I pace back and forth outside of Bry’s hospital room, trying to get the courage up to go inside and talk to her.
How could I be so stupid and thoughtless to blurt out all the stuff about my trip like that? Hunter is right. I wasn’t thinking about how it would affect her.
I was just so mad that I wanted to get it off my chest, but I did it all wrong.
My head whips up and my eye lock on the door as it opens, and Dr. Wells steps out. She gives me a curt smile and then walks past me down the hall.
I take a deep breath. This is it.
Before I lose the courage, I march over to the door and grab the doorknob. Little sweat beads explode across my back as my hand trembles slightly.
This is our first real true fight, and I hate it. However, it all came slamming home when that idiot Zack said I made her cry. Usually, the only

ZACKWhy hasn’t Brayden come back yet? Is he still not healed?It has been several days, and I thought he would return as soon as he was feeling better. However, he still isn’t here.Did something else happen to him and he hasn’t let us know? Maybe he decided someone else would finish the project?My stomach twists at the thought of having someone else to work with.Pain suddenly shoots through my jaw and radiates across my face. I whip my eyes and my focus back to the warrior standing in front of me. He takes a few steps backward as he lowers his shoulders. “Sorry. You were distracted, and I went for it. Everyone always says to find the weakness in your opponent and pounce on it.”He bites his lower lip as he lowers his head slightly. “You seemed to be daydreaming or something, so I took advantage of it li

Brayden “No. I need to go back to Yellow Moon and finish my investigation. They have asked for our help, and I’m going to give it to them.” I give Hunter and Jacob a stern look as they lay on either side of me in bed. Their warm bodies press up against my body as another wave of pleasure rushes through my body. Jacob shakes his head. “No. I want another day with you. The doctor wouldn’t let us stay with you until you came home last night. One night isn’t enough.” Hunter slides a little higher up my side as he nods. “I agree. We need more than one night before you leave again. I’ve missed you so much and need to show you how much.” He leans down and kisses my bare shoulder, igniting another wave of pleasure through me. I quickly bite my lower lip as my core throbs. After last night, I’m surprised my body still wants more. But for some odd reason, it wasn’t as satisfying as normal. Even though I reached multiple orgasms, something felt a little off. My wolf has also

ZACK My eye twitches as I look across the conference room table at Brayden. He has the sparkle back in his eyes and a glow to his face. I should be happy. But I’m not. My focus drifts down to his shoulder. Clearly, he and his boyfriends had sex, but to be honest, I did too. Unfortunately, I couldn’t enjoy it like normal because Brayden’s face was haunting me the entire time. But that didn’t seem to stop Brayden from enjoying sex with his boyfriends. Wait. Why am I even thinking about this? I glance back down at the documents I’m reviewing and shake my head. Stop thinking about him. Remember, you are straight and aren’t interested in Brayden at all. You only want girls. My wolf huffs and shakes his head. He doesn’t have to say anything. I already know the truth. Brayden has been gone for only a few days, but I can’t s

HUNTERI sigh and look down at my full plate of food. My stomach growls, but I can’t bring myself to eat any of it.I want her back. If I had my way, we would have sent someone else to go back and finish the investigation.Also, I can’t quite put my finger on it, but something is gnawing at me. She was enjoying our multiple rounds of sex, but something felt a little different. Again, I can’t narrow it down to one thing, but something was a little off.I take my fork and lightly poke at the steak before I push the small chunks of potato around.Cough… Cough…I slowly look up from my food and glance at my mother and father. “What?”The corner of my mother’s mouth curves downward as she points to my plate. “Is something wrong with your food? You normally love steak, but you haven’t even to

BRAYDENI politely nod at everyone as I sit down at the table for supper beside Zack. The dining hall is full of people and chatter while the delicious smell of food drifts out of the kitchen.Zack quickly nods and looks away. He has been like this all day. Did I do something to irritate him? My wolf whimpers while I rake my brain, trying to find the one thing that I did to upset him. Unfortunately, I can’t find anything.My eyebrows furrow together as I stare at the side of his face.My thoughts are interrupted as Lindsey leans forward and looks around her brothers at me. “Hey, Alpha Brayden, we are going to have a small party tonight to welcome you back and to thank you for what you did with the rogues. Can you come? It won’t be right to have a party without the guest of honor.”I shake my head. “I don’t know. There i

ZackI sneak a look to my side at Brayden while I force myself to keep a straight face. His face is bright red and so are his eyes.My heart twists at the sight, but as my walls slowly crumble down around me, his shirt moves to the side and the faint outline of a bite mark on his shoulder comes into view.Anger instantly rushes through me, and I look away. He can cough and gasp all he wants. I won’t apologize for what I did.While I mentally grumble about him, I take a gulp of my drink. The liquor bites at the back of my throat, but I ignore it while my mind continues to wish I could take that mark off him. I know it isn’t a mating mark, but it still rubs me wrong. I would rather my mark be on his delicate neck.Wait. What?No. I don’t want to mark him. I want a woman with plenty of curves to hold on to.My rece

