Aliyah
“Your Alpha is really something, Chloe,” said Janice, returning me to my senses. We were now in the training hall with Pete, the gamma of the Howlers Pack, whom Xavier had ordered to join and help us with training. “Alpha just wants to make sure you're safe, especially since you're the daughter of Alpha Joric.” I understood Chloe's reason, but I still felt uncomfortable staying at the packhouse simply because I’m human and supposedly need extra protection. “Aliyah, I’m sorry for Alpha Xavier. He’s like that because he feels responsible for you, especially since you're in the pack.” I nodded at Pete and pretended everything was okay, but I was nervous. We started warming up because, according to the gamma, our training wouldn’t be easy, especially since Janice said we were training together. I guess being honest didn't give us an advantage. Chloe was already 18, so she had her wolf, while Janice, her sparring partner, didn’t. But they were both in human form, so it was okay. Also, I knew that the latter was a good fighter. I was wrestling with a large rope. Honestly, it was hard for me because I wasn’t used to it, so what I was doing seemed boring. But I needed to respect Pete’s wishes as the gamma. We were all focused when Chloe and Janice suddenly stopped sparring. “Alpha,” they greeted, making me stop what I was doing and look at them. Once again, my heart raced when our eyes met. What is it about this Xavier that makes me feel this way? It’s impossible that I’m his mate because he hasn’t said anything. Wait, what if I am? I shook my head. Chloe said Xavier also wants to find his fated mate. If I were the one, he would tell me to claim me. “How’s it going?” Xavier asked. “Janice is doing well, Alpha. She’s been training correctly. Aliyah is doing the same, but I had Chloe and Janice spar for now.” Xavier nodded at his gamma’s report. “Okay, continue your sparring, and I’ll take care of Aliyah.” What? What’s he planning? He’s the Alpha, and he’s going to spar with me? “Don’t be scared, Aliyah. Alpha Xavier can easily control his strength. When he’s not doing anything, he trains the omegas and the pack members who don’t have their wolves yet.” Chloe even tried to cheer me on. “Let’s go,” Xavier said as he started walking to the far end of the training hall where the mats were laid out, and I had no choice but to follow. “Even though I know you’ve already warmed up, let’s do it again.” I nodded, and we started stretching. I felt awkward because I could feel his eyes on me. He wasn’t even trying to hide it as if he wanted me to know. “Tell me, Aliyah, do you have a boyfriend?” “Huh? No,” I answered awkwardly. “Why?” “No reason.” There really wasn’t. Besides, why did he want to know that? He didn’t say anything else and looked serious, especially when he said we’d start sparring. “Ready?” I nodded hesitantly, and we got into our fighting stances. “You make the first attack.” I did as he said and tried to focus, even though I couldn’t beat him. I’d be lucky to land a single punch. I did my best, and for some reason, part of me wanted to impress him. I noticed his slight smile whenever I made an unexpected move. Still, he managed to dodge because he was fast, which annoyed and frustrated me. We continued sparring, and I started losing awareness of the people around us. It felt like the two of us were in the training hall, and nothing else mattered. There were times when I wanted to use my ability just to land one hit, but I kept my self-control. I knew using my mind-reading ability like I did in front of the rogue wasn't right. Instead, I focused on thinking of a way to land a punch. I quickly switched to my right after side-stepping when he avoided my left hook. For a moment, I thought I would land a hit, but his reflexes were incredible, and he easily dodged it. He's superior since he's an alpha and has a lycan beast. “You seem frustrated,” he said with a grin, which made me even angrier. I know my emotions show clearly when I feel this way. I ignored his comment and kept going. I wasn’t tired yet and felt more motivated when he teased me. When I tried to attack, I was shocked to suddenly find him right in front of me. My eyes widened as I looked into his deep eyes. Before I knew it, I felt myself lifted off the mat, landing on my back with Xavier on top of me. We were staring straight into each other’s eyes. Our faces were so close, and my heart was racing. It's pounding that it almost wants to get out of my chest. The electric current I felt from the contact of our bodies returned, and I wanted to break free, but Xavier didn’t let me. “You’re nervous,” he said. “It’s because we’re so close.” “What’s wrong? Is there someone who’d be mad? I thought you didn’t have a boyfriend?” “I don’t, but I’m uncomfortable being this close.” “Lesson number one, no matter what happens, stay focused.” “Huh?” I asked, confused. “Ouch!” I yelped when he flicked my nose. “I just said stay focused, but you’re already losing yourself. We’re training, remember?” I couldn’t respond. Are we really still training? Why does it feel like he’s flirting with me? “Damn, you smell good,” he muttered, making me feel shocked. But I composed myself and took the chance to hit him from the side, making him roll away. “Lesson number one, no matter what happens, stay focused,” I repeated what he said as I stood up while he was still looking at me. I noticed him smirk before getting up. “I’ll attack, and you defend.” I thought he would charge immediately, so I braced myself. But I was wrong because he gave me time to get ready again. What’s really going on with this guy? “I’ve been to different packs and met different people,” he said, making me frown. Why is he telling me this? Before I could react, he suddenly grabbed me by the waist. I thought he would slam me down, but that’s not what happened. I found myself on top of him instead. My eyes widened as I looked at his handsome face. “Ohh…” I couldn’t help but moan, closing my eyes when I felt his hand slide down my side. “Shit!” I cursed and abruptly opened my eyes when I realized what I had done. “It’s fine, baby. I’m the only one who heard that.” Baby? Did he just call me baby?Hi! I hope you will like and support Xavier and Aliyah's story. Please like and comment and don't forget to vote with your gems. Thank you!
