The Alpha's a Girl!?! by Rose Cooper (most read book in the world .txt) 📕

wake up the other guys and have them help me. Titon was walking a foot behind me. When I got back to the tents the guys were all awake, Nathan and Jason were cooking food over the fire for dinner. Tom was setting up the other tents and Sam was getting a first aid kit. He put a blanket on the ground next to the fire and I set the girl down on top of it. Josh and Lander were standing sheepishly next to Titon.

Sam asked what happened and I told him. Tom and Sam brothers, the minute I finished the stori=y they both spat at Titon Josh and Landers. Nathan had tears in his eyes. “Are you alright Nathan?” Jason asked. “Yeah uhm, that’s how my mate died. Someone raped her to death. So I’m just glad she’s okay, even if she tried to kill us. Titon, you’re not getting any food.” 

 

We all ate after I addressed the girl's wounds. She was still asleep so I put her in my tent with me. The next day she was still sleeping so I carried her while we all made our way back. If we used a car this would only take one day, but then we would be easy to track. 

Three days and two nights since we kidnapped my mate and she still hasn’t woken up. We all eat at the fire together every night. Everytime we’re all eating we can hear the girl talking in her sleep. It doesn’t make sense what she’s saying. But we all listen anyway. After tonight we'll be at the base tomorrow. It’ll only take a few hours to get there. 

 

Sam and Tom were in the tent and the rest of us were by the fire eating dinner. They came out at the same time and both started talking at once. “She’s talking even louder today,” “I think she’s in pain.” “She won’t stop moving.” “Okay okay what are you saying?” They both looked at Jason. Before they could respond to him we heard an ear piercing scream. I stood up and saw the girl coming out of the tent. She was on her butt pushing herself backwards with her feet while staring at something in the tent. She was breathing heavily.

 

I walked over to her and put my hand on her shoulder. She jumped and rolled out of my touch. Jumping into a defensive stance with lightning speed before grabbing at her stomach and falling back to the ground. She was bent down and panting. The other guys were watching from the fire as I crouched in front of her. “Hey uhm, are you alright? Do you want some food?” She looked up into my eyes like she was searching for something and nodded. 

 

Once she was seated by the fire and eating we were all staring at her dead silent. She pulled her hair to one side and downed a bottle of water in seconds. “So uhm, you’ve been asleep for a while, but we were wondering what your name is?” Sam asked in a quiet voice. She looked at him and shrugged her shoulders. “What’s the point? I’m here cause I killed two of your guys, so I’ll probably end up dead. It’s gonna be easier for everyone if we don’t grow any attachments or anything.” She was so nonchalant about her death. 

 

I couldn’t stand it anymore and unmasked my scent. Not even a second after she looked at me, mouth open, just staring. “Uhm, did we miss something here?” Without looking at Nathan she just said, “he’s my mate.” I looked at her and smiled, “so, your name?” “Victoria, but most people call me V.” “I’m Lucas, this is Sam, Tom, Nathan, Jason, Josh, Landers, and.. Titon.” When she saw Titon she stared at him for a few seconds and then Titon let out a groan, she furrowed her brows as the two of them stared straight into each other's eyes. He started to cry slightly and we all watched, unsure of what was going on between these two. Victoria let out a sharp breath and looked away from him. “Mmm that’s why.” I looked at her. “That’s why what? What just happened.” She looked at me for a few moments. “Well I didn’t plan on telling you guys, but I don’t see why not now, seeing as how you’re my mate I guess you should know.”

 

We all sat and listened to her intently. “I’m not an Eta. My parents are the Gammas of the pack and I’m the Alpha. No, my brother didn’t die. I am the first and only child of theirs, making me the first female alpha in history. I shifted at 9 not 10, I can force people to mind link with me. Think of the mind link like a house. In my head I can see a map of all the houses within a few hundred feet of me. Every house represents the mind of someone near me. Everyone’s door to their house is always locked. A normal wolf can walk up to someone's house and knock. The owner of the house can either open the door or leave it locked. Like if someone denied a mind link with you. I guess you could say that when I knock on someone's door, if they don’t open it, I can kick it down. Some people's doors are thicker than others. When I enter a persons ‘house’ I see three doors. The first allows us to mind link, the second lets me see a person's memories, a;; of them. The third door lets me feel what the house owner is feeling at that moment. 

