In Between The Alphas 63
“You haven’t eaten anything,” Logan noted from across the counter and I just shrugged.I had another nightmare again and honestly food is the last thing on my mind right now. I really want to tell Logan about them but I know he’s going to just blame it on stress but there is something real about those dreams.“Earth to Charlotte,” Logan said snapping his fingers in front of my face and I blinked up at him, “You should eat something.” “It’s alright,” I shrugged ignoring the frown growing on his face, “I’m not hungry.”“That’s bullshit,” he said, “You didn’t eat anything at all yesterday. What is going on?” “Nothing; I’m fine,” I lied, “Can we drop this? I thought we had somewhere to be.”“We’re not leaving here until you eat something,” he said and I narrowed my eyes at him, “You can look at me like that all you want but my decision stands.” “I can’t,” I said softly and he shrugged.“Then we’re not going,” was his simple reply, “I could really use a day off

Logan was going to drop me off at home before going goddess knows where with Greg and he had barely turned into the driveway when a thought popped into my head and I gasped out loud.“That is totally not a weird sound to make out of the blue,” Greg snorted and I slapped him on the arm, “What I’m just saying.” “Shut up,” I rolled my eyes, “I just remembered something.”“And what might that be?” “You know a witch,” I said and all eyes turned to me, “She might be willing to help.”“I’m sorry but what witch are we talking about?” “The one that helped me with my potion,” I said and his eyes widened.“Look as far as I know, she’s an herb and potions witch,” he said, “I don’t think this is her area of expertise.” “What’s the harm in trying?” I asked, “We just need to ask first.”“Listen sweetheart,” Greg began, “You don’t just go to witches and ask for help.” “Yeah you do,” I said, “You went to her for the potion.”“No,” he said with a small shake of

Greg was munching on one of the pastries with his left hand while keeping the other one on the steering wheel.“You’re supposed to use both hands while driving,” I muttered under my breath and he raised a brow at me through the mirror and deliberately took another bite. “Would you like to take over?”“If I die then my ghost is going to haunt you forever,” I said with a pout. “If you die then I’m dead as well so there’s no haunting for you.” He said and I rolled my eyes, “I’ve been driving for years Charlie calm down.”“How old are you anyways?” I asked and he scoffed. “I find it insulting that you don’t know how old I am.”“Are you going to tell me or not?” “Is this how we’re going to spend the entire ride?” Logan cut in, “With both of you bickering like children?”“Well I’m still a child,” I said with a shrug. “You’re nineteen,” he deadpanned, “You’re not a child.”“Yes she is,” Greg said with a small snicker, “Look how she’s sitting i

“I had forgotten how careless you could be when talking to witches,” Greg said after about twenty minutes of silence. “She agreed to help us,” I said, “What’s the big issue?”“How did she know your name?” Logan asked and Greg beat me to an answer. “Because little Miss. I like to talk to witches told her,” he said and I rolled my eyes.“I didn’t know that we weren’t supposed to tell her,” I said, “I was trying to be nice.” “Well now she’s way too into your head.” Greg complained and I rolled my eyes.“I have nothing to hide.” “It’s not just about you,” he yelled and Logan let out a growl that made me jump slightly.“Don’t yell at her,” he said in a dangerously low voice and Greg went silent, “Apologize.”The expression on Logan’s face is one I’ve seen only a handful of times and because of how nice he is I sometimes forget what he’s capable of. He isn’t the Alpha of a pack for no reason.“I’m sorry for yelling at you,” Greg said and all I could manage

“Possessed,” I squeaked out and she rolled her eyes. “Don’t turn into a broken record right now,” she said then turned to Logan, “Open the cell.”“He’s rabid.” He argued “He’s unconscious,” she corrected, “Open the cell so I can perform my spell.”He muttered some expletives under his breath before signaling for them to unlock the cell.“I need everyone out except the both of you.” She said and everyone scurried out; apparently scared of the tiny witch.She walked into the cell and knelt on the floor; apparently not caring about the piss and blood lying everywhere.She began to chant but almost immediately snatched her hand back as if she was burnt.“You were his best friend right?” she asked Logan and he nodded, “So get over here and place your hand on him.”Logan clenched his jaw at the order but followed her and did as she asked.“For this to work I’m going to have to browse through your memories,” she said and he nodded stiffly, “I need your name.”He told her his n

Logan came in about a second after she had finished speaking and her eyes snapped to his.“I am leaving now,” she said, “It was an honor to be here.” “Thank you,” he said and she nodded.“You might want to work on gathering allies,” she offered over her shoulder as she walked out. “That wasn’t weird at all,” I muttered and I heard Logan chuckle.“Let’s get you out of here,” Logan said as he offered me his hand, “You have blood and piss on your knees.”I made the mistake of looking and cringed, “I’m burning these.”“I’ll bring the lighter,” he added and I gave him a smile.********************************It has been two days since we got Jake back but he’s still unconscious. Logan relaxed the curfew till ten to give the people a sense of safety.I’m also back at the pack house albeit not permanently. I think I’ve scarred those children enough so I just hang around Logan’s office and help wherever I can. I’m better at math than him so he lets me do anything that has to d

