Leo.

I stepped into the apartment, coming in to find the place silent and the slight lump of white hair laying on the couch.

I tried hard to not smile at that. I tried keeping quiet, slowly removing my shoes to step toward her.

She groaned suddenly, and I knew it was too late. When she stretched, her squinted eyes looked toward me.

I had been caught.

A slow smile curled up her face. “I didn't see you there."

I smiled in turn. She probably didn't know how adorable she looked at this moment. Even whilst her silvery white hair was slightly puffed up - definitely due to her sleeping position - she looked ethereal.

“I didn't want to wake you up," I said, sitting down on the space she left behind as she sat up.

Almost like cloak work, the moment it was safer, she turned to lay her back against my chest. The movement might as well have gutted me. Her ease with me hurt my heart and even at times like this, I wondered if I deserved it.

Yet I still embraced it, pressing close to her.

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Emotions.

    Leo.Sierra's words when she called me that morning came to mind. “You know the full moon is nearing, right?”I stopped in my tracks, turning toward her. She looked back at me with a raised eyebrow.We were in a cafe in the city, when she went out after her Luna duties. It was a surprise to see her entirely in her element whilst in the midst of the other pack, but I was happy for her nonetheless.I nodded. “I know.”She looked at me as though she was waiting for me to say something more. When I didn't, she gave a sigh.“Are you going to ask Isabella to join you?”I froze in place, looking up at her.Amongst the six years I had partaken in the pack run often, attuning myself to my wolf form more often. It was one of the reasons I was now more at ease with it all.My sister's question had thrown me for a loop.“Don't be a coward and ask her before I do so myself!” Se raised her eyebrow before huffing to roll her eyes.I merely took a sip of the water on the table, looking away. Only a

    Leo.Slowly, she extricated herself from my arms and I let her. The cool air from the air conditioner hit my chest as she rose, making me suck in my breath.“I think our time’s up.” She sighed out before grunting as she stood up.I sat up properly, watching her go to the door and open it.The moment she did, Treasure's voice came in and I smiled. I adored hearing the chorus of “I missed you” and “I missed you too." I watched her kiss his cheek before she turned away, her attention was focused on the woman at the door.The moment he came inside and spotted me, the bright smile he gave might as well have made my world.“Daddy!" He called out, rushing toward me. I caught him just in time, hugging him tightly enough to not hurt. My face hurt, and I supposed I was also smiling as well.Although the wolf was present since birth, it usually tended to not manifest until the child was about ten to fifteen years of age. Treasure still had several more years to go before he could join us on a p

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Comforting each other.

    Isabella.My breath caught at the position we were in.He was mere centimeters away from mine, his nose brushing slightly. His heated breaths fanned around my face, the same way I was sure mine was. He was pressed up against me from the bottom as well, and I couldn't feel nothing.Heat rose to my cheeks, but I remained fixed on the stare of his blue eyes. Within me, my heart raced faster than I had ever imagined. I could hear it in my ears.Only recently, we had been pressed against each other comfortingly, my back against him. Yet, this felt different.I couldn't move, and perhaps I didn't want to.As he made to stand, something pressed up against me. What was this feeling? “Leo…" I breathed out.At that moment I wanted to kiss him, and…What? What next?Before anything else could happen, the door slowly opened. My eyes widened as I realized just who was coming in.Before I could say a word, Leo rolled over from me, hands slipping off my hair. He laid, front facing the ground as

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Finding answers.

    Isabella.I let out a slight sound as I brushed against the soft fabric. That was the most I realized that I wasn't alone.I turned to find him right there, his blue were soft yet dark, making my breath hitch. “Leo…”His face drew nearer, no. His entire frame drew nearer, meddling with mine. The feeling of flesh against flesh brought heat through me.I wanted this.Slowly, his hand traced along the side of my fingers. A movement which was supposed to be simple enough brought goosebumps to me. Even worse, they made me feel even warmer.I let my hand lay on his face,caressing it lightly. Without thinking, I leaned in to kiss him.My eyes sparked open right before I furiously sat up breathing heavily. I looked to my side to find that it was my other hand fixated on my upper arm, drawing right where it happened in my dreams. I immediately whipped my hand away, using both hands to card through my hair.What was that? I wondered, my breaths had lightened, yet my heart hadn't stopped poun

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Seeking for advice.

    Isabella.After waiting for a few seconds, Sierra's voice came through the phone.“Izzy? I'm here. What's up?" She asked.I sucked in my breath, trying to calm myself down before I said a word “Sierra, I need your help."She remained quiet all through, listening to me. I managed to state every single detail in spite of the heat that rolled up my cheeks as I spoke. I had to make sure that none of the people in the vicinity could hear me but I still felt mortified nonetheless. By the time I was done, I was sure that my cheeks were flaming and I would never live this down. Sierra, on the other side of the line, hadn't said a word throughout and the silence continued after the last words left my lips. I looked at the phone waiting for the longest time for any sound, but there was none.Suddenly, a sharp laugh came from the other side, making my eyes widen and my flush flare up again. Sierra laughed on the other side for what seemed to be a long time.I whispered into my phone, whining.

