All Chapters of The Alpha's Guardian: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

*Ali POV*  A pounding on my door jolts me out of sleep. The cool air in the room envelops me as I toss away my blankets. I quietly curse whoever is at the door. As I move around in the darkroom, I rely on my memory and senses to guide me through the pitch black. The end of my bed makes way to a clear path straight to the door. If I can make it to the path, I can make it to the door with no lights needed. “Oof-” I stumble forward over fabric that I know had not been there before as I lurch forward, hands reach out to stop my descent, but I slip through them, landing roughly on what I presume is someone’s stomach. “What the fuck?” The groggy voice of Alpha Wade says. I freeze in surprise as I scramble to find my footing. I continue to slip on the silky sleeping bag below and the knocking on the door raps louder.  “Ali?” Mason whispers. The door creaks open and the lights flood through the small opening landing on me, str

*Wade POV* Her anger crashes like waves in a tumultuous sea, violently slamming into my barrier. It becomes almost painful trying to keep it up, but I refuse to take it down. Instead, I throw all my thoughts into the tingles on my arm as I hold her away from Frank. A laugh breaks from my lips at everything unfolding. It’s not appropriate to laugh, I know. But I can’t help it. She looks so damn cute when she is angry. “Calm down I whisper in her ear” she just looks up and scowls.  I focus again on Trudy. Trudy, who is so desperate to be something she isn’t destined to be, that she destroyed her own mate and poisoned my entire pack. This woman has no idea of the suffering she will endure in these cells. Especially after the news Francis just got. After 4 years of trying to get pregnant, Sammy was finally able to tell Francis that he was going to be a dad.  That excitement was short-lived after the doctor informed them th

I’m up early as per usual, sitting at my spot at the kitchen counter with my gear on and ready to go at a moment’s notice. Wade has been up and sitting in his office waiting for Alpha Liam to arrive. I nervously chew on my nails, waiting for the knock on the front door. I haven’t seen Liam since I was 18 years old. He was my very first mission.  The only thing that rivals his fighting abilities is his ego. Liam is known throughout the werewolf community for being the fiercest warrior on the continent. His pack is strictly trained, eats only certain foods, and runs 50k daily after their shifts. He is frightening and sexy and the only man I have ever fallen in love with. Even if he wasn’t my fated other half. No Guardian bond break has hurt as much as ours did.  “Ali!” Wade says, waving his hands in front of my face. “Sorry. What?” I ask, and he frowns at me. “You seem worried,” Wade says as he leans on the counter acros

*Wade POV*Having Liam here is supposed to be a relief. Instead, I feel like I’m in high school fighting for the attention of the popular girl who only looks my way because she has to. Ali is her own person. I have no claim on her. Other than this bond that I’m realizing is making my life harder than it needs to be. My head feels like a war zone of emotions that aren’t mine vs emotions I shouldn’t even be having for someone I can’t have. That’s what makes it even worse. Wanting to lay claim to her, to hold her close and make her mine, but knowing she can’t ever be. Unless, by some twisted fate, she turns out to be my actual mate. But until then I get to watch the man she loves relentlessly throw himself at her. To top it all off, he is the Alpha of the most prominent warrior pack. I’m just some weak lowly Alpha who needs protecting. “Alpha” Ali calls to me softly.I shift in the chair to look at her. She is propped up in my office so I can work and she can be near me if I need her fo

I’ve been wanting to check out training since Wade hinted about Liam being the reason Mason was so beat up. But where Wade goes I go and where Wade stays, well I stay there too. Wade has been in his office answering calls, making calls, and researching all sorts of things, again. It's interesting how one minute it can seem like everything happens at once and there is almost too much to handle and then the next is so dull I could poke my eyes out. “Yes. I agree, Alpha Nick. Yes, I am excited to meet with you as well. We will see you tonight.” Wade says into his phone. He ends the call and slumps into his seat. “Everything ok?” I ask him honing in on the dark circles under his eyes. “Yeah. Finally making some headway. We are heading to speak with Alpha Nick tonight over dinner. He is about an hour and a half drive from us.” “Who is going to keep the pack in order?” I ask him. I know us leaving, even for a few hours will make him worry about leaving his pack in the hands of Liam. “F
