Not My Alpha Chapter 28
Dawson’s POV“You’d really challenge me for Alpha? Son, you aren’t ready for that, think about the pack.” My father says.“Begging will get you no where. Accept the challenge, I already have to support of the warriors, don’t make this worse.” “How dare you threaten me. No wonder your fated mate left you. I accept your challenge.” He declares. I try to hide my smile. “Excellent. We’ll do it now, outside.” I can tell my father is surprised by how quickly I want to do this. An Alpha challenge isn’t some small sparring match, it’s to the death. We’ve just agreed to one of us killing the other, and I’m fine with that. I get out from behind my desk and walk past my father.“Be outside in thirty minutes.” I walk down the hallway and outside. Harrison follows me. “Dawson are you sure about this?” He asks.“Not like I can take it back now.” He’s kept his distance from me since Keira left. I don’t blame him. I know he doesn’t approve of kidnapping Marcus an

Beta Harth’s POVI’m with the scout team to find out what happened to Mason and Lily. “Sir, should we go up to their gate or is this a recon mission?” “Let’s announce ourselves. We don’t want to provoke them even more.” I hope this goes well, starting a war is not in anyone’s best interests. We walk up to their gate to announce ourselves. We are greeted by two warriors.“Stop and identify yourselves.” One of the warriors says.“I am Beta Harth from Elk Forest Pack. We have come to see Alpha Julian.” The guards look at each other in confusion. “Alpha Julian is dead.” The other guard says. I’m completely thrown off by what he’s saying.“What? How?” I ask.“He was challenged for the Alpha seat and lost to his son Dawson.” Dawson is now the new Alpha, and he took it through a challenge. Which means Julian wouldn’t hand the position over to him so, he took it by force. Something bad is definitely going on here. “What about my daughter Keira?”
Not My Alpha Chapter 30
Keira’s POVPale Moon Pack watched Dawson kill his father and take over as Alpha. What is going on in that pack.“What about what you told Keira about her friends. Is that true?” Theo asks.“Of course it’s true.”“Dawson kidnapped the future Alpha of Elk Forest Pack. Has he completely lost his mind?” I ask.“Wait, your friend is the future Alpha?” Theo asks.“Yeah, Mason and I grew up together. He was the Alpha’s son, I was the Beta’s daughter… and we were the same age.” I explain.“They came right to the pack looking for you. They over heard Alpha Dawson talking about you, so they couldn’t just let them go. So we decided to use it as a way to get you to come back. We wouldn’t have to bring you back ourselves. We’d just drop the news on you and you’d come running back. That’s what Alpha told us to do.” He’s right. As soon as I heard what he said I wanted to go rescue them. “Have you reported finding her?” Theo asks.“No, but if we don’t che

Keira’s POVThat night it was hard for me to sleep. I didn’t feel at ease and I kept thinking about everything that’s happen today. I know everything is changing and I feel like I’m the cause. If I never became Dawson’s mate, his father would still be alive. Maybe I’m not a good mate? I’ve never been a mate before, heck I’ve never been in a relationship before. There was this assumption that I’d end up with Mason. I get up from bed frustrated and tired. I get dressed and head out of my apartment. The cool night air feels good and the streets are quiet. I just walk down the sidewalk thinking about Shepard. I know I should be thinking about my family, and the war brewing between Pale Moon pack and Elk Forest. But For some reason Shepard’s face pops into my mind. The look in his face when he learned the truth about me. He looked so hurt. I’ve never felt so distant from him since meeting him. His face hurt me. I feel bad I lied to him. I wish we could have met under different

Keira’s POVThe next morning Alpha Theo asks for me to come to his office. I walk up to the pack house to meet him. But first I’m met by Shepard. “Good morning.” Shepard says.“Morning.”“Are you headed to see Theo?” He asks.“Yeah.”“Great, I’ll join you.” We walk inside and head towards the Alpha’s office. Shepard walks in with out even knocking. “Morning Theo.” Shepard says.“I see we aren’t knocking today.” Theo says. Shepard laughs and takes a seat in front of Theo’s desk.“Well you seem to be in a better mood.” Theo notices. “Would you rather I be a grump all the time like you?” Shepard asks.“I’ll ignore that. Good morning Keira.” Theo turns to me.“Good morning Alpha.” I say.“Have a seat I think we need to finalize our plans.” Theo says. I take a seat next to Shepard.“I’m afraid we’re going to have to get involved with what’s going on.” “How so?” Shepard asks.“I don’t want to put your pack in danger.” I say. Theo raises his hand.“Not the pack, just us. I think it woul

Theo’s POVShepard and Keira leave the office to get ready for their trip to Elk Forest. I call Grace for into my office for one last meeting before I leave. There is a knock at the door.“Come in.” I say. Grace enters the office and closes the door. Every time I see Grace I feel a sense of ease. After my mother died, it felt like Grace tried to fill the void. I wasn’t the easiest child. I know I don’t express myself or my feelings very well. I know I relied on my knowledge and my status to get me through my life. But recently I’ve found myself wanting something different, something more.“You wanted to see me.” Grace says.“Yes, I’m about to head out and I wanted to know if you had any questions for me.”“I have one, but is not about filling in for you.” She says.“Go on.”“Why are you doing this?” I’m taken a back by her question. “Should I not help Keira and the two largest packs keep the peace?” I ask. I know I’m avoiding the question. I st

