Alpha's Second Chance

OLIVIA

“Muffin?” dad ask when I enter the kitchen after waking up this morning.

"Yes, dad?”

“Did you leave the house last night?” He asks me.

“Yea, I felt so restless, so I went for a run.”

"Okay. It is all good. Just be careful.” Dad tells me.

I smile but say nothing about that. I met Alpha Logan out there. For some reason, I don't want to have to explain it. But for some reason, I felt calmer and, I don’t know, safe. It's silly, I know, because I don't know Alpha Logan or this pack. But even though my connection to Skye is still weak, I can most of the time feel her emotion so strongly that I feel as if I lose control.

“Can I come to watch you fight?” I ask.

"Sure, I don't think there are any problems with that,” Dad says and stands up.

We leave the house and walk to the field. On our way there, dad seems to realize something.

"Why are you not training today?” he asks.

"Alpha Logan moved me up a step after an incident with someone here yesterday. With one of the fighters, and he thinks I am too good to be at this level.” I tell dad. But I don't say to him that it was first last night by the lake that we had talked about it.

When we get to the field, everyone my age is already training. A few stopped when they saw us or me coming, but I chose to ignore them. And we continue walking toward where Alpha Logan is standing, getting ready to fight.

A girl my age is there talking to him, trying to be flirty with him, but he does not seem to pay any attention at all. As if he senses us coming, he looks in our direction and catches my eyes for a few seconds, then he smiles.

“Klaus, Olivia. Good to see you.” He says, smiling. Both dad and I greet him respectfully. Then he looks at me.

“I thought we agreed we would put you up in a higher class?” he asks.

“It is my fault, Alpha. I allowed her to come along to watch the fight today. Hope you don't mind, or I am sure she won't mind leaving.” Dad says quickly

“It is no problem at all.” Alpha Logan says and smiles big at me. This seems to annoy the girl that is standing next to him. Maybe she is his girlfriend or something. I know he doesn’t have a mate from the talk around the pack.

The girl tries again to get his attention by touching him, and for some reason, Skye begins to stir and get mad. I fight her badly for control right now, and dad senses this as he looks at me.

“Liv?”

“Sorry, dad, I have it under control. I don't know what happened,” I say.

“Are you sure?”

"Yes, I am good.” I almost whisper. And noticed Alpha Logan and the girl looking at me as well. Dad nods.

“Everything Okay?” Alpha Logan asks.

"Yes, it is just Skye, Olivia's wolf. She is a strong and sort of unruly soul. Even though they are not fully connected, she often tries to take control. Liv has to be aware of her every second, or she will blindly be affected and act out from what Skye feels. We hope it will change when they can shift and be able to find their mate..” Dad says, looking over to Alpha Logan.

“Ah, well, if you ever need help, Liv, don't be scared to ask.” Alpha Logan says.

“Her wolf is uncontrollable? No wonder she was so rough at Ryan yesterday.” The girl says, sending me a death glare. Dad looks at me again with a raised eyebrow.

“Ryan asked for it when he attacked and acted improperly. And don't you have training, Sandra?” Alpha Logan jumps in and saves me.

“I have a hurt ankle but thought I'd come to keep you company.” I can't help but snort, and dad looks amused, but Alpha Logan looks irritated. She looks at me.

"What? We can't all be crazy like you. Some She-wolves are more feminine than others.” She says with a glare.

“Any wolf should be able to handle a hurting ankle unless it is broken just shortly before or about to fall off,” I say, ice cold. And dad chuckles. And Alpha Logan looks as if he is trying not to laugh. "And how do you know it is not broken?” Sandra shoots at me.

"One. Your stand here, wasting time, two. A broken ankle will be bruised, wolf or not.” I say and roll my eyes.

“Whatever.” She sneers at me. I shrug my shoulders and go to sit down on the benches further away. But Alpha Logan stops me.

“Olivia, could you sit here and keep an eye on my phone? Rosalie isn't feeling too well today. And the packmember looking after her is human and can't mindlink.” He asks me.

“Sure, I can do that. Or I can go there to help look after her if you like.” I Offer, and Sandra laughs. "Why would Logan allow you to go on his floor? He doesn’t even know you.” She sneers.

“You would be okay with not seeing your dad fight?” Alpha Logan asks. Ignoring Sandra.

“I have seen dad fight so many times, and I will another time as well. So sure, I don't mind.” I say, not paying attention to Sandra's glare.

“That would be awesome. I will mindlink the omegas working in the house today and text Anna to let her know you are coming and have permission to step on my floor.” Alpha Logan says, and we all ignore Sandra's gasp. I nod my head.

“I will go now,” I say.

“Thank you, Liv. Rose will love it, and she hasn't stopped talking about the singing yesterday.” Alpha Logan says and smiles. I laugh.

“It's no problem,” I say, and then I turn to go to the packhouse.
