The Alpha's Female

I turned toward her, waiting to embrace her. Waiting to touch her. My hands twitched with anticipation. She looked so dainty, so elegant. She looked like a goddess. I felt my breath catch in my throat. I could have cried in that moment. I had been waiting for this moment. I had never thought it would come. I've waited for you, I thought.

She's now seventy feet away. I can't breath.

Sixty-five feet. A smile broke out onto my face.

Sixty feet away. My heart was beating 100 miles a minute.

Fifty feet-

BOOM!

I'm thrown back ten feet, in her direction.

I felt my skin scraping against the gravel. I felt the shrapnel rake across my skin.

And then I worried about her.

Everything went black.
