《The Alpha's Beta (BOOK 1)》Chapter 33
Advertisement
It been about 2 weeks since Cain's been gone, unfortunately I found out he's still alive and dealing with business at another pack and will be back in about another 10 days, but that's still 10 days before he could get killed, so all hope isn't lost.
During the 2 weeks, I've been going about my business as usual, I've been joining in with the pack training as much as I can, they can't stop me participating on the side – I outrank everyone, so no one is in a position to argue with me. I just have to ignore the look of some eagle eyed people, and have to ignore the wolf whistles, how original! My sparing in the evening is going well, now that Ronan has an idea on how well I can fight he does make things quite harder for me.
We've also been getting quite close, to the fact there was one incident where he decided he'd throw me in the indoor pool simply because he found it funny, but I thought that I'd play a trick on him and pretend that I couldn't swim that well. He naturally jumped in to 'rescue' me but ended up getting dunked under water instead. It then turned into us splashing water at each other until he swam right up to me and picked me up, my arms naturally going round his neck.
Naturally us being so close and touching sent sparks straight through us making us coming to a complete stop to look at each other. It didn't take Ronan long before he had me pushed up the side of the pool with me still in his arms with us kissing frantically, his hand gripping my arse and me trying to get him even closer by pulling on his wet t-shirt. I open my eyes briefly and break away from the kiss to find Ronan's wolfs pitch black eyes staring me down warning me to challenge his decision. I quickly jump out of the pool to see how serious he is about this. Naturally he's out and back up to me as quick as anything, issuing me a low warning growl, he doesn't want me leaving him, and in that instant my whole lower body practically gets red hot. Why does this guy have so much of an effect on me?

It's a shame it never went any further than that, after Ronan went to kiss me again, he got a message from Jake to say he was needed, even at that time of night, hmph!
As I decided to stop day dreaming of that amazing night with Ronan and actually finish eating my breakfast, I see Olivia walk in and come up to me. She's got really confident these last 2 weeks, and actually tries to talk to others now rather than just keeping her head down; she comes to me if she feels unsure of things and just asks for advice.
"Morning Kara, I wanted to know if you were going to the party tonight?"
Well that's my head lifting up and looking at her, I love a good party, and nothing fun has happened while I've been here.
"Party? What party?"
She lets out a little giggle, clearly amused by my excitement and nosiness.
"Oh, the pack likes to throw a party when the Alpha's away"
Well, that obviously says a lot about the fun levels that Cain allows for his pack, they actually throw a party when he's gone haha!
"yeah of course I'm gonna go, I will just need to head out first for an outfit, as I didn't get to pack my stuff when I left so don't have anything exciting to wear"
"That's ok, give me 10 minutes and I'll come with you"
I nod and we both go out separate ways. I head up to my room and grab my purse and then sigh in defeat. I wish I had my car with me, I don't really want to ask another pack member as I'm sure I could find one that someone's not using and would ... like to lend it to me.
I immediately run downstairs and into the garages.YES! Cain went to the other pack in wolf form; his range rover is right infront of me!

Toothpick
“Hello! My humble audience! I, the Bard of the North, am going to tell you a tale. Nothing new, nothing old. A story of a hero, some may say, others a poor boy who was hated by the world.” The storyteller paused as he waited, right timing was everything when telling a story. Pacing… Too slow and the audience became bored then left without tossing even the smallest of coins. If he spoke too fast and rushed the story. It would leave the audience confused and having no reason to be impressed. So like any good storyteller, the Bard has to do a balancing act of sorts. Not too slow, not too fast. Just perfectly in the middle. “In a shattered country in the south, a novice princeling has the ambition to mend a torn tapestry that is his birthplace. Struggling to fend off those who would usurp the throne in an unending civil war spanning centuries. A mercenary that left only death in his wake, unable to stave off the monotony and peace of life. He looks back at the path laden with bodies, wondering if it was all worth it. Wandering souls summoned by a madman, travel away from a wasteland in a foreign land, the first alone, the others as companions. A deity, ancient in her years, waiting to be freed from a duty she no longer enjoys. For all these people and their stories, none are the hero of this tale. No, the hero is not grand, not wise, not ready.. he was punished for nothing of his doing, who was an outcast that was unloved by many, including his father.” This was always the big reveal novices use to jump off into their story. He did not start here, instead, like any good fishermen, he set the bait and waited until the fish bit before pulling. As he saw the audience's eyes focus, he then started the backstory. The harness, that stopped the listeners from having metaphorical whiplash. The foreshadowing. “But that is not where the story starts. No, not even the hero's birth. Where the story begins, is the boredom of the deity, a deity many know of. She who hunts for the impossible, the guide for those who have lost the path, the Huntress of Mallon--” A small pause, a short breath. “--All old names for a single powerful being that has roamed the grounds of this continent longer than any line of kings or queens, lords or ladies. A being of worship for many an individual…” One last breath. And he began singing the first verse.
