Lost Alpha: Switched At Birth Polite Dinner Conversation - 2
The old man huffed, slapping the piece of meat dangling on the tines of his fork onto his own plate. "Is it a crime for an elder to want to tend to a child? You are too thin. Strong though you may be. The more meat you get, the better your constitution. I won't apologize for helpin'."Does he remind you of anyone? Arya poked, teasing in her tone.If I closed my eyes, I'd swear that Gabe was sitting beside me right now. I never noticed how much their personalities favor, I snickered internally. It's almost endearing. I wonder if I'd have been able to experience this version of him before... if I'd never been weakened.The thought soured my stomach.Was this what Evangeline had experienced? A life of people doting and fussing and treating her well? How could she have lived this kind of life and still made it her mission to hurt and demean someone with far less than her? The urge to refuse her care, to let her suffer and die, rose in me. A cruel, twisted thing born from hurt and lack. Wh
Lost Alpha: Switched At Birth Polite Dinner Conversation -1
The meeting ended in a large feast. Not the usual fare of a common dinner, but a boisterous celebratory occasion that rivaled that of one of Lady Evangeline's birthday parties. No expense spared, an agitation to my already restless and disgruntled spirit. Snow Pointe was so eager to roll out the red carpet and welcome me when they needed me, but I was unworthy of basic care when I lived here.Hypocrites.I was sat at the head of the table between Gamma Olivier and Luna Alena, across from Alpha Damon's piercing, calculating gaze. My rejection of his welcome and offer to return to Snow Pointe wasn't going to be the end of it. He was not the kind of man who accepted "No" lying down. That sharp mind of his was working, plotting, weaving better, more tempting offers together to try and entice me to stay. All because he finally saw my worth as a wolf and warrior."And you're certain that you wish to return to the mountains?" Luna Alena asked, pulling my attention away from her glowering hus

"Please, Alpha Snow, be at ease. I had no part in the rogue attacks on Snow Pointe five years ago, or in any that may have occurred during my absence. I can assure you of that much," I explained, taking a single step back from the dais, arms crossed over my chest—the posture of defense. I didn't aim to come off too aggressive and give him a reason to imprison me. My goal remained the same: Return home to Wayfinder. To my people. "I came here in goodwill to provide aid to your daughter. I came alone. Unarmed. No tricks up my sleeve."Alpha Snow huffed, his eyes narrowing to dark slits. "You were the one who pointed us in the direction of the false doctor with your testimony. I am no fool. You claimed to be in the isolation ward when the attacks started, and we found the imposter's journals that confirmed it. That was the damning piece of evidence in their trial."Like a shadow, he strolled down the steps and stopped before me. The Alpha of Snow Pointe was a mountain of a man that could

Perhaps warming up to Phillipe was a mistake. The entire time we walked from the guest quarters to the Great Hall, he talked. Nonstop. On and on and on, until I started getting a headache from his excited rambling.How had I forgotten that part about being his friend? You had a small pool to choose from back in the day. I think you were just happy to have anyone acknowledge your existence in a way that didn't cause lasting physical damage, Arya snickered. I hated that she wasn't wrong. The talking had been endearing when I was a lonely child. Now, I couldn't help wondering what his mate thought about it."You are so different than before, Ari," he stated, pausing briefly before the final stretch into the Great Hall. His expression turned pensive as he glanced at me over his shoulder. He hadn't changed much since he was 17. Still tall. Still lean and a bit gangly. He never quite filled out like the rest of the warriors he trained with."You're strong and healthy. And you've got this a

Phillipe's shoulders slumped at my cold tone, and a sliver of remorse flickered in my mind before I snuffed it out completely. I refused to feel bad about voicing the betrayal I'd harbored since he abandoned me. Still, a small part of me missed my friend and hated to see him sad. I softened, just barely."Thank you, Phillipe. Your apology... helps," I conceded, turning my back to him."No... thank you, Aurelia," he countered, taking a hesitant step forward. "Without you, Snow Pointe is doomed. You know... Evangeline fell sick not long after you left. When we discovered the imposter and the real doctor Andromeda, Evangeline came down with this illness not long after."He sighed, voice heavy from the burden of fear. "Delta Hester thought you might have given it to her, but Andromeda assured everyone that the illness you had wasn't contagious. But it did require constant care. Since she fell ill, Evangeline's been under Andromeda's constant watch. No one has been allowed to be less than

The warrior formation broke off from behind us as we continued our entry into the packhouse."You'll be shown to your guest chambers first. The Alpha and Luna are out on business at the moment, but will receive you shortly," Olivier explained in his usual clipped tone. "You are to want for nothing. The servants know to treat you with the respect due to any honored guest."Our procession stopped just before a set of large double doors; the familiar scent of jasmine hung in the air around it. In another life, I passed by these doors with trays of food and imagined what it would be like to stay as a guest of the Alpha and Luna. Pampered. Every whim catered to. Those fantasies curdled under the reality of what I faced.Olivier opened the door, and a decadent chamber sprawled out before me. More space than a single person would ever need. It surpassed even Evangeline's luxurious bedroom. I should have been impressed and flattered by the finery and promise of extreme comfort. But a bitter st
Lost Alpha: Switched At Birth Doctor's Orders - 2
I'd done so well for so long to hold on to the hope that one day, everything would be different. I fought and struggled, kept my head down, and did the best I could each day. I showed up when no one wanted me. I carried loads that my weak body was not meant to hold. I endured abuse and neglect an

Serena yanked me upright, sending the basket of compost clattering to the dirt. Her fingers dug into the sides of my neck hard enough to bruise, as she guided my form effortlessly. A flick of her wrist, a twist of her elbow, and my body shifted to her command with no resistance. She marched me ar
Lost Alpha: Switched At Birth Side Effects
Dragging myself out of bed the next day was nearly impossible.The medicine Doctor Andromeda gave me lingered long after the moon set and the sun crested over the mountain range surrounding Snow Pointe. I barely slept. Unless fading in and out of consciousness counted. To me, it didn't.
Lost Alpha: Switched At Birth Seventeenth Moonday - 1
It was a small blessing that my seventeenth moon day fell on one of my days off. I don't think I could have survived Delta Hester's displeasure at me taking the entire day off otherwise. Small mercies found me in those days, and I never forgot to thank the Moon Goddess for the reprieve.Bu
