Alpha Female

Chapter 11

Alpha Pearls POV 

It has been seven days since Demon and his warriors arrived and to be honest i'm glad they did as we were finally making progress with the males of Rex's pack. And it was wonderful to finally be looked at with some respect. "Pearl you wanna come running with me" asked Demon from across the field before shifting into his red wolf with a black muzzle and chest. "Sure" I replied before shifting and bounding after Demon in my wolf form. I raced through the trees my paws pounding on the forest floor as I tried to outrun Demon who was panting beside me. 

I broke through the tree line first into a clearing skidding to a halt and ducking down just in time to avoid being jumped on by Demon. I chortled as he rolled head over tail trying to regain his balance. When he did regain his balance his eyes met mine in a playful challenge and he growled lightly before jogging over to me. I lightly growled back as we started to circle each other  bearing our teeth in mock aggression. I pounced first with Demon side stepping me in the last second to avoid being jumped on.

Demon then pushed my side and I stumbled enough to give him an opening in which he used to push me onto my back and stand over me with his tail held high. I huffed at this and manoeuvred my hind legs so that they pushed into his stomach, using my front legs i pushed his chest and got enough force to push him onto the grass next to me. using the opportunity to sit on his back whilst he was disorientated. 

We carried on playing just enjoying each others company and we soon ended up in a heap on the forest floor. We were side by side with my head on Demons front paws and his head on top of mine our breathing in perfect sync. I sighed in contentment as Demon started grooming my head fur a soft rumble starting in my chest. I drifted of into a comfortable light sleep as I was still aware of Demon running his tongue over my head.

I awoke about an hour later still snuggled into Demon's chest if I was in human form I would be blushing right now. I nudged Demon with my nose and pointed in the direction of Rex's pack house in silent conversation. A howl sounded in the distance coming from the pack house, it sounded like Clara so I quickly got up shaking out my fur before running in the direction of the pack house with Demon hot on my tail. When we broke through the tree line Clara was waiting for us with clothes in her hands.

"Welcome back Alphas, today's training was a success all of the males are finally improving with your assistance Alpha Demon" Clara said happily as we both shifted back and took the clothes of her hands. "Is there any particular reason you called us back so abruptly" I asked I was rather enjoying my time alone with Demon. The packs have finally come together and as celebration they wanted to prepare a big meal so there is a BBQ in the garden. But please shower first you are both covered in sweat, dirt and leaf litter" responded Clara a small smile apparent on her face. "Alright Clara, we'll be out in a little while" Demon said before going into the pack house a huge grin on his face. Clara winked at me before I went inside and I tilted my head in confusion before carrying on my way towards my room.

Alpha Rex's POV

I kept watching in defeat as Pearl and Demon snuggled together in the clearing.  Pearl allowing Demon to comfort her, she looked so a peace and relaxed by his side. But I could could see the true hidden emotions that lied in the depths of Demons eyes as he looked over Pearl. Guarding her from any threat that might sneak up on them whilst she was unaware. 

The truest and most vulnerable I had seen from either of the other Alpha's were when they were together. That hurt more than I thought it would, I don't even know why I followed them out here. With a low whine I trudged back towards the pack house shifting near my clothing tree before entering the garden  leading into the pack house kitchen. I found My Luna in the game room scolding Quartz's and Jake whilst she held our three year old sun Callum.   

"Hey Brittney whats going on" I hummed as I wrapped my arms around my beautiful mates and I reaffirmed my decision all those years ago as I breathed in Brit's scent. Sure I made a mistake but you can't change the past, i'll let Pearl figure out Demon holds affection for her, its time to let go. "These two won't go shower from training and i'm trying to get some sense knocked into their heads" Fretted Brit as she rotated Callum onto her other hip.  "Boy's go up and shower we are having a big meal tonight to celebrate the packs improvement" I Reasoned as I smoothed a lock of hair out of Brittney's face and kissed her on the forehead.

"Alright Dad, see you in a little while then" Quartz. He and Jake then rushed up the stairs to their rooms to do as I had asked. "What big meal" Questioned Brittney a puzzled look on her face. "Why don't you follow me into the yard and I'll show you" I promised as I led her into the back garden where pack members from all three packs were working together to prepare a BBQ with Pearls Dad and My Dad and Clara's Dad working the Grill, they have really become good friends in the last ten years. Our mothers watching over some young pups in the smaller play pool. 

"Oh that's what you meant. It sure is coming together nicely" commented Brit as she put Callum down who then promptly ran over to his Nan who picked him up into her arms and twirled him around before placing him back on the ground. He giggled as he was set back onto his feet his eyes shinning with unrefined joy. "Indeed it is" I affirmed as Quartz and Jake came out of the pack house wearing identical shorts and Vest's ready for the pool if need be.

The boys sure seemed to be bulking up rather quickly with their training and honestly i'm glad that they know how to protect themselves if the need ever arose, the same could be said of the females and the other pups. Quartz waved at me a smile present on his face before he joined his and Jake's sisters with the other pups their age as they got into games. I heard a howl as Clara called back the other Alpha's and not to long later Pearl and Demon entered the garden so close together they were almost touching. I could see it clearly now Demon was in love with Pearl any time another male looked at her with disrespect Demon would challenge them with his eyes. 

I'll keep this information to myself though I don't want it jeopardising the mission. The War with the rouges was still ongoing but for tonight we could relax with the sentries standing guard. New friendships growing between the packs and we were all finally coming together as the team we needed to defeat the rouges. Vlad the vampire was also flitting around the packs as my pack was finally confident he wasn't a threat. I liked this I thought as I sat on our swing bench with Brit her head resting on my shoulder.
