I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA 80: NO PEACE
As I was about to leave Alpha Jo’s chambers, Maria walked in, her presence immediately altering the atmosphere. Her eyes darted between Alpha Jo and me, a calculating gleam in them."Ava," Maria said, her voice smooth but with an edge, "I didn't expect to see you here. What brings you to Alpha Jo’s chambers at this hour?""I came to ensure Nashville's defenses are ready," I replied, not willing to divulge too much.Maria's eyebrows arched in feigned surprise. "Oh, really? And what makes you think they aren’t?"I narrowed my eyes at her, feeling a surge of suspicion. "We've received intelligence that the bandits might attack soon. I needed to make sure Alpha Jo and his men were prepared.""Interesting," she said, a sly smile tugging at her lips. "And what exactly is your plan, Ava? You seem to be taking quite a lot of initiative lately."I glanced at Alpha Jo, who looked increasingly uncomfortable. "My plan is to defend Nashville and protect our people, Maria. Isn’t that what we all wa
I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA 81: TOUGH CALLS
When my men gathered for the meeting, I could see the determination in their eyes, their readiness to follow through with whatever plan I had devised. Taking a deep breath, I began to address them, my voice firm and resolute.They looked surprised because they thought I had given them the last instructions and were supposed to be on their way. But I had a change of plans as I was not going to trust Maria fully in going to a battle I felt she had planned.“Thank you all for coming,” I started, looking around at the familiar faces of my trusted allies. “After careful consideration, I’ve decided on our next course of action. We will be splitting into two smaller units to cover more ground and respond quickly to any threats.”Karim was shocked, but he wanted to know more, his expression serious but confident. “Ava, what’s the new plan?”I met his gaze, knowing how much I relied on his support. “Karim, I’m assigning you and a few of our best men to head to the Riverlands. We must secure th
I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA 82: HERE COMES THE BANDITS
The morning sun had barely risen when Chifo rushed into my tent, his face etched with urgency. "Ava, there's been a coordinated attack on Uptown by the bandits. The soldiers there can't drive them back. It looked like Uptown had been taken over by bandits,"His words hit me like a cold wave, but I forced myself to stay composed. "What are you suggesting, Chifo?"He took a deep breath. "I think we should try and help them. We can't just stand by while they suffer."I shook my head firmly. "No, Chifo. We can only secure one part of the town until the other two teams arrive. If we spread ourselves too thin, we’ll be vulnerable to an attack here as well. We have to hold our ground."Chifo’s face tightened with frustration, but he nodded. "I understand. But what about any news from the other teams? Have we heard anything?"I sighed, the weight of the situation pressing down on me. "No, nothing yet. We can’t make any moves until we know where everyone stands. Our priority is to hold this po
I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA 83: FINDING LOSSES
We started the tiring task of questioning the bandits we had captured. Each one was brought forward, their faces a mix of defiance and fear. We needed answers, especially about Alpha Jo's whereabouts.One by one, we questioned them. Some were hardened criminals, their eyes cold and unyielding. But many were just desperate men, recruited to swell the bandits' numbers. They told us where their camps were, and their merciless leaders, but none could tell us anything about Alpha Jo. Each futile answer only deepened our frustration.As the interrogations dragged on, I decided to search the chambers one last time, hoping against hope to find some clue. The grand hall was eerily quiet, the remnants of opulence now cloaked in shadows and despair. I moved through the rooms, my footsteps echoing against the cold stone floors.Then, in one of the side chambers, I found her. Lita. Her body lay crumpled on the floor, her lifeless eyes staring into the void. My heart sank, and a wave of grief and g
I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA 84: TOGETHER
As we settled back into camp, weary from the day’s mission, Karim approached me, his expression a mix of relief and concern. He had just returned from the Riverlands, and I was eager to hear his report.“Karim,” I said, stepping forward. “What did you find in the Riverlands?”Karim took a deep breath before speaking. “It was a small group of bandits,” he reported. “They seemed more like scouts than a full raiding party. We managed to drive them off without too much trouble.”I nodded, absorbing this information. “Did they give you any indication of a larger force nearby?”He shook his head. “No, they were disorganized and didn’t seem to have a clear objective. It’s possible they were just testing the waters, so to speak.”“That’s a relief,” I said, though my mind was still racing. “But we can’t let our guard down. If they were scouts, it means the main force could be planning something bigger.”Karim nodded in agreement. “I’ve left a few men behind to keep an eye on the area, just in
I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA 85: MY PROPOSAL
In the quiet confines of our family home, the weight of the past battles and looming threats hung heavy in the air. My mother, with her gentle demeanor and wise eyes, sat across from me at the worn kitchen table. She reached out, taking my hand in hers, and looked at me with a mixture of concern and love.“Ava,” she began softly, “I know the burdens you carry are immense. You’ve faced so much—loss, betrayal, battles—and you’ve emerged stronger every time. But there’s something I need to talk to you about.”I squeezed her hand, finding comfort in her touch. “What is it, Mother?”“It’s Alpha Jo,” she said, her voice tinged with a plea. “I see the way he looks at you, the regret in his eyes. And I see the pain you still hold onto because of what happened between you two.”I looked away, my gaze falling on the familiar surroundings of our home, the place where I had always found solace. “Mother, it’s not that simple. He banished me, he chose Maria’s lies over our bond. How can I just forg
I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA 86: SEND YOUR SCOUTS
Alpha Jo found me in my chambers as I was pacing back and forth trying to clear my mind. His presence was disturbing because I had wanted to be left alone, but I knew we had an unresolved tension between us. He approached cautiously, knowing our last conversation had left me shaken.“Ava,” he called softly, his voice laden with concern. “We need to talk.”I turned to face him, my expression guarded. “What is it, Jo? Hope you have not come to spoil my mood?” I asked him.He took a deep breath, his eyes reflecting the weight of his words. “It’s about Maria. I am not sure if she is alive, and I believe she has been taken. We need to find her.”I felt a surge of anger and disbelief. “Why would I want to look for someone who despises me? Why would I want to look for someone who has caused me so much pain? For all I know, she might have planned with the bandits and then lead me into an ambush looking for her. She’s caused enough trouble already.”He stepped closer, his tone imploring. “Ava,
I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA 87: MARIA IS BACK
Alpha Jo and I stood side by side, overseeing the efforts to rebuild our shattered town. The air was filled with the sounds of hammers, saws, and the determined voices of our people. It was a moment of quiet between the chaos, a brief respite from the overwhelming task ahead.Jo turned to me, his expression thoughtful. "Ava," he began, his voice low and tentative, "is now the right time to talk about our past? About... us?"I glanced at him, my heart tightening at the vulnerability in his eyes. "Jo, there’s so much going on right now. We have to focus on rebuilding, on keeping everyone safe."He nodded, but there was a persistent determination in his gaze. "I know, but this has been weighing on my mind. I’ve been thinking about everything, I have been thinking about you, about us. I still love you, Ava. I never stopped. And I want us to be as we were in the past."His words hung in the air, heavy with emotion. I felt a pang in my chest, memories of our past rushing back, I thought abo
