IN THE ARMS OF MY ALPHA
A growl revibrated from his chest as my dress fell down and pooled on my feet.
I was completely naked and I could see my Alpha's eyes shifting into full obsidian black. He wanted me. And that was all that mattered tonight.
I let a seductive smile curve on my lips, hiding the nervousness I felt inside. It was now or never. "I'm all yours, Alpha..."
"Get dressed! And get out!" His breathing became hitched as his gaze swept all over my naked form.
I walked towards him, biting my lower lip as I slowly unbuttoned his shirt, ignoring his anger. He would have pushed me away if he didn't want this, but he didn't.
Instead, he moved swiftly and pinned my body against the wall, with my arms over my head.
"Is this what you want, Andrea?" His voice came out hoarsely. His breath was brushing against the skin of my neck, sending pleasurable tingles in between my thighs as he pressed his bulging front onto my wet core.
I stared back at him, my eyes boring deep into his. "I want you, Caspian..."
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
In a world where Alpha Females are pawned for the Claiming, being an Omega Female is considered to be a blessing. Andrea was born and raised as an Omega and has the freedom to choose whether to be claimed by her mate or be someone else's chosen. And so she thought, until the reality of her past came hunting her.
Alpha Caspian knew from the very beginning that he wanted Andrea, whether they were fated mates or not. But by the time he was ready to make amends for sending her away when she was 15, a secret from her past resurfaced.
But will he let her go this time? Or is she worth fighting for?

I was sitting on a boulder in a meadow, overlooking the whole territory that belongs to the Silver Moon Pack. I was just here with my father to visit his friend, but since I had nothing to do here, I decided to check the forest ground and ended up in this place.
To say that this place was beautiful would be an understatement. It was magnificent. It reminded me of the hillside in our own territory that I visit often. So even if this place wasn't ours, I felt solitude here. It felt like home.
My eyes were busy scoring the whole area when I heard movement from my back in the bushes a few feet away. Leaves rustled and small footsteps thudded against the ground. I turned my head back. It wasn't long before a small figure emerged from the bushes, panting from all the running.
Andrea.
Her big doe eyes widened at the sight of me, and I could see apprehension flashing in them. I offered her a welcoming smile, letting her know that she was in a safe place with me.
"Hey! Come here! Are you okay?" I motioned with my hand, asking her to come over.
"What are you doing here?" She asked with a soft voice. Her gaze was everywhere except on my face.
"Hiding from the world. And you?" I chuckled, but it was the truth.
"Hiding from Riley. He wanted to play board games with me, and I said I didn't want to, but he keeps coming to me." She let out a deep sigh before standing in front of me. "Is it okay if I sit there?" She asked politely, her finger pointing at the space beside me.
My eyes shifted to the space beside me as I inched to the other side to give her space. "Of course, why not? I don't own this place."
"Papa said you'll be the next Alpha, just like Riley and I must be respectful around you..." I just chuckled at her words and didn't say anything, just patted the space beside me.
"Where is Alia? I was hoping to play with her today." She asked as she sat beside me.
"We couldn't wake her up early and we didn't have time to wait for her, so we left without her. But I'll tell her that you looked for her and maybe next time she'll wake up early."
She just nodded her head, "Is it nice in your territory?"
"Yes, I love it there." My answer was from the heart.
"I want to go there... Will you take me?" She asked innocently enough that I couldn't help but grin at her.
"I can't just take you. You need to go there with your father."
She opened her mouth to say something, only to close it when a voice erupted in the air.
"Andrea! Andrea!" I knew that voice, and I just shook my head in annoyance.
Andrea's eyes widened as she stood up from the boulder and started pacing back and forth in front of me. "Riley is coming..." she said in a hushed voice, and I wasn't sure if she was saying it to me or herself.
"I need to hide..." she said, and the next thing I knew, she was already beside a big, tall tree and was trying to climb upon it.
"You know, he can still smell you, even if you hide up there," I told her in a low voice, watching as she attempted to climb with no success.
She didn't say anything, but she kept trying to climb, and when I couldn't bear seeing her slide down too many times, I stood up and rushed beside her.
