All Chapters of The Rogue Alpha’s Claim: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Meanwhile, back upstairs, the battle was just getting started. No sooner had Ariel gone down to hide did they hear another bang on the door and the wooden entrapment burst open, flying off a far range like it was a light board.But Maddie was ready.She may not have taken this pack as her pack yet, but it was her mate’s pack, and she had a responsibility towards Toby, no matter how much she didn’t want the bond.She has been hearing their footsteps, and she counted about seven of them—a huge mistake on their part.There was no doubt in her heart that someone had leaked the information that the men had gone away, leaving the women, but they had no idea that the women they had left behind were warriors, save for a few.It was going to be an easy win, and Maddie’s lips curled up in a hint of a smile.Her blood was already pumping from the adrenaline that was coursing through her system. It had been long since she let out her animalistic side, and she had been wanting to beat up someone.

And wait, they did.The first thing they had done was round up the people that had remained. They had lost four women to the fight, and it took everything in Ariel not to puke as she saw their battered bodies.They had wrapped them in Saran Wrap, and Ariel monitored them closely as they went out and conducted a proper burial for them.They had buried them in the spacious garden in the back yard, and as they lowered them to the ground, Ariel couldn’t help the overflowing tears.She had failed her pack and, most especially, Kane.How was she going to face him when he came?“Hmmm.” Ariel shivered as she felt a weight on her shoulders, and she turned her head to the side to see Liza squeezing her shoulders. Her eyes were still moist and reddened from all the crying.“It will be fine.” Liza whispered to her, Luna, trying to give her comfort, but even she didn’t believe her words.“Luna? Psst, Luna, you have to make a speech.” Someone tapped Ariel on her back, and her mouth opened in a sile

“I don’t understand. Why should we leave? You all just came back from a hunt, and you have barely settled down. Surely you are not thinking of leaving so soon? When would you come back? What if they attack again?” The words gushed out of her mouth like a faulty faucet, and it was only when Kane’s hands reached to squeeze her that she was calming down.“You misunderstand me, love. I mean we all need to leave this place.”“I don’t understand.” Ariel shifted in her seat, not used to being called love in the midst of so many people. “Why should we leave? This is our home.”A little smile came to Kane’s lips at her admission that she had taken the pack as her home, but he shook his head.“No, I mean, we will all leave. Our location has been compromised, and even if we rebuild it, there is no doubt they are going to come back for us. One of the reasons we have been untouchable is also because we are invincible.”Ariel nodded her head as the picture became clearer, but she couldn’t imagine le

Ariel looked at the space he had once occupied, and she let out a loud groan. She should have followed him out, but she was reluctant to do so; hell, he had been the one in the wrong, and she wasn’t going to apologize for something that wasn’t her fault.She decided spending the time in her room was enough to pass the time, plus Claudia helped that it wasn’t so boring.Ariel had felt a pang of guilt as she called her best friend. Was she even worthy to bear the title? So much had been going on in her life that she had barely had time to call or even pick up her calls.But Claudia was literally the sweetest ray of sunshine, and she didn’t make trouble with the fact; instead, she had proceeded to give her a breakdown of how chaotic her life had been and, of course, a new boy.Was it a Claudia story if there wasn’t boy trouble?The rest of the day went by, and she was confined to her room as she had nothing to do.In between waiting for Kane, she had dozed off on the bed and was only wak

The full moon had come and gone, the effect it had bought had subsided, and the pack had gone back to their normal routine.All except for Ariel.Since they stepped into the new house, she had been haunted by a horrible dream, and falling asleep had begun to look like a chore for her.The sleeping pills Kane had brought for her had been doing their job, but oftentimes she would wake up at night, her night dress soaked with sweat, and she would lay awake until the crack of dawn.Sometimes, Kane would join in on her watch, but other times, he was too tired after working throughout the day and went back to sleep shortly.And today was no exception.Kane had promised to take her to see a seer if it persists till the weekend; apparently, those things exist in this world.Ariel folded herself into a ball, the comforting warmth of Kane beside her reassuring her. She tried to stay awake, but she could barely keep her eyes open, and it didn’t take her so long to fall asleep.Only it was short-
