Alphas Don’t Beg

chapter 6 -

Derek POV

“Have mason lost his mind?” Alexandria screams.

“No, quiet the opposite, he is planning something else, that can’t be his true intentions” I try to think.

“so what? You are going to do what he wants or something?” Alexandria says losing all rationality.

“Over my dead body, I’d rather die before I let that happen” I say getting emotional myself.

No one is getting near my princess, alpha or not, she is still my little girl.

“And maybe that’s exactly what he wants, Derek” Dean suggests.

“It’s a possibility” I agree with him.

“But he wants me dead, not you” Alexandria says.

“And what better way to torture you than kill your own mate, and maybe he wants to kill you both, he still believes you know where Leila is” Dylan chips in.

“But he knows I’m not that easy to kill nor will it be a sure win for him if we went to war” I say.

“ He’s been trying to provoke us for years now and we only ignored him for max’s sake because he is his older brother and all that, but this, this can’t be ignored, nor will he let it go” Dean says.

“Well, let’s go to the meeting then and try to figure out what he really wants” I decide, and everyone agrees.

Alexandria POV

What the f**k is wrong with mason?

I know what is wrong with him, he lost his only family, his baby brother and he blames me… I blame me too.

But to come after my daughter, that’s unforgivable and quiet honestly a low blow.

But who am I to blame Mason? I went crazy myself when I lost Max too.

Like every time I feel really upset or sad, my feet takes me to his doorsteps, his pretend tombstone… His bedroom.

“Hey, asshole” I greet Max.

“This is a real shitty time for you to be dead, you know, someone needs to knock back some sense into your brother”.

“Oh, how the tables are turned, he was the one always knocking sense into us, getting us out of trouble before dad finds out… I miss dad too… tell him I said hello if you see him in your hunters' heaven or whatever nice place you are in right now… and it better be a nice place or I’m going to kick the moon goddess’s ass” I threaten, hoping she can hear me.

It's been a while since she talked to me and to be honest, I’m glade, she always comes to me when someone dies, or something truly horrible happens, so it’s a good thing that she is away.

“Anyhow, can you pop up in his dreams or appear to him like in an epiphany or something and tell him he is being a huge d**k?”.

I hear someone walking past me but I don’t give a s**t, me talking to a door became a normal thing in this pack.

“Hey, love, I knew you would be here… are you telling Max that his brother is being a huge d**k?” Derek says, hugging me from behind.

“you got it” I say chuckling lightly, enjoying the warmth of my husband’s hug.

But a second later we hear someone screaming in pain, what the hell is going on?

Gabriel POV

She gets on my f*****g nerves and under my skin.

“and on your mind, and in your dreams”

“shut up phoenix”

“I’m only telling the truth”

“don’t act like you don’t howl in excitement every time you see her but growl in anger every time she opens her mouth”

“Fine, I’ll shut up”, thought so.

Where was I? yes, packing to go back home with the royal pains of my being.

“Gab, you seriously need to calm down” Jake says, when did Jake come into my room?

“What do you mean? I’m just packing my cloth”, what is he talking about?

“No, you are packing shreds of your cloth that you are practically ripping out of your closet man”, What? Oh f**k, he is right.

“Well, put yourself in my shoes, she keeps insulting me at every turn” I shout.

It’s true, every time we see each other it ends up with one of us insulting the other, mainly me being insulted.

“Say insulting one more time, you haven’t said it enough” Phoenix mocks. Asshole.

“And you don’t do the same? I mean what was that you did when alpha gunner talked to her?” he asks with one eyebrow raised.

“I didn’t do anything, and why was alpha fucker talking to her in the first place? And don’t tell me it was professional, professional. Professional talk won’t include the beauty of her eyes and that s**t” I say trying not to tear up all my cloth as I pack them.

“No, I won’t tell you it was professional, but I would tell you that it was none of your f*****g business” He says with a pointed look.

“what? She is-” I try to justify what I did but he cuts me off.

“don’t pull she is under your protection s**t on me, dude, because you don’t even believe it, and wasn’t you who said we can’t get ‘entangled’ with the royals? Now you have a crush on the royalist of them all” he says with a playful grin, Is he gloating? Did I mention that he is an asshole?

“I don’t have a crush, it’s quite the opposite, I find her annoying, bratty, full of herself” I start making my point.

“Gab” Jake tries to cut me off, but I ignore him.

“And quite ugly to be honest, who thinks she is special when she is less than ordinary” I tell him but before I continue, he yells at me.

“GABRIEL” Jake shouts.

“Why are you yel-” Oh, s**t.

“I was just coming here so we could make peace, turns out you are just a piece of s**t” blue eyes says with the fakest smile then turns and leaves.

Fuck, s**t, s**t, f**k… WHY?

I don’t even think before I follow her out of my room.

“Wait! I didn’t mean that” I say trying to catch up to her.

Damn! she is fast.

“f**k off beta f*****g Gabriel” she says still walking away when we both see the queen standing in front of a bedroom door mumbling something.

“Is her majesty okay?” I ask and we both stop.

“Yes, she does that sometimes when she is really upset” she answers with a worried expression.

“And it’s none of your f*****g business” she snaps back and starts walking away again.

She is getting further away and I don’t know what comes over me, but I do a very stupid thing.

I grab her arm to stop her, pulling her towards me and she falls right into my arms.

There is nothing but thin air between our bodies and I feel her heavy breath on my face.

We stand there for what feels like eternity, and I don’t want this moment to end.

My eyes drift to her lush lips and I just want to devour them.

“Do it”, yes, maybe I should.

I tilt my head closer to hers and she is not moving back, she seems lost in the moment just as I’m… I’m going for it.

Just as my lips brush hers, I howl in pain.

“What the f**k!” I scream.
