His Alpha

Chapter 5: leave it in the past

It's been a few days since I lashed out in front of everyone. I didn't leave my office. I felt embarrassed how in acted. In stead of acting like a mature Alpha, I instead acted like a little kid.  I closed my mind link, so I won't be talking to anyone in my pack. I don't want to speak to them yet.

I lost in my thoughts when I heard a knock on the door.

"Come in", I say sternly as I fix my posture and look like an Alpha.

When the door opens, I see it's Chase (the guy who disrespected me) enter my office. He closes his door behind him. He clears his throat before he began speaking.

"Alpha, I want to apologize for my actions. I didn't mean to say anything rude to you or behind your back. You see, my mate and I are trying to have a child and we came back from the doctors office that day who terrible news", he says then takes a deep breath.

"What happened?!" I asked concerned. Even though he disrespected me in front my pack, he is still part of my pack. Whoever is in my pack, is my family.

"The doctor told us that my Amelia (his mate) was infertile. I have been in a bad since then. Amelia was crying and blaming herself that she can't bare me children....and I hate seeing her upset. And so I took my anger out on you" he says as tears start running down his cheek.

I get up and walk towards him and pull him into a hug. Fuck, I feel like complete shit right now. To my surprise he hugs me back. I thought he would have pushed me away. I can hear him cry even harder on my shoulder.

"I-I'm s-s-sorry A-A-Alpha. I j-just——" he starts to cry even more. I start to pat him on his back, trying to calm him down.

"Shhhhh, it's okay Chase. I'm sure there are other ways for you and Amelia to have children. There are aways other options" I say reassuring him. He starts to sniffle as he starts to calm down. I give him a tight hug before letting go.

"I should be the one saying sorry Chase. I haven't been the best Alpha for this pack." I say looking at the ground embarrassed. "Don't say that Mel. You are one of the best Alpha's there ever can be. You are a literal copy of Easton. Don't listen to assholes like me." He chuckles.

"You're not an asshole Chase. We all have sour moments" I say as I look up at him. We both share a laugh at how childish we acted a few days ago.

"Let's put the past behind us and start fresh?" He asks?

"Of course!" I chuckle.

We share another hug and then Chase said he had to go and check on Amelia. I excused him and I went back to work.
********************
It's been a few weeks since my little out break with Chase. We both moved on and are back on good terms again. But now it's time for me and my pack to get ready to go to school.

It's our Senior year in NYU. I'm studying to get my nurses degree. Ever since I was a little girl I wanted to be like my mom. She was a nurse. I loved seeing her in her scrubs and how she had her badge.

My dad is a business man with numerous successful businesses. He is currently in Florida dealing with his business down there. It's only my father and I. After Easton passed, my mom out of nowhere just pick up and left us. My father was devastated. He loved my mother a lot. But she just left and she left everything.

But that doesn't matter. Daddy has moved on and he isn't depressed anymore. He would have drink his sorrows away. That was until he accidental slapping while he a drunk. After that he never touch alcohol ever again. He still hold in on to that guilt. I try to tell him that it's okay. I understand that he was in a dark place cause I was too. We both lost two important people in our lives.

I am standing in front of the mirror looking at myself. Everyone told me that I look like a Easton. We both have Ash blond hair and violet eyes. We resemble our mother more then our father.

As I look at myself, I don't like what I see. I see my arms are big. My thighs are big and I have some stomach fat. I feel so ugly seeing myself. I don't look like those Victoria Secret models. I don't feel comfortable in my own body.

Whenever I wear a dress, I don't feel comfortable. I feel big while I'm in one and I don't feel....beautiful

"Come on girl. Let's go to school" Elli mind links me. I take a long deep breath before I head out and meet Elli and my pack at our bikes. We exchanged a few words before heading to our bikes and drive off.

Once we made it to the university, every one was look at us. I mean why wouldn't they? My pack and I are the most respected group in the country. But of course our bikes are making a lot of noises.

We head inside and I saw that we are 30 minutes early. "Yo, I'm starving as fuck. I didn't eat any breakfast, I'm going to the cafeteria. Who wants to come?" I ask Elli and the guys. They all look at me and smile. We got to the cafe and thank god there isn't a line. I fucking hate waiting in lines. But when I saw what they were serving, I suddenly lost my appetite. I look over and saw an Apple, so I took it.

"Is that all you will have Alpha?" Elli asks me concerned. I smile at her and tell her that I'm okay.

Then we walk inside the cafe and the smell of vanilla and honeydew scent. Without my wolf saying anything, I knew that my mate was close by. My wolf got excited, but I got angry. As I scanned the room, I saw......Landons friends laughing at something and they are sitting down at my table!

I stomp my way towards them and they all stop laughing as soon I slam my palm on the table. "What are you three doing at my table?!" I say through grinding my teeth together. They all look at me with a blank look on their faces. Then one of them speaks out.

"You must be Melody. The name is Hugo" says the guy who has tattoos running down his right arm with his ears pierced. He is very muscular.

"I don't give a crap who you are. How do you know my name?" I growl at him. He begins to laugh as so the other guys too. "We are a friends of Landon" he says with a smirk.

"L-Landon?!" I say speechlessly. No wonder that amazing scent smelled familiar. My heart started to beat fast as I hear his name.

"He is here! Our mate is here!!" My wolf excitedly says to me.

"No Gen, he isn't here remember?! He left us 5 years ago. He isn't here" I remind my wolf. I turn her off as I don't feel like hearing her talk more about Landon.

"Whatever" I say to this Hugo guy and I stomp away. I quickly mind link Elli telling her that I'll be at the library until our first class begins.

I walk into the library and I have a smile on my face. I love reading books. It takes me away from the real world and into this fantasy world. I prefer to read romance novels or mystery books. As I look through the shelf, the smell of vanilla and honeydew grows stronger by the second. Then I feel someone grab my waist and pushes me against the shelf. Before I can say anything, I am greeted with the most beautiful emerald green eyes.

I knew right away who it was...and now my wolf is even more excited then before.

More chapters to come! Stay tuned!
