The Alpha within

Chapter 8

Alie

~It was strange to me how he showed no emotion, it saddened me. I had lost my mother who loved me dearly, I was going to miss her hugs and her smiles that made me feel loved every time I entered a room. I was never going to see her again, hear her tell me she loved me or her lectures. I was trying not to tear up but a tear run down my cheek.

“Alie my dear, what’s the matter?” He asked his voice more gentle and soft now.

“I… well… um..” I stammered knowing if I said it out loud I’d be a mess of tears. “My mother is dead…” I felt more tears run down my face “she was killed right I front of me, I’m a wolf I never knew that.” I was whispering but I knew he could hear me. “ there’s a bad man after me… my mother is dead” I couldn’t help my self I was crying loudly at this point. He surprised me and got up and came around his desk picked me up and held me like a baby. He rubbed my back and played with my hair.

“My dear, I’m sorry to hear how hard this has all been for you, but your life was written for you before you were even born. We tried to run from it, and Jane did well for almost 18 years but sadly all that must come to and end. You need to put your emotions as side, as future alpha and queen of this pack you need to be strong like I know you are. I made a promise to be here and help you and I will do my best, but my dear you need to let your wolf guide you and you guide her. You’re stronger together, once you’ve turned tomorrow you will feel the bond grow stronger and that’s when we will start training and when I will explain everything for now you need to rest.”

I didn’t fight him on it as much as I wanted answers but I was a mess of emotions and I knew I needed rest. He carried me to my room and laid me on the bed. We didn’t speak I just laid there and shut my eyes. I was still crying thinking about everything, dealing with emotions that I wasn’t even sure how to deal with. I had lost a whole life and wasn’t sure what’s in store for me, I had a feeling my life was going to be different and harder from here on out. I’m not sure how long he stayed there for but he was there playing with my hair doing his best to comfort me till sleep finally over came me.

Raffy

I had just gotten back from informing the pack of the dinner this evening and had a bag of clothes the she wolves had put together for Alie. I would have much preferred to take her out shopping for her own things instead of these rags. Sadly that wasn’t an option right now, she didn’t even know we were mates yet but every part of me wanted to see her happy and smiling as she tried on new clothes and maybe a few special pieces for the bed room… As I approached her room the door was open I could smell her so I knew she was in there but as I turned the corner I seen him sitting on her bed playing with her hair has she slept. She’s mine my wolf growled from the back of my mind and I rolled my eyes at him he’s her uncle you i***t.

“Alpha I have some clothes your requested for her and the dinner is being taken care of.” I was whispering so I didn’t wake her. He just waved his hand for me to come in.

“Place them on the dresser over there I’ll have her go threw them when she wakes up” was all he said before pointing to the door telling me to leave. This is not the bad ass mean alpha I was use to seeing, he was cold when we first got here with her. He didn’t hug her or show any kind of emotion toward her and now he’s in there comforting her while she sleeps. Maybe he regrets not having children of his own, he never did have a mate or and children that I was aware of. We all figured he just choose not to and that it made his mind more clear not having them as distractions. We also never knew he had a sister or a niece either. Come to think of it i didn’t really know much of his past.

~*•have a dress sent up for her for the party this evening, I want something new something of royalty for her•*~ the alpha had mind linked me and once again I was set off on a new task for him.

Raphael

She looked so perfect, laying there. My dear little Alie, my heart broke for what she was going threw. I’ll have to question Raffy later how my sister died and why this tragedy happened on his watch. I couldn’t blame him for her pain though, years ago when she was first born Jane and I both knew she wasn’t going to have an easy life. She was going to face heart ache, loss, struggles and many different tasks and emotions threw her life. Choices we made back then seem so foolish now. Maybe it would have been different if I had kept her here? Maybe I could have prevented this one heartache for her? I know I can’t change it now, I knew I had made choices and I must be strong for her. How was I going to tell her the truth and her not hate me for it. When she finds out it’s going to change everything for her more then it already has and I’m not sure if she can handle the amount of pain, hate and anger she is going to have. She’s a strong wolf we’ve always known she was going to be different and it worries me now what she might do. Who she might become… The next few days we’re going to be rough but I had to do it for her, She deserves the truth and I will help her threw all of it. I will be strong for my dear sweet Alie. ~
