Alpha's Nala

Legaxy

If she's SINGLE then why...

But Harry said…

And I thought…

“What's wrong, Dyme?” Ms. Dawn, identifying my sudden turmoil, hastily inquired and I heard a glass cup being placed on a desk.

I dragged my gaze up and halted when I found her bewildered face, with a hint of worry, looking straight at me.

“Single?” I absentmindedly spit.

She didn't understand it at first and instead of discussing it with me, she simply eyed me — a bit dumbfounded at the second.

“Is that a mock or a question, Legaxy?” She finally voices out, raising an eyebrow at me.

“Confirmation.” I plainly replied, my eyes intently scanning her perplexed face.

For some reason, and as quick as she was, she got what I meant that her eyes slowly widened in realization. 

Okay, it's true... But, why declared being SINGLE before?

Surprisingly, at that second, instead of being mad and throw a denial at me, Ms. Dawn looked more… embarrassed.

“Let me guess, Harry told you?” She gave me a sheepish look as she straightened herself up at her seat.

I nodded, my initial shock slowly fading.

“Only a hint” — I wrinkled my nose, recalling the chat — “since he advised me it's better to ask you for the details — if you grant me any, rather than getting it from him... You know, out of pure respect.” 

Hearing this, Ms. Dawn flashed a warm smile.

“Harry and his Beta ways.” She murmured as she shook her head out of amusement. 

Her eyes then shifted from me to the ceiling-to-floor glass windows, looking out at the garden scenery; her eyes were, once again, distant while her face was blank — as if reliving a memory.

As for me, I was momentarily stunned.

“Beta? Like a second in command on a werewolf pack?” I asked, sounding shocked and confused.

“Yes, that kind of Beta.” She responded softly and her eyes move back to stare at me, “Harry was my mates' Beta —”

“Your mate was an Alpha!” I exclaimed while shooting up from my seat.

Unfazed by my reaction, Ms. Dawn simply nodded her head.

“Yes, and it's MATES… as in, plural.” She revised, a light blush appearing on her creamy white cheeks.

Obviously, by now, I'm too shocked to even react to anything. I didn't even bother to scrutinize the pink hue on Ms. Dawn's cheeks and make fun of it because my mind was somewhere else — registering an unexpected and surprising declaration.
