11. My Life

LEO.

Night had fallen and I couldn‘t sleep. Something about seeing her again was fucking with my mind… It was one of the rare fucking days I was able to get home before midnight and just crash, but yeah, isn‘t going to happen.

I frowned, pushing the thought away as I looked down at the Sangue territory from my apartment window.

The glittering lights in the windows of the building were a reminder of how far we had come from the caverns we once resided in.

The mini town was not only a sign of our prosperity, but it was proof of advancement.

Not to mention it was pretty easy on the eyes, with modern buildings, high–tech security, and packed with everything my people needed to thrive in this world.

The Sangue Pack…

One would not think that we were once a pack of rogues, who had been raised and forced to serve one of the most psychotic evil monsters of all time.

Living in torment, fear, and abuse, left its mark on us all, marks that didn‘t just vanish overnight.

We had the highest number of people suffering from PTSD.

Memories of torture and terror didn‘t just leave us…

Even the few who agreed to have their memories removed didn‘t feel as settled as they hoped.

Some things just didn‘t go away…

The dreams that haunted my nights still remained; the abuse, the torture, the fear..

They didn‘t just go away.

I grew up thinking maybe I was fucking weak to not be able to deal with it…

but then I realised it was part of who I was, what helped shape me into the man I am today.

Even if people couldn‘t fucking stand me, I don‘t care.

My pack was my priority, and although we were one family, I still made sure that each one of them was able to fend for themselves and would be able to live alone if the need ever came.

We needed no one else.

A Pack that I ran, yet I did not hold the official title…

A title that Marcel, my father, held.

In fear of my views, he refused to hand it over to me, instead taking the side of his family, staying true to his vow that unless I yielded to the council and found my mate, only then will he deem me worthy as the Alpha.

I would never bow down to the King‘s council, like a coward, I wouldn‘t lie.

That title will be mine.

The last time we talked before he went on holiday I had told him he needed to let me take over but still, he refused…

He wanted me to find my mate, saying only she could guide me and get rid of the hatred within me…

Hatred…

I don‘t really know if I felt it anymore…I felt…numb to it all.

There were only a few things that made me feel anything.

But soon…I was planning to force his hand, until he passed that title to me.I had proven my fucking worth.I was not a child who would obey his dictatorship.

As for a mate…

Fuck, I did not want to become the fucking slave to a woman, but when I saw her in that club…I had lost control.

She had been so fucking appealing, I had been in a meeting when I had noticed her from one of the rooms.

I was with Nikki, and I hadn‘t planned on having fun, didn‘t mean I couldn‘t enjoy the view…but then that same sexy doll had turned out to be my fucking mate.

And the sex…Well if the mark wasn‘t proof of how fucking good she felt and tasted, then I don‘t know what was.

At that moment, I wanted to make her mine forever.

Meant to be mine fucking forever…but she turned out to be none other than a Westwood

Fuck that.

Her father was one of the Elite Eleven, a title that was unofficially given to the strongest Alphas in the country.

And then they act like they aren‘t fucking elite.

Pricks.

When I had found her last night, it had been a fucking coincidence.

We were heading home from a certain trade I had to take care of when I had seen a wolf running through the trees, but it didn‘t look normal, and so we had followed it.

No matter how much I hated the elite, it didn‘t mean I was going to let someone die…even if she wasn‘t my mate…

I hated the odd pull of our broken bond, the fear for her wellbeing as I carried her to my car, driving as fast as I fucking could to get her back here unnerved me.

I hated the feeling…
