Ascension of a Gamma

Continuous rapping on the door woke me up. I spent the night in Lexy’s room and she in mine, after a briefing with the pack yesterday.

My head throbbed from the hangover and the pounding sound only made it worse. Annoyed, I opened the door to give whoever is behind it a scare, but I was instead greeted by a cheery face in pigtails.

“Good morning, Sir. We regret to inform you that breakfast will be a little late. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience,” she chirped.

“Did something happen, dear?”

“Only a minor issue at the kitchen, Sir. We’re working on it as fast as we can,” she said like she was reading off a script and I chuckled.

“Tell me, dear. Would you like to play a game?” I said with a smile, a proper one so as not to scare her.

She stared at me for a few seconds, her eyes clearly saying yes before they directed their gaze on her shoes. Looks like there was more to this than one abused woman.

“Hmm. I don’t know if I can wait. My tum-tum is growling,” I said, placing a hand on my stomach and rubbing it in circles. Then as an added emphasis, I playfully said, “Grawr.”

She giggled at my gimmick. Glad it amused her or else I would’ve ended up looking stupid for nothing.

“Grawr,” she mimicked, her voice sounding cute it could melt anyone’s heart, then she giggled at her actions.

I squatted on my toes so I could be on a somewhat equal level to her and said, “What’s your name, dear?”

“My friends call me Mary. You’re funny, mister.”

Heh. I could be funny too. In your face, Lexy.

I smiled at her and said, “Mary, it’s a beautiful name for a beautiful girl. Do you want to play with me later, Mary?”

She slowly shook her head. “I’m training with my friends,” she said flatly.

“Training?”

“Mm-hm. Alpha said we should train.”

“And do you like training?”

She crossed her arms and pouted.

Heh. Little fighter.

“I don’t like training! I want to play hide and seek and swim in the river and eat ice cream.”

Cute little fighter.
