The Rejected Alpha Wolf

The Next Day:

Ace POV

I was on the training field with my Mom and Dad, our head trainers, and Delta. Our allied pack, Alphas, and were-bear leader were also present. Espen showed the Alphas how to fight with weapons and battle moves while I trained with my Mom and Dad. Mom and I were in wolf form while Dad was on the sidelines watching us go back and forth using our powers. Mom was quick on her feet as she threw a fireball at us and set Apollo's ass on fire as he yelped and rubbed his ass on the pavement.

"Focus, Ace," Mom said in our link. I've learned that white wolves can communicate with each other, and we don't have to be in the same pack to do so.

Apollo got our head back in the game and focused on Mom as she threw a massive wave of fireballs our way. Apollo concentrated on water, and a vast wall of water appeared and blocked Mom's attack.

"Good job, Apollo."

"Way to use your water attack," Apollo felt a presence behind us. Dad jumped into the match and tried to slash his claws at us as our forcefield protected Apollo.

"Nicely done," Mom said. We went a few more rounds trying different tactics, and my Dad came at us from various sides.

This way, we could learn to use all our powers simultaneously with multiple enemies trying to come at us. After the power training, Mom went to take a break. At the same time, the guys and I wanted to try weapon training since some vampires would be using spears and arrows to attack us. We went to where Espen was teaching the other Alphas and watched as he and Björn trained with their weapons.

Espen was a master with his axe, while Björn fended off his attacks with his sword. I learned that werebears have tougher outer skin. This is why Simon had Helena engineer the copper-tipped spears. Copper is a weakness of werebears and can break the skin upon contact when Espen and Björn finished their session. Espen looked at me and called me forward.

"Alright, Ace, there are four ways you can stop arrows and spears from piercing your skin. It would be best if you concentrated on building walls with your powers," Espen said as I got into my stance.

Espen and Björn picked up some bows and arrows. I watched as they stood a few feet back and prepared their arrows.

"Let's see how quick you are," Espen said as he went first.

I used my elemental powers to stop each of his arrows. Björn joined in the fun, and this is where my forcefield came into play. Espen asked the other Alphas to stand in a circle to test my reflexes. Espen and Björn started firing arrows in different directions. I used my super speed and elemental powers to stop the arrows and learned how to build walls with the elements.

"Nice job," Espen said.

"Now, let's see how the other Alphas do," Espen said. I took a break and sat on the bench to watch.

After about thirty minutes of training with the other Alphas, Espen and Björn congratulated them on their training success. I quickly jumped off the bench and told the bears I wanted to go a few more rounds. Apollo agreed as the bears smiled.

"Okay, but we aren't going to train with these," Espen said. He and Björn put the bow and arrows and other weapons in the weapon cases and removed their shirts. The she-wolves made catcalls and whistles.

"Let's see how you fair against me and my second," Espen said with a smirk.

I got into my stance as a crowd formed, and Espen smirked. Björn charged at me with lightning speed as I quickly dodged his attacks. Espen watched with his arms folded. Both bears were over twelve feet tall, so it was easy to dodge Björn. I slid under him and kicked his legs out as he went down and grunted.

"Nice shot," Björn said. He stood up and dusted himself off. He smirked and charged again.

Björn came at me as I prepared for his attack, but I didn't anticipate Espen coming at me from behind. I got knocked down from the sides like a potato sack.

"Damn," I grunted. Their bodies felt like brick walls as I tried to stand.

"Ace? You good?" Apollo asked.

"Yeah, I'm okay," I said, holding my side and seeing the bruises forming.

"Use your powers this time. Remember what Mom said. Don't underestimate your opponent," Apollo said.

I called forth my powers and felt the energy crack at my fingertips. Espen and Björn charged simultaneously as my waterpower formed a block of ice and managed to stop their attacks. We went back and forth as Espen, and Björn found some ways around my powers and damn near kicked my ass.

"I think that's enough for today," Espen said.

"No! I can go on. Keep going," I panted as they both looked at me.

"Alpha Ace, you are exhausted and need to rest."

"Over-exerting yourself is not the way to go about it," Espen said as they cleaned up the training field. I sighed and helped them clean up the area.

"Ace, where are you?" Rachel's asked in the link.

"Helping the guys clean up. Is everything okay?" I replied and waited for a response.

"Alpha Major and Alpha Patrick have been calling your phone for the past hour."

"I answered, and they said to call them back immediately," Rachel said. Major and Patrick were the only two Alphas absent from training today.

"I'm on my way back to the castle."

"We are done for the day," I said, closing the link.