 

So if I enter door three and the house owner is really sad, I feel sad, if they’re feeling pleasure I feel pleasure, if they’re being tortured not only will I feel the pain they feel, but the tortue inflicted on them is inflicted on me. If I go in door two the owner of the house can see what I see when I go through their memories. When I enter door one I can mind the link just like anyone else. I can force people to let me do this. I can also do this from farther away than a normal person. So earlier I was going into … Titans memories to see what made him the way he is. That’s also how I forced Jason and Lucas to mind link with me earlier. The thing about this is a person can't stop me from entering their mind, but depending on the thickness of their door depends on how much energy I use. The only downside is that on one hand, if my energy is low or there are… Special circumstances, the person can trap me in their mind, not for long but long enough that it could mean my death. Also if I feel unwell or say in extreme pain it takes a lot more energy for me to do it than normal. That’s why I was sleeping for so long.”

 

We all stared at her for a moment. “Okay that’s strange. But that doesn't’ explain why you kept talking in your sleep, or why you were screaming when you woke up.” I glared at Josh, “what doesn't make sense?” I groaned. “Well that’s because..” Victoria looked nervous for a moment and then took a deep breath. “That’s because I can, sorta see the dead. Well in my sleep the ‘gods’ talk to me. The moon goddess for example has spoken to me quite a few times. I can’t control when we talk in my sleep, she decides. Just like with the other gods. I can also see the dead though. In my sleep and when I’m awake. They talk to me. They can’t touch me though. But sometimes I can’t tell if they’re reel or dead. When I’m around other people they usually don’t show up, or if they do it’s only the “good ones”. When I’m alone they all show up, the good and bad. Always different situations with different requests. Most of the time they are asking me to help them finish some of their business so they can move on. Sometimes they just want to talk. Other times, they try to get me to do… bad things. Sometimes if I’m upset and alone, there’ll be a dead person trying to make me more sad, they feed off of my emotions and energy like leeches in a way. They can only do it when I’m alone and let them. Well I don’t let them but sometimes I forget to put up my wall against them, or it falls and I don't notice.” 

 

“So just now?” She looked at Sam and nodded. “How long?” “What?” “How long have you been able to do this?” I asked her. “Well I could do the mind link things since I was 16, and the gods since I was 17, and the dead people thing just after I turned 18.” “How old are you?” “18, 19 in a few weeks. You? Don’t tell me you’re really young or old. That would be just my luck.” I laughed, “ha no, I just turned 20 a month ago.” We all continued to eat in a comfortable silence. Tom put out the fire and we all went back to our tents. “You can take the sleeping bag.” She looked at me and looked at the bag, then back at me. “Nope.” “What?” She got into the sleeping bag and moved to one side. “We can share the sleeping bag.” “Uhm, are sure that won't be too weird for you?” “Eh, it’s fine. You’re my mate after all. I mean sure you’re a stranger, but you did save me. Even though you guys kidnapped me, but still.” I chuckled and shook my head. 

 

I crawled into the sleeping bag and zipped it up. Once I was all the way I noticed how small Victory is compared to me. I smiled and put my head on my arm. I was facing towards her and she was facing towards me. We stared into each other's eyes for what felt like hours. She let out a soft breath and I could see it in the cold air. She moved closer to me and turned around so I was spooning her. I pushed my chest against her back and put my arm over her waist. She cuddled her head closer into my neck and let out a sigh. I breathed in her scent and smiled. This beautiful woman is my mate. 

 

Then it hit me. The Rogue king would kill her if he knew what she was. But if we left now he would send his hunters after us. He knows where we are, and when we’ll get there tomorrow. There’s no way out of this. I let go of my breath and fell asleep with Victoria's scent in my nose.

 

Victoria

 

I woke up with Lucas’s arm draped over me. I could leave right now, be free to go home. I want to so badly. If I stay I’ll only get hurt more. But I can’t go, not now that I met him. I sighed and closed my eyes. Better enjoy the moment
