Claiming The Hidden Alpha✔️

Chapter 32

Jerome

I couldn't help but feel restless about tomorrow. You might be wondering what will happen tomorrow. Tomorrow would be the D-day for the duel which would take place in this pack. I couldn't help but feel worried about what would happen. I knew that the book has classified me into being a but the truth is that I never felt anything different with me since the day I was told. I was worried that it was due to some reasons but as I trained harder hoping that I will get what I wanted.

I knew this might sound lame to Erica if I was to tell her all what I have been feeling. I knew that she would want me to back out of the duel after knowing all this. I knew she had expected me to be what the book had talked about. The fearless who goes against two alpha at a time but I guess if that would be ever possible. I knew that if I was to ever become the thing that was talked about in the book then I'll be grateful. I knew things won't go as planned nor will it be possible to be the . I felt hurt knowing that I won't be able to do anything other than to watch as the councils make her get married to another person.

I knew that I would kill myself instead of watch and bearing the pains of my mate being with someone else. I knew that I had improved greatly but not as I wanted. I know that I may not be able to fight warriors but I can still fight pack members. I knew for a fact that there would be few pack members who would want to contest for the duel. I knew that they would be afraid and wouldn't hesitate to back out before the fight. I knew that I'm fighting mostly warriors and alpha's because no pack members in his right sense would try joining the duel.

I also would have backed out before if it was when I first got to this pack. I would not try ever joining and trying to fight in the duel. I have always cherished and loved my life but now that all seems to have vanished. All I wanted was to become one of the strongest warriors or Lycan to be able to be with my mate. I have the urge to stay and protect my mate no matter the condition. I have the urge to be with my mate now. I want to be by her side every moment.

I sighed heavily as I moved away from the punching bag which didn't seem moved. I have been training with Stephen (Erica's father) . He has taught me so many things and I'm grateful for that. He has hope in me. He had placed his hope on me and the same with his wife, Caitlyn. They all want me to win in the duel, they wanted their daughter to be happy with me but that can only happen if I win the duel. I know my chance of winning the duel is very slim but I'm ready to do that. I would do whatever it takes to prove the council I'm strong enough to keep her safe.

I knew that they had thought I wouldn't be able to protect her due to the fact that I'm an Omega. I knew that they had planned all this because they found out about me being an Omega. I couldn't help but feel the need to become what I had read from the book. I knew that if I had the powers of the then I would be able to win the duel. I knew that being an Omega isn't as easy as I thought when I was in my pack but now I do because I'm being discriminated against. I knew that having a strong mate by someone's side is good but with me being an Omega or rather a person who hasn't discovered his powers.

I sighed heavily as I walked out of the training center, not the pack's training center but Erica's training center. I was breathing heavily with sweats dripping down my body. My eyes were covered with sweat that dripped into my eyes. I wiped off the sweat that had formed on my forehead. I felt myself getting dizzy due to the fact that I hardly rest. I knew that not resting for days isn't good. I hardly have four hours of sleep talkless of nine hours of sleep. I knew that this wasn't as I had expected.

I had also thought that I would be with my mate immediately. I had accepted her but I was wrong because the moment I accepted her was the time when the crisis started arising. I knew that if I had accepted her earlier then things wouldn't have been like this. I knew that if not that I now know how I feel about her, I would have backed off from this duel.

I tried hard to stop thinking of the past because I knew if I keep standing here wallowing in thoughts then I won't be able to see Erica. I knew that this might be our last meeting but I want to make it memorable. I knew that all this might be altered if I kept standing. I knew that I wouldn't be able to see her again until the duel started. I knew that she would be scared to watch me fight but there was nothing she could do to stop herself from watching. I knew she would be curious and won't want to watch me get beaten but on the contrary she wants to watch as everything unfolds.

She wants to watch me but I doubt if that can happen because of who I was up against. I knew that those who I will be told to fight in the beginning might be easy to crack off but as soon as the fight gets more intensifying then I bet if I would have a chance against any of them. I knew things would get harder by that time but I'm not going to back down. I would not let anything make me back down from this duel. I will do everything in my power to make sure I succeed but I was nervous. I'm nervous of the things that would happen to Erica after I am gone. I knew it won't be easy for her but there is nothing I could do about it.

It has been written down and there is nothing I can do to change fate. If I'm to survive it will be good and if I don't there is nothing I can do. There is nothing anybody can do to change his or her faith, all that needs to be done is nothing but to stick to the right path. I knew the right path for me is to be with my mate which I found out too late. I would have enjoyed the time we spent together if not that I was blinded with anger and hatred for strong mate's.

I don't know how it feels to be in power but I guess if I become just like the book has said then I will know how it feels. I knew that alpha's are so cocky and full of themselves thinking that nobody nor anything can get in their way. I knew all this because of what Stephen had told me. He told me that I shouldn't fight like he has taught me but instead fight like I was taught in my old pack and try to make my winning against warriors luck. He told me to get hit in every duel I have with anybody and make them get distracted before acting. He explained to me that they would think it's easy to beat me and when they don't see it coming I should attack.

I knew the plan he made might sound easy but it will be hard to do. I knew that all I had to do was follow what he had said and I would have a chance of winning, and I was glad for the tip he gave me but also sad, angry and restless for not being able to get my Lycan power. It was like I'm getting obsessed with me being a but I knew that happened because I strongly believe that I was a and also because I Erica can't lie to me.

I shrugged off my thoughts and I made my way toward Erica's room, with a deep sigh. I couldn't help but wonder what she was doing right now. I knew it was late at night but I feel like she hasn't slept yet. I was hoping that we could have a talk together because this might be our last together. I opened her door and immediately I entered, took a peep inside her room, and I saw her pacing to and fro with a restless look on her face.
