Aliyah

Xavier kept staring at me without saying a word. I didn't want to let my emotions get the better of me. He was an Alpha, and I was sure there was a big age gap between us. Even though I was a princess, I felt like he could easily manipulate me if I wasn't careful.

"I'll let this slide for now, baby. But that doesn't mean I'm okay with you entertaining other guys," he said after a deep sigh.

He lifted his hand and gently brushed my cheek as if he was being extra cautious. I stopped myself from closing my eyes and kept looking at him so he wouldn't think I was too affected by his actions.

"I don't like sharing what's mine, so keep that in mind."

"You don't own me, so you can't boss me around." I didn't know where I found the courage to say that, but I saw the corner of his lips twitch up before he replied.

"Not yet, but we'll get there," he said before taking my lips again.

Before I knew it, I was kissing him back. We only stopped when we were both out of breath.

    AliyahAt least he left my room quickly. But he rushed me, saying we’d have breakfast together. I didn’t argue to avoid any more awkwardness and just let him go. The way he looked at me, especially the slight movement of his Adam’s apple, was starting to make me feel uncomfortable.Something felt different. My body was heating up, and I wanted to pull him closer. I don't know what's happening with me whenever he's around.Earlier, I stood up and stepped back a bit. He frowned like he didn’t like what I did, but I didn’t care. It’s better this way, especially since I was starting to feel my nipples hardening.“Make sure you clean yourself thoroughly. I don’t want anyone smelling your arousal,” he said.I quickly moved to the bathroom and took a shower. I didn’t want anyone in his pack catching a whiff of me and thinking weird things—it would be embarrassing.When I finished, I left my room and was surprised to see a woman, I mean a girl, smiling at me.“Hi, I’m Xyril, Alpha Xavier’s lit

    Aliyah"Form your lines!" Pete shouted, and everyone started to move, including us friends. "Begin your warm-up exercise!"We took at least 15 minutes with the exercise before we lined up again."Alright, listen up. Today is a sparring day, and I want to let you know that our two visitors will join us," Pete said.I looked at him and smiled. I liked Pete—not in a romantic way, but as a person. Honestly, I didn't expect members of the Howlers Pack to be so welcoming. Everything I heard about them is the total opposite.Many think that we have to be careful in visiting the pack. It was a rumor that each pack member was very unruly. They say the pack managed to get into business with humans because they scared them.

    Xavier What did she say? She liked Pete? I couldn’t help but feel my blood boil after hearing that. We just had an intimate moment upstairs, and then she said that? That she likes my gamma? Even though jealousy was eating me alive at that moment, my mind remained clear. I knew Riza would be a better match for her, which is why I called her to spar with Aliyah. My mate didn’t disappoint me. Yes, Aliyah is my mate, but I don’t plan on letting her know that just yet. There are things I need to handle before I tell her everything. It’s also my way of keeping her safe, especially now that rogues have been crossing into my territory more frequently. “Son, why do I get the feeling Aliyah isn’t just a guest?” Dad asked. I came to the alpha’s office after leaving the trainees behind. I had to go because I didn’t want anyone to suspect I was keeping an eye on or paying extra attention to anyone. “You’re overthinking, Dad.” Was that why he was here instead of being upstairs with Mom, who he

    Aliyah He said I wasn't just any woman for him, yet there he was, holding another girl. I raised an eyebrow at him as if daring him to tell me I was wrong. "I will make sure to use everything I learned in our training for this friendly tournament at the university. Thank you, Alpha Xavier. I'll go to my room now to get ready for home." It seemed like he wanted to stop me, but before he could, Stelle suddenly burst into loud sobs. "I don't understand why Dad is like this, Alpha." I make a face when she deliberately squeezes herself into Xavier's chest. I'm so pissed, but I can't let them notice it. "Stelle, calm down. I can't understand what you're saying if you're crying like that," Xavier said as he gently pushed her away, keeping a respectful distance by holding her shoulders at arm's length. I turned around and nodded slightly at Adrian, who was smiling as I passed him and headed straight to my room to change. Honestly, I was irritated with Stelle because I knew she was fake.

    AliyahLike Xavier said, he and Adrian gave us a ride. The two were in the front seats while Janice and I sat in the back.We dropped off my friend at her dorm first since it was on the way. I didn’t want them to take me to my apartment, so I just asked to be dropped off near the bookstore."Why not at your place?" Xavier asked when I told them I was getting off."Uh- ah- well, I need to buy something. And don’t you guys still have somewhere to go?" I hoped he wouldn’t notice that I didn’t want them to take me home. I was worried they might run into Aunt Avery, and I knew she would start asking questions."Are you sure, Aliyah? It’s really not a problem for me and Alpha. Plus, I promised my sister I’d make sure you both got home safely," Adrian said."It’s okay, Adrian. I mean, Beta Adrian. Besides, I do need to buy something.""Let her, Adrian," Xavier said, making me glance at him. He’s probably acting like this because he just saw Stelle."Alright," Adrian replied as he slowly pulle