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Surprise visitation.

    Leo.I called Gino into my office.“Has there been any security breaches?” I asked, referring to the city. Gino shook his head. “None at all. The Red moon pack hasn't informed us of anything either.”I relaxed, pushing out my breath as I rested my chin lightly on my interwoven hands. “Then, all is well," I said, slightly relieved.Due to the Red Moon Pack's obscure and neutral nature and the lack of 'validity' my pack, many rogues and lone wolves stayed in the city, some had heard rumors mostly surrounding me. Back then, I went after them on my own, disregarding the other pack. They may have captured some other rogues, but then it was none of my business. Now however, following Sierra and Damian's ascension to Alpha and Luna and our agreement, we were now watching each other's backs. Any threat to the city was informed by both packs. There was still plenty to get used to regarding the matter. However, so far over the past few months, this has worked pleasantly.I was roused out of

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   So be it!

    Leo.I didn't waste any more time in going back after that. Following the security check, I gave a few instructions before handing over the rest. When I came out, Gino was still outside. It was as though he read my mind when he looked at me looking ready to leave. It was more likely that he knew me too well. I had never abandoned work, and there were very few reasons for me to do so. Sierra was safe wherever she was at the moment, so that narrowed it to one. He gave me an assured smile before exhoing my thought.“I'll take care of the rest." He said, jerking his chin forward. “Go be with your woman."‘My woman.’ That was most definitely new. But no matter how hard I tried, it didn't sound completely unpleasant.I tried not to think about it as I drove back to my pack. The sky was blooming orange, giving a hue to the house when I finally reached.To my expectations, I heard laughter shortly after I opened the door.I closed it quietly, slowly stepping into the living room.Isabella an

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   As safe as it could be.

    Leo.When I woke up, I knew I had made the right choice as I stretched, feeling every bit refreshed. The sun was already going down, so I knew that dinner was likely ready. After a warm bath, I changed into a pair of comfortable sweats before I exited my room.Stepping into the dining area. I met Isabella and Treasure there alone.“Sierra said that she'll text you later and Agathe retired to her house. So it's just the three of us.” She said.Seeing her so comfortable in the home I grew up in felt so different than when she was once here as a guest turned acquaintances to mutual friends. Now she was here as my… girlfriend? Mate? Mother of my child? All of the above? There was no way to place her in my life. And I liked it that way. She was just Isabella. My Isabella. And that was enough.I sat down eating whilst talking to my ever animated son. Together we had put him to bed right after, her watching silently while I read the book he demanded me to read until he fell asleep.Watch

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Epilogue.

    Isabella.Treasure played freely amongst other children. The happiness in his eyes made me smile from the window I watched him in.He had taken to them very well, free to reveal his claws at any time, compared to before.After what felt like minutes of watching, I settled back down onto the couch, filled with stacked books I was hoing to remove for the day.I settled into the dark couch where even before I left, it gave comfort. Now I needed that more than ever.It felt like before, yet everything was so different. Now Sierra came occasionally, no longer a resident of the pack yet still belonging to it. She had all the grace of a Luna. It was something I had known for a long time, yet pleased to see nonetheless - nevermind that I still beat her whenever it came to sparring.The biggest difference, however, was me.I had once come here as a guest, hiding myself away from the pack and not wanting to get attached. Now I was here as Leo's mate and the first and new Luna of the rogue pack.

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Let’s go home.

    Leo.I looked at Isabella who bore a stricken look. The disbelief in her was the same one I faced.This was the first time I had physically seen the person right in front of me, and as I looked at him, an open scar on his face with his hair in disarray and his eyes crazed, I knew what my answer would be.Turning to Isabella, I conveyed all I needed to, squeezing her hand lightly. She seemed to understand as she nodded. I let her go, walking toward the man who looked more pathetic as his hopeful eyes looked up at me.“I have no need to fight you, Darius, because there's nothing to fight with you about."I saw his expression morph into a frown and anger light up in his eyes in response, but I wasn't done.“Isabella is not a bargaining chip, nor an object to fight over or own. I doubt that you will understand that as you are now, but it's the truth. Scum like you deserve a terrible fate, and though I'm glad that Isabella is by my side now, I wished she didn't have to face someone like yo

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   The challenge.