ZackI stumble through the hallway towards Brayden’s room.With his arm draped around my neck, I tightly wrap my arm around his slender waist, keeping him from falling. His lilac scent swirls around us and fills my nose.Even though I was mad at him earlier, when I’m this close to him, I can’t stay angry no matter what he does.A calmness always seems to wash over me, and then a warmth fills my chest. Why does he have this effect on me?My wolf wags his tail as I wobble back and forth. I don’t think I should have drunk that much.I try to focus on the long hallway, but my vision blurs and for a moment, there are two of them in front of me.I blink a couple of times and shake my head. Luckily, my vision clears and I’m back to only seeing one hallway.Brayden drags his feet. Occasionally, he will try to walk, but
Last Updated : 2022-03-21The Fake Alpha Chapter 31 - Who is Zack?
Hunter I barge into Bry’s house and march up to the bedroom. My father’s words still repeating in my head. Zack is an alpha waiting for an omega heir, which is exactly what Bry is. This can’t be happening. With my thoughts stuck on the various possibilities, my heart races as I storm into the bedroom. “Jacob! We have a problem!” He walks out of the bathroom with his hair tussled and wet. Water droplets glide down his muscular body and disappear into the towel wrapped around his waist. He wraps another towel around his shoulders and grunts, “What now?” I ignore his slight attitude and march towards the bed while I run my hand through my hair. “My father told me that Zack’s elders consider him to be an alpha. They say he is waiting for his omega heir.” I whip around and look at him. “Do you know what that means?” Jacob presses his lips together and takes a deep breath as he nods. “Yes. It means that there is a possibility that Zack is Bry’s true mate. We just have to

Zack Jacob walks into my office. “Hey, aren’t you supposed to be outside with all the pups? Why are you still in your office?” I look up and give him a look like he knows exactly why I’m still here as I motion my hands above my desk and all the papers. Hunter marches through the door, shaking his head. “We have stacks of paperwork sitting on our desk too, but we are here for your pup’s birthday party. I still can’t believe he is 10 already. It seems just like yesterday we were fighting with Bry’s father and throwing Alpha Trevor and his son in the dungeons.” I shake my head. “Why would you even bring up that time in my life? I was worried what that idiot alpha and his son were going to do to get my mate, while also trying to stop Bry’s father from executing his horrible plan. That is a part of my life I don’t want to remember.” Jacob plops down in a chair in front of my desk. “But that is also the time you made your pup, Zane. Why would you want to forget about finding