    AliyahWhat is he doing here? I didn't know alphas were invited."Why didn't you tell me your dad is here?" I immediately asked Janice, not taking my eyes off Xavier and Alpha Joric in front."I didn't know either." That witch just shrugged before suddenly remembering something. "If Alpha Xavier is here, does that mean his beta is here too?""Why do you sound excited?" I asked, puzzled by the smile on her face, which quickly disappeared."What are you talking about? I was just asking. And what's wrong with being excited? Aren't you excited for the tournament?""I am excited about the tournament, but you seem excited about something else. You're being too defensive."She rolled her eyes at me and looked ahead, so I did the same."But why didn't Chloe tell us her alpha would be here too?" Janice whispered, leaning slightly closer."Maybe she really had no idea. Didn't she say earlier that her brother wanted to come in here, but she didn't allow him?""Maybe it's a surprise."There was no

    AliyahI went back to the ground, and before taking my place next to Janice again, I glanced at Xavier, who was also looking straight at me. My heart beat faster, thinking he had always been eyeing me.I quickly looked away; who knows what he might think. Better not risk it."What did he say?" my friend asked."It's all good. I told him I'm not sick, just that my mom is overprotective and worries too much about what might happen to me."I knew she understood what I meant. I couldn't say it outright because others around us are wolves with sharp hearing and might listen in.I had to be careful. Avoiding any mention of my family was my way of doing that."Remember, whoever gets the first two hits wins," Janice's dad reminded us."Yes, Alpha!" We all responded in unison before Sir Fritz, our Math teacher and today's emcee, took the microphone."You can now proceed to the designated area for your category. As you've seen, the ground has been divided, and you'll find two boxes where you'll

    Aliyah"Thank you, Alpha Xavier," Alpha Joric said with a smile as they shook hands. The woman had won, and now the two alphas exchanged the category they were holding."You're welcome, Alpha Joric." Xavier looked serious, but when his gaze landed on me after Janice's father left, he immediately smirked."Okay, just because you requested me to be here doesn't mean everything will be easy for you.""Oh, come on, Alpha. We just wanted to see you up close." I rolled my eyes at the flirtatious tone of the woman who spoke. Xavier noticed it, and he smiled while looking at me."Alright, all odd numbers, group together. The same goes for the even numbers." His voice was firm, and everyone got serious as they quickly moved to the places Xavier pointed out."Now, number 1 will fight against number 2. Number 3 will fight against number 4, and so on. I assume you all got that?" There was no issue with the pairings since the boys and girls were separated."Yes, Alpha!" everyone shouted in unison.

    Xavier"Where have you been?" Adrian asked when I returned to the pack house. He stared at me as I walked toward my office, and he followed.I noticed him sniffing slightly, probably trying to figure out where I had been. But too bad for him, I took a shower in the bungalow before returning to the pack. I didn't want anyone to smell Aliyah's scent on me. It wouldn't be safe for her."Why are you still here?" I asked. It was already late, and normally, he'd be home by now unless I gave him something to do."You didn't answer my question," he said."I didn't know I had to report to you," I replied, sitting in my chair and looking up at him."If you hadn't suddenly disappeared, I wouldn't have asked. Stelle disappeared too and came back late but only to tell everyone that she was going home.""Stelle?" I asked, confused.He nodded. "Everyone thinks you were with her. Jessica said she saw you both leaving the university after you told her that Aliyah was okay.""Jessica saw me with Stelle

    Mature ContentAliyahI was touched by what he said. I know the responsibility of being an Alpha, and the fact that he chose me over that means so much to me.But I also know that he shouldn’t be doing this. I’ve seen how his pack members respect him and how he treats them. Even Chloe admires him as an Alpha."Baby, I know it’s hard for you to accept the setup I can offer. But believe me, this is for your own safety, too."He held my face gently, stroking my cheeks with his thumbs. It felt so good whenever our skin touched."I assure you, there's no one else but you. I’m not using the pack as an excuse to betray you. You can visit the pack anytime you want, and I want you to know that my father knows who you are to me."Was that why his father welcomed me so easily when I was at their pack house? Somehow, knowing that his father acknowledged our bond made me feel proud.I never expected Xavier to dislike the palace, especially the royal family, since his father, Lucio Bloodworth, was k

