"Oh, is the big bad alpha afraid of heights?" She chuckles out playfully but she wouldn't be laughing if she remembered me pulling her out of the icy waters below "Now!" The full weight of my alpha aura washes over her.

"You know you could just ask nicely." She grits as she fights my command.

"I won't ask again..." I growl out, placing my hand out for her to take.

She does as I ask, hesitantly at first but as soon as her hand is placed within my palm, I pull her into me. Crushing her against my own chest.

"Don't ever do that again." My body is trembling with both fear and anger. I have a feeling this new version of Kaia was going to put me in an early grave.

The sooner we leave this place the better.

Kain POV

I couldn't even be alone to pack for a journey i didn't even want to take.

If it wasn't Hector breathing down my neck, it was Alora

I gave myself a self-guided tour of the Alpha house, hoping something would stir a memory.

My wolf was still healing which meant we had no choice but to succumb to his command in leaving. Something I was already picking up on was Hector's wolf was stronger than he let on

Hector observed me carefully as I entered his office, lils eyes following my every movement with some kind of hunger hidden in the depth of them. This was the final room to explore but just like the other parts of this house...blank. Did I want to leave...no..

-

But I don't particularly want to stay in a pack I also didn't know either.

My wolf said it was best to follow our mate but I didn't even know him.

I could feel something within me calling to him though, if I wasn't in the same room as him my wolf would pine in my head.

I had to shout at her a few times that she doesn't even know him...but she just responds with, "trust the mate bond".

I did feel I bad as we left, Alora was crying, and many had come out to see me off.

Maybe I was coming across as cold hearted but how else was I meant to act.

I didn't

recognise one face, yet they all seemed to want to touch me, give me their blessings.

I could tell Hector was growing uncomfortable as pack member after pack member kissed me or stroked me, to the point that he wrapped his arms around my lower back and jerked me into the car with him. Where we remained for the past few hours.

"Is everything alright, you're fidgeting." He sighs out, running his hand down his face..

I kept thinking of Alora, maybe I shouldn't have left her.

I don't know him, I don't know anyone.

But Alora looked like me, so maybe I should have stayed with her, a mirror image seemed like the safe

bet.

My eyes continue to watch the trees as we zoom past woodland after woodland, my body angled towards the door. My arms crossed around my chest. I don't even look at him as I answer.

"I just...I have questions but I didn't want to upset you or Alora by asking them."

That was an understatement, I had an entire piece of paper with questions that I tried to tick off in bed every night.

I think he was strong enough to handle my questions but Alora looked as if she was close to breaking. down in tears every five minutes.

Again, another reason I left...she seemed like an emotional person.

Each night I write more questions on my list. If I didn't yet know the answer I would task myself with replaceing out the next day.

It helped me to sleep at night, calmed my over stimulant brain. My wolf, she was very talkative, especially at night time...she also relied on the list.

"You won't upset me, besides it's just you and me now, ask away." His tone is smooth, encouraging.

"Okay, well, I heard people talking of the alpha...my father right?"

"Yes that's right." His eyes come off the road ahead ever so quickly, flickering to me. I hadn't strapped myself in, I didn't like the idea of something tight and restrictive around my torso, so I refused. Much to Hector's dismay.

"But he's dead? Making me the alpha??

-"Yes.."

"Why not Alora.."

"Because you are the first born so naturally the pack goes to you, unless you reject it and then it will go to Alora to accept."

That makes sense I suppose.

"How did he die?" This question was near the top of my list but I hadn't felt comfortable enough to ask it yet, people seemed to replace talking about his death too raw still.

His foot slams on the breaks my body flying forward not expecting the harsh movement.

An arm flies out to my chest, holding me back as I nearly hit my head on the inside car dashboard.

So much for ask me anything.

Judging by his sudden movement, Hector wasn't ready for this question either.

I look out of the front window to see if he had damaged the car in some way. Surely this can't be from my question.

"Hector?" I look to him, trying to move but his arm held me against the car seat.

"He died due to complications from surgery." He softly responds, as he restarts the car's engine.

"I see, was I close to him?"

"You could say that."

"And my mother.. Alora said she died in childbirth?"

He doesn't answer me, only nods as his arm
