Alpha's Second Chance

LOGAN

I am standing outside the castle watching as Alpha and Lunas come when Kyle comes walking across the road.

"Your Highness." He says respectfully when he gets here.

"Kyle," I answer, and he stands next to me.

"You do not need to stand here," Kyle says.

"I should be greeting the quests," I tell him.

"You will when everyone is here. For now, you do not need to stand here. Or you can stand here all day, my king. " Kyle says and I know he is right.

"Okay, should we get Omegas assigned to make sure they are greeted?" I ask

"We already have. They are all being taken good care of, my king. So go home, rest, and prepare for the dinner tonight." He says, and I know he is right, so I nod my head and walk along with him towards our houses.

When we get there he bow, and the warriors assigned here to keep people out of our private homes, do the same thing. And I greet them before I walk over to my own house and get inside.

Walking in I can hear the kids and look into the TV ROOM and see Rose and Noah there, with Anna and the twins. I walk in and give Rose and Noah a kiss, wave to Anna, and after a few words, I leave them to continue what they are doing. I walk upstairs, where Anna tells me Liv is training in our gym room, and I can hear her training.

I walk in and lean against the doorframe, and stand there, watching her, as every muscle in her body is working, as she kicks and hits the boxing ball. I love watching her train, and I love that I can see how strong and amazing she is.

She does a round-back circle kick, and when she turns, she sees me. After her kick, she stops, looks at me with a smile, and walks over to me.

"Hey." She says, and I smile.

"Hey, baby, it looked good. You are in good shape." I say and pull her into my arms.

"Thank you. I want to be at my best." She says.

"And I think you are. You looked great. And your dad will be proud of you, plus we already know that you will win." I tell her, and she nods and smiles at me.

"I need a shower." She says, and I smirk at her before lifting her up and walking towards our bathroom.

"I can help you with that," I tell her as I place her back on the floor.

"I'm sure you can. But we are not alone. Anna could walk in at any moment." She says. And I gently press her up against the wall.

"We better hurry then," I whisper as I pull off her top and push down her small shorts, which I always love to see her in, before taking off my own clothes.

OLIVIA

"We are late," I say as I rush into my closet. I am getting dressed in my simple but elegant blood-red strapless gown. And I hear him chuckle from inside his own closet.

"We are the king and queen. We are never late, my love." He says. And chuckles again before he continues.

"And besides, you didn't complain when we were in the shower." I hear him say, and I laugh a little, but he is right. I definitely didn't complain.

I am looking for a set of earrings when I feel his arms around me and his lips on my neck, and I can't help

but moan a little. I turn around and look at him, standing in his suit pants and a white buttoned-up shirt with the two top buttons open.

"We have to go," I tell him as I turn to take my shoes on, then I stand up and look at him. "You look beautiful. Let us go." He says and reaches out his hand for me to hold.

We walk out of the house, and four warriors are ready to follow us to the castle where the big welcome dinner will happen. It is a short walk, so we are fast to get there and stop outside the big double doors into the ballroom. And when the doors open, two warriors start walking in, then Logan and I, and last the other two warriors behind us.

We walk in under a sea of applause and cheers from everyone and are led up to the podium where our tables are. Dad, Matt, and Anna are there on my side of the table, and on the other side of Logan, Kyle, Kate and Luea are sitting. Also, the leading elders, including my grandparents, are sitting here, and they all stand up when we join them, and so does the rest of the room, waiting for us to sit down. Logan helped me sit down before seating himself next to me, and then the others at our table sat down, and then the rest of the room sat down, too.

Logan stands up and bends down to give me a kiss on my temple before going to stand so that everyone can see him.

"Welcome, everyone. Even though I have been seeing how many are getting back to me, saying yes to this invitation. It is amazing to see you all here. The next three days will be three days with two competitions and celebrations.

As any other time you visit this pack, our town, and live in the castle, I expect that you all respect and follow our rules. And that also means that any other time you are here, I will not tolerate any mistreatment of anyone here.

Any breaking of our rules will get you banned from this pack and from these lands, and will be thrown out." Logan says and pauses before continuing.

"But enough about that, we are here

to have a good time and to have fun, so let's start tonight with the good food and the good company. Let the festival begin." Logan says and sits down next to me, and everyone begins to eat and talk. I lean over

and kiss his cheek.

"Good speech," I tell him and kiss his cheek.

"Thank you, my love." He says and smiles, and an evening with conversations, dancing, and laughter lasts long out into the night.

"Dance with me." I hear Logan say as he stands up and holds out a hand for me.

I take it, and he leads me out onto the dancefloor, where everyone makes room for us, and he takes me Into his arms, and dances with me slowly through a few songs, while he holds me close. I see him dig into a mindlink, but only for a few seconds, and he smiles at me.

"Do you remember this song?" He whispers into my ear as I hear the song "Perfect by Ed Sheeran" begin to play, and I smile.

"It is the song you requested on my birthday. Before midnight, before I found out we were mates." I whisper back, and he smiles.

"Yes. And to me, you are still perfect." He says and kisses me, and we dance to the song.
