All Chapters of The Destined Alpha, The Fated Rogue: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

"Well, this is awkward..." I swallow slightly as I watch Thane run his hands through his hair. "I was coming in here for a shower, so, Thanks?" He chuckles. I quickly grabbed the showerhead whipping around on the floor; then, I turned the water off. "Sorry, Atticus is in my room so-" "I know, you don't have to explain yourself, Evette," Thane says and starts to grab a towel to clean up the water mess. I could sense something was bothering him; it seemed like he wasn't very present. His body was tense, and he didn't glance at me, which was weird. "Thane?" I grab a towel and wrap it around myself, "Are you alright?" "Yeah. Why?" "You seem distant." I then try to sneak a peek into his thoughts, but I'm immediately blocked out, "Wha-Thane?" He turns his head away from me. "I thought you said you were letting me read your thoughts now?" I asked, feeling slightly dishearted. "I shut you out for a reason. So don't take a perso

Once again, I have opened my big fat mouth even though Thane didn't seem affected by it. I might have cost him a friendship. I really should think before I vomit my thoughts out. I rub my arm, feeling the tinge of guilt. "Damn, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that. I barely knew her." Thane puts a hand on my shoulder, "I'm not going to tell you not to say anything. But, what you said got me thinking. I think once Ethel cools down; I'll try and talk to Lilia myself." "I just-It felt so wrong to me," I couldn't get the sour taste out of my mouth. Being in this world was still new, and it was starting to get to me. I began to question if I could be comfortable here. "Also, you don't have to think about having pups with me at this very moment. I'm not going to make you do that. Yes, it is something I have wanted but, I respect you, and I don't want you resenting me because of it." I smiled at Thane's words; I had to admit it made me feel

  Flash-Back Lilia       I wanted to be like Khione. She had friends and nice clothes, she even looked better than me. Khione would give me her latest wears, and she would even let me hang out with her friends even though they didn't like me.       The shy girl, who never spoke that much. But when I was with her, everything felt better. I wasn't tiny; I wasn't left out until the day she found her mates.       Atticus and Thane. Now she's left me and treats me like trash.       "Hey!" I'm pulled out of my thoughts.       An

I've always been a fast runner, so it was easy to outrun Atticus. But as I turn the corner run smack into someone's chest. "AH!" I fall on my butt, "I'm sorry-" I start to as,y but stop as I look up at his smirking dumb face."How did you-""I know this house like this back of my hand. I grew up here, remember?" Atticus says as he holds out his hand to help me up."Man, I thought I had you beat..." I said."You did for a second until you took that last turn."I pause for a second, "Um, am I just losing my shit, or did something happen back there?"Atticus searches my eyes, "I think you just experienced what we call Moonlight Madness. It happens before Moonlight Festa. I didn't think you would have such a reaction to it, though; it's kind of cute.""Is that the reason I wanted you to chase me like a damn rabbit?" This felt so weird. He chuckles, "For the thrill, yeah," Atticus was all smiles, and it was annoyi

~Evette~ I wake up feeling a heaviness in my body, like I'm full of lead, "Ugh," I place my hand on my forehead, trying to recall what happened. But unfortunately, all I could remember was a piercing pain in my back and around my neck. I'm surprised to find feathers everywhere and empty sacks of pillows as I look around. "What the-" I stop in the middle of my sentence, wondering what went on while I was passed out. The giggling sound of children comes from behind the door. Thane suddenly comes through, and behind him, Atticus has a kid attached to his leg. "Geez, your grip is like a gorilla glue," He says, chuckling; the little boy can't stop laughing, thinking it's funny. A couple more kids rush in wanting to play with Atticus, "Ugh no," he hangs his head in defeat, "Not you too!" "Play with us!" They chant, running in circles around him. I can't help but laugh myself, knowing that Atticus wasn't enjoying himself.  "You wanted to know wh
