Hiding The Alpha

The Chioce

I laid on my bed, clothes on, backpack packed, make-up done, almost ready for school. All I needed to do was figure out how to tell him that I chose him without upsetting the other. It's obvious they are both in the same pack and their thoughts would be shared. No matter who I chose the other would be upset. hopefully he won't be upset and just let it go. I know he won't but a girl can only dream.

Adam drove me to school and obviously Candy is with us. I sat in the front and obviously Candy tried to fight with me on it and failed. Obviously she is now sitting in the back pouting like a child. Her struggle is real. 

Hehe I love that word. Struggle. It's funny to me. Struggle level=Real.

Off task. I should be thinking of the possibilities. Will Quinn get over the fact I'm not choosing him. More like can't. I should just tell him that I can't be his mate because of his dad. Then he would most likely kill his dad. He would regret it and if he has any siblings then they would hate him, future Alpha or not. Maybe I should just reject him and be happy with Howard. Then Quinn would kill him. I just can't win.

Why did finding my mate have to cause problems?

We got to school and I walked to Howard's locker. If I feel the small spark then I will tell him. I sighed, leaning against his locker. I hope he comes to school today. When the warning bell rang I decided to just go to class.

First period went by fast considering nothing exciting happened. I didn't feel like going to my next class so I just went to a random janitor closet and sat on a chair. Maybe if I concentrate on Howard I can tell him to come to me through a link since we are second chance mates. 

I concentrated on Howard for like 5 minutes. I saw his face but no contact. Looks like I'll have to ask Quinn. I concentrated on him and within a minute I was in his head. Again he was thinking about me and wondering why he felt this way towards a human. I wonder if I can talk to him.

'Quinn?' I asked.

'What? Who is this?' I could tell his Alpha was on guard, but he enjoyed my voice.

'Don't worry. I'm a friend, not a foe. I wanted to know if Howard came to school today, I need to talk to him.'

Why would this person want to know about my soon to be Beta? How would someone not even in my pack be able to use a mind link with me? It seems like I've heard that voice before, but where? More importantly why do I enjoy the sound of this voice? he thought. I sighed. Must my maye be so complex.

'All of those questions will be answered. Please tell me if Howard is here or not.'

'Mate. Your my mate! Why do you want to know where Howard is? Where are you? I have to find you.' I can tell he walked out of the class trying to find my scent. My hidden scent.

'I will tell who I am if you tell me my answer.'

'He didn't come.'

I cut off our link and sighed. He heard my thoughts when I said mate. Damn. I hate making promises I don't keep. I can just give a hint, not my name or anything. I turned back on our link.

Why won't my mate tell me who she is? he thought.

'Tell your dad to stop hunting for me so he can take my pack. It's hurting me.' I told him. He was quiet. Either thinking and putting the pieces together, or getting over the shock.

'Your Alpha Turner.'

'Yes.'

'Baby, I'm sorry. I'll tell him to stop. I'll take over the Alpha position if I have to. If it gets you out of danger I will do anything. Please tell me where you are so I can hold you.'

'I can't.'

'Why? I will never let any harm come to you. Are you across your boarder?'

'I can't tell you. I've already said too much.'

'Baby I won't reject you. I've already seen your picture. You have beautiful jet black hair and big brown puppy dog eyes. My dad had showed me pictures of what you possibly look like and that one stood out the most. I can't stop looking at it. Maybe with you I can figure out why I have feelings for a human.' I cut off the link. Hopefully he doesn't know how to open it. 

So he's seen an old picture of me, before I dyed my hair. Before my 15th birthday. Before my parents died. Good thing I dyed my hair, I just have to wear my green contacts everyday.

I ran to the woods. When I think I was far enough, I stripped out of my clothes stuffing them in my backpack. I ran to my pack house as fast as possible. No doubt that Quinn caught my scent when I shifted. His wolf would've taken over and been chasing me.

I heard the foot prints behind me and ran faster. he was probably a little less than a mile away. Me having just started my training, I'm slower than him, no doubt. I reached my boared just in time. If I still had to run then he would've seen me. He reached the boarder and some of my pack members were there, warning him to not come across the boarder.

'Don't kill him, he might be your Alpha one day. He's my mate but the Alpha son of Alpha Carter. Just don't let him cross the boarder and get to me.'

'Alpha, we have to submit to him. He is our soon to be Alpha.' Jae said. I turned my wolfy head to his black wolf that has brown highlights.

'I'm your current Alpha. I COMMAND YOU to NOT let him past, no matter what.' I growled at them.

I opened the link to Quinn. 'Leave. Get away from my packs boarder.' I ordered him. I know my Alpha commands won't work on him, but a girl can try right?

'Mate!' He growled at me. I knew his wolf had taken over.

'Leave.' I told my pack. They nodded and left to the pack house. I shifted out of my pure white wolf, and hurriedly put on my clothes. Every shift I do, turns my hair back to it's natural jet black. 'Shift.' I told him through the link I made. He obeyed and shifted. I turned around, going to a tree we hid clothes in and got him some shorts. I turned back to him and threw the shorts at him.

He put them on, and looked at me. I kept my face blank while his face held love and lust.

"Your beautiful." he told me. I blushed and looked down. "May I cross the boarder? I need to hold you and feel the sparks. I need to mark you. I need to start the mating process. Mate you. Then while my Beta takes care of my Alpha stuff, I hold and protect you while you carry my pups. Please, I know I just met you, but I love you already. Your perfect." I love seeing that smile on his face. I looked into his pleading eyes that held so much love for me. I hate the position we are in.

"Go back to school Quinn. I will talk to you later. I have Alpha business."

"I should be taking care of that for you, when I become your mate you will never have to take care of Alpha business."

"Leave Quinn. Please." I gave him my big puppy dog eyes. He nodded sadly and left.

I walked back to the pack house and called a meeing. I told them the situation. Howard will join this pack and become their Alpha. Being Quinn's mate is too risky.
