Watching Elijah leave was something that I found incredibly difficult to do, but I didn't have a choice. Even if I had stayed in bed the entire time, I would have still known that he had left, and that his goodbye was going to be for quite some time, and not merely just for a run to the border, or someplace else. There had been a part of me that had considered suggesting that I go with him, but I knew that that would cause more trouble than anything else, because it would make him more of a target than anything else. I did not know much about travelling in your wolf form, but I did know that it was risky. It was something that my father rarely did, unless he was accompanied by other wolves. Your scent became more prominent, and you became more visible to the world around you. But as much as we could be considered as apex predators, we were prey to our own kind. Elijah would be travelling with a target on his back, bright, red and precise. All that it would take, would be one highly s

Even though I was now home alone, it did not feel right for me to be sitting downstairs, to actively be moving up and down, through the house. It still felt like I was a guest here, and even though I did not have as much energy and strength as I would have liked to have. I started making my way up the staircase. I knew that I would need to go back to my room, regardless of how much I would have enjoyed being in Elijah's bed. It was something that I could not do anything about, since I did not want anyone else to come in here and see me somewhere where I was not supposed to be. It would be quite simple to have Elijah explain everything to them, but having to do that myself when he was not here, seemed like quite a daunting task. I did not think that I would be able to do it, despite the fact that I knew that Gwen would be the only person who would have any reason to come here. I just did not want to take any chances, because I knew just as well as anyone that anything could happen. I
His Beta's Daughter C H A P T E R 98 - Gwen.
'Gwen... I would appreciate it if you could come here now...' I nearly jumped out of my skin when I heard Samantha's voice echo through my head, for I had been nearly convinced that she had spoken right here next to me. But that was not the case. There had been something about the tone of her voice that warned me about the fact that there was something wrong. I didn't know how I knew, but I was willing to call it a gut feeling. I had been sitting on my sofa up until that moment, waiting for an acceptable time to start making my way there, but now I was starting to wonder if it was possible that I had taken to long. Was she shifting? 'I am on my way. Are you shifting?' I felt like I needed to know what was going on, what it was that I was going to walk into when I got there, because as much as I wanted to say that I was prepared for it, I knew that I was not. On the contrary, I was the furthest thing from fine that you could possibly be, my own heart rate spiking through the roof. I

When I walked into the house, I felt like it was safe for me to say that I was far from prepared for the stench that hit my nostrils. I did not know what it was, but I did know that it had no business being in a house. And what made me feel somewhat strange, was the fact that I knew Alpha Elijah would have been able to pick up on this smell if he had been here. Which made me question just when the stench had arrived. It was nauseating, and in all honesty, I was convinced that I would be running to the bathroom at any moment now, vomiting up anything that had been in my stomach. "Samantha?" I decided that finding out where she was, would be my first order of business. Once I knew that she was safe, and that her life was not at risk, then I would be able to make informed decisions about everything else. It would also give me some time to recover from my run here, and hopefully, it would be enough and I would feel better. Regardless of how I felt, if Samantha needed to be protected, th

I opened Samantha's closet, finding that there was no one in it - and it seemed like there was barely any clothes in it as well. It was something that I found slightly confusing, since I had been through the entirety of the house already, and there was no one anywhere. And yet, the stench was here. It was most prominent in her bedroom, and yet, there were barely any hiding places here. After all, the only place that was left, was the cabinet. Was it possible that I was missing something, that there was somethign that I hadn't thought of? If that was the case, then I was going to be in a lot more trouble than I knew us to be. It was easy to pick up on the fact that there was someone here, but finding them proved to be tricker than I would have imagined. I had been under the impression that I would open a cabinet and they would jump out at me, but it was not that simple. On the contrary, it seemed like things were far from being that simple. I was not going to be lucky enough to get ou

I must have fallen asleep sometime during the time that Gwen had left, but when I came to, I definitely was not in the bed that I had fallen asleep in. I hadn't even woken up in Elijah's bed. I woke up, tied to one of the chairs in the dining room. I had no recollection of how I had gotten there, but when I saw the rogue that we had caught underneath my bed sitting in front of us, swirling a knife in her hand, I could make some assumptions. "Nice of you to join us." I turned towards the voice that spoke, and found no one other than Gwen, tied up in the exact same way as I was. And I dared to say, she looked like she had gotten a punch or two to the face, quite recently, since the bruising had not yet healed by itself. But even as I looked at her, the color started to change from blue to yellow. I turned back to the rogue, feeling a strange heaviness in my eyes, a heaviness that did not feel entirely right. I had been sleeping the whole day, but I also knew that I hadn't felt like t

As much as I would have liked to pretend that the statement that the rogue had made, was just another statement, I knew that my true emotions were bound to be showing on my face. After all, it wasn't everyday that someone made a statement like that. To be so easily able to sum someone up, seemed like a dangerous perk to have in your favour. But then again, when you've been a rogue for goodness knows how long, you should be more than capable of judging people. "So, are you going going to make this easy for me, or are you going to make me guess? Because I already have a good idea on which one of you it is." Once again, Gwen and I turned to look at one another, both of us knowing that this was going to be a tough thing to get ourselves out of. I didn't know what to do. The obvious answer would be to mind-link someone else to come and see us, but that was something that was easier said than done. If we involved someone else in this, it meant that it would only be a matter of time until

It seemed like Matthew's decision to get the ball rolling was what Gwen needed to spring into action. She had gagged the rogue, and despite the fact that I had believed that I had done a good job in terms of hiding the pills that I had stolen from my father, Gwen found them in a matter of moments. To my complete and utter surprise, she had removed the gag and shoved one down the rogues throat, practically causing her to choke on it before gagging her again. I didn't know what had transpired between the two of them before I had managed to regain my consciousness, but if I had to take a guess, then I would say that Gwen was getting back at her for everything that she had done. And I couldn't blame her for it. On the contrary, I encouraged it. Through it all, Matthew had started to sweep up the mess on the floor, temporarily taping it closed with bin liners. It might not have been the best solution, but he had already explained to me that it would only ensure that he would be able to

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
His Beta's Daughter C H A P T E R 119 - Samantha.
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
