All Chapters of The Alpha's Rogue Mate: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

I blinked and there I was, a forest with trees so thick and high that I could only see the sky inky night sky above me illuminated by the full white moon. I stood in the middle of a circle surrounded by trees and the moonlight sprinkled onto me like a shower. It was beautiful.I reached a hand out to grasp at the light that would slip through my fingers, but when I lifted what I thought was my hand, a white paw came into my vision, soft and new. With a yelp that I intended to be a cry, I looked down at myself and saw that it wasn’t those stupid, vulnerable human legs that I stood on, but instead, I was supported by four powerful legs that had a strong and steady grip on the earth beneath me so that not even an earthquake could topple me. My tail wagged so fiercely that I thought I would take off like a helicopter and with a brief howl of joy I chased it, wanting to see how long it was, how fluffy it was, how perfect it was. I stumbled a little bit, not used to the new speed and weigh

"Yeah," I mumbled, pulling myself away from her before showing off my bandaged leg, "I didn’t manage to get very far."Annabelle looked at my ankle, her gaze quickly moving to my other one with the silver anklet. Her face contorted in a sympathetic expression like she could only imagine the pain I had gone through. I doubt she had ever witnessed a silver burn before and found myself glad for it because I wouldn't wish that upon anyone."I’m sorry you felt you had to leave.""It wasn’t your fault," I reassured her hoping it would be some kind of comfort because it was true.Annabelle had been nothing but kind and gracious towards me. She was one of two people in the pack who had tried to make me feel welcome and supported me despite the circumstances that brought me to them. She had tried to defend me against Poppy and her alpha even though I was just a rogue from a dangerous pack. She had done more for me in the few hours I had known her than anyone outside of my family had even thoug

I stumbled into Alpha Jackson before I could stop myself, landing face-first on his chest. I shoved him away after I regained my balance and glowered at the alpha. I took back everything I said about him not being an asshole. He was a prick."And why not?" I asked defensively, "Why let me come here only to tell me to fuck off?"He had the gall to look amused as he crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow at me, "Did the words ‘fuck off’ come out of my mouth?" He retorted and I hated the way he seemed to be laughing at me for it. "Isn’t that what you’re doing? I can’t shift and your entire pack is here so what are you so afraid of?"There was no way that he could hate rogues this much to do this. This felt personal, for all the times I’d spoken out against him, for making him question Annabelle’s loyalty and my god damned snarky comments. He was pathetic if this was supposed to be an attempt at humiliation and punishment. I wanted to go and run with the pack anyway just to see what he w

"You did such a good job for your first session!" Annabelle squealed as she joined me for a little bit in my house. She showed me how to work the TV properly and we put some music on for background sound to relax after the long day. I’d managed to get the stance pretty spot on to the point Alpha Jackson stopped correcting me about it. We switched after a little while so that he was the one punching and I was defending. His punches were powerful and precise. I ended up stumbling back slightly every so often from his pure strength even as I tried to stand my ground."You need to ground yourself," He had told me, shoving my legs with his feet to correct my stance, "Your centre of gravity needs to stay still and firm, I can’t knock you over if you don’t let me.""Yeah, but I’m sure you’d find it hilarious.""Maybe just a little bit.""Asshole." Annabelle and I sat on the sofa, cups of tea in our hands as a reward for the training and the rest of the day. After we’d finished training we

JacksonI hadn’t expected to see her like that. In all honesty, I thought she’d attempted to escape again despite the consequences of the night before and was more than ready to have her carted off to a cell. A second escape attempt would increase my suspicions that she had ulterior motives for getting away from my pack. What I saw couldn’t have been farther from the truth. Clarissa alerted me that the anklet had set off the signal that Elise was moving away from the pack, albeit slower than before. I assumed this was because of her injured leg and thought she must’ve been an utter idiot to try it again so soon. I didn’t see the need to shift as I leisurely walked to where she was located. I’d offer her no sympathy this time. In fact, I’d rip her leg off myself so that she’d be free of that anklet and I’d be free of her and wouldn’t be responsible for a rogue anymore.But then I heard it, a low, mournful, broken howl that scattered through someone’s throat like a desperate prayer.
