Alpha Blood - free

chapter 16

we had moved the couch back against the wall and brought out chairs for everyone to sit in. while everyone filed in with their plates of food.

I sat up at the front with the twins while eating my bag of chips. I kept getting curous looks or glares from people

I'm guessing the glares are from people who have slept with them? o

Or do they know who I am to the twins? or both?

my wolf laughed a little at that thought.

"Who will kill us?" she said, "our father or an ex lover of our mates."

"If looks could kill. look at that brunette she's throwing daggers with those eyes."

I smiled at this brunette while very pointedly chumped down on a chip. She was dressed to impress in her very expensive looking baby blue dress that her boob's almost popped out of while she breathed.

then I started to look around.

"How many of them have their boob's about to pop out?"

we both started counting.

"What are you doing, baby?" Josiah whispered in my ear. I jumped a little.

"Counting how many women have their breast on display." I whispered back without looking over at him.

He laughed and kissed me on the cheek. that made me blush a little.

Uriah leaned over my other shoulder and whispered, "You're the only breasts we want to see."

"perve."

he laughed and kissed my other cheek before getting up to speak.

"I'm sure you are all wondering why we have called the meeting today." Uriah started, "first we would like to apologize to everyone for the lack of leadership we have shown. that has led to this issue at hand."

there was a slight gasp in the crowd, and I found libs eyes, and she looked just as confused before looking at me with worry.

"Since we have f*cked around and not kept the pack rules enforced. allowed certain individuals to harm someone that as alphas we promised protection to. but also, she is our mate."

he took a pause. Now, all eyes are on me, and everyone finally realizes why I am on stage with them.

"The path we took to be not as strict with the rules as our father was lead to this person to believe they could take what was ours and try to profit from it. As alphas, we have failed not only her but you as well. how are we supposed to keep you safe if we fail to keep what belongs to us safe."

Josiah walked up next to his brother and patted his arm, and they both lowered their heads, " we apologize. We have failed the pack as leaders."

the room was silent as everyone took in their apology. it looked like everyone was confused but didn't know how to ask what happened.

Lib caught my eyes again, and I gave her a nod to ask the question.

"Ah alphas," she spoke up, "What happened? and why isn't Coach here."

they both growled at the sound of his name.

"I guess that's my turn," I said internally.

I stood up and tapped them both on the shoulder so I could stand in the middle.

"Umm, Hi, I can answer that question." I started, and they both placed a hand on my back for support. I could feel the warmth of their skin, and it made me calmer. "My name is Cora, I come from the Ouachita River pack. The Alpha there is my biological father. If you have heard the rumors of a she-wolf with a massive bounty on her head, that's me. I ran away from my Alpha when I was eightteenth. What he does to eightteenth year old she-wolves is disgusting. but inside the pack, it's a normal thing, and we are brainwashed into thinking it is fine. what that a*shole does to his own flesh, and blood is worse."

everyone in the room shifted uncomfortably. Everyone knew the rumors of that place. I also heard some slow growls come from some of the men.

"I was so afraid of the Alphas trying to use the mate bond to distract me so they could sell me back. that I didn't even consider Coach being that person."

everyone gasped, "Coach used the trust that I had in him to drug me and tie me up with silver, and call my a*shole of a father. So he is on his way now." I let that sink in for a moment, "I have been on the run for the past ten years. I am done running, I am done with him haunting my dreams. I am going to fight him when he gets here. I am not your Luna. Half of you didn't even know I was here, and the other half hated me because I am the Alphas mate. what I am going to ask is for you to go home, collect your family's, and leave town for a few days. those of you with daughter please leave. because I do not garteen that the three of us are going to be able to bet him, and i would guess that he would want to relocate those of you with family's back down to his pack. if not everyone. it would be within his right if he kills your Alphas."

everyone started to look around the room at their neighbors and friends at their pack.

a man about mid thirty stood up, "What if we want to fight? to make sure that our families are safe?"

I didn't know what to say. I froze. Josiah spoke instead, "Pack your family up, and come back here tomorrow morning. anyone who wants to fight for their family, their land, and their pack is more than welcome to."

Uriah spoke last, "After this is over, we will pass the pack to whoever you feel comfortable with running it. we never appointed a Bata, but we will help whoever to do it properly."

Everyone in the room was shocked myself including he continued, "we will take over Ouachita River pack and help those wolves. Hopefully, we can be redeemed for our failures here."

"Everyone is dismissed."

everyone started filing out, but I noticed Lib didn't move from her seat. I started towards her and looked back at the men looking at me curously. Then I nodded at her, and they looked over. They both nodded and left the room with everyone else.

I sat down next to her, turning the chair around in front of me so I could slouch down with my feet up.

"So you're worth a million bucks, huh?" she laughed out, with a tear falling down her check.

I laughed a little, "Yeah, do you think I could get some of that money. if I turned myself in?"

she laughed a little harder, which made me laugh.

she took a deep breath, "I'm sorry about Coach."

I took one too, "I'm sorry about Coach."

"I will fight with you, Mag... Cora."

I took her hand, "You don't have to do it out of guilt. Coach was a Grown A*s man, he made his own choices."

"This isn't about him... this is because you are my friends and I want to be there for you."

"ok, but promise me one thing before."

"What?" she asks.

"Well, I guess two things. first, go to that man of yours and tell him how you feel. tell him the truth if you can. tell him everything you have been holding back." she nodded sadly at the floor, "if he loves you the way that you and your wolf loves him, he will except you for everything. and when he does, I want you to F*ck his brains out tonight."

her mouth fell open at that, "What!?"

"You heard me, missy. I want you coming in here smelling like your mate tomorrow." I gave her a devilish smirk.

her eyes sparkled, "Yeah, I think I will."

I grabbed her arm, "Even if he rejects you. now you know, and you will be a better fighter tomorrow either way." Hurt passed through her eyes at that, "and if he does reject you, still f*ck him one last time. he will be ok with it, he will think it's break up s*x. either way, you get laid."

she had a smile on her face as she rolled her eyes and got up to leave.

I followed her to the front door and hugged her.

after I closed and locked the door behind her, I turned around to my two men, leaning against the opposite wall.

"What?" i asked them.

"I think that was great advice." Uriah said.

I put my finger on my lip and looked up, "And what advice would that be? that she should tell him that she loves him? tell him the whole truth?" I asked all innocently.

Josiah came up behind me, wrapped his arms around my waste, and kissed my neck, "that she should f*ck him." he whispered before nipping on my ear.

"Oh, that advice." I moaned as I leaned back into him.

Uriah came up and kissed the other side of my neck, making me gasp.

I pushed Uriah away, grabbed both their hands, and led them to a bedroom where it would be more comfortable.
