All Chapters of Whisper of the Alpha: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

*Ada*'Ada-bug,I am so happy to hear that you are almost back up to full strength! It appears that it was a good thing for your father and I to suck up our pride and send you off to Grandmoon Pack.You are sure to recover much quicker there, where they have access to more medical supplies. Though I am happy to report that there still haven't been any more rogue attacks. Woo!The rebuilding is going well, the reason why is not important.I love getting your letters…please keep me posted and I look forward to your next letter.Love, MomP.S. I haven’t heard much about Bryson lately…is everything alright?'The letter hung in my hand, and I sighed in disappointment. Once again, my mother hadn't answered any of the questions I had asked, while simultaneously asking ones that I didn't want to answer either.In the first letter from my mom, she had told me that her and dad were working hard and had almost completely rebuilt th

*Ada*I stood there awkwardly as he shut the door behind us. My body was hyper-aware of his hand resting along my lower back.It seemed to be shaking."Bryson?" I whispered his name, not sure what to say. "Uh, what can I do for you?"He didn't answer at first, he just stepped closer to me, taking a deep breath in, as if savoring my smell. I suddenly felt lightheaded and felt myself stumble slightly."Did you have to drink so much?" Bryson said with an annoyed sigh, but I heard the amusement in his voice too."I didn't drink that much," I retorted. "It's not the alcohol that is affecting me now…it's you."Oh my goddess, did I really say that?? Maybe Cole was rubbing off on me because that was so cheesy…and so vulnerable…and it was a lie.Because the alcohol was obviously affecting me…it was making me more vocal and open.At my words, Bryson had sucked in a breath and tensed in front of me. "Talk to me, tell me what you're

*Bryson*"Hey, Bryson!" A voice called from the end of the hall.I didn't have to turn around to know who it was, but I did anyway, knowing that it would be extremely rude to simply ignore her."Hello, Victoria," I said, as I watched her quickly jog up to me.I looked around and was thankful to see that there wasn't anyone else around for once. Victoria was standing before me, calm and collected, and I had to remind myself that it wasn't her that I was mad at, but my father."Please, call me Vicki," she said with a wide smile."How are you today?" I asked, trying to be pleasant as well."I would be better if you could explain to me why you don't want me as your mate."Well, there went that."I- uh- well--" I hadn't expected her to be so blunt and I wasn't prepared for it."I mean, I did win first place in training and I have the strongest team of warriors," she continued, unaffected. "I think it is obvious that you, or any male for that matter, would be blessed to have me as

*Ada*I groaned as I tried to stretch out my sore shoulder.Vicki had just got done throwing me to the ground. Ever since our meeting in the hall she had seemed to be doing everything in her power to make my life miserable."Is this what all the wolves from the Western Pack are like?" Vicki asked, stepping over me. "If so, no wonder why you guys are so pathetically small."Despite knowing that she was saying this to get a rise out of me, I couldn't help the anger that began to burn up my chest.Why had I even agreed to this in the first place? I didn't even have a wolf, it was dumb for me to train with all of them…but that hadn't stopped me growing up, and I didn't want it to stop me now.Plus, if I was being honest, I wanted to prove myself a little, all while keeping an eye on Vicki.When we had formally met the other day, I had gotten a weird feeling about her. And it didn't help that she was actively trying to steal my mate from me now. I knew that it was a possibility that

*Ada*Our footsteps echoed in the hall as we walked, emphasizing the silence between us.Cole had just asked me to be his mate, and this time it didn't feel like a joke. What kind of mess was I in?And what was going on with my wolf? I had gotten it at training, I was sure, and yet I didn't have any answers about it. I asked Cole, but he didn't seem interested in it.So now I just wanted to get to my room and wait for Bryson, because something didn't feel right.We finally reached my door, and I breathed a sigh of relief, that is until he stepped forward and began to open my door."Um, I can handle it from here," I told him quickly."Nonsense," Cole said with a wave and his typical smile. "I need to make sure you do what you should and rest. You did just pass out after all."I was going to argue, but then thought better. He would just argue back, and I wasn't really in the mood. I wouldn't tell him this, but even the short walk to my room from his had made me slightly light-hea
