An Alpha Story

Chapter 10

I was downstairs in the kitchen preparing breakfast when Mesalla joined me, looking and smelling fresh from his shower.

"The bacon smells good." He said smiling.

"I certainly wish I had something to do with that." I chuckled and he joined in.

"We need to devise a plan on the attack to alpha Roman." He was serious now.

I gulped on nothing. I had been avoiding this topic. I didn't realise it but now I was chocking,on nothing.

"Are you okay?" He was beside me in a instant not to mention with a cup of water.

I drunk it.

"Yes, I'm fine." I cleared my throat. "Like I said before,you can handle that case I would rather keep the memory of my parents death to myself." I continued.

He seemed mesmerised by this,not in a good way.

"I'm sorry. I understand how you feel about all this. It must really disrupt you emotionally." He was now speaking with respect seeing his title to mine." I will handle it and keep you posted." He finished.

Breakfast between us was quiet. When we were done eating, he excused himself to go for a round of runs. This pleased me because I was feeling heavily guilty for leading him on and him being around me wasn't helping one bit.

"Hello?" I stated into the phone about two hours later. It was now eleven o'clock.

"Alpha." Otis said with a tone of respect. Otis now happened to be my third in command. I had seen him around before,but due to how hostile I had been towards a lot of people I hadn't really gotten to know him. Despite knowing he would be my third in command.

"How may I help you? Do you desire my presence in your home?" He asked curiously.

"Yes. I think that will do." I said to him right after,breaking the call.

Within ten minutes he was at my doorstep.

"Alpha." He nodded in respect.

"I need a favour Otis. I know we haven't really spoken before but I think this would be the best time to start." I stated.

He smiled at this. "I agree. I always wanted to be best friends with the alpha." I giggled at this.

"So he has humour." I responded.

"So she laughs." He countered back grinning.

We giggled together.

"Well you can tell me about that favour now,that way I may be of service to you." He said finally.

"Yes about that. I need you to find a number of one Lenny Martins from the BlackThorn pack. It is important though,that you tell no one about this." I said seriously.

He nodded" You can count on my discretion."

"Okay done with that. Now do tell me anything amusing that has happened in the pack? All Mesalla talks about is all the crucial and serious things. Gives me a headache." I grinned. He did so too.

"Well I found my mate!" He said almost shouting with excitement.

I smiled " That is incredible Otis. I am so happy to hear that."

I never really followed the tracks of our third in command family and finding their mates but this was some great news.

"Tell me what is her name?" I asked while motioning him to sit with me.

"Sofia." He said seeming even more happy.

We spoke for about an hour and it seemingly felt like what I desperatly needed to get my mind off things. After that hour,he left to find Lenny's number. I cringed everytime I thought of her. This was why I needed to speak with her.
