Alpha Alexa
Chapter 28

Alexa's POV

I got everyone on board with my plan. Mac called the Alpha at Red Moon pack he agreed to help us. He said we could go through his territory and if we needed any warriors, he would provide some of his. We all agreed that we didn't need any.

Half are leaving with Mac tonight to stay at his pack so that they could be in position first thing in the morning. The other half will be heading out early in the morning to get into position. I would take a car and drive it to my dad's pack and plan on being there at nine in the morning. The warriors would move in about ten minutes later. This gave me enough time to at least get into the house.

"Alexa, let me show you to Colter's room. I am guessing that is where you would prefer to stay tonight?" Mac asked. "That would be great actually."

We got up and I followed him to an elevator. I was so happy that they didn't have stairs that I would have to try to get up tonight. I had to also replace a way to get this damn cast off. When the elevator doors closed Mac turned to me and handed me a card. "What is this?" I asked

"This is how you get into his room and also you will need it to use the elevator."

"Is there anyone else on this floor? Like family I should be concerned about?" "No, it should just be you. I am the only other one that has access to this floor." "Thank you." I said.

"Look I am sorry about how I acted earlier; I just want to get him back safely." He said.

"I know me too."

He led me to a door, and I swiped my card, and you could hear the door unlocked. It was like at a hotel. He opened the door for me, and I crutched into the room. It was beautiful. It had a big open living area with a small kitchen and dining area. The walls were bright white with dark grey carpet and navy-blue curtains. There was a large couch and TV above a fireplace. It was cozy.

"His room is that door right there. There is an ensuite and a closet in there. You have my number if you need anything. I will also send up an Omega with dinner."

"Thank you, Mac. Let's get our boy back tomorrow."

He just smiled at me and walked out the door closing it behind him. I walked over to the couch and plopped down. My senses were in overdrive. Everything smelled like him, and it was nice. It calmed me down a little bit. "Jade, any idea on how we can get this cast off?"

"Let's get it wet and see if we can peel it off." "Good idea."

I walked to his bedroom and was amazed at how clean it was. I wasn't sure if he had someone come clean it or if it was because he was a neat freak. It was a simple room but beautiful. It had a king-size bed with a dark wooden bed frame and nightstands on each side. There is a large dresser and TV opposite the bed. There was plenty of space to add more furniture later on. I found the bathroom. It was large with a huge walk-in shower and a tub that would seat four easily. The sink was a double sink and marble counter tops.

I walked up to the shower and tried to figure out how to turn on the hot water. I stepped in and there weren't any faucets anywhere. I walked back out and found a tablet looking thing. I tapped it with my finger, and it brought up options to turn on the water. I found the temperature I wanted and hit start. I undressed and walked in. I had a shower head above me that had water coming down and some spraying out of the wall that was also hitting me. It felt amazing. I washed and tried to soak my cast as much as I could. The cast made a huge mess, but I was able to get it off. I was going to have to replace a garbage sack and clean it up later. I stepped out of the shower, and I defiantly had pain in my leg, but I would get by. I wrapped myself in a towel and walked out of the bathroom and into his closet. I was going to take one of his shirts to sleep in. I knew it would smell like it him and it made me feel better. I found a shirt and slipped it on and dropped my towel and headed back out to replace some underwear. "Who the hell are you?" Someone screamed at me when I walked into the bedroom.

"Me, who the hell are you?"

"I am Colters girlfriend. I come to his room to sleep when he is gone. You need to leave." She yelled.

"Ya well, I am his mate so you can leave." I spat back at her.

"You are not even a member of this pack. You have no right to be here. We are in a bit of a crisis at the moment. So, leave." She yelled.

I was done messing with her. If she really was his girlfriend, he could deal with her later and if he wanted her than he could have her I will not be the other women and he won't have a side piece either. I grabbed my phone and called Mac. "Alexa, is everything ok?"