I grabbed her small waist and pressed her body closer to mine. She let out a hushed gasp before she wrapped her legs around my hips and snaked her arms around my neck.
I climbed the tree flawlessly, which I've done too many times during my Alpha training. I didn't stop climbing until we almost reached the highest point, but it was far enough that our scent wouldn't linger on the ground.
Her face was so close to mine that I could smell her sweet cinnamon breath.
I was trying to control my wolf, Zion. He kept on growling in my head and wanted to surface. Like me, he was enamored by Andrea's sweet scent.
Being the firstborn of pure-blood Alpha parents, I shifted on the last full moon before I turned 15. It was an ordinary occurrence for the next Alpha, and it was the same reason that I had to go far up in the tree.
Riley was already 16 and the next Alpha of this pack. It means that he has a wolf as well and would be able to smell us if we were nearby.
Andrea's clutch on my neck tightened as the rustling of leaves and snapping of twigs were heard. It wasn't before long that Riley's form came into view below us. He was sniffing the air, and I had a gut feeling that he had caught our smells. I was just hoping it would be too faint for him to move on and search somewhere else.
Andrea was still tightly clinging to my neck until she lowered her head at the nook of my neck. Her breath was running on my skin, and I was doing everything I could to restrain myself from taking advantage of our position. She was only twelve. And yet, she was making me feel something I had never felt before.
I closed my eyes and tightened my grip on the branch I was holding while my other hand was keeping her steady in my arms.
It was then that I realized how perfectly she fit in my arms as if she belonged there as if she belonged with me.
"Is he gone?" Andrea's soft voice snapped me out of my thoughts and made me open my eyes. Her eyes were staring at me as if her life depended on me.
"Let's wait a couple of minutes before we go down." She just nodded and rested her head on my neck again.
I let out a deep sigh before asking her, "Are you comfortable or do you want me to adjust our position?"
"I'm okay, Caspian. It actually feels good here." Her sweet voice reached my ears, and I couldn't help but smile widely while my heart fluttered with happiness.

A year ago. AARON. "Oh, please Jacob, not him! Where is Beta Gavin?" Janna shrieked at her brother the moment I stepped out of my big truck. Her eyes were narrowing at her brother, and I was sure displeasure was flashing in them. "Beta Gavin is probably in bed, pleasing his mate. But if you want to disturb them, be my guest. I can drive you over to his parents’ house." I answered, annoyed, as I slipped my hands into my jeans pocket, watching as her squinting eyes shifted on me. "Aaron!" My sister Clair, also the Luna of this pack, gasped at my response, while Alpha Jake snickered before pulling his sister into a tight hug. "I could have explained it better, Janna. But the Gamma was right. So, unfortunately, you’re stuck with him." He answered in a coy manner. "Can somebody else drive me? Maybe he’ll throw me off somewhere." She groaned. Janna and I didn’t have a good history. We’ve been at each other’s throats since the first day we met months ago. I thought she was a spy or an
AARON "Why me? Can't the Beta do it? I'm not in the mood to drive." I groaned in my seat before throwing my head back on the headrest of the couch at the Alpha's office. I know it was a lousy excuse and seemed disrespectful, but my Alpha knew me better. I just talked like this, but I would never defy his order. "Aaron, stop asking why. You know the answer already." Clair answered annoyingly. She was sitting comfortably on the Alpha's lap, while the Alpha just looked at me, his lips pursing. "I don't have a choice, right?" I closed my eyes. I knew the answer already. "Fine. But just so you know, I'm already starting to lose my patience with Janna. She fucking knew how to push my buttons. It's not my fault if I end up abandoning her somewhere if she continues to irritate me." "Of course, you're not going to do that. If you leave her, you'll come back to pick her up, right?" My sister, the always goody-good Clair, would always make it a point to
JANNA. In just over a month, I would be turning eighteen. If I had a choice, I would rather stay with the humans, but like what my father kept telling me, this was my fate, and I could never run away from it. My name is Janna Marie Galhart. I am a shifter. And so are my parents. But we live among humans. My father, Jason Galhart, was supposed to be next in line as the Alpha of the Black Shadow Pack after my grandfather, but he gave up his right to become the next Alpha to be with my mother, Jessica Sawyer, his fated mate. In the beginning, he tried to stay away from my mother because he already had a Chosen Mate, the future Luna of his pack, and together they had a son, my half brother, Jacob. But as much as my father wanted to reject my mother, he couldn't fight the pull of the mate bond. In the end, he left his Chosen and his son and ran away with my mother to live among humans. And because of that, my half-brother, Jacob, became the next Alpha. It was only a year ago when m
