LEXI.

“Do you need help?” Scott’s voice sent shivers down my spine, and I felt my knees buckle from fear.

I shouldn’t have relaxed. I should have checked if he was already free from where he was.

I slowly spun my body around, ready to act bravely, when his hand gripped my jaw, and the next thing I knew, I was dragged to the other side of the corridor, and my back slammed against the wall. Pain rippled through my whole body as tears formed in my eyes.

I shouldn’t cry. I shouldn’t cry.

He liked it when I did.

“Did you think you could get away from me, little mouse? Didn’t I tell you I would come back for you?”

He pressed his body against mine, and my hold on the unfolded boxes tightened. It was my only barrier against his body.

“Let me go…” I forced myself to speak, but my jaw was hurting. I didn’t feel this pain for a long time, and I forgot how painful his grips were.

“I heard you have a baby… What happened to ‘I’m infertile?’ Huh? You fucking liar! Where is he?”

    AUSTIN. “He’s my ex,” Lexi told me. “The asshole ex you were telling me?” She nodded. “I thought he was just suffocating you by being possessive. Has he hurt you like that before?” She nodded. “Why the fuck didn’t you tell me?” “Why would I tell you? We were just fuck buddies, remember?” She said in a loud voice before she struggled away from my arms. I loosened my arms around her, and she moved away, heading for the couch. “I finally broke up with him after two years and filed a restraining order for him. But before I could file a case against him, someone reported him for attempted rape. He was convicted and was given seven years, so I thought I would be able to live free of him for seven years. If I knew he was back, I would not have stayed here.” She sat down and wiped her tears. “Why didn’t you tell us? Or Mom or Dad? You know they will not abandon you!” I followed her and crouched in front of her. “I’m not your family! Remember when you said that? You said I kept me

    AUSTIN. As soon as we arrived at my grandparents’ home, I explained to them what had happened without giving too many details about Lexi’s past. I just notified them that her psychotic ex-boyfriend came back, and it seemed he wanted to hurt Lexi and David. Grandma was obviously upset and heartbroken, as it did bring back memories of Mom’s horrible experience when I was still in her womb. But I was glad that when I told them my plan of taking Lexi and David home with me, they supported it right away. Grandpa let me borrow one of their cars, and they volunteered to convoy with us up to the territory. I didn’t want to bother them, but they insisted, as they also wanted to visit the family. So, this spontaneous trip turned out to be a family affair. Lexi couldn’t say anything. She was probably overwhelmed by how my grandparents were reacting and extending help. Especially when Grandma said she would take care of her things at the apartment. Grandma had a cleaning business, so it

    AUSTIN. I leaned my forearms on the balcony railings outside my training building office as I watched Lexi warm up to begin her first training session with Harlene. I would have wanted to personally train her, but she refused. She probably thought I would be too hard on her. But later on, I also realized that it would be best for another warrior to handle her instead of me. Because I was sure I would not be able to get my hands off her. I licked my lips before a sly grin cracked on my face when I saw her bent down, hiking her ass up in my direction as she tried to reach her toes. ‘Tell me you did that on purpose.’ I mindlinked her after checking the grounds below me, and I confirmed no one was there, as well as the grounds between us. I was the only one in direct parallel to her ass. ‘Maybe, maybe not.’ She answered confidently. ‘Am I stretching right?’ I straightened up my posture and crossed my arms across my chest. ‘Hmmm. You can do better. Open those legs wider and a littl

    LEXI.“Are you not joining Austin for the full moon run?” Luna Amara asked as she sat on the couch in front of me. We just finished an early dinner as Austin, together with the Alpha and Beta, would be handling pups shifting tonight. I was at the pups’ nursery with the Luna, letting our sons play a bit before they slept.“No… He asked if I wanted to come, but I don’t think I am needed there.”“As the future Gamma Female, I suggest you go there.” She said.“I agree.” Catherine butted in. I didn’t know she had entered the room. “I’m not Austin’s female.” I smiled at them, and as much as I wanted not to feel embarrassed by these words, I couldn’t stop my cheeks from burning. They didn’t say anything, but they exchanged gazes with each other. “What?” I softly chuckled. “Not fair. Share it with me.”“Amara already told Austin she likes you as her Gamma Female…” Catherine said without hesitation this time.“Don’t take it the wrong way. Of course, Austin gets to choose who he wants, not

