Alpha Female's Mate

Chapter 45

Storm's pov

Two days later, Alpha douche came back with a large number of his werewolves who were willing to fight. Artemis gave them a huge house that they could live in, a little bit farther away from the pack.

Every single day was filled with training with little or no time for rest. Riley has been training as well but he's not going to be with us during the war. His presence in the pack has been refreshing and Artemis smiles even more.

Sometimes when I watch her playing with him, I just can't help of thinking of the future when she becomes a mother. I know she would be the most beautiful mother ever. 

"They are really scary." Lyle says from my side, his face drenched in sweat and I shrug. He and Jay have also been trying to train with them. I think they are planning on joining but I'm not sure. These last few days have been extremely quiet. No sudden attacks and the disappearance has also stopped.

When Artemis' brother said he was going to investigate, he hasn't been back yet and Esme has also left with Alec back to their coven to prepare.

"It's really too quiet." I voice out and Lyle raises his brow to stare at me.

"Isn't that a good thing?"

I purse my lips, shaking my head. "I don't know."

Just then Jay walks towards us, his whole body also drenched in sweat and he heaves, snatching the water from Lyle's hand and taking a huge gulp.

"They are fucking intense!" He wheezes out and looks over to stare at them and shakes his head. "I wonder how they do this." He mumbles.

"You're human, they are werewolves, it pretty much explains the who thing." Lyle mumbles from my side. I notice that Jay's gaze is on Selena, a weird look on his face as he stares at her.

"Hey Storm how did you know Artemis was your mate?" He casually asks and I raise my brow at him. Oh I know what this is about.

I shrug, looking in the direction of Selena. It's been on my mind for sometime now and I know it's not my business but why is she hiding it and behaving that way towards him. Jay snaps his fingers in front of me and I look at him to see a scowl on his face.

I shrug. "She told me but before that I felt this unexplainable connection between us. It just kept pulling me in and no matter how much I tried to resist it just wasn't enough."

He nods his head, looking down deep in thought.

"Why do you ask?" I question and he looks at me with a frown, lips pursed.

"I think Selena is my mate but I'm not sure." He finally says and I smile inwardly. She is your mate Jay but as to why she has ignored this for a long time, I really don't know.

He lets out a frustrated groan and runs his fingers through his hair, messing it up even more. "What do I do?"

Lyle just looks shocked but then he shakes his head. "Just confront her and find out if it's true or not."

He seems to consider it and nods his head at the same time. Ollie walks over to us with an excited look on his face. "Who wants to get drunk before we all die?"

"I do." Lyle pipes up, ruffling his hair. "There's too much tension here." 

Jay agrees as well and I also nod my head. There's too much stuff going on and taking a break is needed at this point. He grins excitedly, bouncing on his heels at the thought of it.

"I'll get the girls and later we'll go." 

When I get back to the house, I look for Artemis and find her sound asleep in my room. Her hair spreads on the pillow she's lying on as she cuddles the other pillow. Her lips naturally formed into a pout with soft snores escaping her lips.
