All Chapters of The Alpha's Weakness: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

[Cole]Cole stood like a statue, staring ahead with a dull expression, his eyes in a grim line. In his most boring voice, he sighed at the werewoman clinging tightly to him. "What, now?"He waited as Megan lifted her chin off his shoulder, then swung it around frantically as if checking for a sneak attack. Then abruptly, she untangled herself from him and continued scanning the area. "Megan," Cole exhaled heavily with his eyes closed. When his eyes opened again, Megan was turning around to face him, and Cole saw a mischievous smirk on her face. He frowned at her, "What are you up to this time?" "Nothing," she chirped and patted him on the shoulder. "See ya!" Her body swiveled around and she skipped off. With hands on his hips, Cole muttered in disbelief, "Werewoman." Ignoring Megan, his eyes started to search for the Dove. He had followed Patrick's directions and came this way, thinking that he could easily catch up with her. But after walking a distance, there was no sign o

[Dove]My eyes opened to a burst of sunshine in my chest. I couldn't stop thinking about last night. Staring at my reflection, visions of Cole kept replaying in my mind - his concerned face, passionate eyes and loving smile. My gaze trickled down to my lips. A finger reached up to feel those plump red lips and I recalled the warm pressure and roughness of his lips. A shiver of goosebumps came all over me. Somehow, knowing that Megan likes Jude, the air was fresh again and my chest felt lighter. The dread from the past few days seemed non-existent and I kept wanting to smile. For some reason, I also took longer than usual to get dressed. The final decision - my best white dress. It snuggled comfortably around my body, showcasing my nice shoulders and rosy knees and allowing sneak peaks of my womanly assets. After a few turns in front of the mirror and smiles of satisfaction, I made sure that my face glowed in the right places and then I strolled to the dining area, humming to a

[Dove]So my husband left me in the middle of the dance floor. I know men are creatures of few words but this is too much. Moving away from the dance floor, I contemplated whether to throw Cole over a cliff or remove Beef Wellington from our meals. Megan came into my view. She was staring at something - or someone - and her face was clearly upset. Following her line of gaze, I saw Jude in a dark corner, hugging and kissing another woman. My eyes swung back to Megan and she turned and ran. I followed her. I found her outside the village, sobbing quietly. Despite her effortless threats, I stayed with her. We chatted for a long while on the scratchy grass in the comfort of the glowing round moon above the stretch of distant mountains as waves of the night cool breeze flooded through us. I thanked her suggestion of playing a fast song after two slow ones to keep the celebratory mood; she confessed that she was using Cole to get back at me because she thought that Jude liked me.

[Dove]As a punishment for breaking the rule of stepping into forbidden grounds, I had to help with the harvesting and help out at Connie's B&B. Cole didn't tell me this - Megan did. She was my new 'escort' - Owin had left the village for his political duties and Jude needed to increase training for the young warriors. As for Cole, we were back to square one - he was missing in action again. I have not seen him for a week. "Okay, give me that." A toned bronze arm slithered into my blurry view and removed the beet from my stagnant hand. I blinked the mist away, looked up and smiled at a bemused face. "Cry or smile - choose one," Megan shook her head and threw the beet into my basket, "don't do both - you look scary." I returned to the record book and scribbled a note about the unusually small beet that just went into the basket. Megan sounded so much like Cole that it felt like he was next to me. The thought reddened my eyes again. I turned from her and lifted my chin to

[Abe]"The world is unfair." Abe said to his audience in a low impassive voice, "so it's up to us to make it fair." He paused and an evil grin spread across his face. "We're going to take down the Whispering Moon Pack and divide their lands fairly between us." The Alpha of the Silver Claw Pack, a lanky lad with a messy undercut, revealed a condescending sneer and said, "You do know that Cole's mutt has been sniffing around." "I know." Abe was slightly irritated by the tone. The young Alpha creased his brows in contempt, "Cole's an idiot for letting that smiley thing attend all meetings for him. Are we a joke to him?" Liking what he saw, Abe raised his nose with the air of a king and smirked, "He has a wife now so he'll be busy." "That silver hair freak?" The young werewolf threw his head back and laughed. Wiping the tears in his eyes, he said, "Your plan is wicked, Abe. That'll teach him not to turn his back on the Goddess.""Shushed!" Abe glanced around warily for an
