All Chapters of Claiming The Alpha: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Asher’s POVI lay back in my bed, thinking about the deal I had just made with Seraphina.There were a million and one ways it could go wrong but in the one instance it went right…Elara.It had been so long since I had seen her smile at me. Call my name in that way that when I thought about it now, I realized that she must have loved me.Since she left, we had hosted just one alliance meet and it had ended in utter disaster. Lillian was practically useless, yelling when the Alphas asked usual intrusive questions and bursting into tears when I did not take her side.Elara had been so mature. She understood people in a way that left me in awe at times.She had done it so effortlessly that I thought that it was something every Luna could do.Lillian had swiftly proven me wrong.I was about to climb out of bed when I heard noise. Mother was throwing a fit downstairs on not being served a full set of meals, appetizer and dessert included for breakfast.If she stopped to think about it, sh

Elara's POVKaden’s gaze swept through our officials at the monthly meeting. “What is it?”They all looked at each other before one person boldly decided to step forward. “Alpha, is there something going on that we have not been told about?”Kaden leaned back in his chair, his arms crossing over his chest. “What do you mean?”“Well, it just seems like so many things are happening at the same time. Beta…Alpha Cain’s house is full with so many people these past few days.”“And I swear I saw the Beta of Blackwood amongst our forces a few days ago,” another said.A pair of eyes turned to me. “And a little boy has been calling you and Luna Mama and Papa but we have not been introduced. Does the pack have an heir now?”Putting myself in their shoes, I could see how frustrating that could be but telling them anything now was a recipe for disaster.Not only could it cause widespread panic if it got out but they could cause discord in our leadership if some of them happen not to agree with wha

Elara's POVI felt the blood sliding down my cheek before I had realized that something nicked me.Kaden pulled me out of the way into his body. Behind where I had just been standing, there was a tree.It had a large smoking hole in the center of it. I had to force myself to breathe.How had I not seen the fire coming?“To think you would deliver yourself to me so easily?” Seraphina said, trying to round the stream and come closer. “How can I ever thank…Sylvanius, what is this?”The water dragon had shifted its gaze right to Seraphina and was glaring down at her.“I do believe that I said I swore an oath,” Silver said, lifting Amy into his arms. “You will not hurt the woman I swore an oath to.”Seraphina’s face twisted in rage and in a plot second, vanished, replaced with an eerie smile. “You seem to think I cannot kill you.”Silver glanced at Seraphina and then snorted. She flew into a rage and shot a ball of fire towards him. It landed on his body and vanished up in smoke.Seraphina

Elara's POV“If you feel any discomfort, say so,” Silver said. “Things like this have a reputation for going south. Don't take on more than you can handle–”“Thank you, Silver, for your warning,” I replied.For the seventh time in the last two hours.Lenora on the other hand was gingerly sucking on a bottle. When she finished, she passed out in her mother's arms, little snores leaving her lips.To be as carefree as a child again.Oliver had finished drawing the magic circle, following the pattern that his mate had had tattooed on his thigh.Rosalyn set Lenora down on the ground opposite me. “Please, keep my daughter safe.”Translation for ‘Don’t let your greed get the best of you that you start to suck out your niece's life force.’We will leave just a little bit of the flame to keep her safe, Anika said, even more excited about the ritual than me.“You better,” I muttered. “If we hurt her, Rosalyn will kill me.”You will be the strongest elemental in the world. She can try.“Are you

Kaden's POV“We can bring in more warriors if Caelthorn needs it,” Ronald said, looking up at me.As much as I was tempted, I shook my head. This was going to be a battle amongst elementals.With fire and water flying across the battlefield, the more people we had across the battlefield, the more casualties.“That is not advisable.” Before he could push, I added. “But we can keep your people on standby to help us in case the need arises.”Just as we had our own people waiting to the side.No matter what happened, we could not lose this war.“Is everything ready?” I asked Johnson as we walked back to the pack house.He nodded, wearing the loose yet comfortable clothing that I required of all my warriors. Armor was not very practical for our fighting style, like many other packs preferred to do.I looked up at the sky. It was bright with the sun shining. No one would guess that the blood moon was in three hours.Before Samuel could continue giving his report, I waved him away. “If there
