HE'S MY ALPHA

"Rise, my dear Luna," his voice echoed, sending chills down my spine. I lifted my gaze from the ground, hesitantly standing tall while holding my breath. "I am Clair, Alpha Aeon," I replied respectfully, averting my eyes to avoid direct confrontation. His frustration was palpable, quickly shifting into anger. I swallowed hard, fear constricting my throat. "Have I done anything to earn your animosity?" His hand reached around my neck, drawing closer, "My wolf longs to mark you, Clair. It promises pain, but I could ease it. Acceptance would make it bearable. Surrender, and I'll ensure it's a gentler process." He touched my chin, compelling me to meet his gaze. "Look into my eyes. You'll be mine, and I'll erase any memory of those before me." Tears welled up, and I felt the battle slipping away. Just as I prepared to concede, a fierce growl shook the very earth beneath us. "I will not allow you to claim what belongs to me!" I snapped open my eyes, turning towards the source of the warning. He's here. He's come for me. My own Alpha has come for me. * * * Alpha Jacob Galhart of the Black Shadow Pack had never sought a mate. For years, he had led his pack alone, content with the status quo.
