Chapter 2
After asking for direction by an uncertain looking warrior, I walked into the pack house full of females who were staring at me while I carried their Alpha up the steps to her bedroom. Opening her bedroom door, I saw that her room was plain. Nothing bright, nothing pink. It was just a bed and a dresser. I placed her on the bed and took out a zip tie as I tied up her hands to the bed.
I shuffled through her drawer until I found a tank top long enough to tie up her ankles. Once I was done I stood up and looked at my handiwork. A smirk crawled on my face as I imagined her reaction when she wakes up. Moving closer to the head of her bed, I took a closer look at her. Her chocolate brown hair was tied up in a tight ponytail that I decided needed to come off. I moved to take off the hair tie and then allowed her head to fall back to the pillow.
She looked a lot less fierce, sleeping. I stood up and moved around her room, examining and making sure nothing was in the way for her to kill me with. As I went pass her dresser, my eyes caught sight of a small delicate picture frame. I picked it up to view. It was a picture of her with some other male. They looked happy together as he had his arms wrapped around her. He must be her mate. I wonder where he was.
I sat the picture back down and was about to go to her closet when I heard her moan. My gut clenched at the sound of it and I turned to see her slowly waking up. Her eyes fluttered opened and she tugged on her hands only to realize she was tied up. The transformation in her face was a little funny. Her eyes moved around the room until she found me.
"General." She hissed.
"Alpha Aella, you are finally awake." I said as I walked over to her. I sat on the side of her bed and moved her hair back. She flinched back to keep me from touching her. I smiled at her action before pushing her lower body over a little so that I can settle in next to her.
"W-what are you doing?" She asked and I can hear the fear in her voice.
"Relax. I am not going to rape you." I replied, putting my head back on the bed and an arm behind my head as I stared at her ceiling.
"I like my females willing." I replied casually.
She scoffed. "Like anyone would like to be in your bed."
I ignored her little response and snuggled closer to her body. She tried to move farther away from me but she could only go so far with her hands tied to the bed. I continued to follow after her until she couldn't move any more. She huffed and a growl came from her.
"Get away from me." She demanded.
"But I am just getting comfortable." I replied as I snuggled a little closer to her, the side of her breast was now pressed firmly on my right cheek. That was how close I was to her. I enjoyed provoking her. I don't know why.
"I swear to goddess above if you don't get away from me I am going to cut your balls off and feed it to my dogs once I am free." She threatened.
"See, why do you have to be so vulgar? I never spoke about your private parts." I tilted my head up to look at her but that only made my mouth closer to her nipple. A wicked grin crawled on my face as I moved to straddle her hips.
"W-what are you doing?" She asked now scared. "I thought you said you don't force females in bed."
I leaned down so that my nose was pressed against hers. "I don't...but..."
My hands shot up and started tickling her sides. She let out a squeal and began squirming under me. Laughter escaped her lips and she struggled to escape me.
"Stop it!" She pleaded between laughter. I pulled back slightly to look at her. Her face was flushed pink and her eyes were glossy with tears. "Tickle me again and I will kick you in the balls."
"See, there you go again." I muttered as my hands shot back out to tickle her. She laughed harder and began thwarting me off her lap. When I finally stopped she was breathing hard.
"I swear to god if you tickle me one more time, General-"She started but I cut her off with my hands raised up in the air to tickle her. Her mouth snapped shut and glowered at me.
"Good girl." I patted her head like a little girl and she growled. A grin crawling onto my face I flopped back down to her side, snuggling in some more into her body. "I think I am going to like it here."
"You are not going to like it here because you won't be here. As soon as I get these off my wrist, I will wring that pretty little neck of yours myself." She threatened again. I sighed and propped myself up on one elbow to look at her.
"We seriously need to work on your manners." I replied. "If we are going to have a relationship at-"
"Shut up. We will not have any kind of relationship. You are my enemy." She cut me off. Goddess, she was a total firecracker and right now she does not look happy with me at all.
I think she should remain in those zip ties until I feel safer.
"That's too bad. I thought we had something going." I replied nonchalantly before pushing myself off the bed.
"Where are you going?" She asked and I turned to see her head was lifted up so she could see me a little better.
