The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 52
Edwina's POV...Discussing with Sonia wasn't all that gratifying. I had to face the truth and lies all in my head, what we get to face every day we sleep and wake up because we can't come to face our truth.The ambiance of this high-end restaurant brought a different kind of peace to me, the serene environment and the shallow waters at the back of the restaurant, which had an overview of the mountainside directly bordering the night howlers and sizzlers territory.The blue flowers rarely grew in the winter but somehow found a way to preserve themselves in the summer. The green grasses and the sound of crickets roaming around them, they screech and search, maybe for the clarity we all do.The birds fly around trying to build nests in the tallest trees in harmony, the back and forth movement they make, and how they occasionally settle on the ground to pick up a piece of stick and fly back up.The wooden table in front of me with a cup of cappuccino. I know I was thirty minutes early, bu

Edwina's POV..."That was way too funny," he replied, and I smiled."I needed to make that joke. I saw you were being overly guarded with me, and I understand why. You are the Beta, and I am the Luna, and based on history, those combinations are bad news,""Yes, they are, and I was just trying to keep my respectful distance," he explained and to which I understood perfectly well what he meant by that."I get you, but I brought you out here to talk, and Alpha Alex is aware of me being here with you. Although he made a similar joke you can't blame us being too cautious around you for, Beta wolf, "He laughed again, and I realized he wasn't as uptight and stoic as I had thought him to be."I understand one man had spoilt our reputation, it would take a lot to build it back again," he said with a smile on his face."Yes, it would, but you being here with me in this friendly brunch is the right step, I think," I teased again."Then I will try my best for the honor of all Betas before the l

Ben's POV...I get to sit down here with this bunch of buffoons and plan every day. I think the reason why the sizzlers have not captured the night howlers' territory isn't because of the strength or infuse of Alpha Alex but rather because of the incompetence of their shameless leader, Alpha Bethel.I am not shading Alpha Bethel because of the fact I am trying to find the adequate reason to kick him in the ass and stab him in the back after all is said and done, but rather because he is purely shameless and lacks the skills to be a great leader.I find the system unfavorable when it comes to picking a leader. A leader should be picked based on their ability and capabilities. They should be able to call all the shots and make hard decisions when necessary in order not to put the realm in harm's way.But since they were being picked through lineage, we get people as worthless as Alpha Bethel, who invited me to his private room yesterday, I was expecting that we would be there to discuss

Ben's POV...Loyalty is sacred and hard, I would know, because I was never loyal, not to my Alpha, not to my wife, and not even to my pack."Yes, exactly," I finally said, throwing myself back to the conversation." and also when the news of me escaping got out, I am sure the tension increased in the air,""Yes, in fact, that was more when people who were not able to make the right decision to join us did.I chuckled under my breath. I hope he doesn't get to face the consequences of his foolishness soon. It can happen to him but not before I have executed and fully accomplished my plans."So with all indications, the right time to act is now. They are outnumbered and underprepared, and even though they are aware of our intention and possibly have a glimpse of our plan in regards to me joining the sizzlers, I am sure they are still very much clueless about our approach and how to tackle it, therefore putting us at an advantage when it comes to numbers and tactics," I outlined and I coul

Alexander's POV...I peeped through the window to see the thousands of people who gathered outside waiting for my speech. Truly I don't know if I was in the right frame of mind to give out a speech. I didn't even know exactly what I was expected to tell them.A lot had been going on that I had no control over. A lot had been going on, which made me feel weak and helpless.At this point in my reign as Alpha, I am not so sure about the decisions I am making, if it is for the best of the pack or mine.Like for instance, the decision I made to still pretend to be crippled when I can walk just fine. At first, I thought I was doing it because of the bigger plan and the element of surprise. When the Sizzlers first attacked us, they had the element of surprise waiting for us down that tunnel and, of course, a cheating ass Beta as their accomplice who betrayed us at the slightest opportunity he had.If it was not for Caleb and some group of Omega who felt something was wrong when the Gamma wol

Alexander's POV...I still felt all the adrenaline rushing through my body as I reached the top of the stage. It wasn't easy to know that this crowd had been gathered for you, just to hear you make some sort of profound speech, and you truly know that you had nothing for them in your heart. There was no atom of false hope they were going to get from me. No glimpse of wildflowers ready for battle.They were still adjusting the microphone to fit down to my level, where the wheelchair height stopped. If I am to be honest, there is this part of me that just wants to stand up from this wheelchair. Everyone kept glaring at me, still muttering things underneath their breaths. I had never thought the day would come when I would be this afraid to talk to my people, and not just the fear but a justifiable belief of hopelessness.I hope I don't die of anxiety when all is done. Caleb then whispered to me."You will do just fine," he said, and that was not the exact encouragement I needed, but it