    Isabella.A chill went through me at the news. Looking at the rest of them filled with shock and plenty of questions, there was nothing we could do but wonder.How did they figure it out already? Was this part of their plan from the start? I saw a mix of emotions, none of them positive on everyone's face. It was only a light squeeze that made me turn to him.Leo's startlingly blue eyes couldn't cool down my tension, but it eased it a bit.And for a moment, knowing everything else, I only let one thought reverberate through my mind.Everything will be alright.…..Throughout the next few days, we had mobilized everybody possible.They had announced to the pack and the council of elders everything that had taken place, never leaving a single detail out. The pack was in an uproar, yet in a discussion of our allies, they felt mixed emotions.I looked around at the people around me. People who had once judged me in favor of the person who was now the biggest threat to the pack.When I sp

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Darius and Lucy escaped.

    Isabella.Together we left for the Alpha's quarters, only to see my parents.Surprise filled me as they also stood up.“What are you two doing here?” My mother demanded, eyeing both of us.“Please," Isabella pleaded.I stayed as she explained every word that she heard in the forest, and I could see every single one of their faces turned grave.“Isabella, are you sure that that was everything you heard?"I wanted to nod, but held back. There was still one thing I was holding back.“When they spoke, Lucy said that he needed her. Not just because of the rogues, but…”I knew that this was sure to hurt, no matter how much I steeled myself to say it was Leo's light squeeze that made me shut my eyes and finally let go.“Because she knew the truth behind his father's death."A shattering sound.“Melissa!”I whipped my head in surprise as I saw that Darius's mother was suddenly laying on the floor unconscious. The implications of my words were clear to everyone.I could only keep still, watch

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Discovering the truth.

    Leo.The moment she had frozen, I already sensed something was wrong.Two people, whom from the look on her face, she recognized were speaking.Closing my eyes, I heightened my senses to hear what they were saying.The first voice was a rough one that undoubtedly belonged to a man whilst the other was a woman.“You said that it'll work, but they haven't made any moves since.” Said the male one.“I mobilized all these rogues and I promised them domination. Do you think that it was easy?”Rogues? The mention of them.“Or better yet, do you think calming them down was? After they'd lost two people to your damned pack, you should be lucky that they haven't turned on you."“Shut the hell up.” The male voice spat out.“You can't get rid of me. Not when I'm the only one who knows the real secret behind your father's death. Not while you need me to appease the rogues while you mess up and no nothing. Not while I look like your dear–” The woman spat out.“–Shut up!” The words were so loud I wa

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Our home.

    Isabella.The next morning was far from normal. The only way it could have been described was cold.Neither of my parents were speaking to me, not even as I prepared breakfast earlier in the morning as an appeasement. They avoided my gaze as much as they could, never speaking a word.It hurt, the silent waves of disappointment that ebbed out of them. I braced through it however.Even little Treasure had noticed it.“Where's daddy?” He whispered to me. I noticed that my parents had stopped eating, either hearing or rightly assuming Treasure words.I attempted to smile at him. “He's not here, but we can visit him if you'd like,” I spoke invitingly.Before Treasure could say a word, I heard my mother's voice for the first time that morning.“Treasure dear, why don't you follow us to the pack gardens? There are plenty of beautiful animals there.”I stiffened at her passive aggressive nature. Yet when I looked at Treasure's imploring eyes which silently asked me for what to do, I gave a sl

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Welcome to the pack.

    Leo.The pain Isabella bore on her face made me want to hold her, yet those doubts and fears I thought I had rid myself of stopped me short, leaving me helpless and hollow.The night was silent and cold. Peaceful. It was a complete contrast to the violence that had occurred in what should have been less than 20 minutes ago.The pain from the hands that choked me still ached every time I swallowed, yet I kept silent.I almost flinched when I felt the brush of a hand, only to relax as there was only one person who could do that. I let her wrap her hand around mine, sighing at the guilty pleasure of her touch.When I turned to look at her again, all the warmth I gained drained away.Her eyes glistened with tears even as she stared stonily at the distance. She was devastated. From her parents' reaction to the way it all came crashing down.I vaguely realized that she was trying to do that. Comfort me. In turn, I held her closer, hoping that she gained a bit of warmth as well.When Connor

    Isabella.My blood ran cold, yet I kept a smile as I turned to Treasure.“Treasure, I think it's time you went to bed," I said.He looked at me for a moment before nodding.“Okay, mommy. Goodnight.” He turned to Leo and oblivious to the tension in the air, told Leo. “Goodnight, daddy.” I heard the slight suck of breath from one of my parents, but I focused solely on my son, nudging him forward.“Go on then," I said, as he yawned before moving up the stairs.I watched him carefully until I was sure that he was out of sight and earshot. The sound of his guest room door shutting made me let out a breath of relief.I shouldn't have let my guard down.It happened instantly. One minute, we were all sitting on the table and in a flash, a person pinned Leo to the wall.“Dad!” I called out, panic filling me as I stood up, speeding across the room.My father was on his full feet, his hands wrapped around Leo's neck. Goddess! He was choking him!Leo remained still. Whether he was still in shock