"No, I need you to come get some dumb girl out of Colters room. She won't leave and says that she is his girlfriend." I told him while glaring at her.

"That would be Lauren and she is not his girlfriend; they have slept together before, and she wants to his girlfriend. I will be right there."

It didn't take him long to get here. He just barged right in with a pissed off look on his face.

"Lauren, how did you get a key for up here?"

"Colter had it made for me."

"No, he didn't. He would have told me and as far I know you guys aren't together and he slept with you a few times. This is his fated mate. She has the right to be here. You need to leave. If you don't, I will have you removed and sent to the dungeon." Mac said. She turned around and left stomping her feet the entire way and slammed the door when she walked out. I started laughing at her little temper tantrum.

"I am sorry about that. I am not sure how she got access to get up here. I know for a fact that they are not together so don't let her fool you." Mac said.

"Thank you for coming so quickly. She wouldn't leave and I didn't want to piss anyone off just yet."

"I am sure she will be pissed regardless. Watch yourself with her. She is physically harmless, but she is going to run her mouth I can promise you that. I am going to go to bed. You should do the same." He said as he left my room.

He was right, I needed to go to sleep. I went to his bed and crawled in. It was the softest thing I had ever laid on. I closed my eyes inhaling his scent that was infused in his bed and found sleep came pretty easy. When I opened my eyes again, I saw that it was about six thirty am and my alarm was set to go off soon. I got up and got ready for the day. My leg was feeling better but still sore.

"Jade, how is the healing going?"

"It's good, your leg isn't fully healed so please be careful with it."

"I will be as careful as I can. Now let's go replace some breakfast."

I figured out how to get downstairs and wandered around until I found the dining hall. It was huge. I found Julian sitting there eating by himself. I grabbed a plate and went over. He sent his group with Luca and decided to hang back with me. I would drop him off about a mile before the gate and he would shift and follow me in case there were any issues.

"Hey Julian, you ready for today. I want to get on the road in like forty-five minutes." I told him.

He just nodded at me and kept eating. We didn't say anything throughout breakfast. When I was done, I went back up to Colter's room to grab a few things and then I would wait for Julian downstairs. I sat downstairs for about thirty minutes when Julian showed. "You ready?" He asked me.

"Yes, what is your problem? You've been really short with me."

"Nothing, just focused on today."

We got to the car and took off. I was driving and he wasn't talking. I was fine with that my mind was racing a million miles a minute. I didn't know what my father had planned but we were going to get Colter, Liam and Sloane out of there and then deal with taking over the pack later.

It was the quietest drive of my life. Julian didn't utter a single word the whole time. We got about a mile from the pack house, and I stopped the SUV so he could get out and shift. He opened the door, but I stopped him. "Julian, wait." I said.

"What Alexa?"

"I don't know why you're so mad with me but thank you for everything. Whatever happens today just know that it means the world to me."

"I know." he said as he walked off into the forest to shift.

I pulled the SUV back onto the road and drove to the gates. When I got there, two guards were standing out front. I pulled up to it and rolled my window down.

"Hey Alexa." One of them said.

"Hi, I am here to see my dad."

"We know and you can go through." He said.

They opened the gate all the way and I drove to the pack house. I pulled up out front and my dad was standing on the porch waiting for me. I took a deep breath to steady my nerves and got out of the SUV and walked up to my dad. "Look who returns, the pack slut. We need to have few words in my office." My dad said.

"First of all, I am not a slut. I will talk to you, but I want to know that Colter and Sloane are ok first." I told him. I had Jade losing her shit in my mind. She was pissed that my dad would speak to me this way.

"We will talk first and then you can have them. Maybe." He said as he walked away.

I knew I wouldn't win that battle, but I had to try. I walked through the pack house, and everyone stared at me like I was some type of criminal. I tried to smile at a few people, but it was no use, they all just gave me dirty looks. I don't know what he has been telling them, but it wasn't good. We made it to the office, and he had guards at the door. This wasn't a good sign. I followed him inside and my brother was in there along with my mother.

