The Heart Of Ice Alpha Chapter 41 : Attack Her and I Will Let You Pass
Rebecca gave us a dirty look as we walked up to the center area. Her groupies were behind her, looking more worried by our sudden presence than she did. They were in front of the entrance, not letting people enter. The elites protested at this as Judy and I watched. Comparing how many people entered the forest for the initial ceremony to how many were left now, a good chunk of the freshmen had been eliminated already. The center arena was bigger than I expected and totally enclosed, what was inside a secret other than the door leading in. Looking in I couldn’t make out what was inside other than the dirt floor. The door itself had two large mental portions that looked like they were swinging shut once the finale of the trial began - keeping us in until a victor emerged. I eyed the crowd to see who my competition would be…. It seemed like it wouldn’t be too hard. The entrance to the center arena was large but not large enough to get around the four girls who stood as a united front.

“You can’t go in there,” Debby said quietly and started wring her hands together. Judy gave her a nasty look and pulled her hand off me, standing between her and me. I chuckled, it was nice but unnecessary. I put my hand on Judy’s shoulder and moved to stand next to her, crossing my arms and standing up straighter. “And why is that? Trying to protect your precious queen bitch.” Judy asked in a sarcastic tone and the girl blushed, shaking her head no very quickly. She bounced on her feet nervously and looked around as she spoke. The rest of the crowd was gone at this point, either confident enough to follow Rebecca or too scared to stay. I saw the students who didn’t want to follow Rebecca taking out their phones to dial in for elimination. I groaned in frustration. Judy and I were some of the fastest competitors, but this was a waste of time. “No, no,” Debby started meekly. “It’s not that, it’s just that, um, we’re currently at the edge of the central area. Inside, there is this hu

Rebecca looked shocked, her red-haired wolf took a few steps back as I shifted. As I did, the all-encompassing and powerful feeling overtook me. Arna awoke within me and then overtook me. The people watching us let out gasps as my wolf appeared. My white fur shifted in the breeze as I bared my teeth at Rebecca. Her wolf was smaller than mine and more lithe, but I knew I was more acrobatic and skilled than her. Now that I could shift, this fight seemed easier than ever. I had already defeated her wolf-less. Rebecca’s followers looked scared and moved out of the way, and Judy started cheering me on. I lunged out at Rebecca with all the fury and anger I had been holding in these last few weeks. My experience at the academy had been hard and almost deadly, because of her. I didn’t understand why she couldn’t just let things be. Why did we have to start this feud up again at the academy? It was supposed to be a fresh start.She had gone out of her way to humiliate me and thought she was

*Atlas*I sat in my office with a small manilla envelope in front of me, Valerie had brought it in the day after I asked for dirt on Rebecca so she would be expelled. There was a large ‘CONFIDENTIAL’ in red lettering on the front. I opened it and shook the papers out of it. They were the chat records between Rebecca and Scott, looked like they were sent from burner phones. I scanned the conversation and felt a wave of anger filled my body. I slammed my fist on the table and let out a large sigh. I can’t believe I had allowed my mate to be around these two. The first thing it confirmed was that Scott and Rebecca had planned to trick Aria. But more than that…Scott was reluctant at first, but it wasn’t hard for Rebecca to convince him, offering him sexual favors. She was shameless to offer and he was way too quick to accept. He was happy to do it after that, I scowled at his spineless behavior. Rebecca says she needs Scott to get Aria to the coastal cliffs but she didn’t say what she

*Aria* Atlas had distracted me, he always looked handsome but this was different. The mate pull felt so strong now that I was in my wolf form. Arna wanted to be with his wolf more than anything. I couldn’t wait to be alone with him again, but I had to focus. The principal welcomed us, and I looked around at everyone else in the arena. This arena was smaller and more claustrophobic than the first we had come from. Much less natural as well. It was clear to me that we were going to be forced to fight. There was no hiding or avoiding conflict, you either eliminated yourself, were defeated, or were the winner… I was determined to be the winner of this trial. I knew I could do it. Especially with Atlas watching. I knew Arthur was next to me, I felt his shark gaze on me, and the two more injured-looking wolves were Rebecca and Scott. The pair looked better off than they were before, but still weren’t at full power. The only person here who would pose a challenge for me was Arthur. My

