Why the Alpha (ON HOLD)

Chapter Seven

    Rose made her way to her balcony after getting dressed, she looked out and sighed then threw herself over the railing and landed on four paws. She shook out her coat and dug her paws into the ground and launched off into the forest, not bothering to tell anyone where she was or that she was leaving. All Rose knew was that she needed to be alone, as she ran the haunting howls and snarls clouded her mind. The fight still fresh and painful, the wolf slowed to a walk and shook her head. It tired to shake the thoughts and images of the blood and death that surrounded her and her two friends, but the images wouldn't go away. The wolf laid down and whined putting its paws over its head, unaware of the nearby presence of another wolf, one far more dangerous and powerful. But the male wolf just watched the she wolf in despair as he couldn't do anything to take away her pain, but he sat down and watched her.

Roses wolf whimpered and tried to block out the painful memories and quickly stood up, her eyes closed tightly she took off. Her sudden movement startled the male who jumped to his feet and quickly followed after her, she wasn't in her pack territory anymore. But she didn't notice as she was to focused on trying to escape, the wolf had enough and picked up his pace and caught up to her easily. He knocked her onto her side with his head and placed a paw on the she wolf, whos eyes opened quickly and were looking up at him unfocused and full of fear. She was reliving the nightmare, Rose struggled and howled trying to get out of the wolfs hold.

   The fear was all she could focus on, she successfully got a grip on the wolfs front right paw and bit down hard. But he didn't even flinch, she tugged and scrambled to kick him off of her but he was to fast. The male had his jaws on the back of her scruff and let out a low warning growl, he applied light pressure enough to let her know he wasn't playing around. Her wolf quieted down and released his paw from her jaws, she whimpered and bared her neck in submission. He gently let go of Rose and backed off, she slowly stood up and watched the strange wolf who walked behind a tree and shifted. A man looking around the age of twenty two walked out in the wolf's place, his brown hair cut short military style and his light brown eyes watched her with a mild interest. He leaned against a tree and tossed her a shirt which she caught in her mouth, Rose walked behind another tree and shifted quickly slipping on the shirt.

      When she walked out the man had a pair of basketball shorts on and his arms were crossed, which did not help her concentrate as his muscles rippled with his movements. He smirked at how hard his mate was trying to not check him out, the male stood straight and cleared his throat. Roses blue eyes snapped up to him and she was lost once their eyes made contact, it was like the world stopped and the only thing that mattered was him. She quickly looked away and hid her blush while the male watched her interested "Do you know that your trespassing?" he asked simply, his deep voice had a slight husky undertone to it which made her shiver.

Rose looked up and tilted her head confused "Trespassing?" she asked, quickly looking around her eyes widened as nothing seemed right and the forest itself seemed different the brush was thicker then by the pack house. Rose bit her lip and quickly bowed her head in submission, it was stupid that she didn't notice the feeling of passing over the border. The males nose flared as she spoke her words soft and confused, to him the soft tone was like a melody he would never get tired of hearing. But he realized that she was looking at him waiting for an answer and he had to clear his mind of the thoughts he was having, "yes, you are on the Black Waters land.." he said carefully.

   Roses eyes widened when he said the name of the pack and instantly got worried, the Black Waters pack was known for being ruthless and bloodthirsty. No one made it back out of their lands even if they accidentally crossed over, and Rose backed up a few steps and looked for an exit. The male noticed and signed, his mate was scared "nothing's going to happen.." He said trying to calm her. But Rose looked at him once then spun on her heel and followed her scent, there was no way she was going to die like that. Rose kept on running and shifted mid stride, the male smirked and followed her casually running behind her. He growled as she picked up her pace and made it close to the pack line, as she crossed over he slid to a stop and bared his teeth. There waiting for her was Dog and Ash, who quickly stepped in front of her blocking the view from the male. Whos wolf turned aggressive, at the sight of two others blocking him from his mate. He shifted back and snarled "Who the actual fuck are you?" he asked his eyes shifting from black to their light brown as he fought for control. Rose watched from her spot safely behind Ash, who stepped forward and crossed his arms "I am Alpha Ash of the Raven woods pack, and you were chasing after my beta. So who are you to snarl and challenge me?" He asked bored and raised an eyebrow. Silver watch carefully waiting to see who the mystery male and so was her wolf.

"I am Alpha Jackson of the Black Waters pack, and that's my mate your blocking." He growled lowly and Dog answered back, Jackson's eyes snapped over to Dog and his lips curled back. Rose whimpered which caught Jackson's attention. He looked worried and made a move to get closer but Dog growled again.
