My Alpha Within Book 1
Ch 17 Rules

Maxine POV

Everything was hazy, I was in the woods. I did not know how I got here, or why I was here in the first place. I finally got accustomed to my surroundings, oddly enough I was in my wolf form.

I could feel the dirt and rocks underneath my paws, as I looked down into the pond and seen my midnight black wolf. I had one white spotted paw though, my right one, it was just one thing, I wasn't as black as max. I was blacker, it was kinda funny you would think he was darker but it seems his coat isn't as dark as mine.

I wonder how old is he ?

Not that it matters anyway, I would be leaving, no point in me staying honestly. I could finally get rid of that weird guy that I imprinted on, he was kinda possessive.

I heard a sound coming from a bush nearby, with a pair of golden eyes looking back at me. I blinked. He blinked back.

I growled out of confusion, who was this mysterious wolf, and why the fuck was he watching me. He finally emerged from the bushes and I got to see him clearly.

He was a tan wolf with blond highlights, like the sun tattooed itself onto the tips of his fur. He was so beautiful, my wolf inside wanted to take over, and I was liable to let her. So I did.

When my wolf took the front seat it felt weird, like watching you life thru somebody else eyes. She was so happy to be out I could feel it, she ran towards him and charged him, like they were old friends. He nipped at her tail and I could feel our heart throb. I was lost I assumed this was a regular wolf but this didn't feel like a regular interaction. My wolf loved this, my wolf loved him.

As we were playing, I could feel another wolf was near, as my ears pricked up the mysterious wolfs did as well. Next thing I knew we were surrounded, it was 6 wolfs in total and they were all scarred up. They looked like rogues, if I could make a good guess.

It was a large one, larger than the rest. It seemed like this was the Alpha of this group, pack whatever you wanted to call this group of 6. I instantly wanted to protect the wolf beside me, I don't know why but I did. Now more than ever.

The largest wolf the so called Alpha, it was a auburn red wolf with a scar across its chest and left eye. He looked like he's been in plenty of fights, it doesn't matter to me though I wouldn't be going down without a fight.

Grandpa jet wouldn't want me giving up, "fight till you can't fight anymore, then keep fighting" was something he said very often to me and it kept me on my toes. I told myself I wouldn't go down. Without a fight. So I retook control.

Two wolf's came at me fast without hesitation, I tried dodging but I failed and got charged by one of them as the other bit into my paw. Making me lose my balance, I felt the bones breaking, I yelped for help from the mysterious wolf. It was no use I turned my head and he was already dead.

Neck gushing blood from a bite wound, it was a hole where his throat should have been. I look to the right the Alpha was chewing, then swallowing that mysterious wolfs flesh. My mates flesh.

My wolf went crazy I no longer had control, my paw healed as I jumped at him. He jumped back and looked for reinforcements, I was surrounded again. I didn't let them box me in I attacked, protecting myself or rather she was. All I could do was watch as she ripped the most of that pack to shreds.

She went for the neck almost always, and she loved letting them think she was the prey, when she was always the hunter. She moved with grace as much grace a feral wolf could have, like a murderous dance.

It was beautiful, like in a kill bill 1 super bloody typa way. I couldn't stop watching, this was the true love with imprinting, she was heart broken so she was doing what she needed to do it greave. Kill, Kill, Kill,

As she snapped the last neck of the somewhat weak group of wolfs the Alpha would make a stand. Honestly she was weak now scared and bloody she looked like she was apart of this group more than ever.

The last wolf attacked, overwhelming her almost instantly. I tried to take control but it was useless all I could do was watch. Watch as he rips into our flesh, digging into my chest. I look into the eyes of my killer and I think of my mate, what if he was here, could he have helped me ? Or died like the mysterious wolf. Wait is Justin that wolf?

How could I be so dumb, of course he is. As death was knocking at my door me and my wolf screamed out, not out of physical pain but if the heartbreak of losing out mate, and now about to lose our life.

As the Alpha wolf grabs the nape of my neck, I think of how things would have been if I accepted him, and actually tried to love Justin. The wolf snaps my neck and I take my last breath looking at body of my love...

I woke up with a sweat, with a tear soaked face somewhat hyperventilating. A hand calmed me down instantly, it was Justin.

"Did you have a bad dream my love?" He asked truly concerned, even though I just rejected him, At least to the pack.

"Ye-Yes, we were playing with out wolfs and got attacked and I could save you." I explained the best I could through tears.

"It's okay it was a dream I'm here in the flesh unharmed," he said while wiping my face.

I was suddenly embarrassed, embarrassed that a dream could show my thoughts and feelings even though I couldn't. It was just unfair, to have my emotions take front seat. I needed to be smart about this but I cannot keep up this facade. This needed to be delt with, Today.

"I will accept our imprint formally" I said after a moment, he smiled I cleared my throat and continued.

"Only if you can go by a few rules, if not I'll formally reject you right now." I said with confidence, I cannot let him break down my wall before I can tell him the rules.

"Okay, shoot" he said now smiling, I don't know what for, this wasn't gonna be eazy.

"Rule one, I only want 4 pups sorry not sorry I want a big pack of my own." He kinda blushed in a boyish way, and I continued.

"Rule two, you are mine and I am yours. We must talk to each other about everything, don't just make choices without talking to me. I hate being ignored." I said with a smile, let's see what he says about this.

"That's fine as well, I love having my woman apart of my choices. Makes them more permanent." He said with a sexy smile, making my heart flutter a bit. It was crazy how he makes my body feel.

"And last but not least, Rule number three. I'm not staying here in the Midnight Moon Pack, were leaving together this is unnegotiable." ..................
