The Alpha's Weakness Chapter 49: You're My Mate
[Dove]My eyes grew misty again. Before I made a crying mess of myself, I leaned forward and captured his lips as his arms circled around my waist and pulled me close. When we broke away, Patrick and his band played a fast piece and I laughed out at the memory of the feast and my complaints. Scanning the faces that had long become familiar, their smiles bore new meaning for me - their acceptance of me as a member of their pack. I had wanted to be a priestess of the Moon Goddess because I thought I would be accepted without judgement at the house of the Goddess. She cares for and protects us so I would feel accepted. But it turns out that I was welcomed and accepted unconditionally in a place where I should feel the least kinship. Tears welled up in my eyes once more as Cole hugged my shoulder, faced the villagers and thanked them. Once their applause faded, they dispersed to the trays of steaming food.Cole returned to me. "I have many witnesses now." He wiped away the wet

[Dove]Where he had bitten stung furiously the next morning. I had to ice the area whilst Cole kissed me whenever he got the chance. I knew he was trying to comfort my pain, but I still glared at him in the swooning effects of his kiss. Then, as my pain subsided slightly, he broke the news to me:Claire had left the pack at dawn with Abe. She would bring Abe back, then find my father and convince him to leave the Moon Paw Pack. "It could take a while," her hand-written note explained. "But I will succeed.' I read the note again then folded it. She had left the note on the kitchen counter and Cole found it when he was getting the ice. "When will she be back?" Cole muttered. I shrugged, feeling hopeful. "She didn't say specifically." Cole dropped his head and shook it with a chuckle. "I have to review the rules. People are leaving the village freely without my consent." Seeing that I wasn't in the mood for a laugh, he sat closer and I rested my head on his shoulder. *

[Dove]"Nooo!" A long piercing scream. One of a broken heart and shattered dreams. It could have been mine, but it wasn't. I watched on quietly as an angry finger shot at me like a silver bullet. "Not her! Anyone but her!" A sweet voice that matches the beautiful face continued in its deafening shriek. That face turned to me, its pretty features crushed in pure anger and disgust. "Cole is mine! You--." She was pulled away instantly. Twisting and kicking, she screamed curses that echoed into the background. The names I was called behind my back were not being screamed in the open. 'Burden', 'b*tch', 'slut'. Everyone heard but no one cared. They acted like I deserved them. I knew about them all along. Beautiful face and her chummies didn't bother to hide their mocking expressions, sneaking half-covered smiles whenever I was near. Their private discussions were all about me - my background and my body parts. Silence again. Except for the whispering amongst the pack. Someone

[Cole]Cole wanted to throw his second in command over a cliff. Apparently, some low-level werewolf in a neighboring pack had insulted him. It didn't bother him but the news started rumors about the Whispering Moon Pack, and he needed to settle that - a leader must protect his pack and its pride. He called in his two fiercest and most trusted warriors, and the Gamma, the younger of the two, immediately suggested a confrontation. But the fearsome leader of the Whispering Moon Pack was hesitant. "We have great numbers and strength." He rubbed his nose, looking down. "It won't be a fair fight and it will look bad on us.""A tribute then." The Beta, a ladies' man, breathed coolly. Before Cole could stop him, he suggested his favorite grand scheme. "Let them pay you a tribute, Cole. A bride." Before Cole could react, the Gamma beamed at him, oblivious to the true intention. "That's brilliant! What do you think, Cole? Brilliant, right?"Cole was speechless. He didn't see it coming

[Dove]"Why are we here?" Even in the dark, I could make out the words on the signboard. CONNIE'S BED & BREAKFAST. The only answer I received was silence. I rolled my eyes and followed his back, trying hard not to look at the hard muscles flexing beneath the wet translucent shirt. If someone told me he was related to an ox, I'd believe it in a second. "Cole!" An exhausted female voice, then an old lady appeared with short permed hair and a floor-caressing black dress. She rushed forward to the towering man before me.Surprisingly, he bent his knees to receive a hug and remained in a bowing stance as the old lady asked about his presence. "I need a room, Connie. Just tonight." His voice was gentler than I could have imagined possible. I swung around, just in time to see a smile - one from a grandson to a grandmother. It was like a burst of sunshine. My heart skipped a beat. I quickly looked away and scanned the space. It was nice, clean and homely. Wood was everywhere; like m

