Saved By The Alpha

Chapter Two: Worst Nightmare

Isla

I was running through the trees, jumping over fallen trees as I ran, I kept looking over my shoulder and seen him chasing me. I quickly turned left to run to our pack house, hoping if I got close enough I could mind link the pack that I needed help. I was coming to a clearing in the trees, but instead of it being the pack house, I was in my field. I stopped for only a second confused, but I collected myself and took off running again, trying to outsmart him, at least to give me time to get to the pack house. As I got closer to the pond I looked up into red eyes and a huge white wolf, it was growling and I completely froze. The wolf then jumped over me and attacked him. I slowly turned around and realized I was being chased by Xander.

He turned his head and looked right at me and smirked. “I’ll always find you my little lamb”.

I suddenly sat up in bed, covered in sweat, and scanned my room and realized it was all a bad dream. I laid back down and looked at my alarm clock, 6:25am. I had to be up in 5 minutes so I went ahead and got up, turned my alarm off, and check my phone, I had one message from Beatrix, since she’s not a werewolf she can’t mind link like the pack can. I opened her message. “Hey love, how are you feeling today?” She always knows when I am even slightly feeling off, she says it’s because she can feel how others are feeling. I reply “I’m fine Bea, just had another nightmare again”. I grab my clothes and head into the bathroom to take a shower. I pull my long black hair out of the messy bun and it falls to my waist. I strip out my clothes and turn on the shower, I get in under the hot water and let the water relax my tense muscles. Denali huffs “we have to do something about these nightmares of yours, I’d like to be able to sleep peacefully for once” I smirk “you and me both girl, you and me both”. I wash my hair and body and get out of the shower and start drying off. I put on my bra and thong, then my black leggings, my white crop top that shows off my wolf tattoo on my side, black leather jacket, and my black combat boots. I leave my hair down for now to help let it dry and put on my my mascara and lip gloss. I check my phone to see if Bea replied. “I’ll see if I can find something that may help” I sigh and smile. “Thank you Bea, you’re the best”.

I set my phone on my bedside table, and head downstairs to the kitchen to get me breakfast and coffee, then head into the dining hall to sit in my chair at the head of the table. Everyone began to make their plates and came to sit with me. My beta Abel came and sat to my left. The seat to my right always stayed empty because that is where my mate was suppose to sit. Everyone thought for a while the Abel would be my mate because of how close we are, but that never happened. I look over at Abel and we smile at each other. “So what’s the plan for today?” Abel asked. “Send some warriors to check the the borders of our land, also do you think you could handle training today? I’m honestly not up for it today” it was the day before the anniversary of my parent’s death. From his reaction he knew why I was asking. “Of course Alpha, take the day off, me and the pack understand completely” I give a slight smile. “Thank you Abel, I appreciate everything you do”. I finish eating and wash off my dishes, yes we have omegas, but I treat everyone the same in my pack, omegas are not are maids. I put my dishes up and head out the back door.

I go to our tree line and strip out of my clothes and shift into my wolf. After I have shifted, I pick my clothes up in my mouth and take off towards the field. I loved letting Denali out to run, she was very fast and agile. She ran through the trees and would jump over fallen trees. When we got to the clearing, she went over to the gazebo and shifted. I put my clothes back on, setting my jacket on the bench seats in the gazebo, and I walked over to the pond and sat down. I was watching all the fish swimming around, until I heard a twig snap in front of me across the pond. I raised my head, looking in the direction of the noise, then I saw movement. I got to my feet in a attack position, and waited. Then I seen red eyes.
