My Second Chance With The Alpha 10. Retaliation means a war
Marcus’ POV The principal’s office lay at the epicentre of the school’s administration department yet remained shielded from the chaos. A couple of couches lay outside his room and a glass teapoy was placed in the middle. Since it was after the official hours, I doubted that he was with any company. Taking my chance, I walked up to the black wooden door that lay as a passage to his chamber. A golden metal plate was firmly fixed into the wood, with the words ‘Sherman Fields’ written on it with black ink. I knocked on it twice, and instantly heard his voice. “Come in.” Twisting the door knob, I stepped into the room as I opened the door. Sherman looked up from his paper and gave me a grin. “Oh, Marcus, please come in.” Nodding, I closed the door behind me before I walked to his table, “You wanted to see me?” “Yes, but before that, how was your first day?” I shrugged, “It was alright. Nothing I hadn’t expected.” “I’m sure you’re impressed with our students. They are very skilled.”

Marcus’ POVLater that evening, I stepped out into the neighborhood to go for a quick run. Back home, I went for a hunt almost every other day either alone or with my pack. We made it a ritual to meet at least once every fortnight in the forest to go for a duel. It was all healthy yet purposeful as it was a means to understand, grasp and interpret each other’s strengths and weaknesses. This drill was an essential part of our training as it enables us to develop a stronger bond with our pack members and reorient our strategies.Ever since I moved here, I hadn’t been able to step into the wild to satiate my wolf's hunger. I lacked the proficiency when it came to the geographical boundaries of these areas and nor was I sure if it was even allowed to go for hunts in the forest here. Moreover, most of the people here would perceive me as their enemy for my arrival into this town isn’t public knowledge. However, I had to quickly find a solution to this as my wolf was already growing impatie

Kiara’s POV“Would you like to order anything else?”Marcus placed the empty wine glass on the table before he looked at me, “No, that will be all.”Just when I was about to ask him if he’d like me to bring the bill, he beat me to it, “When are you going to finish your shift?”His question made me frown. Why did he want to know? “Well, I was supposed to finish 40 minutes ago. I was about to leave when you asked for me.”He looked at me as though he had committed a crime, “Shit, you should’ve told me.”I shrugged, “It’s fine. I get paid for overtime.”“I’m so sorry for keeping you.” He said with regret, “You are free to go now.”“Are you sure? I don’t mind –““No, it’s alright. I’m almost done anyway.”I nodded, “Thank you. I’ll ask my friend to cover for me.”“Okay. See you.”I smiled at him before waving a quick good-bye. As soon as I got into the changing room, I heaved a huge sigh of relief. What was that? I never struggled to be around a man before but Marcus was just something el

“It’s him again,” Marcus said, as though he wasn’t surprised. At the sound of his voice, I got back to my senses and realized that I was still in his arms. I moved away from him at once and stood on my feet. “Sorry.” I said, embarrassed, being so lost in my thoughts that I had not realized I was forcing him to hold me like that. From the looks of it, he didn’t seem bothered at all.“Am I missing something?” He instead said, eyeing Asher’s car as it left a trail of dust behind.Understanding his insinuation, I shook my head, “Nothing of significance.”“He looked like he wanted to kill me.” He said, “It can’t just be because I defeated him.”“What are you implying?”“That he likes you.” Came his crude reply, which made me widen my eyes at once.I let out an incredulous laugh, “Trust me, he definitely doesn’t like me.”“Really?” he asked, unimpressed, “How are you so sure?”“Because I was his mate and he rejected me?” I snickered, “That’s how I’m so sure.”I hadn’t thought it was possib

The next morning, I found myself eagerly walking to school. It was perhaps the first time in years that I was looking forward to it, and the reason for it was my Professor. I felt a slight sting at the remainder, but I didn’t let it affect my mood. I rarely felt good about something, so I let myself relish it while I still could. My spirits were up all through the day, and when it was finally time for my combat class, nervousness began to creep in. As I walked into class, I noticed that Marcus had arrived earlier than usual. He was talking to a bunch of students, probably giving them tips as to how to train better. My eyebrows shot up in response. So it was going to be a one-on-one thing today. I smirked at the thought. A few moments later, Asher and Leslie walked in together, but I didn’t bother sparing them a glance. After the stunt Asher had pulled yesterday, I realized that he didn’t deserve my attention at all. After successfully humiliating me in front of our entire school, h
Last Updated : 2023-07-05My Second Chance With The Alpha 15. Addictive attention
For the remainder of the class, I tried to steer clear of Marcus, and thankfully, he hadn’t tried to talk to me either. He was so busy training others in the class that he hardly had time to come back to me. I was thankful for it, for I didn’t know what I would do had I been subjected to any more of his attention. To be frank, his attention was addictive. The more I received it, the more I wanted it. How was I to battle such attraction? I knew for a fact that he was completely off limits to me. He was my professor, for crying out loud. Not to mention, I don’t even know if he liked me back. Sure, he was extremely helpful and sweet to me all these days, but that could just have been his personality. His actions do not necessarily confirm anything about his feelings for me. Once the class was done, I quickly hurried to the girls locker room to change out of my training gear. I still had to return his jacket, but I was beginning to wonder if it could wait. After what happened in class t

