Mistake with the Alpha

Samantha's

POV

"It's fine, it's just Ethan," Jay said to me.

I breathe a sigh of relief. I've never seen Ethan shift before. This is the first time I'll see Gemma in his wolf form. The wolf is just as beautiful as he is. It is a large black wolf with blue stripes on his body. That blue is my blue. I know it's because I'm Luna now. He's wearing my colour now that I'm marked.

Ethan didn't care if they were all looking at him. He moved closer to sniffing me. He then looked at me. Since he didn't sense any danger on me again, he gave me a look and I understood. How I didn't I didn't know but I know I did. "I'm fine Gemma" I smiled at him.

"Get your big wolf out of my sight Ethan" Jay growled at him.

I gave Jaylen a scolding look. He shouldn't have done that. Ethan bowed and raced up the stairs. He was going to shift and get himself a cloth. That we all know. Just as he rushed in. He rushed back. I was surprised at his speed. By the time he came back, Drey was already looking at the wrist bead I placed on the table. I also made Jay remove his own and put it there. Drey didn't touch the wrist beads, he just sat there looking closely at it. "Who gave you this?" Drey asked.

He didn't even take his eyes off a bit. He kept glaring at the thing.

I didn't have time to reply to him because Ethan came back. And what he asked straight was what happened. Jay held me to his chest. "Looks like you're on a site that's taken this content from .. Don't settle for less-get the real deal straight from the source. Head over to B. now for exclusive content and updates." He already sent the maids out of the house, even though I didn't see reasons why he should do that. I didn't equally argue though. He sure has his reasons.

"I just felt the wolf on my arm get agitated and then very hot. It was then I knew something was wrong and I raced here" Ethan said.

he spoke his eyes were scanning the room vigorously as if he was expecting to see something different. Since I haven't told any of them what happened, I decided it's time now. I've regained my strength back even though my body was still shaking a bit. That's just the aftermath of fear.

"All of a sudden I was getting weak. I thought it was what the physician and my dad told me about pregnancy. So I decided to lie down. Mom already went inside to get me freshly made juice. Thinking that if I take a nap the tiredness will disappear as usual, so I decided to sleep. But then just as I closed my eyes to sleep, this woman appeared right in front of me. At first I thought I was dreaming because it's as if a cloud was covering the woman. I couldn't see her clearly but I'm so sure that the figure standing in front of me is a female".

I paused. Then I continued.

"She was talking but I couldn't hear what she was saying. All I could see was her moving mouth. As she spoke I couldn't move my body nor could I open my mouth to say a word. When I knew I wasn't dreaming was when I felt something tickling on my wrist. I tried looking down but then I couldn't move anything aside my eyes. I felt the blinking of the bead. It was as if it was drawing out my strength at full force. Later, it started to choke me. From my wrist, then the choking moved to my neck. It didn't stop until I heard mom call my name. At the sound of her voice, everything happening to me vanished, including the woman's figure. Then I knew I had to call Jay to see if he's fine. Since he also is wearing that wrist bead" I narrated.

Now I'm back to normal. I couldn't feel any weakness. It was as if I drew my strength from Jay.

"Where did you get the bead?"

"Who gave you the bead?"

Jaylen's mother and Drey asked at the same time respectively.

"We received it from a little pup at our wedding party" I replied.

"

Do you know the girl?" Jay's mother asked.

I shook my head." She left before we could ask her name," I replied.

I remembered the event vividly. So this wasn't a heartfelt gift but one to kill us.

"I'll find her for you Luna" Ethan said firmly.

I nodded and smiled at him stiffly. This just gave me a good lesson not to collect things from strangers no matter who they are. Everyone seated, none scolded me for taking things from strangers. They were only thinking about the solution. "I recognize this magic," Drey said.

His face wore a scowl.

"You do?" Jay asked, concentrating.

"Yes, my father once captured a witch, who was trying to impersonate my mother so as to kill my father. Then I was just growing my witch ability. My father didn't want me to then but because I was the one who told him that's not my mother, he allowed me to train more but secretly. This is definitely Ashanti's handiwork. I can't find it difficult to know it's her" he said with a sneer.

I wondered who this so-called Ashanti is. And what on earth have I done to her to make her kill me?

"I have a question," Jay's mother said.

We all looked at her.

"Didn't Jaylen too wear the wrist bead? How come he's not affected?" She asked.

Yes, that's really true. I had thought it would affect him. That's why I went to call him immediately but then he came home like nothing happened.

"That's what I don't know either," Jay said.

The look he wore showed that he truly doesn't know why he wasn't affected. Then Drey decided to throw down a bombshell.

"Magic doesn't work on him".
