Mine, Forever Mine

Chapter 37: Alpha

"Our Alpha Dante has two sons, Rhys and Dominic. Neither have a mate, but Dante thinks Alexa is a perfect match for one of them." Joshua says and I shake my head, heading for my home. Neither call for me and I lock the door behind me. I lay down on the couch. I close my eyes and let sleep consume me.
I once again wake up to that beautiful grassy hill, in the same white dress. This time, I hear low cries and I look around for the source. "Alexa, ignore their cries. They are trying to draw you away, like before." My Creator says with a soft, small smile. I nod and she starts walking down the hill. I follow close behind her, and we return to the meadow of wildflowers. She sits and pats the space beside her. I curl my legs underneath me and I turn to face her. "Alexa, I know that you do not want to be with the Donati boys, but I cannot even tell who you are going to be with. I am glad you have a reaction with Alek Volkov, but you must be very careful with Dominic Donati. He can break your heart, so be well guarded." She says. "Wait, I'm actually going to the Amalfi Pack?" I ask. She simply nods. "You must. You'll be returning to your birthplace." She responds and I tilt my head to my right slightly. "I wasn't born... here?" I gulp. "No, child. You were born at the Amalfi Pack, but your father wanted you to grow up with his pack. Your mother wanted to take you and Kane to visit her family, but he was very much against it." She says. "That's why they were always arguing." I say softly. "Yes. But go with Joshua Drago. You can trust him. Do not, and I mean do not take Alek or Ash Volkov with you, they will only cause you trouble." She says and brushes her fingertips over my forehead, and the last thing I see before I wake up is her glowing silver eyes.

I blink twice and run upstairs, to pack my bags and to shower. I shower quickly and change into an Arctic Monkeys T-Shirt, a leather jacket, black jeans, and my all black leather Converse. I grab two large duffel bags and place various dresses that I know Kane would never approve of, jeans, blouses, t-shirts, etc. I put the bag in my closet and go into my private room, the one place I can be alone and relax. I plug my phone to charge, and press shuffle. Hello by Adele plays and I grab my guitar. I start strumming to the song, and close my eyes. I let the words of the song take over, and I hum along. When the song ends, I hear someone shuffle. I open my eyes and see Alek. He has his arms crossed over his chest and is staring intently at me. I blush and he smirks then it disappears. "Kane told me to bring you back to the house." He says and I growl. "Why are you in here?" I growl. "I followed your scent in here. Why? Does it matter?" He snaps back. "Yes. It does. This is my private place. Only I can come in here." I snarl and I start shaking in anger. "I don't really care, so you better fucking come for I'm dragging you back." He snarls and I scream in frustration. "Only you Alphas are like this. Over possessive, dominating, and narrow minded." I snap and he walks over to me. He grabs my face with one hand, forcing me to stare into glowing bright baby blue eyes. "You've got to understand me. I don't let people get close for a reason. I'm tired of getting hurt or betrayed. That's why I'm over possessive over you. I hate when I find one of my mates. I get jealous when I see you with Ash, but I won't do a thing about it. I won't take away his happiness for my selfishness." He says softly and I stare into his eyes. I run my fingertip over his jaw and he pulls back. "Don't. Don't you do this to me." He growls and backs away. I hold his face in my hands and make him look at me. "I want to understand why you're so guarded. I want to know you. I don't want you to live in your jealousy. I know Ash will find someone else, but you won't. You're too guarded. I want to help you drop your walls." I say and he shuts his eyes. "You can't help me." He answers and takes my hands off his face. He opens the door, leaving me alone with tears rolling down my face and my thoughts. And the lyric from Give Me Love by Ed Sheeran that was playing was Maybe I should let you go...