*Aria*! felt the heat of my opponent's stare from across the arena. It was just the two of us left now. I probably should have been nervous, but somehow, I felt empowered. An electrical charge ran through me, and I knew that it was Arna, letting me know that she was ready for the final battle. "Who do you think you are, little wolf?" Arthur growled, baring his teeth in an ugly snarl, "Just because you finally figured out how to shift doesn't mean that you are a match for me! You should just give up now, while you still have some dignity left!" For a moment, I questioned myself. What he had said was at least partially true. I had only just gotten my wolf. The others had much more time to practice fighting in their other form. I was sure that Arthur had spent plenty of time-fighting after he had shifted. Was he right? Was I making a mistake? That's when Arna answered for me. I could feel her bristling with rage at the idea that she wasn't strong enough to conquer his wolf

*Aria* Atlas beckoned to me with a wolfish grin, and I found myself following him into the tiny room. It appeared to be a study. Bookshelves lined the walls, and an ornately carved cherrywood desk stood sentry on the opposite side of the room. That was pretty much all I had the chance to observe, as Atlas shut the door behind us and pushed me against the wall, covering his body with mine. I couldn't think of anything but the feel of his hands on me, his mouth on me. Fire pulsed through my veins as he kissed me again and again. I had never felt this way about anyone before. While of course, I'd had boyfriends, it wasn't anywhere near the same. Atlas made my heart pound in a way that drove all other thoughts completely out of my mind. And it wasn't just physical. Atlas was kind and thoughtful, and somehow understood me without having to explain myself. I hated to admit it, but thoughts of him invaded my mind constantly. No matter what I was doing, I couldn't help thinking

*Aria* I woke up and sighed in contentment, stretching luxuriously. I sat up, realizing I was alone for the moment, and cast a glance around the room. I was still in Atlas's house, and now I was curious about my surroundings. I hadn't had time to notice them before, and remembering the reasons for my pleasant distraction made me blush. The room was sparsely furnished. While the king-sized bed was massive, not to mention incredibly comfortable with the robin's egg blue, Egyptian cotton sheets, it took up nearly the entirety of the room. The only other furnishings were an ornately carved chest of drawers across from the bed and gilded a full-length mirror mounted on the wall. Both pieces of furniture were decorated in a grapevine motif that matched the headboard and were lovely in their own right. However, it seemed strange that there wasn't anything more personal about my surroundings. It didn't seem as if the room's occupant lived there full-time or for very long. There wer