[Dove]Connie is not Cole's grandmother.And Claire is the housekeeper and cook.Those were the first two things I discovered the first week in my new home. Next was the size of Whispering Moon Pack's home ground. Cole's mansion alone is the size of my pack's village. And, according to the second in command (who told me when Cole first introduced us), it is only a fifth of the entire thing. It makes sense that my room is as huge as the main hall in my old home. Yes, I have my own quarters; I'm married but I don't share a room with my husband.Lord Cole Grey decided that I would be a catastrophe to his peace and quiet so he put me in the opposite wing, 3 main halls away from him. That was two weeks ago, and I heard nothing from him or about him ever since. Not even his shadow; and I don't even know if he had one since I've never actually seen him in broad daylight. Same story, different setting. What's new? But I won't let this hurt me. I am determined to do this Luna jo

[Dove]I remembered it was this way.The further I moved from the mansion, the blinder I became. If it wasn't for the moonlight, I'd be lost; I'd rather be dead than be found wandering like a lost sheep. Something cracked under my foot and my heart froze. A part of me knew I should turn back - the last thing I wanted was for Cole to find out that I had been snooping around.The other part of me insisted that it was 'necessary'. I mentally slapped myself. Stop repeating his words, Dove! What the hell is wrong with you? That ox-brain of a werewolf was still missing in action. If he wanted to be non-existent, so be it. That arrogant a**hole. My hand shot up to cover my lips. Dove! When did you learn to cuss like that? I scolded silently. Shocked and ashamed, I quickly closed my palms in front of my face as my mind apologized to the Moon Goddess.The path finally came to the familiar opening. This was the place we stopped and turned around. Owin had panicked, half-pushing and hal

[Dove]I couldn't move. I should fight it, but the feel of his soft, moist lips sent fluttering butterflies all over inside me. I closed my eyes and pulled him closer, inhaling his deep masculine scent. The same lips started nibbling and sucking my upper lip, and then my lower lip, coaxing my mouth to open. I did and his tongue quickly slipped in. The wild slippery caresses lured a soft cry from my throat and my body went limp. A large hand then held the back of my head to keep me in place as another cupped my chin, pushing it up for my lips to press harder onto his. His mouth soon covered mine completely and he deepened the kiss further. My mind was blank and I was spinning deeper into the bright light...Then as abruptly as it had happened, his lips tore away and I was fiercely pushed back. A bump at my waist and I opened my eyes to a hazy view of the kitchen. I was panting heavily. Then, I heard his deep breathing and was pleased that he was as affected as me. Then the fa

