The Alpha Who Saved Me

CHAPTER 145
We circle around each other, waiting for the other to strike first. It's actually quite boring, so I stop and put my hand on my hip as I
cock it out to the side. I don't say anything but cock a brow in askance.
She smirks, "What, do I make you nervous?"
"Are you fucking serious right now? I'm bored! How about your hurry up and start it so I can finish it. I've got two babies at home
waiting for their mama." That does exactly what I was hoping for.
Lila screeches like a banshee and flings her whole body at me. Bending at my knees, my shoulder goes right into her gut and I
stand, taking her with me as I push her up and over my head. The bitch lands on her backside, cursing and glaring at me.
Grinning, I motion for her to come at me again with my hand.
"I don't have all day..." I remind her.
Once again she comes at me and I send her flying with an uppercut. I can tell she hasn't had much training, because for one,
she's very sloppy, and two, she was always on her back for the warriors, fucking them, instead of on her feet training with them.
There are signs that her wolf, Lina, wants to break free, but she keeps her back for the time being.
She actually surprises me when she comes at me with a right, but changes it at the last second and hooks me with her left.
There isn' t much power to her punch, though, and the worst it does is make my lip bleed.
"Nice move, too bad, a pup can hit harder than that, though." I
Dividing into pages now antagonize.
"Fuck you, I'm a lover not a fighter!" Lila growls.
"No, you're a whore, not a lover..." I jump and do a roundhouse kick, knocking her on her ass once again, "Are you ready to give
up?"

"Never!" She then snickers, "You know, it wasn't that long ago that he might have been calling me by your name, but it was MY
body that he was getting off with. He still knew that I am a great time in bed!"
"Oh, is that when you drugged him? You gave him performance drugs; of course, he's going to get off, all cocks know a cum
dumpster when they see one! That's all you are, Lila. You fucked up being with your true mate, and now your sorry ass has.

nobody."
Lina breaks free and lands on all fours in front of me, but I don't even flinch. In fact, I decide to stay in my human form for a bit,
even though Tala is biting at the bit to get her paws dirty as well. When the other wolf comes at me, I grab her by the scruff and
toss her off to the side as though she weighs nothing. Her own momentum is what takes her as far as it does and has her
shaking her head back and forth before baring her teeth at me.
She comes back at me, but veers off at the last minute as she slices her claws down my side. It burns like a bitch, but I ignore it
as I growl at her, "Is that the worst you can do?"
When she comes for me again, I grab her wolf by the neck and slam her down onto the ground, keeping pressure on her throat
as I lean in, "Submit and give up the title! It was never yours to begin with, Lila, Why are you making this harder than it has to
be?" I snar!.
'I will never give it up to the likes of you!' I hear her say in my head, and then somehow, I miss her lifting one of her paws until I
feel it digging into my lower back on the right side.
"OW, you bitch!" Tala comes forward, and without further ado, sinks her teeth into Lina's neck and shakes her around like a rag
doll. When she finally spits her out, we have the two bands of muscle tissue that make up her vocal cords, hanging from our
mouth.
Lina's form remains still as it lies on the ground in front of me. Spitting her vocal cords to the ground, Tala picks up the dead wolf
by the scruff and carries it over to where the Beta's are recording the whole challenge. She drops the wolf onto the ground at our
feet, and still in wolf form, Tala stares at the camera as if she's looking right at the Elders.

"Happy now?"
Tala then turns and we walk towards our waiting mate. A scream is heard from the crowd and a she-wolf comes running out into
the open and dropping to her knees in front of the dead wolf. Shifting back to my human form, Declan helps me put on his t-shirt
that hangs down to my knees, as we glance at one another and then back at the familiar woman.
"Is that the woman who claimed to be Lila's next of kin at the Center?" I'm shocked to say the least, but it is actually all starting to
make sense now.
"I don't know, but I think it just might be." Declan says as he grabs my hand and leads me back over to Lila's dead wolf and the
crying woman.

We come to stand behind her and I clear my throat, "Anita?"
"You killed her! You killed my beautiful niece!" The older nurse states accusingly.
"We gave her a choice, Anita, and I asked her again during the fight, but she refused to give up." I'm trying very hard to be
understanding to this woman who was always so nice to me, even though, it's now clear, that she's the one that was helping Lila
with everything, and not Dr. Langly; he was telling us the truth.
"All she ever wanted was the love of the Alpha, that's it!" She then turns and glares at Declan, "You had a child together, why
couldn't you at least try and love her; why couldn't you choose her? You liked her enough to take her to your bed..."
"Watch what you are saying to your Alpha, Anita!" this coming from Beta Carter.
The she-wolf scoffs, "He's no longer an Alpha of mine! I will be moving on and finding me a pack where the Alpha doesn't take a
young woman's innocence and then toss her to the side!"
Declan and I both chuckle at the same time, and then I raise my voice towards the Storm River pack members, "Raise your hand
if you have been having sexual relations with Lila Benton for years!" Literally all the unmated warriors above the age of eighteen
raise their hands, smirking. I turn back to Anita, and cock a brow, "You were saying something about her innocence?"
Declan places his hand around my waist, "It's fine, my Queen, she is mourning," he then turns his attention back to the woman
still huddled over Lila's body, "You may leave, but not until an investigation can be done. There is still the matter of you helping
your niece to deceive both myself and Luna Quinn. I might also add, that even if you do leave my pack, I am now your King, and
you will still treat me with respect, or you can follow your niece into the afterlife."
My mate doesn't wait for the old nurse to respond before turning to me and just as he and Duke said they would, he tosses me
over his shoulder and carries me like a sack of potatoes all the way back to the pack house.