"Well, I guess, I am going to see who I need to kill off in your pack." I said with a shrug and walked out the door. Her threats kept on coming one after another until I closed her bedroom door. One of my soldiers came up to me.
"Guard the door. Nobody goes in, not even you." I ordered. He nodded and moved to stand by the door.
I walked down the steps with a happy gait and when I caught sight of Major Nixon in the entrance hall I walked up to him, whistling. He eyed me suspiciously before speaking.
"You seem happy." He said quietly as he waved away some soldiers.
My smile slipped from my face and in its place a frown. He was right. I don't usually smile and I don't usually tease. I stopped ever since—ever since her. A heaviness weighed in my chest and gone was the happy feeling I had a moment ago.
"What have you found out?" I changed direction of our conversation as I walked out of the pack house.
"Well, it looks like this female rogue Alpha is quite a female. Her pack stands behind her a hundred percent. Most of them are not happy with what you have done but they also know that their Alpha is under our thumb." Major Nixon said.
"Alpha King did not want any casualty. His only instruction was to stop the female Alpha from reigning. It is against the law and her head could be chopped off."
"What are we going to do?" Major Nixon asked.
"Establish trust, Major Nixon. We need her pack to trust us." I replied.
"Why?" He asked. We passed a couple soldiers who were speaking to some of Alpha Aella's warriors.
"Trust will create an understanding. Right now, they will only believe in their Alpha. She has built their trust and protected them up until we came along. We need them to understand we are not here to eliminate their pack but to consolidate it not with a female Alpha but with a male Alpha who can reign successfully without going against the law." I said.
"So you are saying, she's a bad Alpha?" Major Nixon asked. We stopped at a clearing where I can look at the rest of the soldiers putting the Alpha Aella's warriors in the dungeon.
"Not at all." I replied. "I am saying she is an amazing Alpha but because law dictates that females shouldn't be rulers, we can't allow her to continue."
"That is contradicting."
"I don't have to believe in the law, Major Nixon. I just have to follow it." I replied.
A soldier of mine walked quickly up to me, handing me my phone. I glanced at it to see it was Alpha Titus. Placing it by my ear I spoke.
"Hello?"
"Noor." Alpha Titus's voice came on the other end.
"Alpha." I replied in greeting. "So, I hear congratulations are in order?"
He chuckled. "Yes, Patience and I now have a little baby female. She looks like her mother. It was exactly what I suspected."
"Your hands will be full for a several years with two females on your hands." I stated which in turn stirred up another chuckle from Alpha.
"You wouldn't believe it even if I told you. I have never seen this side of Patience. She was sweet before the pregnancy. Now, she is-"There were a few sounds and scuffling and a few 'oww' before Patience came on the line.
"Noor, when will you be coming home?" Patience asked.
I sighed and ran a hand through my hair. She always asks me the same question every time we talk on the phone. I love her like a sister and it was hard for me to tell her I won't be. They know that I was now one of the generals for the Alpha King but Patience never lost hope.
"I'm on a mission, Luna." I said.
"So after your mission?" She asked.
"I don't know." I replied.
"You have to come back sometime! Even if you don't want to stay, I just want to see you." She reasoned.
"I'll think about it?" I replied and there was a brief pause.
"Don't think about it. Just come. We miss you, Noor." She responded. I wasn't going to lie, I missed them too. I missed my old pack but I'm not the same any more. They still don't know why I won't come home.
"Ok, after this mission." I finally said. She squealed on the other end and I had to pull the phone away from my ear. After it died down I placed it back. "I'll talk to you another time, Luna."
"You have to promise me, you will come back." She ordered. I sighed and rubbed a hand over my face as I glanced around the field.
"Fine. I promise." I gave in.
"Thank you, Noor." She said before saying her goodbyes and asking me to take care of myself before hanging up.
Major Nixon and I headed toward the dungeon to wait for Alpha Aella's warriors to wake up. It was going to be a long day of questioning and a lot of patience on my part. I hated talking to wolves who were just going to be difficult and judging by their Alpha, I knew that her warriors will hold the same attitude towards me. I rubbed my forehead as stress falls upon mr as I entered the dungeon.