"Look who finally showed her face." My mother said with a voice filled with venom.

"What is the deal, why do you guys want me here?"

My dad came behind me and threw something around my neck. It burned like silver. He tightened it so I could still breathe but couldn't move my neck around.

"What the f**k?" I yelled as I tried to pry it off but couldn't.

"You cost me a million dollars by your little stunt and now you're going to pay for it."

"I didn't do anything. You killed my mate, and you think that I would stand by and let you sell me to some Alpha."

"Alexa, really get over your mate. He died two years ago." My mother spat out.

"Yes, I will never forgive you guys for everything you have done. Now get this off me." I yelled out.

I could see that my dad was mind linking someone by the look on his face. When his eyes cleared up, he looked at me and he looked lethal.

"Alexa, did you bring warriors with you? Why are we being attacked in two different areas?"

"Did you think that I would walk in here blindly and trust you?"

He stormed off with my brother and left me sitting there with my mother. She was glaring at me as well.

"Mom, why do you guys hate me so much?" I asked her. I really wanted to understand this.

"Really, you haven't figured it out by now. You weren't wanted. I didn't know I was pregnant until it was too late to abort you. He isn't your father. I cheated on your dad and got pregnant with you. He has never let me forget it either." My mom said glaring at me. "Mom, I was a child I didn't have any control over it. Why didn't you give me up for adoption?"

"Because the pack knew I was pregnant, they were excited for you. I may have not been able to kill you then, but I can now. You're considered a traitor." She said as she jumped at me.

She knocked my chair over and started swinging her fist at me, but my mom hadn't trained a day in her life. I easily dodged her hits and swung back. It didn't take much to get her off me. I ran to the door. I knew the guard that was standing out there and hoped he would help me. I had to get this damn collar off.

"Eddy, you need to help me. Can you take this off?" I asked him as soon as I got the door to their office closed.

"Alexa, I am not supposed to help you at all." He said.

"I am sure my father has given out orders but if you take it off me, I will explain everything later." I told him.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out keys and unlocked the collar on my neck and I could instantly feel Jade back.

"Thank you." I said as I ran off.

I ran straight to the dungeon. The guards that were usually there weren't right now. I am sure they have gone to help in the fight. I threw the door open and ran down the stairs. Every cell had someone in it. I found the keys hanging on the wall and each cell I came to I looked to see who it was and when I finally found Liam, he was curled up on the floor not moving.

"Liam, get up. We have to get you out of here." I yelled at him.

He slowly rolled over and looked at me. He looked like he hadn't been fed in weeks. He was so skinny, and his eyes were sunk in.

"Alexa, is that you?"

"Yes, now get up."

He came over to the door as I unlocked it.

"We have to replace Sloane. She needs us. She is pregnant." He said as he started to cry.

I didn't have time to process what he said. I just started running to each cell looking for her. I couldn't replace her. There was only place left to look and I swear to goddess if my dad had her in the torture room, I will kill him slowly and painfully. I ran there and unlocked the door and found her pinned up by her arms. She was unconscious and had whip marks on her back and bruises covering her body.

"Liam, take her and go to my SUV parked out front. Take it and go to the Full Moon Pack. Tell them that Colter and Mac sent you and that you both need medical care." I told him as I reached into my pockets and handed him the keys.

"Lex, Colter is outside. They shot him. He is out past the tree line. Head North and you will replace him." I didn't even look at him, just took off running.

There was fighting going on outside so I snuck around the edge and headed to the tree line to see if I could replace him. I called Jade forward to help me with her wolf senses. I was running as fast as I could and kept smelling the air to pick up his scent.

I ran for about fifteen minutes when I finally smelled him. I took off even faster to him. I came to a stop when I saw him lying there completely lifeless in a pool of his own blood.