Bryanna“UGHHHH!!! I HATE YOU!!!” My face contorts in pain while I put all my might in smashing Zack’s hand. He is the reason for this and why I’m in this much pain. He needs to feel a small portion of what I feel.The doctor reaches up above her head and tilts a light. She looks at my face while she stands in between my legs. “You are doing good. It won’t be much longer now. The pup is crowning.”Crowning? I want him out! NOW!!!Another contraction slices through me like it is ripping me apart. I throw my head back on the bed and dig my feet harder into the stirrups. “UGHHHH!!!! I’M DYING!!!!!”I tighten my grip on Zack’s hand, my only chance of relief. He winces and rubs the back of my hand. “You are doing so good, honey. Our pup will be here soon. You can do it.”His calm voice irritates me, and I whip my head around to the side and glare at him. “NEXT TIME, YOU ARE GIVING BIRTH! WHEN YOU PUSH A WATERMELON OUT YOUR DICK, THEN YOU CAN TELL ME I’M DOING GOOD!!!!”A
The Fake Alpha Chapter 94 - The Verdict
BryannaI move around in my hard chair, trying to find a comfortable position while I rub my growing pregnant belly. My focus is on the various council members behind the raised wooden ‘judge’s’ bench. The court room is full of people anxiously waiting for their decision. I don’t know if I should be happy or sad my father survived. It was touch and go, but in the end, he pulled through. It delayed his trail until he was healthy enough, though. Zack wraps his arm around my shoulders and whispers, “Are you alright? Do you need something?”I shake my head. “No. I just need to find out their decision. I can’t see how it could be anything other than guilty.” My gut twists, and I know it may not be that easy. He still has some very powerful connections, but if he finds a way out of this, I will do all I can to make sure he pays for it the rest of his life. Zack kisses the side of my head. “It will be over soon.” I take a deep breath and let his amazing, woodsy scent fill my l
The Fake Alpha Chapter 93 - Battle Over
ZackMy heart hammers against my chest as a mix of fear and hatred consumes me. My eyes lock on Bry and her father, and my gaze snaps to her arm where blood is trickling down. A small pool of red liquid forms on the floor in between them. No! He is hurting her!A growl rumbles within me, but before I can bolt forward, Blake grabs my arm and whispers, “Not yet. This is a battle she has been building to for most of her life. She needs to do this on her own first. If she stumbles or her father gets the upper hand, you can then step in, but let her fight this by herself first.”I don’t want to, but I know he is right. She might resent me if I interrupt them now. My wolf jumps forward and claws at the front of my mind, trying to take over and not wanting to obey my brother. He doesn’t care if Blake is right or not. He just wants to protect our mate. I take a deep breath and push my wolf to the back of my mind while I keep my eyes on Bry and her father. Every move her father ma
The Fake Alpha Chapter 92 - This Ends Now
BryannaAnger courses through my veins. How could my father do something like this? I know he is behind the attacks, but knowing he is here after getting the top-secret intel about the new recipe has my blood boiling. It is to be expected, but seeing him leaves no doubt about him. Nothing is going to stop me from being there either when my father is captured and punished for his wrongdoings. Not even my pregnancy will stop me. As I run through the forest towards the factory, I rub my belly and silently pray the little one will work with me on this. I’m sure the baby would agree with me if it knew what my father is doing. My lip twitches up into a snarl, and I grind my teeth together. A wave of anger rakes over me, and when it reaches my feet, the ground rumbles. I ignore it though and continue running as fast as I can. My mind is consumed with my father and what he is doing and has done to Blake’s pack. And for what? Money? No. He did it for power. It is as simple as t
The Fake Alpha Chapter 91 - Intruders
JacobHunter and I march through Bry’s pack house towards the meeting room, where several of the attackers are being held, waiting for us to come and handle them. Who in the world would have the guts to do this to her pack? It takes a lot of nerve to attack any of our three packs. We have the best trained warriors, and they are evenly spread across all of our packs. My lip lifts into a snarl when we turn the corner, and the room comes into view. Hunter remains silent beside me, but he is far from being quiet. His feet pound against the hard floor and echo down the hallway, expressing his true feelings without saying a word. We burst through the door, and our feet stop right inside. My eyes widen and my mouth falls slightly open at the captive people as I stare at the last two, who I didn’t think would do something like this. Hunter’s steps falter, but his rage doesn’t allow his shock to overcome him. He balls his hands into fists and stomps his feet forward. Through gritted

BryannaZack holds my hand as we walk through the halls. “Baby, you should go back to the room and rest. You still look pale. The medicine is working, but you are still fighting with an upset stomach.”I shake my head. With determination in my voice, I grunt, “No. This is my father. I need to be in on it, too. There isn’t anyone who knows better than me what he is like or is capable of. I want to be there and see the look on his face when he finds himself backed into a corner with no way out with his world crumbling down around him.”He squeezes my hand. “But we aren’t to that point yet. We are still talking about what to do. You can go rest, and I’ll tell you everything we discuss.”I press my lips together, and my stomach churns. “No. I want to be there to help plan it.”I fight back the bile rising up. There isn’t anything that is going to stop me. I will be there. Zack sighs and shakes his head but remains silent. We walk through Blake’s open office door. Zack sh

ZackI expectantly look across the desk at Blake. “Is your person reliable? Are you sure this is going to work?”My foot bounces as my fingers fidget with the side of my jeans. I really don’t want to be here right now. I’d rather be back in my room with Bry. The doctors are watching her and have a staff hovering around her. None of them have ever come across a woman having as much trouble as Bry with her pregnancy, and it has just started. They have warned me they may have to put her on bedrest, which she has strongly argued against. But when I tell her that she might lose our pup if she doesn’t listen to the them, she quiets down. He nods. “Yes. Our little birdie is quite reliable. Don’t worry. Now, how is Bry? I didn’t get a chance to go to your room to check in on you two.”My fingernail flicks the seam along the side of my jeans as I slowly shake my head. “She is having a really rough time. Thank goodness, the doctors have been able to find a medicine which will ke
The Fake Alpha Chapter 88 - Not Feeling Well
BryannaI hug the bucket to me as my stomach lurches again. There can’t be anything left in me. I’ve been sick all day. Isn’t morning sickness supposed to only happen in the morning? Why is it lasting all day? Does the moon goddess hate me or something? My wolf growls in my head as she grunts, “You only need to watch out for your father. No one else would dare go against us.”I hope she is right. “Maybe.”My wolf shakes her head. “You still don’t know what we are capable of doing. Believe me, no one else will dare to cross us. Only your father is dumb enough to do it.”The corners of my mouth curl upward. “Okay. I’ll believe you. Can you help me with this nausea? I don’t have anything left to throw up. My stomach is empty now.”Her head and shoulders drop as she shakes her head. “Sorry. This is one of the few things I can’t help you with. If you get to a point where you can’t take it any longer, you need to call the doctor.”I sigh. She softly adds, “Believe it or
