All Chapters of Subduing the Alpha - Hetro Version: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

I hadn’t meant for the kiss to go quite this far, but the way her body responded to me had mine reacting as much, if not more than hers. Kyla was utterly oblivious to the mate-bond between us. I realised this quickly enough, but that didn’t mean I could hold back. My emotions over losing my beta were muddying my thought process, but worst of all was the bond making me think this was a great idea. A fabulous idea, an idea so grand that nothing could go wrong. It wasn’t right, but it wasn’t wrong either. “Oh, ah, Moon,” Kyla moaned under me as I focused on her neck, where I could quickly tell her weakness was. That she was getting into this was a good sign and the sound of her pleasured moans made me even needier of her touch. As I drifted my fingers up, I slid them under her top and along her soft, round chest. Her breathing was rapid and her heart was pounding so hard that I thought it might leap out at any moment now. I lifted my head away fr

I have to admit, I never thought I’d have to force myself to hold back in wanting my mate. I could hear every sound she had made in there, and part of me wanted to burst back in and take her. Yet I knew that would only scare her, so I resisted any urge I had. Spending the night taking care of myself, and cooling myself down in the shower, I finished the rest of the night wishing Kyla was laying next to me. It's still too soon to wish for such things to happen, and it's a shame that I can't have her beside me now. However, I want her to settle into her new life before I claim her as my mate. Anything less would only make her resent me, perhaps even reject me later on. That is not a risk I would ever be willing to take with her. She is far too precious for me to ever become so selfish. Despite all that, I yearn for her like nothing else. As soon as the morning sun hits my face, I can’t help but rush myself to get ready for the day ahead of me. Though I’m not ge

So much has happened since my luna bowed down to Cedric and this pack. I’ve gone unnoticed as Kyla’s beta so far, but only because I know exactly how to blend in well enough. He knows I’m a warrior, but he hasn’t paid me much more attention besides that. That is the only reason he didn’t slaughter me on the spot, I imagine. There would be no way he would accept another beta in his pack. Especially not one that can rival his own for the spot. He could have lowered my rank, but the mistrust he would have over me wouldn’t be worth it, I imagine. At least, that is my take on things. I could be wrong, of course. Either way, I don’t need to be his beta. The only loyalty I have is towards Kyla. That woman has probably gotten herself into so much trouble since we were forced here. I hope they have not hurt her too much. She was forced into the luna role at the loss of her parents, but she is still very gentle and inexperienced. Plus, no one should ever mark that cute face of hers. If someo

At first, I’m not sure what to make of him kissing me. He’s been my friend for so long now and has always been reliable, but has he always liked me this way? He had said nothing to me before, so why now?The better question is, why am I kissing him back? I pull him closer, allowing my fingers to brush through his hair. We have always been attached to the hip ever since Dereck joined my pack. I have to admit that his loyalty, devotion, and kindness have always motivated me and kept me going.I really don’t know what I would do without him. But does that make it ok for us to make out like this? We are not destined mates. At least, as far as I know. I’m sure he would have told me if we were.The truth is, I don’t really know Dereck’s past before he joined us. He never speaks of his old pack, not even to me. I know they’re gone, but the how and the why? That I don’t know. I saved his life from another werewolf, but if

Almost a week has gone by and Cedric still hasn’t returned. Dereck snuck in a couple more times since then, but we haven’t exactly had alone time, so nothing more has happened between us outside of a few kisses. Not that I am in any rush to sleep with anyone.The only issue is that I’m still stuck in this stupid room until he gets back. The cage might be gilded, but it is a cage all the same. I just wish I could have a small amount of freedom, but I guess that won’t happen. I might be stuck in this room forever.That’s not a situation I want to be in. Ever.As I fall back onto the bed and wait for lunchtime, I can’t help but wonder if I shouldn’t try to barge past the omegas if they bring my food this time. Or if I shouldn’t get Dereck to help me fight off the guard and we both try to make a break for it.Something has to change. I just need to figure out the best option to bring about that change.
