He is in a poor mood; I believe I have irritated him. Alpha is staring at me menacingly, and he presents an imposing figure at over 6 feet tall, exceptionally broad, and muscular. He possesses short salt-and-pepper hair. Despite being in his 40s, he remains quite handsome. Alpha’s deep brown eyes are fixed on me; if looks could kill, I would be deceased.
“We have deliberated on this matter, Celine!” “She may be a human,” Alpha growls.
“Alpha, kindly.” I cannot relinquish her. Provide me with a year; if she proves to be human by then, I will accept her and depart from the pack. I implore, “I shall rear her among the humans.”
Alpha appears astonished. He did not anticipate my statement.
Your friends and family are present, and you have expressed an interest in pursuing a medical career. You exhibit considerable potential. Would you relinquish everything for an infant you encountered merely a few hours prior?He enquires.
“Alpha, I sense a profound connection to her, and I cannot abandon her.” I recognise it may appear foolish. “I understand, but she requires my support, and I require hers,” I articulate, allowing a solitary tear to escape, which I promptly erase.
“What are the implications if I decline?”Alpha enquires.
“I will pack my belongings today and depart with her,” I concede. He is gesturing disapproval towards me by shaking his head. He halts to contemplate for a moment.
“What is the status of your partner, Celine?” Will your destined partner be amenable to you having a child? Will he decline you due to her?I contemplate briefly prior to responding.
I am convinced that this child is my fate. The moon goddess shall bestow upon me a discerning partner.
“What if she does not?” Is he not? And you forfeit him?”
“Perhaps one day I shall fall in love with someone who comprehends.” Not all individuals ultimately find their soulmate. I cherish this child as a mother cherishes her offspring. If I lose him, I lose him. It does not alter my decision!“I assert resolutely.”
Alpha reiterates his disapproval by shaking his head.
I believe you are erring, yet it appears your decision is final. If she proves to be human, you must depart with her, Celine. Your parents have significantly contributed to this pack, and I would regret having to expel you; however, if she is revealed to be human….
I interrupted him, “Thank you for granting me a year, Alpha.” I fully comprehend. I cherish this pack and would never jeopardise it by allowing a human presence. If she is indeed human, I will depart contentedly and with gratitude for the year. Thank you, Alpha. Thank you!Alpha offers a constrained smile and a slight nod.
Upon my departure, I establish a mind link with Norah.
-Norah, are you available? I must travel to the town to conduct some shopping. Would you like to accompany me?-
Indeed, I do. Do you wish to go out? I am exceedingly pleased. I require a new dress. Gavin is taking me on a date this weekend, and I wish to acquire something new, possibly something attractive to wear underneath. I will arrive at your residence in 20 minutes; is that acceptable?-
That sounds excellent; I look forward to seeing you shortly.-
Upon Norah’s arrival at my residence, she is astonished to discover that I still possess the infant. I elucidate everything to her, and she is initially displeased with me. She disapproves of the prospect of my potential departure from the pack in a year, with no intention of returning; however, I reassure her that I will remain nearby.
Norah requires 5 minutes to accept her as mine, after which she becomes enthusiastic and assists me in selecting baby names while we proceed to town to purchase necessary items for her. I have chosen Alyssa. My Alyssa.
In an hour and a half, we acquired all the necessary items for her. It is advantageous that financial constraints are absent, as my parents possessed considerable savings and assets at the time of their passing, thereby ensuring that my brother and I are adequately provided for.
I am currently rocking Alyssa in the living room, and Norah has just departed. We dedicated the morning to shopping, assembling all the baby items, and organising. I am awaiting my brother’s return from his Gamma training. I am reluctant to convey the news to him, but it is highly probable that Alpha or another individual has already done so.