AARON They just fucking don't look good together. My anger was rising, but I blamed it on her. She was fucking wasting my time here when we should have been driving back to the territory. I wanted to take her away from her boyfriend, but my bladder was already bursting. So instead, I headed off to the restroom. As soon as I was done, I wanted to go to her immediately, but there were two females who blocked my way and started flirting with me. If this was another time, I would have given in since I was a free man now, but my desire to take Janna away from her boyfriend was stronger than my urges right now. But she was nowhere around the bar when I came back. Fuck! Why did I take so long in the restroom? Instead of speaking politely with those females, I should have shoved them away. I could hear my heart thudding loudly despite the booming music and restless crowd. I panicked upon not finding her. If I lost her and Michael took
JANNAI felt my cheeks starting to burn at his words. Did I really moan his name? I won'tdeny I was thinking of him, because who would I think of when he was the one beside me? And he was gorgeous and all, and yes, he was the one beside me. I have a valid reason, right?But I swear I did my best not to open my mouth, so how could it be possible that he heard me?I held my breath as I sank into my seat, wishing for the car to swallow me whole. There was no way I would admit to him that I was thinking of him.We drove in silence until we reached my home, and I left him immediately after I told him he
AARON Jason already knew we were home last night. I sent him a mindlink and told him Janna was drunk and I was already tired. He didn't ask more and just told me to make sure the front door was securely locked before he cut off the mindlink. And this was turning out to be more bizarre. Breakfast was almost done, so it meant they were awake for a long time before they woke us up. Weren't they supposed to be alarmed that their daughter was tangled up with a man on their sofa the whole night? I didn't have time to think more about this since I followed after Janna as she rushed upstairs. My eyes lingered on her round ass as she half ran and half walked along the stairs in those short satin shorts. "Eyes off my ass, Gamma!" She snapped at me without looking back. "Then stop swinging it in my face!" I snapped back at her. She stopped and turned around so suddenly that I almost slammed my head on her stomach. My brows furrowed
JANNA I went down to the dining room and found Clair, Beta Gavin, and Alia in their seats already. Clair said that Jacob was still on the phone with another Alpha and told her that we could start dinner without him. I didn't see Aaron, but I was too shy to ask where he was, not wanting to leave the impression that I wanted to see him. I sat beside Clair. I knew this was Aaron's place, but every time I visited for two days every month, Clair would let me sit here. I was placing food on my plate when Aaron's voice reached my ears. I turned slowly to see him frowning, leaning his shoulder on the pillar of the dining room entryway. "Should I feel bad that I'm the only one always discarded on the dining table?" "Excuse me? What do you mean?" Clair asked her brother, as all eyes on the table were now on Aaron. He shrugged his shoulders and crossed his arms over his chest, but stayed on his spot. "First, Alia came, and I was thrown out of my seat. And then, now that Janna is permanent
AARONThe dinner went nicely despite the annoying start. Janna was in a chirpier mood after I lied to her brother for her. I don't know why I did that. I never lied to the Alpha and I don´t know if it would cost me something big later.But I don't think this was something I couldn´t handle.Michael might be able to get away from Jason and Jacob's wrath, but I won´t let him get away with it easily. I would come back for him, whether Janna agrees or not.After dinner, I just dropped by for a few minutes at the Alpha´s office to discuss my agenda for the week before heading back to my room. As soon as I was done with my shower, I dried off my body and slipped my sweatpants on. I was ready to retire for the night because it was a fucking long day already. And my body was aching for my own bed.But then it turned out to be impossible because I found Jenny sitting at the end of my bed when I came out of the bathroom. I forgot to change my lock code."Jenny. What are you doing here?" I aske
