The Alpha Who Saved Me

The Alpha Who Saved Me By Stacy Rush Chapter 13

CHAPTER 13

I pace back and forth, nervously, on the porch of Dark Moon’s pack house as I wait for Declan to arrive. Not only am I getting sworn in, but I’ll be meeting my pack for the first time in three years. I’m not sure if I will remember any of them or if they will remember me. I know three years isn’t a long time, but I was more of a flighty girl in my high school days, never being in one place for too long and always hanging with friends instead of worrying about pack stuff. Will the pack even accept me as their Alpha? Spencer had told me how some of them had tried talking him into stepping up as Alpha since, technically, he was next in line, but he told me that it never felt right to him. I would have understood if he had, it was his right.

Someone chuckles behind me, and I jump as I spin around. I slap the arm of my new Beta, “What the *, Spence!?”

“Sorry, Alpha,” he laughs,” I figured you would have sensed me.”

I furrow my brow because he’s right, “I apologize, you’re right, I should have sensed you behind me. I was in deep thought I guess.” I need to be more careful in the future; it’s dangerous for a person in my position to be oblivious to their surroundings.

“You’re going to walk a hole in the porch if you continue pacing. Why are you so nervous?” Spencer tilts his head as he asks.

“Oh, I don’t know, Spence, maybe it’s because I’m about to become an Alpha to a pack that I don’t even know!” I throw my hands up frantically

“Calm down, Alpha…”

“Please don’t call me that.”

“Call you what… Alpha?” Spencer asks confused.

“Yes! We are old friends, practically family; I want you to call me what you have always called me.”

“Sorry, but it would be very disrespectful to call you Pain in My *.” He grins.

I scoff and slap him again, “You did not call me that!”

He laughs, “Oh, yes, I did. You just never heard me!”

I give him the evil eye and place my hands on my hips, “I was young and impressionable back then! I thought you had hung the moon and just wanted to be around you.”

My Beta grins shamelessly. “I’m pretty sure all the girls did.”

“Oh…” i take a step toward the *Beta, but then I stop and turn when I hear a throat clearing.

Standing at the bottom of the porch steps is my best friend looking confused, a scowling Alpha behind her and to the left, and a smirking Alpha heir behind her and to the right. I curse myself for being caught unaware once again.

“Are we interrupting something?” Gavin asks amusingly as he broadens his grin.

“Nothing of importance.”

“I wouldn’t say that Alpha,” Spencer muses, and turns to the three newcomers, “Alpha Quinn, here, wants me to call her by what I’ve always called her growing up.”