Alexander's POV..."I am Carlos, the representative of the omega clan, I have heard all you say, great Alpha, and like you have always known, the omega are the warriors and had always stood solidly behind you. We wanted to know, for the threatening battle, what your plans of getting more recruits to join us were because clearly, we know we are outnumbered, and I am not sure even by magic we could win," he said in a bit of an increased octave. At this point, I truly miss Caleb as the head omega wolf. He would have never asked me such a question. He wouldn't do that to me. He is my friend."Thank you, and I understand your worries and truly, it is valid. I had reached out to some of the clans and packs in the realm in which we have a strong relationship to join forces with us, and I am hoping for a positive response from them all because in the past, I can count for quite a several time when we had lent them also helping hands."So I had lied. At this point, I had not reached out to any
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 59
Edwina's POVI gazed upon the man to which I had married proudly, how he had managed to salvage all the situation that presented itself yesterday as a true leader. If I wasn't aware of his struggles beforehand, I would have assumed he had a speech memorized somewhere in the back of his head and also prepared a lot of possible questions and found answers to them, but there was nothing like that. He had been scared shitless to address his people beforehand. He had even dropped the speech which we had rehearsed that gave some politically correct answers but still didn't visit most of the key areas in which we faced.He was able to let out his vulnerable side and amplify his strengths more than his weaknesses. He had been able to gain the trust of most of the pack members, at least to a very large extent, and that was a win.We had come back that day, and I had fucked him so well last night. It wasn't a gratitude fuck. It was more like an "I am proud of you fuck," I didn't say it, but I

Authors POV...Becca searched around the kitchen uncomfortably, trying not to meet Caleb's eyes. It was just as Ramona had said; he looked terrible. His eyes obviously were sleep deprived. She had been trying her best to avoid him all week, and it worked. Becca didn't get to see him, just as she had wished.Watching her every move, Caleb walked towards the kitchen island, taking Ramona's seat. He sighed in exhaustion."Until when would you keep doing this?" He asked, holding his head together with his hands.She gulped hard, toying with her fingers. "did you know about Ramona coming?""How was I supposed to know? I haven't spoken to her in weeks. I was surprised myself to see her here."Searching his eyes for any form of lie or pretence, Becca saw the naivety in his eyes. It was obvious Caleb had no idea of Ramona's coming. She inhaled and exhaled at the same time, trying to steady her breath.It wasn't worth brooding on too much; Becca herself was tired of being so far away from him.
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 216
Authors POV...Ramona searched around the crowd, trying to see if she would get a hold of Becca, but she seemed to disappear at every chance she got to approach her. One thing about the gathering of night howlers is how merry they all become and how they know how to party till the day ends. Especially since the alpha had finally gotten back to his feet. Annoyed at how hard it was becoming, Ramona made her way towards the podium area to ask a guard where Becca was. The guard directed her to the kitchen.Her heels clattered against the hallways as she manoeuvred her way around the pack house. Getting into the kitchen, Becca was there as she had been told. Standing at the edge of the kitchen was Becca, who seemed so lost in her thoughts. Ramona bit her lip really hard; she felt so guilty.For the past three weeks, Ramona had forced her way into Caleb's home to have him bend to her wheel. Unfortunately, Caleb seems to be much more determined than she was to not give in to her advances.Ev

Edwina's POV...For what seemed like a lifetime, he didn't say a word. I was getting bothered, and my standing didn't feel good, considering my position. I would like to think that Xander reads my mind. Almost in a split second, he had dusted a chair that sprouted out from among the piles of antiques in the space and had me seated on it.I gulped nervously, feeling bad for thinking ill of him. "Xander..."He held a hand up, "please let me finish." He pleaded."Okay." I let out in a whisper.Still standing, Xander had his back turned to me, obviously trying to hide the tears in his eyes. "over the years, as I grew, I leaned on Ben as he was the only person really close to me. I felt safe trusting him with all of me. Also, the idea of family grew within me so much. I couldn't wait to have a Luna. When I did come of age, I pleaded hard with the moon goddess to show me my desired mate. When she showed you to me, I was too greedy and thought I was doing it for the sake of the pack. Eventua