    LEXI. “Now, stop being bossy and be a good girl. Let me boss you around tonight.” His breath fanned against my skin, making me swallow hard. I discreetly clamped my legs together. His words sent shivers down my spine and my core, and I was sure something leaked in between my thighs. Austin needed to stop doing this. I just found myself shutting my mouth and nodding my head. “Good girl.” He kissed my cheek before brushing the spot with his thumb. “I will just check on them. You can come with me.” I shook my head. “I’m fine here.” He nodded, and I watched as he walked toward where the Alpha and the Beta were standing with Marshall. I sank myself into the shadowed area of the clearing as I watched young male pups begin screeching in pain. There were seven pups shifting — two females and five males. It was a rare occurrence to have this many, as shifting happens on the last full moon before a shifter turns eighteen. Not many pups were born in the same month, so Austin was excited

    LEXI. Watching them shift made me long for my own wolf, something I had not felt in a long time. Meeting Austin again and having a baby with him changed my perspective on life. I thought I was already okay without a wolf, probably because in human territory, no one needed one. But then I wanted to be here, and I didn’t want people to think that I was a liability to Austin. I knew our relationship was not the typical one, and I knew one day, when his mate arrived, I would have to go. I would be preparing myself for that, but until then, I wanted to be deemed worthy to stand beside him. I may not be the official Gamma Female of this pack, but Austin was someone handling the security of this territory, so I had to at least be someone of that caliber, even if just by association and not because we were mated. But without a wolf, I was just as clumsy and unreliable as any human in the middle of a raging storm. “That was a deep sigh you let out.” Austin chuckled. His arms were sti

  • LET THE GAMMA FALL FOR ME   Chapter 38

    AUSTIN. We rounded the perimeters we usually run to for newly shifted pups before making our way back to the clearing where we started. We typically have longer routes, but if we were with she-wolves, we had to use the shorter ones as they tend to get tired easily and would shift back involuntarily into their human forms unless they’d been training themselves for stronger stamina. Although we had female warriors in our pack, we never made it compulsory for females to attend warrior training as we would for males when they turned fifteen. As old-school as it may seem, although we knew females were capable of being as strong warriors as males, we still wanted to be the ones to protect them. But of course, we present them with the opportunity to be trained if they want to, once they turn seventeen. But so far, the two pups with us tonight haven’t trained at all, except for the last few weeks when they had to attend training to prepare for their shift tonight. ‘Where are we headin

    LEXI.“I can’t promise you a perfect life, but whatever life brings, I will be here. We can grow stronger and learn together. We can be lazy and stupid together.”Austin’s words were drowning me. I couldn’t even categorize if I was dreaming or if this was reality. But either way, I didn’t want this moment to end.“Is this a prank?” I chuckled softly, but I was still crying. He shook his head, and his eyes softened as his thumbs wiped my tears. “I’m done playing games, Lexi. I want to take care of you and David. So please let me…”“I don’t know what to say.”“Say yes that you will take me as your chosen. Say yes, that you will officially be my female, the Gamma Female of this pack. My partner in the family that we will build together. Say yes to you and me.”“You are promising a big thing…”“I know, but this is what I want. Having you here with me, in my arms, in my life is just perfect, Lexi. I’m not sure anymore if I can go a day without you.”My lips quivered, but I bit them to sto

    ALPHA JACE.We let our wolves run around the territory, rounding the whole area, border to border. Zero should have been tired, but for some reason, he was not. Black and Atlas also did not show any signs.Maybe it was the adrenaline or the fact that our wolves knew that this would be the last moment we would rule this place, as tomorrow, we would pass on to our sons the responsibility of taking care of this territory.We had a good run. Most of the shifters out tonight who saw us asked permission to join us, and I couldn’t be more proud to share this run with them. The longer we ran, the more wolves ran with us. We all shared stories along the way. Our people recounted tales of our assistance and how we touched their lives.It was a bittersweet moment, but nevertheless, it made me proud. What more could an Alpha ask for before he retired? Having his people personally thank him for his service was an honor I didn’t know I needed. But I basked in it and let it warm my whole soul.

