All Chapters of Claudius, a Delta's fight for Love: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Claudius's POV Hardly any of us did well during yesterday's training. To say Noah was disappointed and angry with us, would be an understatement. We had to listen to a 20-minute lecture before we were even dismissed yesterday. And as a punishment for slacking off yesterday, our whole team had to run for 2 hours straight before training today. Before my mate died, and I took all that time off to grieve him, that run wouldn't have been so hard for me. But the death of my mate weakened me, and the very little training I did during my absence to grieve him and recover, made me weaker, and now I have even less strength, than even the other Delta 3 on our team. Toward the end, I was struggling to keep up. I was so far behind everyone. My lungs burned, my legs felt like noodles, and I felt nauseous. I was disappointed and disgusted with myself. How did I get so weak? I know I'm weak compared to other Deltas, but this is far worse than I've ever been. The 10-minute break before traini

Claudius's POV We both laugh as we grab our bags and run behind a tree to change. I don't know why, but the anticipation of running and diving into the water was so high. Maybe it's Noah's silly nature, that jokester part of him. Or maybe it's because our wolves played the whole way here. Niko was beyond thrilled we didn't lose our friend. Noah and I giggle as we try to change as fast as we can into our swim shorts. This little stinker gets into his shorts faster than I can of course, and I take off sprinting hot on his heels. Noah laughs as he races down the dock before leaping into the water. A few moments later, I do the same. My knees bend, and I push off and leap into the water. As I swam underwater I saw his foot. Unable to resist, I grabbed a hold of his ankle and tugged as hard as I could. I almost choked in a lung full of water, wanting to laugh at the shocked look on his face. He recovered quickly and came back for revenge. I never laughed so hard in my life, as Noa

Claudius's POV I have been a wreck all day. I haven't been able to eat. I have laid here most of the day, staring at that stupid spot. It's taking everything in me to stay in this house, and not go out there to stop him. Today is the day... He's leaving. Everything in me is screaming to go stop Noah and beg him to stay. I turn my head and look at the clock and my stomach drops, I whimper when I see the time. Unable to lay here and do nothing, I race out the door. I don't go to the pack house, instead, I head for the drive that leads to the main gate, and out of our territory. I stopped behind a tree and dropped my clothes before shifting and pulling them on. I'm just in time, and I feel the tears already running down my face as I hear the cars coming. I step out from behind the tree and hold on to it for support. I see the car coming and my heart pounds in my chest. I see his beautiful white hair in the passenger seat. His head turns and we lock eyes. I step forward as the t

Claudius's POV I couldn't believe this was happening. Just when I thought I finally found someone who I can love, and who would love me back, it turns out to be anything but that. My world fell apart when I realized it was never going to happen... No one is ever going to love me. "Why am I so unlovable? Why won't anyone love me back?" I said as the hot tears ran down my face. I could see the sadness in Noah's eyes as he reached up and took my face into his hands. "Don't say that, you are lovable! I would have loved to given you my heart. I wanted to! But I couldn't. Because my mate would have stolen it from you as soon as I found him. I didn't want to do that to you. If things were different and I didn't have one, I would have given you my heart." Noah said with tears in his eyes. I could see his lip trembling as he struggled to be strong for me. But all that only made me cry harder. Why is life so unfair? Why couldn't she give me someone like Noah, who would have accepted me, and

Claudius's POV I didn't have the energy the following day for Colton to show me around. But the day after that I did. It's been 4 days since I first arrived, and I finally have enough energy to leave this room. And of course, not once has the Alpha come to check on me. I don't even know if he cares that I just spent four days in my room, hardly able to make it to the bathroom, let alone walk around the pack house. "Yes, we actually have a pretty good size library, since most of the rooms don't have TVs. Why don't I show you where the library is first in case you get too tired." Colton said with a smile beaming on his face. I don't know why, but he seems so excited to show me around. "So Luna, tell me about yourself?" Colton said as we walked down the stairs. "There's not really much to tell. You already know I'm a dominant Delta 3. I lived at the Midnight Moon Pack since I was 16. I don't have a family... I guess that's pretty much it." "Oh!... Well, what did you do at your ol
