The Alpha Who Saved Me

CHAPTER 10

It can’t be..can it? I stare in disbelief at the male standing in the doorway. He’s a bit scruffy but I would know those grey eyes anywhere. Pair it with the dirty blonde hair and that sharp jawline, he hasn’t changed much since I had last seen him three years ago.

“Spencer?” I ask very softly

“Quinn– you’re alive?” He asks incredulously.

I nod, and then run to him, slamming into his open arms just before he wraps them around me. I can’t believe there is another survivor to my pack. I thought I was the only one left, but now I’m ecstatic seeing Spencer alive and well.

“I thought you all were dead!” He holds me close.

“I thought the whole pack was massacred!” I reply back.

A throat clears, and I turn, forgetting all about Cici still being in the room, “Mind telling me who this cutie is?

I laugh at the slight pinkish tint that Cici’s words put on Spencer’s face, “Stop it Cici! This is Spencer Neely, he was my brother’s best friend and future Beta,” i turn back to Spence, “This is Cici Stone, Beta Carter of the Storm River pack’s sister, and my best friend.”

Spence nods, “Nice to meet you, Cici.”

“Same here!” She winks at him.

I roll my eyes, “Don’t mind her forwardness, it’s just how she is,” I say to Spencer before turning back to Cici, ” Apparently, Spencer is the only other living pack member from Dark Moon…”

“Uh, actually, there are about twenty-five of us.” He corrects me, causing me to whip my head back around to him.

“What?! There are twenty-five of you? Where have you been for the last three years, and why didn’t you come to the Storm River pack?” | can’t believe there are so many survivors from my pack.

“None of us were here when the attack happened. If you remember, I was away at Beta camp that month. You were so mad when you found out that I was going to miss your birthday” He smirks.

“Oh my, I had forgotten about that… and that I had a major crush on you back then!” 1 chuckle.

“Yeah, you did! I couldn’t go anywhere without you tagging along.” His grin drops a little bit, “We weren’t sure who to trust. I didn’t know about the attack until I got back a week later. I had seen Alpha Declan and his pack warriors walking around, cleaning up, and I didn’t dare show myself, not knowing what happened for sure. All of us survivors stayed hidden until about a year ago. Once the town was done being rebuilt and we realized that it had been abandoned, we have been squatting here, watching for them to come back, but nobody ever showed up until today.”

I take hold of his hand, “I’m sorry for your loss, Spence. Your family were good people.” I smile softly.

He squeezes my hand, “As were yours, Quinn.”

We stand here in silence for a moment before I speak up. “Well Spence, are you ready to start your Beta duties?” I ask cheerfully.