"I have Alpha stuff to tend to."

"Thanks for the training, guys. Same time tomorrow?" I asked the guys as they nodded, and we said our goodbyes.

I returned to the castle and headed straight to our floor to shower and change clothes. After five p.m., I finished showering and changed into jeans and a black polo shirt. I ran my fingers through my curls, left the suite, and headed toward the elevator.

Once the doors opened, I stepped inside the elevator and pushed the button for the fourth floor. I linked the warrior guarding the witch Helena and asked him how the removal spell was coming along.

He replied that the witch was almost finished and continuously tried to flirt with any un-mated male warriors who entered her space. I mentally rolled my eyes and let Paulão know I would address the situation and keep an eye on her. I finally reached my office and opened the door to Rachel, trying to soothe a wailing Xander while Xayden was in the bassinet with his eyes curiously looking around his surroundings.

"Need help?" I asked and chuckled as she glared at me.

"He's been fed, burped, changed, and bathed."

"I don't know what to do anymore," she sighs, and I walk over and take hold of Xander. He instantly calms down and looks into my eyes.

"Hey, little man, why are you giving Mommy such a hard time?" I say as Rachel looks at me.

"How did you do that?" she asks, and I chuckle.

"Well, he just loves me more, that's all," I laugh as she growls and smacks my arm.

"You're a jerk," she pouts and picks up Xayden.

I sat in my chair rocking Xander, picked up the office, and dialed the number for Alpha Patrick. After a few rings, he finally picked up the phone, and his Irish accent spoke.

"This is Alpha Patrick," he said as I heard giggling in the background.

"Alpa Patrick, it's Alpha Ace," I said, and I knew the giggling was Carissa.

"Ace, how's it going, my friend?"

"First thing first. That bloody Alpha Major and I have been trying to call you lad."

"We have some news to share with you," I chuckled into the phone.

Before we got down to business, Patrick asked about the training session. I told him how things went and what we learned. I also told him how I damn near got my ass handed to me by two bears. I heard Patrick howling with laughter as I rolled my eyes.

"Ah, lad, that sounds like a lot."

"Let me get that bloody Alpha Major on the phone one sec, lad," I thought for a minute and told Alpha Patrick to video call me instead so we could all see each other and discuss the impending war.

Rachel POV

Watching Ace and the other two Alphas talk about the war on video chat made me uneasy. I gently rocked Xayden as he stared at me and cooed. Xander was quiet while his father held him and talked. He was a daddy's boy, and Xayden only liked to be held by me, Staci, or my Mother.

I giggled and kissed Xayden's chubby cheek. When I heard that Alpha Patrick had killed Matthew, my interest was piqued, and I listened closely to the conversation.

"Lads, that bloody shit came to my pack and demanded that I give him Carissa," I heard Alpha Patrick say as Alpha Major added his side.

"Well, that's one less asshole we have to deal with," I heard Ace tell the guys as they continued to talk about the fight and Matthew's wolf abandoning him.

"What did you do with the body?" Ace asked. I saw the look in Alpha Patrick's eyes, and he smirked.

"I burned his body but sent his head to Alpha Silas and Alpha Simon on a platter," Alpha Patrick laughed as I cringed and almost threw up my lunch.

"That's disgusting," Rayne said.

"They fucked with us first, so I'm going to fuck with them right back," Alpha Patrick nearly shouted into the screen, and I watched as Carissa rubbed his shoulders to help calm him down.

"We need to do another group training to be prepared for anything," Ace told the guys.

"That's a good idea. Let's video call the other allies and devise a plan for a group training session," Alpha Major suggested as Ace and Patrick nodded.

After thirty minutes, the Crescent Moon, Silver Moon, Golden Moon, Dark Moon, Midnight Moon, Wind Howler, Redwood, and the Black Paw Clan were all on video conference. Even more surprising was seeing the Vampire King Magnus on the video conference.

He said he would send reinforcements in two days to help with the training session. According to King Magnus, Ozul was an old friend of his Father's, and he said that Ozul had over three dozen vampires at his disposal. Espen had filled in the gap with the rogue King Prax. Espen stated that he had about two dozen rogues in his pack, and with Stone Valley and Red River joining in, they almost outnumbered us by half.

The problem wasn't the numbers. It was the weapons they had at their disposal. Everyone planned to come to the Blue Eclipse pack for another training session. Ace filled everyone in on the witch that had helped Alpha Simon and engineered the weapons used to kill some of our warriors and Espen's.