I tried to pull my hand out of his grasp, but he refused to let me go. “Kiara,” He spoke in a low tone, “Please, don’t test me. Tell me, who did this to you?” Unable to look at his furious face, I looked at my feet in hesitance. I did not think it was safe to snitch on Asher to Marcus. The two of them barely got along. If I told Marcus, I was afraid he would do something about it. If not confront Asher directly, he will want to report this to the principal. Unlike other students here, I was studying on a scholarship. Due to which, essentially everything was free for me, starting from tuition to housing. At the end of the day, Asher was still the Alpha’s son. If I angered them, it would only be a matter of time before they cancel my scholarship. The thought motivated me further to keep my mouth shut. “Just let it go, Marcus.” I said, and tried to pull my hand away from him. Much to my surprise, he actually let it go. As I hadn’t expected him to give up so quickly, I looked at him

The next morning, I awoke earlier than usual, however, I struggled to get out of bed. I dreaded going to school. After everything that happened yesterday, I didn’t know what to expect today. I prayed that Marcus and Asher wouldn’t cross paths, but that was all I could do. Pray. I hated the uncertainty of the situation, and that I was completely powerless against it. However, one good thing was that we did not have combat class today. Although I was usually eager to meet Marcus, I wanted nothing but to escape his gaze today. Sighing, I got out of the bed when the alarm finally went off. After about an hour, I walked up the stairs of our school and headed to my chemistry. We had a test today, and due to the commotion yesterday, I didn’t have enough time or energy to spare for the test. However, we were being tested on the module that I was good with, so I didn’t worry too much about it. This has always been the case with me. Although I worked my ass off to study, I was also one of the

My Second Chance With The Alpha 200. Epilogue
It’s been four months since the war, and nothing remained the same. The aftermath of the battle was just as gloomy as the events leading up to it. Although the threat to our survival diminished significantly, it took us a long time to accept the disastrous consequences of the war. With so many lives and resources lost, we all had to work extra hard to restore the balance of our community. However, it was only after these four difficult months that we found a reason to celebrate once again. And the occasion was Bella and Lucien’s much awaited wedding. When Lucien took over his empire, Bella and him decided to move out of our house. Starting a new life of their own beyond the mountains, they remained away from us for longer than we’d hoped. Although Amanda visited her a couple of times, both Marcus and I haven’t been able to make time for the same. So naturally, when I met her earlier today as we arrived at their new house, I couldn’t control my tears, and neither could she. “I’v
My Second Chance With The Alpha 199. You did it
Considering who we were dealing with, we should’ve known better than to believe that the Lycan King would stick to the rules of the war. When the war began, both the parties established that none of the fighters would carry the war beyond the battle ground. However, after experiencing significant loss yesterday, the Lycan King had perhaps realized that they were heading for defeat. It drove him to do what he was doing right now, breaking rules and going to capture Bella. Thank God Lucien and I caught them before it was too late, for I don't know what would have happened if the Lycans had infiltrated the town. “Where are they?” I asked in impatience as I looked out of the window. As soon as Marcus was informed about what the Lycans were up to, he asked us to head straight home. Bella, Ethan and Natalie were already shifted home by the time we came, along with the baby and the other staff at the medical center. Our army was heading into the town now to fight the Lycans although few

“I heard you were hurt.” He clasped his eyes shut in regret, shoulders slumping down. When he opened them once again, his eyes flickered toward the two men who were awkwardly standing by his side.“Please leave us alone, Potter.” “Yes, Alpha.” The man with the blonde hair nodded and walked past me to exit the room. Once my eyes were on him again, I noticed that his disappointment was still persisting. “Come on,” I said, “You can’t be mad at me.” “Of course I’ll be mad at you Kiara, what were you thinking?” He said, “I’d particularly told you to not do anything stupid and you come all the way into the danger zone all alone?” Tears welled in my eyes at his strict tone. I understood why he was reacting like this but I hoped that he would have some empathy for what I was feeling. He couldn’t expect me to not do anything when I knew he was in danger. “I couldn’t help it.” I managed to say, “I was scared for you. And I knew that if I told anyone, they would never have let me come here

