All Chapters of The Alpha's Revenge: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Aaron Rogers made a gesture with his gloved hand. "Bring him forward," he announced.His assistant, Simone, tugged at the chain in her hand and the man before her stood. He was a tall fellow dressed in tattered clothing and his shaggy hair was matted to his head. It was dirty with leaves and dry twigs. He glanced warily at Simone before turning to Aaron. He put his bony hands together and said in a deep, hoarse voice, "Please, I beg of you. My children. Set them free.""Name?" Aaron enquired, ignoring him.He gulped and licked his cracked lips. "Sam."Aaron wrote it down on his ledger and underlined it. "How many in your pack?""We are not a pack," he answered, shifting from one foot to another. "We live in these forests by ourselves. We have a small cabin. We don't bother anyone.""How many in your immediate family?""Please," the man said, nearing the table. Simone pulled the chain forcefully and the man stumbled and fell to his knees. Aaron put a hand up and she stopped jerking the

"I-I..." Kiera trailed off, looking into his eyes.He patiently waited for her to finish her sentence. She couldn't find her words. She felt embarrassed for stammering and she couldn't help but wonder what he thought about her.She had to get a grip and fast."I'm—""Shaken up," he finished for her. She nodded gratefully. Yes, that was one way of putting it. Behind him, the employees were returning to the store. She looked at the mess the guys and caused and she groaned helplessly."I could call the police," he suggested. She turned to him again. "They can't have gone far. And who knows? They might have a record."She thought quickly. Did she really want to spend the rest of her evening in a police station? She was exhausted as it is and she had a fair amount to drink. If they tested her and she exceeded the permissible limit by even a little, she'd be arrested for misconduct. They might even blame her for the whole incident. So she shook her head. "No, I think I'll go home. I'll figu

Kiera and Mikael left the station side by side.She felt better about filing the complaint. The police reassured her that they would do anything they could to find the men who harassed her. Mikael was a good witness and the great part was that he remembered some of the men's faces. Two portraits were made. It was good progress."I can't thank you enough," she began, "Thank you for taking the time to help me with this.""I'm happy to help," he said, flashing her his bright smile, "and please, do not hesitate to contact me again.""I won't," she replied, blushing. Spending the day with him had made her heart grow fonder. Yes, she was aware that she had only met him the previous night and that falling in love with a stranger had its complications but she couldn't stop. She felt strongly toward him and perhaps it was because he saved her when she needed it most but also because he showed up at the most opportune moment. She wasn't with Jared anymore and she was looking for someone to spen

Kiera woke up in the morning somewhat disoriented. Sunlight was streaming through the window she forgot to close last night and the sun was in her face. As much as she loved the sun, she hated it when she didn't close her curtains. She got up from bed and closed it although she usually opened it in the mornings. She checked the time on the alarm clock on her nightstand and saw that it was a little past ten. She was filled to the brim with optimism after Mikael's call but now she was hesitant and a little concerned. She had neglected her work for too long and she knew that sooner or later, she'd be let go if she didn't do something about it. She slacked off for too long. She was supposed to make the most of the week to really catch up but she had dinner with Mikael. She couldn't and wouldn't cancel on him—she was eager to see him and nothing would stop her, not even the threat of losing her job, but she had to get a grip on herself and not spend the afternoon thinking about him as sh

"What?" Jared asked. "Get out," she repeated. "It's over between us. Get that through your head. It's. Over. I've finally realized that you were never good for me. I was an idiot all along. You knew it, she knew, hell, everyone knew!""You don't know what you're talking about," Jared insisted. He looked at her up and then down and took all of her in. "You're not making any sense. I don't even recognize you!"Kiera looked at Kane. He looked ready for just about anything. She contemplated what to do. She could ask Jared once again to leave or she could nod at Kane and let him do the dirty work. Kane was more than capable of escorting Jared out. She honestly still couldn't believe that he was in her kitchen saying such preposterous things to her. She couldn't wrap her head around the fact that she had told him to leave and that she meant what she said. She meant every word.Wasn't it funny that he showed up just when she was prepared to move on? She hadn't expected to see him ever again