AliyahThe hairs on my arms stood up because of what Xavier said, and I quickly stood up. I shook my head, trying to clear how he called me out of my mind. I didn’t even remember how we finished our training and how I got back to the pack house while Janice went to Chloe’s place. Janice and I are supposed to stay here until tomorrow. Still, I can’t imagine what else might happen between me and that Alpha.I’m currently on the third floor of the pack house. Chloe showed me where my room would be before we started training. She said the Alpha family lived here, but when I entered my room, I didn’t see anyone except for three omegas who seemed to be finishing up some cleaning. They noticed me but just nodded before walking past me.I took a shower to wash off the sweat. Honestly, I enjoyed the training with Xavier. I learned something even though I didn’t land a single hit on him.I observed how he dodged. I’m not sure if he was just avoiding me or if he was showing me the moves instead o
AliyahChloe’s parents were very welcoming, and I think they were extra sweet to my friend. It looked like Janice appreciated how kind the Beta family was to her. Maybe it’s because she’s the daughter of an Alpha, so I just shrugged it off.I was supposed to have dinner with them, but John, Chloe’s dad, said I should eat at the packhouse since I was staying there. It seemed like Xavier would be mad if I didn’t, so I followed their advice.I didn’t stay long at their house. Chloe just introduced me to her parents, John and Marsha, and before dinner, Chloe, Adrian, and Janice brought me back to the packhouse. Their house was a little far, and they didn’t want me to walk alone.On the way back, I enjoyed the scenery. It was still a bit bright outside, and since we were just walking, I could freely look around. I hadn’t paid much attention to the surroundings earlier on our way to the training hall because of what Xavier had said.“Well, girl, I guess we’ll leave you here now,” Janice said
AliyahThe king and queen of the supernatural world, Matteo and Freya Harith, are known as the most powerful beings in our realm. Their reign saw them through two wars led by their uncle and aunt, both of which they won successfully. They had twins named Leo and Luna, whom they loved dearly and who were destined to inherit their kingdom.However, due to unforeseen circumstances, the king and queen needed to protect their twins. To do so, they changed their names when they began school. Leo became Allistaire, a strong Lycan Prince. In contrast, Luna became Aliyah, an omega who could move objects without touching them and read minds. But these abilities were not easy for her to control. Often, her nose would bleed when she used them. She had no one to guide her, fearing her parents might find out.Aliyah kept her abilities to herself out of fear that the kingdom would see her as evil and compare her to her witch aunt, who waged war a year after her parents’ reign. How do I know this? Be
AliyahGlendale University.It’s Monday morning, and I’m currently walking around the university. I usually do this, especially since the place is new to me. I guess it's also part of my cautious nature, which started when I was a child.I walked with many other students and noticed that most of them seemed to know each other and were happy to see their friends. I wish I could say the same, but my friend chose to study at another school because her crush is there."Yay!" I flinched when I heard a familiar voice from behind, so I quickly turned around. My eyes widened when I realized I had heard correctly because I saw my best friend running toward me, even though I thought she was at a different school."You witch! What are you doing here?" I asked as she finally reached me, and I’m sure disbelief was still all over my face."I can’t let you have all the fun by yourself!" Janice said, laughing, which made me laugh, too. I consider her my best friend because she treats me like I'm not
AliyahThree days have passed since that incident, and I haven’t seen Xavier or Adrian again. Maybe it was just a coincidence that they were there, which I’m thankful for because if they hadn’t been, the palace would probably be mourning because of me.“Okay, class, listen.” I suddenly looked at our P.E. professor, glancing around the class before she continued. “In a week, we’ll have a small competition. Since physical strength will be needed, it will be divided into two categories: one for the supernatural and one for the humans.”The students began whispering. Some were nervous, while others were excited. “Even though the categories are separate, you will still fight, and there’s a chance someone might get hurt. We need to ensure, especially for humans, that we can fight. So that, no matter what happens, you can protect yourselves.”“Like a fighting tournament?” asked one of my male classmates, who I was sure was a wolf.“Yes, but even though it’s a fighting tournament and there’s
AliyahIt was early Saturday morning, and I was heading to the university parking lot. I commuted as usual. Dad insisted I should have a car and a driver. Still, I refused because I wanted to keep my identity secret, so I stayed low profile.“I thought you wouldn’t show up,” Janice greeted me as soon as she saw me, causing me to frown. “I know you’re not fond of these pack visits, and I was worried Aunt Avery wouldn’t allow you to come.”“She allowed me because I told her I’d be with you,” I replied, seeing a wide smile across her face. She was about to say more when a black SUV suddenly stopped beside us. The passenger door opened, and Chloe stepped out with a smile.“Hi, girls! Sorry, I’m a bit late. Adrian took forever.” We looked toward the driver’s seat, where her brother Adrian also got out, staring intensely at Janice, and my friend stared back at him.“Hey! What’s going on with you?” I asked, surprising her.“Huh? Nothing, I just– I don’t know.”“Adrian, stop scaring Janice. S