Logan didn’t say a word until we got to the hospital.He didn’t speak while I took Amelia back to the day care and he didn’t speak through the car ride; he just held my hand in his.“Are you sure you don’t want to go in alone first?” I asked and he shook his head.I didn’t say anything else because I knew it wouldn’t help the situation. I just let the nurse lead us into the room where Jake was held.I took in his figure lying on the bed and couldn’t help but notice how starkly different he is from when I first met him.For starters his facial hair has grown out making him look more wild and rugged, he is a lot thinner and he just looks worn and tired. I noticed the silver cuffs holding him to the bed and held back a wince.“I would be upset about these,” Jake said with a nod at the cuffs, “But I think I understand,” his voice was so hoarse from lack of use but I cleared my throat. “Hi Jake,”“Charlie,” he began softly, “I am so sorry for everything that happened.”I took a ste

Jake was discharged within a week and almost immediately he went back to his beta duties although he hasn’t taken over completely. Diana seems to have forgiven him although Greg is still a bit reluctant to come around which explains why he is shooting daggers at Jake from the corner of his eye. “Are you sure we made the right choice by leaving them together?” I asked as I peeked through the kitchen door. “Relax, Logan is there,” she said, “He’ll be sure to play peace maker.” “He seems more likely to leave them to brawl it out,” I commented and she thought about it for a second before nodding. “I think you’re right.” “I think we should intervene,” “Relax Charlie,” she grabbed my arm, “If they start fighting then Logan will just kick them both out.” “Fine but I’m not cleaning anyone’s blood off the floor,” I mumbled. “The only person whose blood is going to spill is Jake,” she deadpanned. “I can’t believe you’re betting on who is going to

In Between The Alphas EPILOGUE
CHARLOTTE’S P.O.V Adamaris and the council were able to break the bond between me and Esmeralda before finally executing her and destroying the talisman. We held Samantha’s burial the next day. It felt wrong to hold it until after Esmeralda was dead. It was so difficult for me to stand next to her body and act like it wasn’t my fault she was dead. Logan assured me no one felt that way, but I felt that way. What made it a lot harder was having to explain to Amelia that her mum was going away. She wasn’t even two yet, she didn’t understand the concept of death, and she just stayed in my arms and kept on screaming the word ‘mummy’ over and over again. Logan tried to take her away from me but she refused to let anyone else hold her. Amelia’s things were moved into our house the day after the funeral. She was a frolicky baby with a terrible sleep schedule. I attributed that to the fact that she missed her mum. Considering each time she woke up, she would ask for her mother. A lot of pe

THIRD PERSON’S P.O.VCharlotte was mingling with the guests with a smile on her face. She had the part of being Luna down to a pat, she was sweet, respectful and paid attention to every little detail.Logan stayed behind her to give her space to talk to the people, but also close enough that he always had her in his sight. He was on edge and for good reason too; they hadn’t heard from the witch in a few days and that probably meant she was waiting for a good time to strike.A little girl walked up to Charlotte and softly tugged at the hem of her hoodie. Charlotte turned her attention to the girl with a smile on her face. She crouched down so she was at eye level with her.“Can I help you?” she asked and the girl nodded. “I was wondering how it feels to be pregnant.” Charlotte was taken aback by the question.“I don’t know; I’ll let you know when I am pregnant.”She started to rise but the girl held onto her arm with a grip that seemed too strong for a girl who looked no older

The next twenty four hours after Adamaris got rid of the brand were entirely uneventful. I guess that should have been my clue that it was the calm before the storm.The day actually started out like any normal day. I woke up with Logan bringing me breakfast in bed, then I lay back while he ran his fingers in circles on my baby bump. I looked up at him and he gave me a small smile but his fingers never slowed.“Are we going to stay here all day?” I asked and he raised a brow. “Shouldn’t you be happy that you have a day off from all the drama?”“I am happy,” I admitted, “I was just curious as to why we haven’t moved yet.” “We don’t have anywhere to go for now,” he explained, “Do you remember the changes you approved for the school music department?” I nodded, “Well they’ve been implemented and today is the grand unveiling.”“I totally forgot about that.” “I told them to go ahead with it while you were,” he trailed off, “While you were gone.”He seemed to close off