Dawson’s POV“Have we heard from Shadow Pack yet?” I ask Harrison.“Nothing yet.” He says. I scream a cry of rage and knock everything off my desk.“What are these guys even doing? They are worthless. They can’t find one girl?! ONE girl?!” I say.“Sir, we should talk about Elk Forest. We have been given word their army will be approaching soon. It looks as though war is inevitable.” Harrison says. I never thought they’d actually come here, but I guess taking their future Alpha is a problem.“Have our warriors battle ready. I’m not backing down. If Elk Forest wants to be wiped out in the process, so be it.” Harrison looks unsure, but he holds his tongue.“Yes sir.” He turns and leaves. I won’t lose. I’m the Alpha now. Beta Harth’s POV“Our warriors are almost to the border.” Gamma tells me.“Good. We’ll gather just outside the edge.” “So you think he’ll back down?” He asks. Suddenly the Alpha walks in.“Harth what is the status of o

Keira’s POVShepherd and I drive to my pack lands. It feels like forever since I’ve been home. I wonder how everyone has been. I think I’m getting a bit nervous. “Are you okay?” Shepard asks me.“Yeah, I’m a bit nervous I guess. It’s been a while since I’ve been home. Honestly, I feel like someone returning home after losing a battle. I know I have to tell everyone what’s been going on. I just don’t want them to look at me like I’m pitiful or weak. I was always one of the better fighters in my pack. But when I was with Dawson, the idea of hurting him and fighting back never even crossed my mind. It felt like he had such control over me. And the thought of leaving him, meant I’d be leaving the people of his pack too. I really grew to love and care about all of them. I constantly fought with my wolf over it.” I tell him.“Thats probably a common feeling for fated mates. It’s not a feeling everyone would understand. And I don’t think you’re weak. I think you’re pr

Theo’s POVI’m in a tent meeting with my allied Alpha’s when Grace steps in. “Alpha Theo,” she nods to me then to the other Alphas, showing her respect for our positions. “Forget the formalities Grace. It’s not necessary.” I say. “What’s the news.” “Sir, Pale Moon is awake, our spies say it’s just a matter of waiting for their Alpha to give them the word.” Pale Moon Pack arrived a few miles outside of our borders late last night, before stopping to make camp and rest. A few of my men wanted to attack then, to have the element of surprise on our side, but I refused. There were still some of our women and children who hadn’t evacuated yet, I didn’t want to risk any lives unnecessarily. Our strategy in this battle is mostly defensive. “Get the warriors lined up and ready, I want my men on the left and right sides, intermixed with the allied forces. We’re going to funnel them forward, and hope that our endurance will out last theirs.“Dawson’s POV“Alpha, we should be coming up on t

Keira’s POVWe arrive outside of Pale Moon pack’s territory, and I feel a mix of emotions. This is my first time returning to the pack that I thought was going to be my home for the rest of my life. The last time I was here I had just stabbed Dawson and ran away ready to spend the rest of my life in hiding, as an omega. Now I’m back, and I’m going to liberate this pack and everyone in it from that piece of shit I used to call ‘mate’.“Have we received any word on the Pale Moon warriors returning?” I ask Shepard.“No, no one has said anything.” I can tell he’s anxious about his pack. Cedar Creek is facing a large army without their beta, if Dawson attacks it’s going to really do some damage to their men. I reach out and grab his hand.“I’m sure they’ll be alright. Theo has support, and you said it yourself He knows how to strategize.” I say, squeezing his hand for comfort.“Keira, it looks like we’ll have to seize Pale Moon.” Fafnir says. He’s right. We haven’t heard back from Dawson

Keira’s POVShepard and I make our way back into the pack house for the party. Thankfully no one really notices us come in, except for my mother who makes eyes at me from across the room. Her look tells me that she wants to know if I’ve cooled off since my little fit. I respond with only my face, saying that yes, I’m fine.My mother and I have always been able to communicate with one another without using words. It’s something special between us that I’ve always treasured. I follow behind Shepard as we make our way over to the refreshments. Shepard get us both a glass of champagne. I take a big swig as he and I mingle around. No one at the party asks about Shepard and I. Which is good because I wouldn’t even know how to answer them. I’m not entirely sure what to do about this whole Shepard situation. It’s too early for us to make anything official by going public, but I’m definitely not going to hide it either. Shepard deserves better than that. I finish my champagne and grab myself

