C H A P T E R 57 - Sam.

I laid in bed, staring up at the ceiling, feeling like I had already memorised the locations of all of the indents and imperfections on it. I had lost track of what the time was, and I didn't actually want to take the time to check either. I knew that it would only wake me up more, and where was that going to get me? Absolutely nowhere. I was already making things difficult by laying here with my eyes open instead of closing my eyes and doing something as foolish as counting sheep to get myself to sleep. If someone were to hear the way that I was talking to myself, they would be bound to think that I was crazy. And maybe I actually was...

Or I was just on the way there. But that did not matter, for the facts remained the same.

After my encounter with Elijah, I had fulfilled my instructions and I had done what I had needed to do to go to bed. I had used up as much hot water as I possibly could have when I had gone to bath, although, I doubted that it had as much of an effect on him a

    Just as I had been expecting, I was nothing short of being exhausted when I woke up the next morning. Every fibre of my being screamt at me for staying awake as late as I had last night, and my encounter with Jace hadn't helped one bit. On the contrary, I believed that it had kept me awake for much longer than I would have been. Maybe I was wrong, but I did not think that I was. But there was no use in crying over spilt milk. It wouldn't get me anywere. I just needed to focus on making it through the day and then take it from there. Maybe if I was lucky, I would be able to take a nap, but I knew that that was something that I would not be able to bank on just yet. I would need to use my energy sparingly because if I was burnt out by the time that lunchtime rolled around, I wouldn't even manage with the walk home. And I wasn't just saying all of this for the sake of it, I was saying it because I knew myself, and I knew what I was capable of and what I was not. This was one of those si

    I didn't know why, but when I got to school, there had been a part of me that had been expecting Jace to be here, but as I acknowledged the fact that he was not, I could not help but feel a little bit relieved. I did not think that I would be able to face him for the entirety of the day, knowing that he was the under the impression that I was going to be his mate. It was something that I refused to believe would be possible, but I also knew better than to shut off the possibility completely. In the event that I did that, I doubted that I would get anywhere. But of course, Jace not being here, had it's won downsides as well - for starters, there came the fact that I still did not know anyone here. He was the only person who had dared to speak to me yesterday, and I had the feeling that no one would be willing to bite the bullet today. After all, I was only going to be here for another day. What would be the point in anyone making an effort with me only for me to disappear and go and f

    "Well, well, well. Look who the cat dragged in. I was starting to think that you weren't going to show up." I knew that Alpha Elijah would easily be able to pick up on the fact that this was nothing more than playful banter, but I did know that I needed to thread lightly, because I could tell by the expression on his face, that he wasn't happy. There was clearly something that was bothering him, and if I had to take a guess, I would pin the blame on no one other than Samantha. She was the only person who could get under his skin in the particular way that she managed to, and I didn't even think that she realised that she was doing it. It was one of the many things that led me to believe that the two of them were destined to be mates. There was still a chance that I was going to be wrong, but I doubted that it would be the case. He didn't even acknowledge my statement, and instead, walked directly past me. I didn't know where he was going, but it seemed like he hadn't come here with

    No matter how long Alpha Elijah sparred with the people who were here, he did not seem to lighten up in terms of the way that he was feeling. All along, I had been under the impression that his emotions would lighten up once he got everything out of his system, but it just wasn't happening. It was something that baffled me, and I was starting to get more and more curious in terms of knowing what it was that was making him feel this way. If I didn't know any better, then I would have gone ahead and asked him what was going on, but I did not want to find myself as the focus of his rage. But it seemed like luck was on my side for once, because I must have suffered for long enough. I said this because Samantha walked through the doors to the gymnasium. The only reason why I knew that, was because of the fact that I could see the change in Alpha Elijah's posture, in the way that he tensed. I had heard the door opening, but I had to turn around to see that it was her. But Alpha Elijah had

    I would never find myself in a position where I believed myself to be right without having reason to believe so, and it was for that very reason that I could do nothing more than to stare at Elijah and think him to be an idiot. I could not believe that he was acting in this manner, that he was going to try and hold the fact that I had been late against me. I did not entirely know what I was going to do in terms of managing this situation, but I was not going to allow it to get to me. Not even in the slightest. I refused. If Elijah was so determined to fight with me, then he was going to be in for a big surprise, because he was just going to be fighting with himself. "I'm the one who decides what your gradings will be, Samantha. Not your lecturers, and certainly not anyone else. The decision is mine, and at the rate that you're going, I find you not worthy of doing something important." He did not need to say much more for me to know what he was saying to me. When my father had initi