I heard growls come through the speaker as the twins started wailing. I went to the other side of the office and mind-linked Staci to come and help me with the twins since my Mother had plans today with Elizabeth. After Staci came with Antonio and Ana right behind her, she collected Xander from Ace, and I passed her a bottle to feed him.

"Thanks," she said as I smiled and nodded.

"Where's Adonis?" I asked as I didn't see him with his family.

"He's hanging out with Carlos and their friends in the game room."

"You know, teenage boys and video games," Staci chuckled, and I felt a presence beside me and looked to see Ana with a broad smile.

After getting the boys fed, they finally calmed down while Staci and I talked. I occasionally listened to the conversation between Ace and the other Alphas. At the same time, his Father watched with pride at his son's hard work.

"Can I hold Xander?" Ana asked as she sat on the couch between her Mother and me.

"Sure," I said as she smiled and held her hands out for her nephew.

I gently passed Xander to Ana as he stared at her, and she giggled.

"Xerxes said he needs a diaper change ASAP," Ana laughs, passes Xander back to me, and asks for Xayden.

I sigh and go into the bathroom to change Xander. I hear giggling as Ana is probably talking to Xico, Xayden's wolf. I return with a freshly changed Xander, sit back on the couch, and look at Ana and Xayden.

"What are you two talking about?" I smile as Ana looks at me.

"Oh, he was just telling me."

"He likes the sound of your voice, along with mine, Mom's, and his Grandmother Sarah's."

"I think he'll be a lady's man," Ana giggles while I stare wide-eyed.

I look at Staci as she shrugs and watches, and a thought pops into my head.

"Staci?" I ask as her eyes focus on me.

"Yes, dear," she says and smiles.

"What age do white wolves get their powers?" I ask.

She smiles, grabs Xayden back from Ana, gets up, and skips over to sit by her Father.

"According to my parents."

"I started showing early signs of my powers at age 5."

"But honestly, I don't know. Considering Ace and I are the only ones."

"But Ace's powers didn't awaken until his 18th birthday," Staci said as I gasped. I looked at Ana and her Dad as they played a game on his iPhone.

"Ana is displaying a power I've never seen before," Staci mentioned, looking at her mate and daughter.

I think about what Staci said. Everything is starting to make sense to me now.

"Are you worried, Rachel?" Staci asks, and I look at her, shaking my head.

"No, I just want to be prepared for anything," I say and smile.

Well, you have nothing to fear."

"We are all here to help along the way," Staci says, and we fall into deep conversation.

A Few Days Later:

Ace POV

For the last few days, group training has been exhausting. Sometimes, I would run a double-day training to ensure everyone was on the same page, and then I would have to train with my Mom. I was at the training field again, with Espen and Björn doing weapons training and learning to use all four elements again. I have only slept a little in the last few days. Between Alpha duties, training, and helping Rachel with the twins, I was exhausted, so my powers needed to be at complete compasses today. I was getting knocked on my ass left and right.

"Come on, Ace, that's the fifth time," I heard Espen sigh.

"We should take a break for today and pick this back up tomorrow before regular training begins."

"You should get some rest, Alpha," I growled and stood back up, dusting myself off.

"I don't need to rest. I need to be prepared," I growl at them.

"Well, training in an unrested state will get you nowhere, Alpha Ace."

"Your energy is low, and your body is tired."

"Trust me, and take a day or two to rest," Björn said as they collected their training weapons.

I sighed, walked off the field, and returned to the castle. I hate to admit it, but they were correct, and I needed to rest. I won't be any good in a fight if I'm too tired to help protect my pack. After walking through the side patio door, I head toward the elevator and push the button for the eighth floor. Once the doors closed, the elevator ascended to our floor.

After the elevator stopped on our floor, the doors opened, and I stepped off and walked toward our suite. I walked inside and noticed the place was quiet.

"Rachel?" I called and sniffed the air. Her scent was faint, so she must still be in the office.

I took a quick shower and put on some boxers and sweatpants. I lay in bed, and soon after my head hit the pillow, I was out like a light.

"Ace..." I groaned and felt lips on my neck and chest. The scent of honeysuckle hit me as I slowly opened my eyes.

I blinked, and when my vision adjusted, Rachel was straddling my lap, wearing a royal blue negligee. Her breasts were spilling out from the top. Apollo howled in my head as I stared at our mate.

"Hey, handsome... So, your Mom and Dad are babysitting for the night, and I was hoping we could have some fun," Rachel said as she lowered the strap and wiggled her ass.

I was instantly hard as my hands explored Rachel's body. I heard her giggle.

"I take it to you like the negligee," she smiled and kissed my lips.

