The Challenge Two Alphas, One Girl

Chapter 14: Alpha Analysis  

Friday’s POV

“Come on, let’s get you some proper food, some protein and vegetables,” he said, looking at my popcorn distastefully.

He pulled me up and led me away from the theatre. There was a restaurant nearby. People stared at us, recognising their Alpha, some greeting him, some scurrying away, heads down.

“Do you like being an Alpha?” I asked him, peering out over my menu at him. He sat opposite me at a booth in Lupine Canines, a restaurant that calculated the grams of protein, carbs and fat in everything for you and put it on the menu so you could feel guilty.

He looked surprised, like no one had ever asked him that before. “I like…being…powerful,” he said, slowly. “Physically and socially.” “And rich?” I added. He snorted. “Ok, sure, Friday,” he said patronisingly.

“If you weren’t an alpha, just a regular werwolf with a regular job, not a pack leader or warrior and you’d found out I was your mate, would you still have rejected me for being wolf-less?” I asked. I was not sure why I cared, but I did.

“No, of course, not,” he said, without a second thought. “No one would care who my mate was, in that case. The purpose of my mate would be…my own pleasure and no one else’s approval.”

“Whose approval? Your parents?” I asked, in terms of whose approval he was looking for. “Yes, and the wider community of werewolves,” he said. Igave him a scenario.

“If you win the challenge, and Thaddeus goes back to Berryndale, I’d still be the same wolf-less unimpressive girl you rejected,” I said plainly.

The thought of Thaddeus returning to his pack, leaving me behind in Marigold, like I’d never existed, made me feel physically sick. That stirring was back, it wanted to find Thaddeus and hold him, make sure he was real and well and here still.

“My brain rejected you. My body and my wolf were going crazy. They hate me now. I’m at war with myself,” he said.
