The Special Alpha Twin

Chapter 10

Mia POV  

We had been running for days now, my fitness is slowly getting better. All this running was helping me with my stamina, I started to notice that I was not struggling to breathe as much compared to at the beginning. We were now taking less and less breaks and could go on running for longer. I was forever grateful and in debt to Chase for bringing me with him to escape the pack. He was truly a blessing in disguise.  

Flashback  

We had run until we had found a cave to rest. We had just escaped from the pack and had been running for hours. I was already so grateful for Chase taking us with him and escaping. He said that we should get some sleep as we would have a long day the next day running and making sure no one was on our trail. I did not really feel rested. I was scared to sleep, I feared the unknown, I did not know whether to trust him or not. Part of me felt that I could trust him and part of me felt that I could not. It was an ongoing battle of my internal feelings about how I felt. That was when I first heard this unknown voice “...trust him.” I tried reaching out to the voice, “Who are you? How can I trust him?” All I got back as a response again was “trust him.” After that, I did not hear from the voice.  

Morning came too quickly but we had to be on the move soon, after last night and hearing what the voice had said, I knew Chase was our head warrior. He was explaining to Lucy and myself that we would be needing to change our appearance and we will be heading to human towns. We also needed to find a witch that would help us mask our scent long term if it were possible. That was when I had the idea. It was always a dream for me ever since being captured, I could go back to doing some training. I had remembered vaguely when I used to train with Jason, my twin. Alpha James never let me train since I was captured. That was when I decided to ask Chase to train both Lucy and me. I looked at Chase and then at Lucy, Lucy nodded at me, agreeing with what I had asked, and we could see Chase pondering about my request. Finally, after some silence, he agreed to train us. He was laughing when he said that doing all this running will help us with our stamina and our overall fitness.  

End of Flashback 

I could not agree more Chase’s statement about our stamina, even I could see the improvements with my stamina. I was getting excited to be able to learn more and be able to defend myself. The other thing I could not wait was to meet my wolf, I do not know when she will appear though, it is getting close to my 18th birthday. I mean do I even have a wolf, after all that torture I had endured since I was kidnapped at the age of 6. I shuddered as to what would happen to me if that was the case.  

We finally reached a small town, it was called Beachtown. We decided to head to a local shop that were selling some clothes and other things that we could change into. I picked out a pair of jeans, some workout leggings, shorts, and a few t-shirts. I also bought another pair of trainers considering all that running we had done. Lucy also bought similar things to me as well, but she had bought some dresses as well. I did not want to buy any dresses because of my scars that I received over the years.  

I remembered the early days when I would be restrained in silver handcuffs, it used to burn me, I had my back exposed and used to receive 20 lashes, a whip laced in wolfsbane. As I got older, the lashes increased. I shuddered reminiscing what happened to be in the past.  

After we bought all our clothes, we went towards the town centre to spend a few nights in a hotel whilst we were looking for a place. Chase had gone out to view some places, whilst Lucy and I stayed in the room. “Lucy, I wanted to say thank you so much for taking care of me the entire time I have stayed with you. You did not need to do that” I said to Lucy. “You are welcome, Mia. I felt obligated to look after you, I do not know why, but I feel a pull towards you to look after you” Lucy responded to me. “That is weird, I wonder why you would feel a pull towards me. We should also ask Chase this when he gets back” I responded. Lucy nodded her head and with that she gave a short yawn. “I think we both need a nap with all the running we had” I suggested to Lucy. She nodded in agreement with me. We both got into our respective beds and decided to take a nap until Chase got back. It did not take me long until sleep took me.  

I woke up to some noises by the door, like someone was trying to get in, I was alert and crouched behind the bed. I crawled over to Lucy’s bed and shook her awake and put my fingers to my lips to indicate to her to be quiet. Soon, the door opened but it was just Chase coming in with lots of papers and his hands full. Both Lucy and I feel relieved, I did not even realise that I was even holding my own breath. “Chase, you had us both there for a moment, we were not sure whether to fight or flight” I laughed as I said it to Chase. He started laughing and we all joined in, laughing at how nervous we were that we were already found.  

Eyeing the stack of papers that Chase had, I asked, “So, what are all those papers Chase?” “Those are all the leaflets of some of the places available to rent, I thought I would take them all back and we could go through it together and let us see what would be perfect for us” Chase responded. Before I could say another word, there was a loud growl from my stomach to say, I am hungry. I went red in the cheeks, embarrassed by how loud my stomach rumbled. Everyone laughed at me, and Chase said, “How about we order some room service, and we can go through those papers whilst we eat?” Both Lucy and I grinned and nodded our heads.  

Our room service came in no time, we ate whilst we went through the paper stacks, which we split into three piles. The first pile being the ones we really liked, the second pile that was a maybe and the third pile being a no pile. I had gone through quite a few, most of them going into a no pile and just a couple that were in the ones we really liked. However, it was this picture that stood out to me. It was a decent sized house; it was near to the woods but also close to the town centre. There was a garden that was also hidden and therefore, we could use it for training I thought. Not only that, it was a place where we could also run away if we were ever found, we could make a quick getaway if needed. We could also place a car in the woods and be able to drive off if there was ever a need. It felt like this should be the place we should stay at. “Hey guys, look at this one and tell me what you guys think of it” I said to both Lucy and Chase.  

They both looked at it, deep in thoughts. Lucy was the one to speak first. “This is a decent house, plus there is a garden, we can also grow our own vegetables. Not only that, but I also feel like there is something that is calling me to say that this is a perfect safe house for us.” “Yes, I too feel a pull to say that this is a perfect safe house for us. Not only that though, I thought you might say that Lucy, the garden is perfect, we may be able to fit in some training but also it is within a walking distance of a nearby gym, I was thinking of holding classes there, like an instructor, so we can make some money before we move later. Plus, the bonus side is that there are the woods, we can always make escape routes if need be.” “I guess we already found our house, can we go view it tomorrow and you organise it, Chase?” Chase nodded his head. “Well, it is getting late, it is probably best we all get some good night sleep and tomorrow, we can go do more exploring of the town.” Lucy and I nodded our heads and I got up to get ready for bed.  

Hey my lovely readers! Apologies for the slow and short chapter. I just started back to work last week and its only been the first week but full of deadlines and been super busy! Not only that, I have been dealing with my ongoing flare ups and my medication is not helping as much anymore. Hopefully, I will get some answers next week when I see the specialist and have a plan in place that will help me out and reduce my flare ups. My flare ups limits movements in my fingers and hands unfortunately so it takes me even longer to even type out a chapter. I will release another chapter soon but let me know what your thoughts are on this chapter! What is making Mia and the others feel this pull towards the house they have opted to view! What do you guys think?
