Born For The Alpha

Her voice was soft and placating as she continued trying to calm him down. “It’s me, moon child, your mate. Please don’t hurt me.” She knew she would say anything to get out of the dangerous situation she was currently in.

Arda could no longer feel the movement of his teeth on the side of her neck and saw that he had gone still. Slowly, he pulled himself off her, letting her go. Then he took a step back from her, the crimson color of his iris turning back to silver.

Tears of relief filled her eyes and rolled down her face. Her heart was still thundering with fright as she kept staring at him. His features didn’t soften but at least he was not attempting to hurt her.

“You said I will be safe here.” she whined.

“This is the safest place for you.”

“Yet you almost...killed me.”

“Something inside you, calmed my desire.”

“And what if next time it doesn’t?”

“I don’t have the answer to that question. That is why we have the Elder.”

“The Elder?”

“He is our Diviner. Tomorrow, you will meet the pack and settle down here in your home.”

Before she could completely comprehend what he had just said, she saw him standing very close to her, her chest almost slamming against his. He could move so fast and unexpectedly and she wasn’t sure if she would ever get used to his supernatural speed.

Arda tried to control the slight tremors shaking her body as he put his finger forward and gently wiped the tears off her delicate cheeks. She shut her eyes for a moment, letting him finish. Still, she kept her eyes shut. It was his voice that forced her eyes open. She was so afraid of him.

“Open your eyes, Arda.”

For the first time his voice sounded gentle and the surprise of it hastened her response, her eyes, falling open. Was this truly him or someone else? She wondered, though in sarcasm. Who was she kidding? It was him, alright.

“Do not be afraid of me.”

You’re not making that easy, she wanted to blurt out but decided not to let any tension come before them. If he was being gentle now, she might as well seize the moment and have a conversation.

“What…what is your name?” she asked. “I mean, who are you exactly?”

“Gillow Rain, Alpha of the South of Homeland.”

“Are there other Alphas?”