The Alpha's Weakness Chapter 48: The Ceremony
[Dove]"Come on, Dove!" Megan's voice crashed into my dreams. Visions in my slumbering mind burst like bubbles. I felt my body's weight once more and groaned quietly. "Wake up. We got a long day ahead." My covers were rudely torn from me and a cold gust washed over me. I shivered slightly. "What long day do we have? Stop it, Megan," I grumbled. A hand grabbed my wrist and pulled me to a sitting position. Then, two hands cradled my cheeks and squashed them hard, like a soft toy. My eyes flared open at the pain and I looked soberly at the annoyed face. "You. You have a long day. Let's go." Megan took my wrist again and pulled me off the bed. She tried to push me towards the bathroom when I stepped aside and gave her a solemn expression. Throwing her arms down, she shot me an exasperated look. "Okay, what? Come on, say."Cole's tone in her voice brought a surge of tears to my eyes. "Oh no, no, no, no." She grabbed my shoulders and shook me hard. "You're not doing this t
The Alpha's Weakness Chapter 47: The Alpha's Secret
[Dove]Cole wanted to stroll back to the village. I wondered what came over him as his fingers weaved through mine, and he clasped my hand, palm to palm, keeping me close while we walked away from the waterfall. He glanced at me and chuckled softly. "What's wrong?""You're unusually cheerful," I noted to him. He answered with that sunshine smile of his that I loved and I was mesmerized. Quickly, he looked ahead with a frown. "Stop looking at me like that." His voice was gruff again. I blinked. Realizing what he meant, I stared ahead as my cheeks betrayed me again. The forest felt suddenly alive with the leaves crunching under our feet and the distant chirping of birds. Winter's coming, I thought, while admiring the bald trees. For some reason, Patrick's bowl-shaped hair came into my mind and I laughed. Cole smiled with furrowed brows. Then, his eyes widened and he glared down at me. "I hope you're not thinking of another man." He halted his footsteps, pulled up our t
The Alpha's Weakness Chapter 46: The Secret Proposal
[Cole]That d*mn woman was at it again. Cole was expecting his wife to be all cheery when he reminded her about their promise of forever. Jude said that women love it when men remember such things.Well, not his wife, apparently, Cole cursed silently.She shot him a frown and said with an innocent shrug, "What did I promise? I can't remember."But then her cheeks flamed up. Cole's eyes widened slightly. Under daylight, her blushing cheeks appeared sunburnt, her smooth, fair skin glowed like silk, and her silver hair sparkled like stars in the darkest night. She looked ravishing, he thought and swallowed hard. Looking down with a chuckle, he returned to her face with a similarly innocent smile. "You look like you need to cool off."She flinched. "No, I'm fine." And then, her fingers pressed on her warm cheeks as if to cool them down. "I think you do." Were his last words before he took her by the wrist and pulled her towards the lake. Dove used her small body's weight to t
The Alpha's Weakness Chapter 45: The Alpha's Plea
[Cole]Forever - was what she had promised him. He won't let her go this easily. She hadn't woken up or returned to her human form since the battle. And it had been three days. Cole stared at the white wolf on his bed, sensing Dove's fragility and growing more despair. He focused on her tiny breathing, fearing that it would go away. Claire quietly appeared at his side. "Thank you for keeping my secret."The giant Alpha didn't respond. Cole had figured out Claire's identity when she first saved Dove from the rogue wolves. It wasn't hard as long as you look at the facts close enough - aside from Jude, Megan, and himself, Claire was the last of the first to know when Dove left the village, so she would be able to get to her in time. When Claire saved Dove again, Cole had realized Claire's special power - hypnotism. Jude had been right about the ancient rumors - wolves with special powers do exist. They are rare, but they live amongst them. But Cole didn't know everythi
The Alpha's Weakness Chapter 44: I Want To Protect You
[Dove]A hand pressed on my shoulder. Claire - my mother, Alisa - stared at me with her usual stony expression. Then, her arms went around me and she hugged me gently. "My baby," she whispered softly in my ears. "Your power is what you make of it. It's your choice." "But I don't know what it is! How do I use it?" I wailed anxiously. She pulled back and stared at me with a keen look. "You know what it is."I sniffed. Studying her face, a wave of calmness overtook me, then a series of flashbacks screened in my mind like a human movie. One thing stood out clearly and it was something that I had been trying my best to achieve, all this while. I want to protect the people I loved. Instantly, my hair burst into a glorious white silver light. It grew stronger and brighter, and my eyelids grew heavier. I closed my eyes and all the smiles that I wanted to protect flashed before me. My body exploded with warm energy.******[Cole]There was silver in the veil of smoke weaving
The Alpha's Weakness Chapter 43: Facing The Sly Wolf
[Dove]The villagers and I were standing on guard at the gate, facing the bluish-grey mountains when Connie came up behind us. "A force is coming. Seven odd." This was unexpected, I thought. Who could it be? I wanted to ask when Abe's face barged into my view. My heart seized for a moment. An unknown fear crept into my mind. What is he doing here? Shouldn't he be at the battle?"Dove," Abe said calmly. His mask was completely off, showing his raw emotions and darkest desires. "I didn't expect you to be here." He raised his head to the blackening sky and inhaled deeply, then returned to us with an evil grin on his face. "I wasn't expecting the village to be guarded." Realizing that he was up to his old sneaky ways, I straightened. "You never change."An eerie cackle escaped his grinning lips. "Aren't you bolder now?" His smiling eyes fell into a death stare. "You think that marrying an Alpha changes your status, don't you? Did you tell them, Dove? About your special gift."I
The Alpha's Weakness Chapter 42: This Is Forever
[Dove]I awoke to an empty bed. Feeling the dent on my bed, Cole's warmth kissed my fingers. I realized that he had only just left. Probably to catch up on the preparations for tomorrow, I thought, feeling lonely without his presence. Instinctively, I reached to the back of my neck and felt - nothing. A comforting smile spread across my lips. I managed to stop him. Then, I pulled my knees up, covered my face in them and broke down into tears. I want him to mark me. I want him as my mate. He's my mate, my mind screamed desperately. Why do I have such a sad life? I keep forming dreams only to have them shattered by my own hands. Someone knocked softly at my door. Hastily, I sniffed hard and wiped away anything that would betray my vulnerability, then I answered the second knocking. Claire entered with my breakfast. She raised her hand to above her head, placed the tray on the bed and then pointed at the steaming beef broth. Cole told me to cook this for you, she signed.