Edwina's POV...I stomped my foot through the hallway in annoyance, indecisive as to why my emotions were spluttering all over the place. I could blame it on pregnancy, knowing quite well it wasn't just about that.Tears laced my eyes as I bounced off the walls. Seeing him stand in all of his glory, like the Greek god most books describe, was overwhelming. In all truth, Xander is a good-looking man. Every of his body structure, from the chiselled jawline to his legs, made my clit ache.I was wet beyond measure, and if he slipped right inside me this minute, I was sure to orgasm right on the spot. I feel angry at myself for having such thoughts, considering how much he had disregarded me. But what to do when I miss him so much? I ache for his touch every night, and my urges had mounted since I got pregnant.Probably, just maybe, I would have held back on my sexually consumed thoughts if he wasn't looking so much like a snack. It's been a month, and I must say every day is more than ten
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 213
Alexander's POV...I shifted uncomfortably in the wheelchair, eager to stand up and not have to deal with the facade I had been living in anymore. Glancing to my side, I tried to keep eye contact with Edwina. It was obvious she was doing everything she could to avoid my ears. A week after she found out about my true disabled state, I tried to get on her good book, but she never paid me any mind.I had thought coming out to the pack members would be easy, as I had informed Caleb to arrange the process after a week when I might have gotten back with Edwina. To my disappointment, three weeks went by with myself and Caleb wallowing in self-pity and none of our women paying us any mind. For myself and Edwina, we have been going back and forth on her forgiving me.But she had been really adamant about not wanting to talk to me. The last time I tried to reach out to her, she had told me it would take her a very long time to accept the new me, as she had put it. Sounds frustrating, right? I m

Edwina's POV...I rolled to the side of the bed, trying to find a comfortable side of the bed to rest in, but I couldn't. I had been awake since about seven am, but I couldn't find myself standing up from the bed. I just wanted to remain there, most especially to avoid seeing Xander. At the same time, I was aching badly for food and a nice cup of tea. My baby and I had awoken with a craving for food.Turning around to get a hold of my phone, I attempted to dial Becca when there came a knock on the door. As I got off the bed reluctantly to open it, I hoped it wouldn't be Xander. Nothing has prepared me for such a discussion this morning.Opening it, I found Becca by the door with a platter of food. "Oh my goodness, Becca! You are godsent." I muttered, opening the door widely.My eyes glazed at the sumptuous sight of the breakfast of bacon, toast, scrambled egg, sausage, some freshly made juice, and a cup of tea to cap it all."How in the world did you do this? Do you live in my mind?"
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 211
Authors POV...Caleb scoffed in irritation as he threw daggers at Ramona with his eyes. It had been hard for him to get over how low she had stooped to get back at him. Having her appear in his home looking all relaxed made him boil terribly. He had just taken a pill to suppress the headache threatening to split his head. The moment his eyes landed on Ramona, it seemed to be coming back with full force."Answer the fucking question. Why are you here?" Caleb blurted again, his eyes catching sight of Xander wheeling himself towards his room.Ramona sat with gait, staring at Caleb with a straight face. She had no intention of backing away from fighting for his attention. She had known the kind of ruckus the video and document she had sent to Becca would cause. However, she was less bothered about it and couldn't care less about what anyone thought of her. She wants a home with Caleb and being Ramona, there is no way she would let it go that easily without a fight.Becca was way older tha

Alexander's POV...Eyeballing his ass out, I turned my back to him, trying to wash up the used cups. One thing I loved to do was handle my chores. Before I got confined to the wheelchair, I used to swing by Ben's place to crash after a long day at work. We end up cooking and washing up ourselves. They were sweet memorable moments. I wanted to distract myself from responding to Caleb, or should I say, I was trying to gather my thoughts."Why aren't you saying anything?" He pressed on, raising his head fully now."Can you not." I inhaled deeply, scratching the back of my head. "I hope you haven't taken my advice of keeping something from your woman because I think that has cost me my small family."Caleb snorted, mumbling under his breath. "guess that's too late. But tell me, what happened?""Edwina saw me on my feet," I told him.He started with a perplexed look on his face, "Saw you on your feet? How did that happen?"I rolled my eyes, sitting my butt on a stool. I sighed, "so, yester

Alexander's POV...Woke up to a cold side of the bed. The bags underneath my eyes were enough to act as an airbag during an accident. They were so heavy it felt like my eyes were under pressure.I had waited up for Edwina to return to the room, but it was obvious that wouldn't be happening. I was surprised to find out when I drifted off to sleep, though.My mind wobbled, and all I wanted was to stick to the bed and never have to come out of the room. Different emotions flowed through me. Now that Edwina knows my truth, I feel compelled to let the pack members know too. Truth is, judging by Edwina's reaction, I'm really scared the pack members, too, would be disappointed.I groaned inwardly while pulling at my hair. I can't believe this shit is happening right now; I thought everything was falling into place, and I would show myself to my woman at the right time. I can tell she hates me now and compares me to that fucking Ben. Now I have stooped so low to cursing the dead. I might go b