    As I watched Samantha spar with our head enforcer, Matthew, I could not help but to acknowledge the fact that she was destined for combat. I did not know what it was that made her combat technique so special, but I could tell that she had a knack for it. She seemed to possess the ability to get Matthew to perform a specific set of moves and techniques, and just when it seemed like Matthew was gaining the upper hand, the tables turned and she was able to put him in his place. I did not know how Matthew managed to bounce back every time, but that was also not something that I was concerned about. "Ah, for fuck sakes!" Matthew's exclamation as he fell to the ground, came as no surprise to me. It was yet another one of those instances where she had backed him into a corner without him realising it. I could see that he was upset, and he was more than ready to shift and attack her to teach her a lesson, but I had made a rule that we were not allowed to shift. I did not know how well she w

    Matthew stalked off, clearly unimpressed by the fact that I had managed to best him. In all honesty, I hadn't given him much of a choice in the matter. I had gotten tired of the back and forth, because regardless of what I did to make him realise what he was doing, he just did not seem to get it. I didn't want to be one of those people, but I did not think that it was something to be proud of. After all, as the head of enforcers, he was supposed to be able to take notice of things like that, and since he was the one who was doing them, he should have been able to pick up on it himself. Despite the fact that Matthew was upset by what was going on, it seemed to me like Elijah and Gwen did not share in those sentiments. They were more than amused, and even though I wished that I could share in their feelings, I was too exhausted to do so. I didn't have it in me to find any humour in this situation, and on the contrary, I just wanted to go home and get into bed. And hopefully, I would no

    It had not been my intention to strike her with that particular response, but I found that I was incapable of keeping it in for much longer. I had been allowing it to eat at me since I had discovered it, and the fact that I had managed to keep it in until now had been a surprise in itself. Admittedly, I had had something else to distract myself with, something to occupy my mind until now. But now that I was forced to acknowledge the possibility that the only reason why she wanted to go home, was in order to meet that scoundral of hers again. I had gone home this afternoon for a change of clothes, to dress appropriately for my afternoon in the gymnasium. I had gone into the bathroom in the hallway out of desperation to relieve my bladder, when I caught a whiff of something that didn't belong in my house, And I followed it, finding the source to be none other that Samantha's room. And it definitely belonged to a person, and not simply to a possession that someone had borrowed her. She

    Hello! I'd like to thank all of you for reading this story as far as you have, and I hope that you have enjoyed it thus far. Please note that we have now concluded with Book 1! Can you believe it? It feels like it happened in the blink of an eye. I would like to encourage all of you to read Book 2, which will pick up exactly where we left off. It will be free for an extended period of time (I thought that might be better than keeping this book going). The title is: The Alpha's Heir Let's hope that that doesn't give too much away!

    Once I heard his voice, the sound carrying as clearly through the air as if he had been standing right beside me, I could not keep myself from stepping to the side, from looking past my father, who had turned around to face him. It seemed like the statement had been just as shocking to him as it had been to Gwen and I, because neither one of us had been expecting Elijah be back here as soon as he was. It was safe to say that I was in shock. I did not know what was happening, but even though Elijah was quite some distance away from me, from all of us, I could not help but pick up on the magnetic pull that I had towards him. I didn’t know why I hadn’t been able to pick up on it before, but then again, for all I knew it had something to do with the fact that my father had been here, that his dominating personality had forced me to do nothing more than sit here and listen to what he had to say. As Elijah continued to close the distance between himself and us, his scent started to drift

    “Where is Alpha Elijah? Is he deliberately avoiding me, or do you have something to do with it?” My heart felt like it was sinking into the pit of my stomach, my father’s presence on the front porch being more than an overwhelming factor. And what made the situation so much worse, was the fact that he knew that he had the upper hand here, knew that there was a certain effect that he had on me that would always be superior. And all that I could do in that moment, was to freeze and stare at him in disbelief.Thankfully for my sake, it seemed like it would not be necessary for me to do much else other than to be present, because Gwen appeared beside me, seeming to be more prepared for what was going on than I was. I could not help but be thankful for the fact that she was intervening in the situation, because there was no way in hell that I would have been able to handle the situation. “Beta Luke. I must say that I’m rather surprised to see you here. Did Alpha Elijah request to see you

