Ascension of a Gamma

Chapter 15 Favorable Choices

The big white spol of light coming from the flashlight lit the way. Here we were, walking back out into the woods, into a secluded area that was reserved for the Head Gamma. It was where my father and I resided before he passed away and I was taken to the mansion to live the rest of mi y days, serving the pack. I was forbiddent o return to our house, and I wasn’t sure if I wanted to, the place was too special for me.

I hadn’t seen it for two years, and with every step we took, we were getting closer to it. I prepared myself for this day but knowing I’d have to face the past as soon as I step foot inside the house made an uneasy feeling rise in my stomach. In a way, I was glad I didn’t have to do it alone; my best friend was with me

Unsure of what we were after that day, I almost cried when he called me his best friend. I held back the tears because he was the crybaby, not me. Though there wasn’t a single trace of the crybaby I knew in him. I guess we all changed over

He agreed to let my best friend speak to meo n the condition that we were within sight, and to my surprise, Carson didn’t. protest. He admitted it was Carson who told him about that nasty torture shack, growling as he did.

None of us wanted to have to walk past the mating werewolves so Alpha Liam had this crazy idea on how to sneak out of the mansion. We were on the fourth floor, where the guest rooms for his pack were, and he wanted us to jump out of the window. Again, Carson was on board with the idea. We would immediately be at the back of the mansion where no one would See us, and we didn’t have to witness the Sume scenes.

It was scary VCE exhilarating, and it was impressive to see him do such a feat. Of Course, I wouldn’t tell him I merely rolla my eyes at his handsome smirking face, saying Carson did the same thing Hffortlessly.

I was yet to accept that a wall-less Werewolf’ such as he was actually given a mate. I guess the Goddess was listening

The plan was to escape with iny mate, La use him so I could finally leave the pack. I I he was loving and caring, I’d stay with him. Once I wasn’t with the pack anymore, I’d decided that I’d live any life t o the fullest. If my fated mate would accept a failure like me, then I would faithfully stay beside him.

That was the plan! I didn’t know what I should do now. The promise was about to be fulfilled and I would finally leave, but i [I went with Alpha Liam, would it be the
