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

"No, I won't" Ethel shook her head firmly in front of her parents. Her mother reached forward and grabbed her both hands. "You have to, Ethel, you have to help us with this, for your sister, for your family, for us and for you" Her mother said softly, trying hard to convince Ethel. "No, I can't mum. You just have to tell Alpha Carl that his mate had an accident and is in a coma right now. He would have Lucy when she wakes up. How... How can I act as a substitute mate? I... I can't" She shook her head. "You are going to be doing it. There is no other way out of this. You have to!" Her father's tone was completely different from her mother's tone. It held not even a single bit of softness or emotions for her in it. "It's not like you have a wolf side or a mate anyways and you getting any of the two is almost an impossibility. You should be grateful to get this chance" Ethel lowered her face and bit hard on her lower lips, trying to convince herself that her father's words did

"Heard from Lucy's family yet?" Alpha Carl asked as he walked into the elevator with his beta, Tyler following after him."Yes Alpha. Lucy would be coming over to your home tonight as she is now totally healed from the minor accident she had" Tyler replied. "Good" Carl remarked, his lips barely moving. He could not wait to finally have his mate with him, by his side and he was glad to the moon goddess, his mate was beautiful, smart and was pretty strong too. Carlos was satisfied with the capabilities of his mate and hoped he would be satisfied with every other thing about her. It was the custom of the River Alley Pack that the mate of the Alpha would stay with him for three months before becoming a Luna. During these three months, the Alpha would have to study his mate and ensure she is worthy of being the Luna of the pack and whatever was lacking in her had to be improved within those three months. It was also within that three months that most mates grew to know each other. Al

Alpha Carl pulled away from the hug as soon as he had made that discovery. His face was covered in confusion as he took two steps backwards, away from the woman that he had thought to be his mate until only a few seconds ago. Ethel felt her heart racing and this time it was more of fear than excitement. The way he was staring at her, his gaze that had suddenly gone much more intense than it was before. "Is... Is anything wrong?" She slowly questioned him but there was no response from Alpha Carl and the next second, Ethel's back had been pushed against the wall and his arm was to her neck, almost choking her. Ethel gasped as her back hit the hard wall in a single second."Who the hell are you?" He questioned, his eyes turning a bright red that scared the hell out of Ethel. "Wh... What do you mean?" She stuttered out, not willing to give up on her guise, not just yet. "You are not my mate, who are you?" His voice deepened but this time not in that hot manner that it had done previ

"You are useless, Ethel" Mr. Adams said to his daughter. Ethel lowered her face back to the floor, sobbing silently. "You see what you caused? I am having my toes chopped off! And it is all because of you! Don't you dare come back home! Don't you dare come back home or else I am getting you killed, Ethel!!" He screamed at her.Tyler pressed his lips into a thin line and glanced over at Ethel for a second, her shoulders shook lightly with her sobs. Tyler took his eyes away from her and looked at Mr Adams who would not stop ranting about how useless his daughter was. "Mr. Adams" Tyler called when he could not stand it anymore. "You should not talk to Ethel that way, not when you were the one who schemed all of this""Beta Tyler, you... " Mr Adams stopped talking and sucked in a large amount of air into his lungs and glared at his daughter. Tyler walked over to Mr. Adams and grabbed him by the arm. "Mr. Adams, let's get your toes chopped off. I will try to make it as painless as p

Ethel stared at the retreating figure of Alpha Carl until he completely disappeared from her sight.She still stood at the same spot thinking about the new rule. She was not allowed to go close to him.Ethel bit gently on her lower lip. It wasn't like she would glue herself to him anyways, after all he was not her mate. ."Anything the issue?" Tyler's voice came from behind, shaking Ethel back to life.Before she could turn back to glance at him, he was already by her side."Uhm... Welcome back, Beta Tyler" Ethel greeted."I told you already, Ethel. You can call me Tyler" he paused for some seconds. "Ethel" he added and let out a soft smile. It was clear that he enjoyed having her name roll out of his tongue. Ethel simply lowered her head without a response to him. "Was Alpha Carl being harsh with you just now?" Tyler asked. "Not at all. He only gave me a rule.""Which is....?" "I am not allowed to come close to him. All I should do is stay away" she replied. "That's not that
