All Chapters of Chicago Alpha: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Clarissa's P.O.V.Hours passed, and I was still mentally a mess. I didn't understand why Brantley would kill his goddess-given mate. I am sure retribution for her death would meet Brantley head-on.It was a crime in the werewolf world to kill your mate, and from what I was told, the goddess didn't like that type of evil. Nothing in life had prepared me for what was happening. How was I supposed to be strong for them, for the wolves of my pack?Especially when I couldn't even be strong for myself. The door slowly clicked open, and a dark-haired woman entered. Her eyes cast around the room before slowly settling down at my shaking form. There was sorrow in her eyes as I gazed up, meeting her look."Hello Clarissa, my name is Nadia. They have sent for me to prepare you, but I need you to follow me, please."There was no fight left in me at this moment, and I felt defeated by everything. Standing to my feet, I moved behind her as she led me from one room to another. The cold, stiff body

Clarissa's P.O.V.Nadia had prepared my appearance, but no one could prepare me mentally for what I would be walking into. There was nothing that could prepare me for that. Imagine waking up one morning expected for your day to be as typical as it always was, and in the blink of an eye, it's something else.I always thought of destiny as something we created for ourselves, but I have learned that destiny is also something that others can help create for you. There was a time when I would have given anything to be that girl a man would do anything for. Right now, though, I wished I would have just been alone. I hated the fact that Antonio and the others were walking into a trap.There was no doubt in my mind that they were on their way or already here waiting to set me free. It was just a matter of time, and even though they were skilled warriors; no one is immune from death.Walking down the long white hallways, my eyes cast to the floor; I allowed the guard to lead me to where Brantl

Clarissa's P.O.VThere was nothing like being back in our bed. It didn't matter where a person could travel in the world; at the end of the day, being back in your bed was pure happiness. Antonio's strong arms wrapped around my waist and brought me closer to him as he inhaled the scent of my hair deeply. "Good Morning, beautiful."Smiling, I rolled over and looked at him, "Good Morning, sir." There was no use in trying to forget what had happened in Florida. My father and Brantley worked together to destroy my life and that of every other supernatural creature. Alyssa said that she had learned a lot going through Torrez's documents.It turns out Torrez had been working for years trying to turn the inner circle against us and anyone who wasn't a pure wolf. He was doing it for control. Infiltrate and take down the top from the inside. Antonio was adamant that, when we first got home, there would be no discussion of everything that happened, but Alyssa and I both knew that there needed t

Clarissa's P.O.V.Antonio's playful nature was a godsend when recovering from everything. My feet graced the steps two at a time as I jogged down the stairs, coming face to face with Leah."Can I speak with you?"Raising a brow, I nodded out of curiosity. There wasn't much conversation that had ever happened between this girl and me, and I didn't understand what she would have to say to me now."What's up?""I wanted to apologize for everything. I shouldn't have acted as I did, and I feel horrible." Crossing my arms, I stared at her as she continued apologizing, "I was under the impression that Diana was my friend. We used to tell each other everything, and when she left, she said it was because Antonio was hurting her and that he was cruel. I never thought she would lie to me like that."Hearing that Diana had portrayed my mate as a man that hurt women boiled my blood. How dare she taint my mate's image? Listening to Leah, I began to realize that she was played, and even though she ha

Clarissa's P.O.V."As I will ever be, I guess." Taking a deep breath, I walked out of the library, ready for the next step of my life.The sun had set long ago, and within that setting, sunlight came the tiny twinkling lights along the grass that illuminated a small walkway. The girls stood behind me and ushered me to follow the path, and with a smile upon my face, I nodded. This was it.My feet moved slowly forward, and my eyes cast into the distance. I knew that Antonio was at the end of this walkway, and I was making my way towards him and our future. There was nothing more that I wanted than to spend the rest of my life with him. I couldn't stop thinking about everything that had happened over the past few months. From the first time I met him; to the first time he kissed me. The way his breath felt against my skin and the look in his eyes when he was staring at me. Nothing but utter happiness filled my soul when I was with Antonio. I felt safe; protected. I would love him for al