    I got out of the bathtub and wrapped a towel around my body, feeling the ache that was starting to set into my bones due to the run that I had just been on. Gwen had put me as a patrol check, which meant that I had to make sure that all of the deltas that she had assigned to the border patrol squads, were there. And thankfully, up until now, there had been no one who hadn’t been where they had needed to be and I had to admit that it was something that made me feel quite relieved. I knew that it would only be a matter of time before Gwen arrived here in order to find out if everyone was where they were supposed to be, and in all honesty, I hoped that it would take her much longer than I thought it would. I wanted to be able to get to my room, and at least get into a clean set of clothes. After all, if I was dressed and comfortable, I would be able to lie to anyone who came here looking for Elijah. Lying to the pack was something that was becoming harder and harder, but between Gwen, M

    There was a knock on the door to the room that I was in, and even though I had been half asleep, it was enough to wake me. And, it seemed like my visitor did not need permission to come inside, for the door just opened, before I had the chance to make myself presentable. Even though I must have been sleeping for quite some time – why else would it be dark outside? – I didn’t feel like I had been resting at all. It just proved how exhausted I actually was, but I had just been ignoring it instead of addressing it.My guest turned out to be no one other than the Alpha’s son. And he looked a lot more presentable now, than he had been before. I had to admit that it was something that I was thankful for, although I could not tell him that. I doubted that he would be very happy or impressed with me if I were to make a comment about his earlier lack of attire. I knew how to pick my fights, and picking ANY fight while I was here, would be like signing my death

    All too soon, I found myself following the boy - who seemed to be quite comfortable with his nakedness - through their packlands - and it was safe to say that I was starting to understand why it had been possible for them to have so many wolves on patrol. Their pack was larger than anything I had seen before - twice the size of mine, with even less space. It was something that made me feel rather uncomfortable, like I was walking through a suburb instead of a town. They seemed to be unphased by it, but how could they be bothered by something that they lived with on a daily basis? I was keeping quiet as I walked behind him, for I was painfully aware of the fact that he was not the person whom I needed to be speaking to at this time. There were two other wolves walking on either side of me, both of them seeming to be more than prepared in terms of defense. It was almost like they were waiting for me to do something, like they wanted a reason to injure me. I, on the other hand, did not

    I had been running for what felt like an eternity, but I knew that it would only be a matter of time before I reached the Northern Pack. It had not been an ideal route that I had taken, but I knew it to be the fastest one, and luckily for my sake, I had not come across any problems along the way - and by problems, I meant rogues. It was a small mercy that I was incredibly thankful for. But I knew that it must have been because the Moon Goddess had mercy on me, because she knew that I was going to have quite a hard time when I entered that pack. I would be under attack as if I was a rogue, and the only way for me to prevent that, would be to speak to them and tell them who I was.But even so, Samantha had warned me that even though her father had left the pack, he still had more than enough members in the pack who acted as spies for him. I did not want information about my research to get back to him before I managed to get back to the pack. I wanted to be there to confr

    I could tell that my statement had caught him off guard, because his eyes widened slightly as he looked at me. I had to admit that it was a rather satisfying sight to see, and I could only hope that I would somehow be able to keep my composure while I spoke to him. If he started to challenge me, I was sure that I would struggle, but until then, I was going to be brave about it. I sent a silent prayer to the moon goddess, asking her to make sure that I had the strength that I would need to stand up to him for as long as I possibly needed to. ‘What did you just say?’ The shock in his voice was as vivid as it was on his face, and I knew that he was not going to like what I was going to say to him. But that was the point of it, was it not? I was disobeying him, and it wouldn’t be for the first time. The only thing that made this different, is that it was actually upsetting him this time around. And I wanted to know why. ‘I said that I’m not going to listen to you. I’m not going to stop

    I found myself standing outside Elijah's house, watching it from a distance and finding myself to be rather indecisive. I did not know whether or not I was supposed to go inside, or whether I was supposed to go back to Gwen's house. I knew that it would not really matter where it was that I went, because no one would be able to tell that that was where I was, but it was merely one of those things that I had no control over at the moment. The only way for that to change, was to wait it out. And whether I waited it out here, or in Gwen's house, I doubted that it would matter. As long as I was somewhere where I could be found, I doubted that it would be much of a problem. I wanted nothing more than to be able to shift back, and take a bath - I could feel the dirt between my toes and the sand in my fur, but I also knew that the chances of me being able to do that, were somewhat slim to none. I would need to wait until someone could explain to me how I was supposed to shift back. And unt
