My Hot Alpha

. Hand in hand we walked our way through the forest following the trail around the outskirts of our territory. It was a weird day, a little hot but chilly when the wind picked

up.

"I never realised how big the forest really is". I spoke. "How do you keep people from trespassing?".

"It's not really an issue". He shrugged. "A few wolfs here and there but nothing major has ever happened".

"Do you think people know about werewolves?".

"Maybe". He grinned. "Like your gran said old wife's tales have been circling the town for years".noveldrama

"I don't think I was meant to be a werewolf". I chewed the inside of my cheek.

"Don't say that". He pulled me to a stop.

"It's true". I shrugged.

I can't do what everyone else does. I can't shift when I want. I can barely feel her presence and when I do it's always forced, triggered by anger. It shouldn't be this hard.

"It takes time Leah but trust me babe you were meant to be a werewolf, an Alpha Female at that". His arm snaked around my waist as we continued our walk.

"If you say so". I slipped my arm around his waist as a sigh fell from my lips.

"Would you rather you weren't a werewolf?". He asked.

I shrugged. I didn't know I was one until I was eighteen and I often wondered if we hadn't moved here, would I ever have found out. Would I have ever felt her presence?

"You shifted when you were sixteen right?". I asked.

He nodded. "It wasn't pleasant, it's never pleasant for anyone. Every bone in our body _snaps and then heals. Mv. first shift was excruciating".

"So, how come I didn't shift when I was sixteen?".

"I don't know Leah maybe a set back because you didn't know any better. I've knew I would become a werewolf since the minute I could walk. In fact, it's all I've ever known. I know it's hard babe and I hate the way you're feeling about your true self. I want to help".

"We tried that before, and it didn't work. I don't want my shifts controlled by anger".

"Then you control them". He spoke. "Don't think about it too much and stop putting so much pressure on yourself".

"It's embarrassing Jake and god only knows what people think of me. How can I lead a pack when I can't shift when I want to". I huffed.

"Hey". He once again pulled us to a stop only this time he wrapped me up in his arms. "Nobody thinks anything of you other than how great you are and how much they appreciate and respect you. If you want to shift babe, then shift. You control her, you control everything".

"It shouldn't be this hard".

"It doesn't have to be". He kissed the top of my head his arms tightening around my waist. "And it doesn't have to be triggered by anger. We can try different things, and you could try talking to her".

"Are you being serious?". I didn't know whether to laugh or not. How did I talk to her? How did I talk to her without feeling stupid? Wouldn't I just be talking to myself? "It could help".

"I don't even know where to begin but I'll try and talk to her". I shrugged.

Even thinking about that made me feel stupid. But if it was going to help then I would try anything. I still didn't feel connected to her in the slightest. I would feel her presence every so often but it was barely there.

"Before you know it, you'll be shifting whenever you want". His arm wrapped around my shoulder as he pulled me close. "Do you want to go for a burger?".

I wasn't really in the mood. I felt a little off today and I had a headache that I thought the fresh air would shift but it hasn't. I shook my head. "I want to go home and nap this sore head away".

"Okay baby then we'll head home".^
