ll make something nice.”Xavier smiled. “All right then. See you at lunch

Savannah I returned home, debating whether to give in and embrace my mate. But then I remembered I had lied that I was on my period, and he wasn't even home.The next morning, as I was preparing Adelaide for school, she suddenly asked, “Mommy, why does Daddy always drop me at school and not you?”The question hit me like a wave. It wasn’t the first time she’d asked.Adelaide had a habit of bringing up things like this constantly, and it was really starting to get on my nerves. How was it that kids these days were so damn smart? It was like they were born with the ability to see right through every adult lie. Just yesterday, the boys had asked who their daddy was, like they were running some kind of covert operation to uncover hidden family secrets. And now, sweet, sassy Adelaide, wanted me to go to her school and expose myself to the whole class like I was some kind of public spectacle. I swear, these kids were going to make me crack before I even hit thirty.“She’s right,” Xavier

Savannah Jace's panicked shout broke through the quiet afternoon, slicing through the stillness like a knife. My heart immediately dropped as I heard it, and without hesitation, I dropped the laundry basket I had been holding and rushed toward the source of the sound.When I reached the backyard, I saw him sprawled on the ground. His knee was scraped and bleeding, the sight of it making my stomach twist with worry."Jace!" I exclaimed, rushing to his side. "What did I tell you about climbing trees?"His lips quivered as he looked up at me, but despite the tears in his eyes, he managed to pout in that stubborn way only a child could. "I thought I was strong enough, Mommy."I sighed, trying not to show how worried I was. "Strength isn't just about climbing trees or doing reckless things. It's about listening and being careful."I scooped him up in my arms, feeling the warmth of his small body against mine as I carried him inside. The weight of his childish pride, mixed with the pain o

Savannah I adjusted my gown, choosing Sasha's deep blue fabric. Elegant and attention-grabbing without being too much. I added a golden belt to cinch my waist and sapphire earrings that dangled from my ears.Xavier entered the closet. His presence filled the room like sunlight. Our eyes met through the reflection in the mirror. His lips curved into a smile. He stepped closer, wrapping his arms around me."You're so beautiful," he whispered intimately while settling a hand on my stomach. The touch sent a warm shiver through me.Without meaning to, I turned to face him and brushed my lips against his, catching him off guard for a bit."Goodness, I'm sorry," I said, pulling away.But it felt as though my actions had stirred something within him as if they had taken on a life of their own. He drew me closer, placing his hand on the small of my back, and pulling me into him. His lips met mine with an intensity that sent a spark through me, and I felt everything else fade into the backgro

Savannah Sasha's mother's eyes, the same shade of grey as mine, moved slowly from my feet to my face. She sat down beside me without saying anything at first. Her hands folded in her lap, then she reached out and placed one over mine. Her voice came out in a whisper, soft and low.“Oh, my darling Sasha.”She held my hand and rubbed it gently like she was trying to soothe me or reassure herself that I was real.“How are you feeling today, my love? Any better?”I gave her a small smile, not out of comfort but to play the part. I tried to show a little confusion in my expression, like someone who could not fully remember their own story. I hoped it was believable.“A little,” I said, choosing my words carefully. “Still... Everything feels fuzzy. Like a dream I can’t quite grasp.”She nodded slowly and pulled her chair closer to the bed. She leaned forward again, reaching for my hand once more.“Have you had any dreams? Anything at all that feels familiar? Even a flash of a memory, perha

Savannah I clutched the thin hospital gown with both hands. My grip was tight, like I was holding onto something more than just cloth. I lay on the hospital bed, cold against my back, in the Neuroradiology room. The lights above hummed. I kept holding the gown as if it could shield me, not from the cold, but from everything I was hiding.Inside me, fear and guilt were tangled together. They pulled at each other, each trying to take control. I closed my eyes for a second and tried to breathe.“Stay still, Luna,” the doctor said.His voice was steady. Calm. Like it was any other day. He wasn’t suspicious. He didn’t speak with judgment. He didn’t look at me like I was anything different from any other patient. Just another file. Another case.But that name.Luna.It didn’t feel like a title. It didn’t feel like something earned. It felt heavy. Like something placed on me by mistake. A name that didn’t belong to me. A name that clung like wet clothes. Every time they said it, I heard the

Xavier The community center was filled with Alphas from different packs leaning toward one another, speaking in quiet voices. Their conversations overlapped, some discussing current affairs, others catching up or exchanging reports. We were all seated around a large oak table, scattered with maps and glasses of spiced wine.I sat quietly, tapping the armrest of my chair with my ball pen. The upcoming regional coronation sat heavy in my mind. Two months. That was the timeline, assuming Sasha’s memory returned and things fell into place.The others kept glancing toward me. Not all the time, but enough for me to notice. Some looked for a reaction. Some waited for approval. Others just needed to feel my presence. Being the revered one came with both weight and watchfulness. It gave me a voice, but it also made silence feel louder.Then, the doors opened.Henry walked in. Sasha’s grandfather.My jaw tightened before I could stop it. He always found something. Always. It did not matter ho

SavannahPacing around the terrace, my heart thudded against my chest like it wanted to break free. I walked faster, trying to match its rhythm, but it only made the tension worse. I was angry. More than angry. Heat crawled under my skin. Every time I thought about that lying, cheating scumbag, it pushed the rage higher.I couldn’t let him get away with it.But exposing myself to such danger was reckless and stupid. Gregory was dangerous. I didn’t have powers or strength that could stand against him. I had stolen Sasha’s identity, walked right into a life that wasn’t mine, and now I was planning to destroy a man who could easily destroy me. But the thought of staying quiet, of letting him continue to walk around with his smug face and his lies, was worse.I wanted him to fall. I wanted to watch it happen.If I was going down, I wasn’t going alone.Xavier needed to know the truth about the people close to him. He needed to see what Gregory really was. The man who stood at his side,