*Aria* Altas smiled at the question and gestured for me to come closer to him. Of course, I complied, and my wolf purred in satisfaction at the proximity. "It's everything that Rebecca's been doing to you for the past year," he whispered, "And I mean everything. Video of your fight when she used her powers to prevent you from moving. The chat where she and Scott planned to kill you and cover their tracks. Not to mention documentation of how Rebecca can control others using her mind. It's all in there. And truthfully, Rebecca is extremely lucky she's only being kicked out of school. If Rebecca were anybody else, she would go to prison for attempted murder!" "But how?" I asked, stunned and grateful for the help. "I mean, some of these things happened before I even really knew you! I don't understand." "From the moment we met, I knew you were special," he replied with a shrug. "And it was obvious that Rebecca was bad n
The Heart Of Ice Alpha Chapter 54: Wrath
*Atlas* Seeing Aria's grief-stricken expression broke my heart. I knew what she must be thinking. That I was involved with another woman. And not only that but someone who looked just like her. I felt terrible for putting her through it. I felt even more terrible about the accusations that were no doubt made against her. I could only pray to the Moon Goddess that Aria would understand and forgive me once she knew the truth. "Altas, just the man we wanted to see," Principal Higgins said with a tired sigh, gesturing for me to enter the room. Despite his comment, he didn't look excited to lay eyes on me. I guess I could understand his point of view. As far as he was concerned, I was the cause of this whole mess. And he wasn't entirely wrong about that. "Happy to be of service," I replied in a casual tone that belied my true feelings. I sat down in the wooden chair next to Aria. My love looked so terrified and sad, and I
The Heart Of Ice Alpha Chapter 53: Doppelganger
*Aria* I woke up the next morning with my head throbbing. Groaning, I tumbled out of bed and made my way slowly to the coffeemaker, wondering why on earth I'd had so much to drink the previous evening. While the coffee brewed I shuffled around the kitchen, finding and dry-swallowing two aspirin. I left the bottle out, realizing that Judy would probably need some when she woke up. After a few minutes, I poured the fragrant brew into a cup, added sugar, and took a deep drink. Once I was better able to function, I cast a glance at the clock next to the table. It read ten o'clock. I realized with no small amount of horror that both Judy and I had slept through battle class, which ran from nine o'clock to ten o'clock. "What time is it?" Judy asked as she made her way into the kitchen, pausing before the coffee pot to pour herself a mugful. I made a face and pointed to the clock, knowing what her reaction would be.
The Heart Of Ice Alpha Chapter 52: Accept my rejection
A slap rang out in the bar, which quickly fell silent. Everyone turned to look at Judy and Arthur, the hushed whisper of gossip filling the space. I looked around and then made eye contact with the girl Arthur had brought, who quickly looked down with an intense blush on her face. “Shut up, you weasel.” Judy spat out at Arthur and the lanky man seethed, narrowing his eyes at her as they stood face to face. “I am a Jackson, and you will accept my rejection.” The hushed gossiping around the bar got louder and people had formed a circle around the event. Some people had taken out their phones to snap pictures or take videos. Arthur started to look a little worried and his date looked completely mortified at this point. She stepped back and then ran out of the circle. The voices of people got louder, the lanky man groaned out and then slapped his hand on a table. The bar got quiet again. “I’ll accept your rejection…” Arthur started and then got a sinister smile o
The Heart Of Ice Alpha Chapter 51: A girl in his house
*Aria*I was restless, my leg bouncing under my desk as I tried to stay focused on the history lesson in front of us. The professor droned on and on about the history of the royal packs. I eyed Rebecca looking very proud in the front row and rolled my eyes. It was the third day of not seeing Atlas anywhere on campus and I was on edge. This was the second time this had happened and he had returned before, but after everything we talked about it made me angry that he would disappear now. The class was dismissed and I walked to the lunch hall with Judy in a daze, it was hard to focus on anything but Atlas being gone. The blonde girl was talking about something, another friend of hers it seemed, and I just hummed and nodded along. I was trying to distract myself from the feeling but I couldn’t avoid it; I was sad. All this week I had attempted to keep away from the way I felt by hanging out with Judy, studying whenever I had a free moment, practicing sparring - but it was
The Heart Of Ice Alpha Chapter 50: I am your Alpha
*Atlas* I eyed my mate with a smirk, I attempted to hold in a laugh at the way she looked. There was a simmering anger in her dark brown eyes and tension in her frown, she was obviously jealous. It wasn’t the same anger and fierceness she showed while fighting. That was very sexy, this was more cute. My mate was adorable when she was trying to act like she was not jealous. Aria shifted on her feet and then looked away with a huff. “I want to keep my distance from you,” Aria said and then looked down with a frown. “Is that actually what you want?” I asked softly and went to put my hand on her cheek, grazing it lightly. She leaned into the touch slightly before looking back up, her eyes getting heated again before she stepped back. I knew deep down this wasn’t what she wanted. Our mate pull was so strong, that it’s almost like I could feel her emotions myself. “Yes, it is,” Aria said firmly, and then her face softened. “It’s… inconvenient for you to be my professor and my ma
The Heart Of Ice Alpha Chapter 49: Self-Control
*Aria* I woke up and groaned when my alarm went off the next morning. I'd arrived at the academy late the previous evening, and it felt as if I'd only just gotten to bed. I glanced at my alarm clock, hoping that somehow it had gone off early, leaving me time to get just a bit more sleep. But It was five in the morning, time to get ready to go to class again. I started the coffeemaker in my room, wondering if anything would change now that I had won the championship. I had no idea if Rebecca would leave me alone or not. And what about Arthur? His very public defeat couldn't have made him happy. As I sipped the fragrant brew, I thought about Atlas. His handsome smile. His hands on me, his mouth on my body. The way he always understood me without saying a word. The way he made me feel as if there was nothing I couldn't do. There was no doubt in my mind that he was my true mate, and the thought of it made me smile. However, I frowned as I contemplated the danger inherent in