"I want you to make love to me all night, Alpha."

"Mmm, I missed having your big cock thrust inside my tight pussy," Rachel purred in my ear as she started grinding her hips.

I growled and flipped us over as Rachel gasped. I attacked Rachel's neck with kisses as my tongue glided over my mark on her neck. She shivered in delight. I lifted the negligee and noticed Rachel wasn't wearing any panties. I growled as my eyes turned onyx, and Rachel squirmed in my hold.

"Bad Alpha," Rachel bit her lip and tried to close her legs.

"You better not," I looked at Rachel as she shivered in pleasure. I dipped my head down and kissed her inner thigh as she gasped and moaned.

"Ace," she whispered. I sniffed her arousal and groaned in satisfaction.

I wasted no time making Rachel moan my name as I rolled my tongue over her engorged bud and licked her slit.

"Fuck yes. Oh!" Rachel sighed and bucked her hips.

She grabbed a handful of my curls as I slid my tongue inside her channel and tasted her sweet essence.

"Oh, My Goddess! Ace!" she screamed.

I looked up at Rachel as she was eyeing me and playing with her hard nipples. She moaned and gasped when I started rubbing her clit.

"Yes, Alpha, let me cum!" she screamed as I replaced my tongue with my fingers and helped Rachel reach the edge of her orgasm.

"Like that little flower?" I purred and sucked her clit.

It wasn't long before Rachel was gushing over my fingers and panting. I pulled my fingers out and licked up her sweetness as she moaned and came down from her high.

"Such a bad, bad Alpha," Rachel said with lust in her eyes.

I leaned over her and kissed her lips with a fiery passion. She moaned, slid her hands into my sweat, grabbed my stiff shaft, and stroked me a few times. I growled as she started stroking me faster and groaned.

"Rachel," I purred as she smiled and helped me slide my sweatpants and boxers off.

"So big," she whispered, her eyes raking over my body and shaft.

Rachel flipped me on my back and straddled my lap. She leaned toward my ear.

"Hold on tight, Alpha," she purred.

I felt Rachel grab my shaft and slowly lower herself on my cock as she let out a long moan.

"Goddess, Ace," she moaned and bounced her hips.

Rachel POV

I bucked my hips and placed Ace's hands on my waist so he could help me ride his cock. I moaned as I felt him go deeper, all the way to the hilt, and rode his cock harder.

"Ace! Ace! Ace!" I screamed.

Goddess, he felt so good. I missed being close to him and having his arms around me. He grunted and growled as we looked at each other, and I placed my palms on his chest, riding his cock faster.

"Please, right there, baby," I moaned.

I felt my orgasm building, and I leaned down to kiss Ace's lips as he grabbed my ass and started thrusting deeper into my tight channel.

"Goddess!" I screamed and came hard on Ace's cock as he roared and stilled inside me, coating my inner walls with his silky seed.

I was in ecstasy bliss as that orgasm nearly stole my breath away. I panted and kissed Ace's neck. I gasped as Ace flipped me over on all fours and growled in my ear.

"My turn, little flower," Ace said in a much deeper voice. I turned and noticed his glowing eyes.

"Apollo?" I said and shivered in pleasure from the dominance he was displaying.

He smirked and grabbed my hips, pulling me back on his thick cock. I screamed in pleasure as Apollo started pounding me from behind. The mattress squeaked, the headboard hit the wall, and you could hear our skin slapping together as he showed me who the Alpha was. My eyes rolled to the back of my head as our moans and cries of pleasure filled our bedroom.

"Apollo!" I screamed as my walls clenched his cock.

I gasped as my walls spasmed, and I squirted all over Ace's cock.

"YES!!!" I heard Apollo roar as he filled my womb and bit down on my mark. The pleasure alone caused me to cum again.

I collapsed on the bed, panting and moaning as I felt a pair of lips on my back.

"Mmm," I moaned out and looked behind me to see Ace was back.

He let me rest for a few minutes as he leaned his head toward my ear.

"Are you ready for more?" he purred, kissing my earlobe.

I moaned and turned over as Ace entered my core again. As promised, Ace made me scream his name and made love to me all night until the early hours of the morning. By the time Ace finally let me sleep, it was nearly six am. He sent out a massive mind-link to everyone to take the day off and enjoy their families.

Ace also linked Carlito to call the allied packs to say that training was canceled for the day. I curled into Ace's chest and sighed happily as he wrapped his arms around me.

"I love you, Ace," I said, kissing his lips and closing my eyes.

"I love you too, little flower," was the last thing I heard before the darkness took over.
