The Hybrid Alpha

~THIRTY TWO~

KATE'S POV

"Not interested in a fight with you" I roll my eyes in response inching closer to him by the open balcony.

"I just wanted to let you know I'm sorry...for everything" Suddenly my mouth yearns for water, the mere thought of listing the reasons for saying sorry has me on edge. Where the hell is that drink?!

"Not sure where this is going..." Half his body turns to face me and now seeing the moon shadow his face makes him look handsome yet dangerous.

To hell with the drink!

"For jumping to conclusions, falsely accusing you and for calling you unspeakable things..." My fingers begin to fiddle with each other and my lips part almost on the verge of crying as I see a flash of pain flicker behind his beautiful hazel eyes.

"...and for hurting you; my mate" Just when I thought he would reply we both hear footsteps down the hall by the stairs. The voices begin to clear and we were able to tell it was the Alpha and Luna.

Can't let them see us like this, so much for making peace.

"Hold me" Confused by the second Xavious pulls me closer to him engulfing me with his warmth. His masculine scent driving my wolf and I crazy, was it my time of the month?

Despite the tension our bodies seem to find comfort as my arms lock around his neck as his does my waist. Even with my heels my height stood nowhere near his, that is until he hoists me up and places me on the stone balustrade of the balcony.

Xavious' head is in the crook of my neck inhaling my scent as I rake my fingers through the wavy strands of his hair while snuggling even closer.

The footsteps recede indicating they had left yet we stay intertwined.

"Apology accepted?..." I whisper by his ear only to hear him let out a sigh.

"I'll think about it, till the third event that is"

"Do I hear a challenge Xavious?"

"But we can't do this again, no touching" His mischievous grin is aimed at me as I bite my bottom lip considering.

"Deal." To seal the 'deal' I quickly peck his lips but pulling away was harder than I thought, the tingling sensation and the intensity around us. I swear he would've captured me in another deep kiss if it weren't for the fireworks!

XAVIOUS POV

Why I choose to torture myself (on a daily basis that is) is beyond me. A few packs including mine are gathered at The River Side pack for the second nights event.

It's past midday and lunch is done and over with. The kids and a few teens from all packs are engaged with activities of which from the many; currently are occupied with Kate.

I was located across on the large fields where combat fighting sessions has been made learning from the warriors first hand. I could see her even from this distance interacting with the kids and their families even Kate joining in with the dance performances.

She truly is a beauty.

Finishing off with Wyatt and Alpha Kane the fight was intense with Wyatt having the upper hand due to being built and experience of course. Seeing the crowd still in for another fight before dusk I enter the boundary with Wyatt as my opponent.

"Last round" With a tilt of his head and a smile plastered on his face I dodge his first two blows making it look like I was going for a punch instead a fast sidekick and punches to his abdomen has him on the floor. His blocking was good but I was faster at striking a few here and there but his technique seemed all too familiar.

"How did I ever think I would stand a chance against his fathers son" After I won the fight his comment caught me off guard, the hybrids were indeed taught by my father.

Nightfall comes faster than anticipated as I open a few buttons from the top of my royal blue dress shirt and zip my white pants. Grabbing a silver watch and spraying myself with whatever smells good I head out down towards the river where an open structure of a hall was set. Decorated with many lights, garlands and centerpieces.

The music flowed in synch with the ripples of the river water as was the calming, fresh breeze. Amidst the dancing bodies of unmated males and females and young adults was my Luna; Kate.

I sensed her scent before I laid eyes on her and it was stronger tonight.

She was simply breath-taking; her short yet tight dress bringing out every prominent curve. But seeing her crowded by the triplets from the warriors has my anger rising to the surface.

She is mine.