    GAMMA AUSTIN.I sat at the boulder on the highest point of the forest on this side of the territory, letting my eyes look at the beauty of the land that thrived under our reign.Tomorrow night, my son David will finally claim the fate that was rightfully his. He would step up as the new Gamma of the Black Shadow Pack, alongside Colton as the Alpha and Enzo as his Beta.This was a bittersweet moment. I was proud of my son, but I couldn’t help the sadness that I would be letting go of the rank I’d spent my whole life perfecting. No, I had no regrets. And no, I had no plans of prolonging my service. I was just being me — being emotional. I almost lost this rank because of one mistake. I almost lost it for David and for the generations after him, but I was glad that I was given a chance to do better. A chance I surely didn’t take for granted. I spent my whole service proving that Alpha Jace didn’t make a mistake in still putting his full trust in me even after that grave mistake. I s

    LEXI.I held on to the kitchen counter as I listened to the family mindlink. I wanted to say many things, but my words failed me. Instead, I cried, letting out all the emotions that had shattered my heart for many months, ever since David didn’t shift on time. I felt the burden lift off my chest.All these years, I thought Austin and I did well raising our pups. Each of them had a different personality that they inherited from me and him. But all of them were disciplined, and they grew up with so much love that they knew how to give it out as well. I had everything I ever wanted. I shouldn’t be complaining.But then David didn’t shift. And I wanted to question why. I wanted to be upset because he didn’t deserve it, but I couldn’t. Because I was given a good life. I was given a good family and given a good pack. I felt questioning the Goddess about his wolf might be too much. So when he told everyone he had shifted, I didn’t know where to channel my gratitude. I kept crying on my ow

    DAVID.I had been hit with a headache in the last hour, so I told Dad I was bailing out earlier than I should. After I took a shower, I said goodbye to the people in the locker room and headed out of the building. The sun was already setting, but there were still many people in the quadrangle. Dad was also there as he debriefed the warriors that would be sent off to the next Gamma Camp two days from now. Alexis was supposed to join them, but since he declined the post, only the warriors would be sent off this time. I walked away from the area without making any noise. For some reason, I didn’t feel good today. I barely get sick. Well, shifters barely get sick, so it was strange that I was having a headache. I doubted if it had something to do with the many sleepless nights recently, but then these were not the first nights I didn’t sleep at all.I was probably hungry as I missed lunch. I also exerted too much effort in training and sparring today, so it could be the reason my calv

    LEXI.It was only six in the morning, but I had been awake for the last hour. Luna Amara, Catherine, and I went out early and threaded the forest to go to the spot where the Luna would always leave mangoes to the god of the wolves, Eros. After our pups decided that they would not break the bond between them and would still want David to become the next Gamma, I had been crying nonstop, but I tried to do it in the privacy of our room. I felt responsible. My actions almost twenty years ago resulted in my son’s pain. If I hadn’t been compulsive and too trusting, maybe I would not have let Randall get too close to me then. I know there should be no reason for regret because Randall turned out to be a wonderful person, but a part of me was dying every time I looked at my son.David, despite everything that had been going on lately, still exhibited the values Austin and I had taught him and his siblings over the years. And it made me so proud of him. He didn’t deserve this fate, but I neve

According to the plan, after Enzo shifted, we should be preparing to take over the pack.But without a wolf, David would not be deemed capable as my Gamma.

But no matter where I looked or what I thought of, nothing could change reality. I was still wolf-less. I was already nineteen. For a year, I had been waiting for my wolf.Enzo shifted last night. He was the youngest, and the plan was that as soon as he shifted, Colton, he, and I would begin to prepare for our ranked ceremonies. Colton was ready to be the next Alpha, and so was Enzo as his Beta. I was ready, too. I was ready to take over the Gamma position from my father, but without a wolf, it was impossible to take over. I closed my eyes as I recalled the conversation we had with Dad, Alpha Jace, and Beta Tyler. They would stay in position a bit longer, waiting for my wolf to come out. But they had already decided tha

    LEXI.I was standing in the middle of the quadrangle, watching as Austin went around the area to check on his men and let them know he was about to leave for the day. I was craving grilled food, so we would drive to a grill place near the academy, and I was just waiting for him to finish what he needed to do first. “Lexi…” A sweet voice rang in my ears, and a smile immediately tugged at my mouth. I was sure she and Randall had received the mail that Marshall personally dropped at their home, as they lived near the training building. I turned around, holding my big stomach, and came face-to-face with the very pregnant Marcia. Ours was our honeymoon baby made in Orleans, while theirs was weeks older than ours, conceived on the night of their marking. “Hey there, beautiful,” I greeted her, and my eyes shifted to Randall, who bowed his head toward me in respect before he moved along and went to the group of warriors that were resting in the corner. “Back at you, sexy mama!” She giggle
