All Chapters of The Alpha and Her Destiny: Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

Chapter Two:Lycaon? He was just a legend told to the children to get them to behave, there was no way Kian was serious. As I stared at him in disbelief, he did look serious though.“I do not recognize you; I have never seen you at any of the Kairos. Lycaon is just a legend. You lie, wolf!”The Kairos was a gathering of all the neighboring packs who lived in this part of the world, it was how we stayed connected with news and kept up with friends and family who married into different packs. Nick startled me a little with his harsh tone, but I had to agree. There was just no way I could believe this.“Besides, “I added, “Why would he choose here in the middle of the nowhere anyway?”Kian nodded, “I didn’t believe it either, but there has been evidence of Lycaon and his followers trekking these woods. Especially around the area my pack and I had been settled recently. Because we are nomadic, we rarely a

I left Galan and Nick, leaving the living room, and working my way to the kitchen. My mind was reeling after all that Galan had told us.“The Council of Keepers are comprised of pack alphas from all over the world who have taken an oath to forever keep the location of Lycaon hidden from the rest of the world”I rummaged around a bit, looking for something to eat. I finally settled on an apple, not feeling like putting to much effort into dinner. As I munched, I couldn’t stop thinking about how Galen had also told us that he was part of the council. I frowned; just how much was being hidden from us all? No, I didn’t think that telling people Lycaon was real and a potential threat, at least not yet anyway. The last thing we needed was panicked pack members.“You need to eat something more substantial than that” Nicks voice broke through my thoughts, pulling me back into the kitchen and reality.“You haven’t ea

I was in the kitchen early the next morning, having tossed and turned all night I decided I might as well just get up. I looked out the window and saw the dawn slowly begin spread across the landscape, freshly fallen snow glistened from the night before, and I smiled. This place was beautiful. I turned my attention back to my simple breakfast of oatmeal and toast, sitting down at the table to enjoy them and the early morning solitude. Unfortunately, this also gave me time to ponder Nick and his strange actions last night. With an exhausted sigh, I ate my breakfast in silence. I wanted Nick to want me, but I wasn’t entirely sure that his actions were because he did want me, but because of Kian’s presence and my ill hid interest in him. After last night, I was especially interested in seeing a little more Kian, I was ok with casual hook-ups, but I was beginning to want more. The past few relationships I had had helped to clear that up a little for me. I wanted to settle down,

Nick POV: I followed my father and Janet’s back into the kitchen, leaving Katerina’s comfort behind me. I didn’t want to go back in the kitchen, to see Janet’s bruised and bloodied body upon our dining table. The not-so-distant memory of hearing her scream, the sound terrified and terrifying, still resounded in my head. Do too did finding her, a red patch among the white, newly fallen snow.  My mother had finished cleaning Janet and had begun dressing her in clean clothes when I entered the kitchen. Unwillingly, I glanced down, and had a moment where I could swear Janet was only sleeping. “Janet!” Her father cried, falling to his knees, and grasping her hand. His sobs where the only sound in the room, heart wrenching and broken. My father moved to stand behind him and placed a hand on his shoulder in comfort. “We will find the one responsible, Jack.” He promised. He nodded to my mother and with one final squeeze releases Janet’s father and beckon