    Aliyah"Of course not!" he exclaimed. Pain is visible on his face. "Is that how you see me? That I would stoop so low just to sleep with any woman I want?"I couldn't answer right away because he had a point. He was an alpha and didn't need to sweet-talk any woman just to get them into bed. If he wanted, he could have as many women as he pleased, whether human or she-wolf.But even though I knew that, I still couldn't believe what he said.Me? His mate?"Is it really that hard to believe that you're my mate?" he asked."Why are you only telling me this now? There has to be a reason. I need to know what it is.""The pack is very unstable right now. With the frequent rogue sightings just outside my borders, I don't want their attention to divert to you. I want to keep us a secret until everything is settled."He's going to hide me? He doesn't want anyone to know that we're mates?"Another reason is that you're still studying, and I don't want you tied down with the responsibility of bein

    I was shocked when he suddenly took my hand, intertwined our fingers, and pulled me away from school.I looked around, worried that someone might see us. I didn't want people to get the wrong idea.I was also nervous that my parents might have assigned someone to watch over me, and if they saw this, they would definitely report me to the palace."Stop, Alpha!" I said, halting my steps. He immediately stopped and looked at me, his brows furrowed, waiting for me to speak."What are you doing? What if someone sees us? What will they think?" I asked in a low voice. I knew he would hear me. His hearing was sharp.But instead of answering, he just pulled me again. Though it wasn't rough, his movements were controlled, almost gentle.We kept walking until we reached the side of the bookstore I wanted to visit. I was surprised when he pulled off a cloth covering a motorcycle behind the store.There was a box at the back of the bike. Xavier opened it, took out a helmet, and placed it on my head

    Aliyah"What's wrong, baby?" Xavier asked, his eyes locked on me. Judging by the smirk on his face, I had a feeling he already knew what I was feeling.I really wanted to read his mind, but I was scared to. I was still weak, and my strength was just barely starting to come back."N-Nothing, Alpha. Why are you here?" I asked. "What about the tournament?""Didn't I say earlier that Adrian took my place there?" he replied.Right, but why didn't he go back there? Why is he here in front of me instead?"And Jessica?" I asked."She's fine now and relaxed after I told her your sudden weakness and nosebleed weren't because of her punch."I just nodded. Once again, I remembered that shadow I saw behind her. What was that?I looked back at Xavier, who was still staring at me."You said earlier you were watching our fight," I said."Yes, why?" His interest suddenly seemed real. Did he see what I saw, too?I shook my head. Probably not. But—Argh, I don't even know what to think anymore. I don't e

    "How are you feeling now?" Sir Jake asked. The bleeding from my nose had stopped, and Dr. Martin had already assured me that there was nothing to worry about since everything was normal."I'm okay now, Sir." I glanced slightly at Xavier, who was still staring at me."I think you need to tell your parents about what happened so they can have you checked again by a doctor if needed. I don't want them thinking that the school neglects its students, especially humans.""I will let my parents know, Sir.""Thank you," Sir Jake replied before turning to Xavier."You can tell Jessica that she has nothing to worry about since Aliyah is fine. I'm sure she'll be able to relax now.""Yes, Sir," Xavier replied, glancing at me once more before finally leaving the clinic.I didn't want him to go yet. I still wanted to be with him, even though I felt slightly nervous. But at the same time, I didn't want Sir Jake to notice that there was something going on between me and Xavier. Even though, right now,

    Aliyah“Are you okay?” Xavier asked again once we were in the clinic.“Excuse me, Alpha.” He had no choice but to step aside to let the nurse pass.“Does it hurt, Aliyah?” the nurse asked, but I just shook my head.“Are you sure?” Xavier asked again.“Yes, Alpha. The punch didn’t hit me.” And it was true.“Aliyah!” Janice called out worriedly as she rushed into the clinic with her father and Chloe.“Are you okay, A-Aliyah?” Alpha Joric asked, his voice full of concern.“I’m fine, Uncle Joric.”“This is the first time I’ve seen you like this. Are you sick or something?” he asked.“This usually happens when I study too much. But I suddenly felt dizzy and had a headache earlier when it happened,” I admitted. I needed to be honest, at least a little.It’s not even exam week, so it’s unlikely that I overworked myself studying. That excuse wouldn’t work right now.“Maybe we should call Dr. Martin.” The nurse, who had just finished taking my blood pressure and temperature, looked at me with a

    "Next round, Jessica and Aliyah!" one of the professors shouted. Did my friend lose?I was shocked, so I looked around in search of Janice. I found her sitting beside Chloe, and both were smiling at me, even giving me a thumbs-up. I glanced at the girl who had defeated her and noticed she was also looking at me, giving me a chill."Remember, the first to land two hits wins," our PE teacher reminded us with a smile. Our teachers were really kind and supportive of all students. I guess this is what happens when the people in charge have principles, treat everyone fairly, and, most importantly, follow the rules.I nodded, and so did Jessica, the one who defeated Janice."Go, Aliyah!" My two friends cheered, making me shake my head.Just like before, we started in our fighting stances and waited for Sir's whistle.Compared to my previous opponent, this one looked more determined to win. The way she stared at me, it was like she wanted to kill me. I couldn't help but feel nervous. There was
