The Alpha’s Better Half

Everyone in the room darted a glance at each other without saying anything, they all held their breaths too scared to even breathe well while darting small glances at the man who was seated at the far end of the room.His head was thrown backwards and his eyes were closed as though he was sleeping but the murderous feelings that was emaciating from him said otherwise. His eyes were closed while his eyelashes fluttered lazily.Some of the old people in the room turned to an elderly man while using their hands and eyes to make all kinds of gestures and conversations. The elderly man who looked as terrified as the rest of the men in the room coughed lightly while standing up and bowing his head to the man who looked as if he was still sleeping.“Alpha Alston, on behalf….” The old man had barely started when the supposed sleeping man stopped him in his tracks.“Old man have your seat” he interrupted him finally lifting the eyeli

“Hey baby” someone said pressing a forehead kiss to Arya’s forehead while Arya closed her eyes and allowed herself to relish the sparks that coursed through their body in that spilt second. She then turned to face the boy who had his arms wrapped around her shoulders.“Where have you been?” she asked repeating the question she had asked before. The blonde haired boy tapped on her nose before wearing a smile that never failed to make Arya turn into a puddle of butterflies.“I had to run a few errands” he replied eliciting furrowed brows from Arya.“And you wouldn’t pick my calls?” Arya asked a frown etched to her face while the boy burst into laughter.“C’mon baby. I left my phone in the car so I didn’t see your calls. Why do you think I rushed down here?” he asked as Arya folded her arms shaking of his arms off her shoulders.“What kind of errands would make you leave your phone in the car,” Arya asked.“Anyone could have called, your mom or your Dad or someone important. Don’t tell m

By the time Arya woke up the next morning, she was quick to rehearse her apology in her head while stepping out of her room. She jogged down the stairs with a smile on her face but much to her shock; the dining room and the seating room was empty. Her eyes flew to the digital clock on the wall and it read few minutes’ past 9am in the morning, her parents were early risers and most of the time as early as 6 in the morning, they would be up.She quickly jogged back up the stairs and knocked on their doors. Receiving no reply, she swallowed her saliva and pushed the door open. The sight of the empty room and well laid bed brought Arya to a pause.Her parents had left the house without a word to her.The realization reeled back and hit Arya in the face. She slowly closed the door and walked to her room plopping on the bed and staring into space. It had never, never happened before. her parents were busy people; her Dad worked in one of the biggest hospitals in Denmark and was also one of t

Arya was sure that anger and irritation had mixed up in her blood because she almost couldn’t describe what she was feeling. While the other gathered around for the bonfire; she refused to join them and decided to go for a walk in the woods instead.Her parents, Eileen and then Brad.What the hell was wrong with all of them? Why did they all have to choose one day to infuriate her or turn their backs on her? They could have easily picked different days so that on every day they choose to go bonkers she would have a backup and someone to talk to.She checked her phone for the hundredth time and there were zero missed calls from her parents. She had sent them both a messages earlier apologizing for going against their wishes and saying mean things to them. They had gotten to Mount Mollejo and seeing the serene; she thinks she’s going to have a very good time. She asked them to call her back and even attached a picture of her and her tent.And that was over five hours before and Arya was

Arya didn’t know when she slept off but when she woke up, there was Eileen seating at the edge of her bed.“Are you feeling alright?” Eileen asked quietly and Arya stared at her confused.“How did you know I was at home Eileen?” Arya asked not wanting to believe the thought that swept across her mind.“Because, I as well, I am a wolf” Eileen replied quietly.“I am a werewolf specifically to protect you” Eileen added.Arya stared at Eileen as if she had grown three heads. She chuckled while trying to seat up on her bed.“So you knew about this all long?” Arya asked and Eileen nodded her head.“Yes, I did” Eileen replied.“That was why you went all freaky when I decided to go for the mountain trip. You even had a big fight with me because of it” Arya pointed out but silence was served as an answer for her.“I don’t even know who to trust again. You who I took as my best friend kept such a huge secret from me” Arya said and Eileen chuckled.“Like you would have believed me if I told you
