The Forbidden Alpha

Like father like daughter

He stopped you? I can see he didn’t kill you because you are here giving me the story that only proves to me that I sent a p***y to do the job of a wolf and I have chosen a Beta that is incompetent to say the least. I was fuming and this was upsetting me to my core. How did he stop you? And before you answer make sure and think of a logical one that won’t end in me tearing you in half.

His eyes started shifting back and forth and I could tell he was searching for a plausible lie, I also knew that there was no way he would dream of fighting Renaldi, he was always intelligent but never known to be a strong one. He was always able to get into someone’s head to weaken them which to me was both a sign of weakness and a sign of strength, his only downfall was that the only way he could ever win was by catching someone off guard. This was why I wouldn’t think twice to put Serani as Alpha of this pack, she had the smarts, the brawn, the strength, the tactics, she had everything he didn’t. My pack would be weakened if I appoint him as Alpha, but I promised his father that he’d amount to something and I know my Serani will not hesitate to select a new Beta if left up to her. But the closest thing I can give her to power is his mate she can rule in the background, but I know she won’t settle for that. He’s done so many sneaky things over the years that now I’m really beginning to question his trust, I mean, how can an Alpha not trust his Beta.

Playing on his sleek, slender nature he replied I fought him all the way to his bedroom door, she was in there I swear, but he roared, held me up by my neck and waist and threw me through the window. Luckily, my scars healed fast, but I figured it was best for me to come back here do a recon and revisit.

I knew he was lying, Renaldi was a lot of things, short tempered and hasty being at the top of the list but he won’t try to hurt Arion intentionally, knowing that it won’t get him back in his father’s good graces. Renaldi had to prove now that he can survive on his own and he’s not just the rich, entitled kid whose anger always got the better of him. His father, Alpha Randall, ran the largest pack in the country, on the largest estate. His father was also a very good friend of mine. We made jokes when they were younger that the kids would marry each other. I winner what she was doing at his apartment?

Dad I’m ok. I promise I’ll return when I’ve figured all this out. My only goal right more is to ensure your safety and prove that I’m worthy. I love you dad. It was a mind link from Serani and as quickly as she sent it, it was cut off and blocked. Where was she? Is she by the gates? I moved from by my desk and looked out through the balcony to see if I can catch a glimpse of her. Where are you? I whispered. What was she speaking about? My safety? What does she know? I wish she’d come home and let’s figure this out together.

I excused everyone from my office including Arion and locked it and retired to my quarters. My wife sat there on her beauty table preparing herself for bed and I glimpsed her in the mirror and was reminded of her beauty. She suddenly turned and looked at me with water-soaked eyes which only lead me to believe that Serani mind linked her as well. I took her in my arms and she cried, she missed our baby girl more than anyone considering all that she went through with her pregnancy and Serani’s growing up. My wife kept saying that there is now a whole in her soul where Serani filled and it’s getting bigger every moment that passes. As an Alpha I understood why she left, but as a father I just wanted my baby girl back.

ARION’S POV

After this week’s happening la I was no closer to becoming Alpha. Serani won’t submit, Kirk sees me as weak and for the hundredth time Renaldi has gotten the upper hand on me and now it’s doubled because he has his title and my mate. Serani isn’t actually my mate as there is no real bond between us other than the fact that she was promised to me by her father but I need her for my plan to work. She was very adamant on saving herself for her mate when we were growing up, and as far as everyone knew it remained that way well into adulthood. So the big ticket question is, is Renaldi her mate? I had to be sure because if it were so I’ll have more than just my position to worry about. I know she’s working overtime to prove herself a true Alpha but I’m not worried because the Elders will never go for that, not only are they not giving the crown to a female, but they are not making a natural born Alpha male serving in command to a woman.

Think Arion think, I paced my bedroom floor trying to understand and put the together. I was known for my brains never my strength. If I was to become Alpha I had to be smart about this. Firstly, I need Serani to come back to the mansion, she went right the night they announced our engagement. Serani’s power is unimaginable, from fighting raids with her father, to our training sessions where she would lay those omegas flat on their backs in no time and even if they felt as though they had the upper hand she rendered them immobile. However, I wasn’t going to allow her to spoil my plans.

But what bothered me more than anything was that if Serani can fight then why would she hide behind Renaldi, she was never one for submission. She would never have missed the opportunity to face me. This was indeed confusing. Why was she hiding? What was she hiding? Wait, is she, pregnant? Serani, what do you have to your sleeve? This is beginning to irritate me and I will become Alpha whether it’s marrying you or killing you and your family, that title is mine.

SERANI’S POV

I turned the key to my apartment gently, on high alert to sense any intruders. Luckily, I was there alone and tossed myself on the couch and let out a sigh of relief. My dad seemed so worried, at least I let him and mom know that I was ok. I told mom to keep an eye for Arion that I didn’t trust him. She agreed, she also agreed to keep a keen eye on dad once Arion was around.

For the last two weeks I’ve been getting these queasy, nauseous feeling and I don’t seem to understand where they were coming from. I never got sick so it could not have been the flu. I started feeling light headed and so I fixed the pillows on my couch to lay my head and relax for a while to see if the feeling will pass. I had already tossed my jacket one way on the floor and the pants the other, I didn’t really care to place my shoes correctly either. I’ll fix it when I feel better. As I closed my eyes the knocking started as though the person was going to break the door down, shouting my name to the top of their lungs I took a deep breath and exhaled and went to the door.
