The Alpha Who Saved Me

“But we were good together, Declan!” She stomps her foot like a child.

“IT’S ALPHA! How many times do I have to tell you this? The only thing good about us was when I was

able to relieve myself and then send you home afterwards. You can’t seriously think that I would

choose a pack whore as my Luna willingly, do you?” I snort, “No, my Luna would have been mine

alone, not shared within the pack.”

Lila kicks up one side of her mouth and glances over at Quinn, “Guess you’re out of the running now

too, since you’re fucking his cousin now.”

When I go to grab her once more, Quinn lays her hand on my arm and stops me as she steps forward

and crosses her arms. The smirk that forms on Quinn’s face can’t mean anything good.

“I wouldn’t have been out of the running had you not fucked him over and tricked him into getting you

pregnant. But hey, at least he got to have a piece of me to remember always.” I watch as she leans

close into Lila’s ear. Oh Goddess, is she really going to tell her? Straining my ears, I barely catch what

is said, “He got the one thing that you could never give him my virginity.”

Lila jerks back, her eyes landing on me, “She’s lying! Tell me she’s lying!”

I shrug

“When?”

“The night before I left, Oh, I guess it was that morning as well.” Quinn winks at me and I can’t fathom

why she is revealing all of this to Lila.

“You fucked her even though you knew I was pregnant with your pup?” She shrieks.

“No, Lila, I didn’t fuck her. Quinn and I made love all night long. That’s what happens when you love

someone.” I smirk at the horrified look on the she-bitch’s face.

“Well…She tries saying something but keeps stopping herself because she’s at a loss for words.

Finally, she gets an evil smile on her face and turns back to Quinn, “Well, you can never give him an

heir. Beat that bitch!”

Oh shit, she did not just bring that up! I know that it’s a sensitive subject for Quinn, but what surprises

me is that the female Alpha holds her own and puffs her chest out. I don’t know if it’s only me, but it’s

almost as if Quinn as grown in the last few seconds. She looks stronger and much scarier.

“You think so, Lila? If I didn’t have a man of my own, I could swoop your Alpha up in a heartbeat and

give him an heir as well. May not be the heir to this pack, but you forget that I am now an Alpha. Any

child of mine will be an heir to my pack.”

I can see the steam leave Lila as she takes in Quinn’s words, “Quinn will always be the better woman,

the better Luna, and the better choice, Lila. When will you give up this pissing contest? Quinn knows

that she is the better choice, but you know what? None of this matters because Quinn and I are only

friends. This is between you and me, and nobody else.” There are two warriors standing by the door

and I nod at them. “I’m thinking some more time in the cells for this little stunt you pulled is in order.”

“What? No, please! I’m sorry, I will never do it again!” She begs me.

I ignore her pleas and turn to Quinn, “I’m going to grab some clothes, please meet me in my office.”

“Alright. She smiles at me and then turns back to Lila, “I have never been a threat to you Lila. I left the

pack so Declan could try and build his family. This is all his decision, and your actions never helped

you. You need to leave me out of this. I’ve moved on, and I’m happy.” Lila doesn’t say a word, so Quinn

turns and follows me up the stairs.

I close the door to my office and lean against it, crossing one foot over the other. I threw on the first

thing I saw which was a pair of basketball shorts and a t-shirt. I’m still bare footed as I sweep my eyes

over the woman by the window.

“Why did you do it? You didn’t have to, you know.” My voice is soft.

“I’m so tired of her going on and on about what she has versus what I have. I shouldn’t have stooped to

her level,” she looks down before turning her head towards me and grinning, “but it felt so good rubbing

it in.”

I choke on a laugh and push myself away from the door, “We could have kept it a secret, nobody

needed to know.”

“I’m not ashamed of what we did, Declan.” She furrows her brows at me.

“I know, and I’m not either, but that doesn’t mean that we have a duty to tell others that we shared a

night together. What will Gavin say when he hears about it?”

“He already knows.” She looks back out the window, “We don’t keep anything from each other, and

when he asked if there was anything between me and you, I told him.”

“What did he say?” I can only imagine what my cousin thought. I hope he didn’t give her too much grief.

She smirks but doesn’t turn back to look at me, “I don’t think you want to know what happened after

that.”

I understand and I feel myself actually blush a little, “I see.” Cocking my head, I ask my next question,

“Did you really mean it? I mean about being able to give me another heir?”

This time, she turns and looks me in the eye, “Why wouldn’t it be possible? I’m with Gavin, though, so

no, technically, it isn’t possible any longer.

“Right, well, at least Lila is now locked away for a while and won’t be able to cause any trouble.”

“Declan, you need to talk to the Elders about her. You cannot deal with that the rest of your life!” She

places her hand in the middle of my chest, but I don’t think she realizes it, and I don’t do anything to

stop her from doing it. Her touch gives me tingles and our heartbeats are still in sync.

“I will try, but I’m not holding my breath. If anything, she will always have a cell with her name on it.” I

chuckle sadly.

A vibration goes off and Quinn reaches into her back pocket for her phone. I watch her as she reads

her message and then smiles, and right

then I know that it’s from Gavin. He’s the only other person who could put a smile on her face the same

way I can.

“I’ve got to go. Gavin’s on his way over to my place. Besides, you should probably spend some time

with your son.” She reaches up and hugs me. Returning it, I take a deep breath of her scent and

squeeze her tight.

“Thank you for coming over here. Maybe next time it will be a little less chaotic.” I press my lips against

her forehead.

She pulls away, “I don’t know, is it really a good time if there isn’t any drama?” She backs her way to

the door, “Goodbye, Declan. I will see you soon.”

“Goodbye, beautiful.”
