Derick's POV

I knew that if they were to get close again, the strength of their bond would increase, she kissed him and today I felt immense pain, I know this pain, she slept with him.

"Did we lose her already?", I asked Eros.

"No, we haven't. She hasn't chosen him and until then, we'll fight for her", Eros states.

We were called to the last meeting and I couldn't concentrate on the plans, but I noticed the route was very vulnerable, and I expressed it, but Hamilton said he knew that and exactly that was the reason it was selected, nobody expects we attack from there, we spoke about the distribution and the meeting ended.

I called Shawn, George and the rest of the alphas with us, beta John as well, we are 20 alphas with our groups of 150 wolves each, we didn't bring that many because Hamilton said was no need with the army of Boudin and his guard being near to us.

"I called you because I want to state I'm not confident with the route, and I want to know if you think the same", I exposed.

The alphas looked between each other and one by one agreed with me, "even if is like that, we can't change it without the king's permission", beta John points out.

"I know, I will talk with my uncle in private to ask him to change it, but we need to rearrange the distribution, we must be near him the whole time, beta John can you do it?", I asked.

"Of course I can, but his majesty will be piss", he advised.

"I rather, him to be piss at us, than regret it later", I replied we all nodded.

I send her flowers and she didn't call me to thank me or anything, I felt Shawn approach me, "what's up bro?", He salute me.

"Here, thinking on her", I admitted.

"hasn't she forgiven you?", He asked.

"She has, but she hasn't picked me", I explained.

"But has not chosen the king either", Shawn retored trying to cheer me up.

"So why I feel like I lose her already?", I stated, "you know her better than I, if she would have never met me, but would have met Boudin, would she be with him without thinking about a bit?", I ask the question I'm scared of.

"Yes", Shawn answered sincerely, "they are very similar and that is good... But that's not the case here, she met you first and even with everything it happened she loves you", he paused, "sometimes, be similar is not the key for happiness, is the beauty of our differences... don't give up on her", he finally encourages me.

"Thanks, Shawn", I replied.

We said our goodbyes for the night and went to our tents, I heard Ellie crying, I asked if I could come in and she cry harder, so I enter without permission, she looks crushed, "hi Ellie, need a friend?", I asked and she frantically nodded and she sobbed.

I let minutes by, she will speak when she feels like talking.

"Why am I not enough?", She blurted

"You are besides a magnificent alpha, you are a strong woman, beautiful, smart, and may I add Latina", I told her with a warm smile, "did you find him?", I asked.

"Yes", she sobs

"Did he dare to reject you?!", I inquired feeling upset, Ellie is one of my best friends since we were kids and I can count with my hands the times I saw her cry, she is tough.