My hand instantly wrapped around her, reclining her onto a nearby stretcher. Thank God I’d asked for a midwife to stay on stand-by, I was suspecting this would happen. “Take her into the operating room right now!” I said as the nurse took over. “Kiara.” She clutched my hand, forcing me to come with her into the room, “I… I need Ethan.” My heart twisted in pain as I looked into her eyes. Conflicting emotions arose within me as I contemplated what to say to her, making me temporarily devoid of voice. Noticing my hesitation, she shook my hand once again.“Kiara?” “Yeah…” I said as I found the courage to answer her. There was no way I could tell her the truth in this condition. I would have to mask it with a good lie until she was in a position to hear the truth. “Natalie, I’m so sorry, dear. But Ethan is in the middle of a battle. I’ve got the news about half an hour ago, I can’t get him to you now.” “Oh, God.” She groaned, falling back onto the pillow, “I don’t think I can do this
My Second Chance With The Alpha 196. Trust
Although Marcus was giving me the most reassuring smile he could, I couldn’t help the trepidations in my heart. The war had arrived much sooner than I’d expected, making it even harder for me to let go of him. In fact, I didn’t think any number of days would have prepared me for this one, for no wife would want to bid adieu to her husband as he prepares himself to fight the most cruel monster known. Despite my attempts to have faith in Marcus’ abilities to kill the Lycan King, I couldn’t help the worry that traveled all the way to the pit of my stomach. It was merely days ago that we were happily relishing our honeymoon, and now, Marcus was heading to a war. I was feeling a lot of emotions right then, but fear dominated them all. “Kiara?” He said, placing his hand on my shoulder, “Oh, don’t look at me like that, darling.” Pursing my lips, I gave him a defeated look, “Alright,” I sighed, “I’m going to be so worried for you.” “I promised I’ll be careful.” “I don’t trust you.”
My Second Chance With The Alpha 195. Better than anyone
As luck would have it, Marcus and I arrived home right about the same time. Relief washed over his features as he saw me running towards him, opening his arms for me. “Thank God you’re alright.” He said as he pecked my forehead. “Marcus,” I said, breathless, “What the hell was that about?” “We got news that Mary’s Husband, Victor, is part of a rebellion.” He said, “He is a Lycan.” “What?” I asked, “H-how did he-“ “He mostly probably came as an Immigrant, and is looking to turn our people against us.” He said and looked towards our house. “We need to get out of here, Kiara. Our men are going to take care of it. I’ll deal with him later.” “Okay.” I nodded and let him lead me into the house. Within minutes, our bags were packed and loaded into the boot. Hoping into the car, Marcus drove away from there. “Does this mean Mary was also a Lycan?” “Most probably.” He said, “Her husband is leading the rebellion. Of course, she’s aware.” “I knew it.” I mumbled under my breath, “How co
My Second Chance With The Alpha 194. Get out of there
The next morning, Marcus got up earlier than usual.After having endured very little sleep the previous night, I’d expected him to sleep in through the morning. He didn’t inform me anything about our plans for today, so I was curious to find out what he was up to.As he stepped out of the bath, his eyes frowned against me. “You’re up early.”“I could say the same about you.”He shrugged, “Well, I have some work in the town. I’ll have to step out for a bit.”“Can I accompany you?” I asked, “I’ll be bored here.”“You?” He said, “What will you do there? Trust me, you&rsqu

Thankfully, the cook was gone by the time I returned back into the dining room.Having wrapped myself with a robe, I let the wet strands of my hair dry against its fabric. Marcus was swiping on his phone mindlessly when I walked in, but upon noticing my figure, he put it away.“Were you waiting for me?” I asked as I poured myself some orange juice.Nodding, he held out his own glass to me. After filling it to half, I put the juice container away.“Is everything okay back at home?” I asked as he opened the dish to serve some food into my plate.He looked at me. “Of course. Why do you ask?”&nbs

“How long is it going to take?” I asked as I splashed some water towards him.Marcus gave me an unimpressed look, staring down at his white shirt that was now filled with wet marks. I couldn’t help but giggle as he walked further away from the shore, to a point where the waves wouldn’t meet his feet. Shoving his free hand into the pocket, he said something into the phone.Rolling my eyes at him, I swam further into the water, enjoying the blissful morning in the ocean. I ducked my head under the water and tried to swim along, positioning myself along the force of the waves. As another sway of the wave pushed me from behind, I momentarily lost composure and flipped. Frantically moving my arms, I tried to stay afloat until my feet reached the sand.