CHARLOTTE’S P.O.VWe all sat in silence while Greg sketched. Logan made tea for me while we waited. Adamaris muttered something about how chivalry is dead since Logan didn’t make one for her too. This led Logan to mutter about how witches should get their own mates to do things for them.They kept on trading back and forth quips between themselves until Greg muttered something about how he was close to stabbing his ears with his pencil. I giggled and they both shot me looks as if I had betrayed them.A little over half an hour later, Greg was done with the sketch and when I saw it, I was taken aback by how life like it looked. He got every single feature of her perfectly, from the slight crookedness of her nose to the fullness of her lips and even down to the meanness of her smirk.After staring at it for a while, I passed it on to Adamaris. She took one look at it and cursed.“Do you know her?” I asked and she nodded. “She used to be in my coven,” she said slowly as she fold

CHARLOTTE’S P.O.VI woke up to Adamaris sitting on a chair cross legged and looking bored out of her mind. She had cleared up the circle of salt and moved Kaden and Aubrey to a more comfortable lying position.Logan and Evan were still knocked out on the floor in the same position and I stifled a smile. Leave it to Adamaris to let the men suffer. Aubrey and Kaden began to stir; Kaden stirred first and as if she heard him, Aubrey moved too.Aubrey sat up first and cradled her head in her hands for a few seconds. It wasn’t until she heard Kaden’s whimper that her head snapped up and she rushed to him.He buried his face into her chest while she whispered a few words in his ears, too low for even my werewolf hearing to pick up on. Kaden just nodded and gave his mum a smile.Kaden looked up and saw me and he gave me a small smile. “Hey Charlie, I’m sorry I fell asleep.” I felt my lips curl up at the sides. He turned to Adamaris and gave her a confused look, “Hello, who are you?”“That’s n

CHARLOTTE’S P.O.VIt was Logan who snapped out of his reverie and realized that we still needed to find Adamaris a place to sleep. Thankfully, she has her house (I still don’t understand what the hell she means by that). She said that all she needs is a large expanse of land, preferably in the woods.Logan wanted me to stay home but I’m not going to let him go alone, especially since everyone is in this mess because of me. Reluctantly, he handed me one of his big, warm hoodies and I pulled it over my head.I sat in front with Logan while Adamaris and Celeste sat at the back. The drive was tense and quiet; Logan had one hand on my leg to keep me grounded because my thoughts were going haywire.Adamaris was lost in thought, her eyes were kept fixed on the window. Celeste was staring at me, not in a creepy way, but in a way that kept me alert. Occasionally, her eyes would move from my face to Logan’s hand on my thigh and back.I caught her eye through the mirror and she gave me a smile t

Logan and I decided to make dinner together. It’s been a while since I baked anything and I was itching to get into the kitchen.It was extremely fun, especially because he kept sticking his finger into the batter for the brownies and he would always pull away before I can whack him with the spatula.When we were done, we went to our room and he sat up against the headboard while I leaned against his chest as he fed me brownies.“Were you able to get in touch with Aubrey?” I asked and he nodded. “I spoke to Evan and they’ll be here tomorrow with their son.”“He agreed to that,” I was shocked that he did, if anything, I expected Evan to put up a fight about letting their son into anther territory. “He didn’t want to at first, believe me.” he scoffed, “But then he realized that it was for his benefit, not mine. He finally agreed on the condition that he comes with guards.”“He’s a bit over protective; we would never hurt him or his son.” “I think he’s the right amount

I sat up in alarm, “What do you mean she’s here?”“She got into my head,” his face was a calm mask but I could see the annoyance swirling in his eyes from being interrupted, “She wanted to give us time to be presentable; something about not wanting to see another wolf naked.” “For good reason too,” Adamaris strutted into the room, “I’ve been scarred enough for one lifetime.”She was wearing a black long sleeved bodysuit with skinny jeans and a huge brown jacket over it. She paired it with black high heeled boots. Her lips were painted a dark red color and her eyes were hidden behind dark shades.When she took them off, I could see deep bags under her eyes.“You don’t look good,” I began, “Is everything okay?” “That’s what happens when you’re bonded to someone who can’t seem to stay out of trouble.” Her tone was cold and sharp. “I was booted out of your head during a game with my daughter this morning; what was that about?”“I don’t know,” I looked to Logan for support, and

There was a sharp pounding in my skull and a soft hand caressing my curls in steady strokes. I let out a small groan as I forced my eyes open.Logan was leaning over me with a soft expression on his face. His hand in my hair stilled as I stared at him. His expression alternated between anger, fierce protectiveness and worry.I took in my surroundings and realized I was in our room- well, what used to be our room anyways. The chairs were turned over and I can see glass shards at the door of the bathroom. Wood splinters were sticking out of the door and the curtains had been ripped off and somehow replaced.Logan had the decency to look a little sheepish, “I’ll fix the room; I promise.”“It’s okay,” I murmured with a wonky smile but he didn’t return it, “Hey, what’s wrong?”I tried to sit up but he stopped me, “Don’t; stay down.”“I’m fine, Logan.” I told him as I sat up. His face showed that he didn’t agree with me. “What happened?” “You blacked out,” he muttered, “I heard you and