Keira’s POVMason is standing there staring at us.“Mason-“ I start, but Mason cuts me off.“It looks like I am interrupting you guys, so I’m going to head back first.” Mason turns and hurries back to the pack house. “Mason.” I say again, but this time he ignores me.“So is that a bad thing?” Shepard asks.“Mason always had a crush on me. But it’s never been anything more than that. Ugh, like I didn’t have enough to think about.” Of course this has to happen now.“We should head back.” Shepard says. He starts walking back but I don’t want to follow him. When he realizes I’m standing still he turns to me. “I really don’t want to go back in there.” I say, whining. Shepard laughs. “You’re going to have to face it at some point, you may as well get it over with.” He says. I sigh. “Do you think my father’s right? I mean, now that I’ve calmed down, I can see how it could be perceived that I ran away from my fated mate to be with you.” I say. Of course it’s not true, but not everyone k

Keira’s POVI wake up the next morning to an unfamiliar room. I sit up quickly, panicked, but quickly calm when I realize that I’m in Shepard’s cabin. I smile as I recall the events of last night. Shepard and I together.. the prospect of our future happiness brightens my smile to a laugh. Then I yawn and stretch, placing my feet on the cold wooden floor. I gaze around the creaky old cabin, when I realize for the first time that I’m alone. “Shepard?” I call his name, although I already know I’ll receive no response. This cabin is only one room, and I’m the only one in it. I wonder where he could’ve gone? I get up and see my clothes all neatly folded in a stack on the dining table. I chuckle again at this kind gesture from Shepard, and I take it as a sign that he just wanted to let me sleep in. I get dressed and make my way over to the pack house for breakfast. I walk into the cafeteria, and scan the room for Shepard, but I still don’t see him anywhere. “Good morning Keira.” I look o

Keira’s POV“I can’t believe he did all that to you.” Mason says to me. I just finished explaining to him and Lily what my life was really like with Dawson. “We can’t let that maniac continue to run rampant.” Lily says.“I agree. There has to be something we can do to stop him.” My father says. There’s a knock on the door of the office. Both my mother, father, and Mason all say come in at the same time. They share a few looks, technically this is my mother’s office but Mason is the acting alpha which is higher rank. A messenger walks in and bows. “What is it?” Alpha Mason asks. “A member of the werewolf council is here Alpha.” He says.“The werewolf council?” My mother says. “Oh yes, Alpha Theo said he was going to the werewolf council to tell them about Dawson’s crimes.” I say, “They must be here in regards to those claims.” Shepard adds. “Then let’s go see what he has to say about it all.” My father says. We all head out of the office and downstairs. I see a man with long blac

Keira’s POV“We’ve finally received word from the warriors!” Someone shouts as they burst through the doors of the dining hall. Shepherd and I standup, leaving our half eaten breakfasts behind, and head to my mother’s office. I knock on the door.“Come in.” She calls out. We walk in and see her sitting at her desk, still reading a piece of white paper.“I’m guessing you are here about this?” She says, pulling her glasses down from her nose and holding up the paper in her hands. “I’m not too keen on showing it to your friend, but here.” She holds it out to me. I walk over and take it from her. I start to read it and I’m shocked. Dawson killed Alpha Thorin in a challenge. I can’t believe it. My hand covers my mouth in shock. I feel a hand rubbing my back, it’s Shepard. The letter also says that Mason and Lily have been found and that Mason has taken on the role as Alpha now. They are headed back home and the don’t think they are being pursued by Pale Moon pack. At the end it says the

Mason’s POVI feel a pain in my chest and then suddenly the voices of my pack come rushing in. They’re all crying out for my father, Alpha Thorin. I fall to my knees, and hold on tight to Lily as their cries continue to fill my head. The weight of their sorrow mixed with my own is almost too much to bear. But with my father’s last breath, I can feel my own wolf gaining strength. I’m next in line, I will be the new Alpha. I stand to my feet, pushing down the voices in my head. “I need to get to my pack now.” I say.“Head in that direction, that’s where your soldiers should be. We’re going to have to part ways here.” The man who rescued us says. I hurry and run as fast as my body will let me in the direction that he pointed. I can smell my pack’s scent getting stronger and stronger as I approach.“Halt!” I hear some one shout to me. I know it’s one of my own men.“It’s me, it’s Mason.” I reply. Some warriors come out from behind the trees. The looks on their faces tell me everything.

Beta Harth’s POV“Alpha Dawson, I CHALLENGE YOU!” Alpha Thorin shouts for all to hear. Dawson starts to laugh.“You can’t be serious. You want to challenge me. You think you’ll just be everyone’s Alpha? The council won’t allow that.” Dawson says.“I’ll give my son the Alpha position at Elk Forest. Then find a suitable replacement for me at Pale Moon. I trust my son to be a better Alpha. Your father knew you’d bring his pack down.” Dawson growls at Thorin.“Now accept my challenge, unless you’re scared.” “Alpha, do you believe this is the right move?” I ask him through mindlink. “If I win, I can save us from a war.” He says.“And if you lose? What will happen with the pack.” “Save Mason, he’ll be the new Alpha.” He replies.“But Alpha-“ he cuts off the mindlink. Dawson looks pissed off.“Fine, I accept. And after I win, my warriors will tear yours apart.” Dawson says. Thorin steps forward and meets Dawson in the middle. I can’t believe
