His Weak Alpha [MxW]

Back Home

Chapter 33 - Present - Giselle

The mere thought of having a threat from hunters... That was the worst thing that could happen to a Werewolf Pack.

They might only be one or two of them, but that kind of threat wasn't something Werewolves would want to deal with no matter how many wolves there were to fight back against them.

... Many members in a Pack turned into a disadvantage when there were many pups and Humans among them.

So, they could be prepared, but it was always a challenge to deal with the inevitable when there were so many Omegas around. In other words... Hunters were dangerous, and the specialized ones were even worse...

This kind of hunter had prepared weapons that could hurt the Supernatural beings and the proper training that made them equal to the beasts of their stories.

Therefore, it was no easy task to fight against one of them, no matter how well trained a Werewolf could be for them...

Dylan and Magnolia knew it better than anyone as memories of how they ended up being turned into Werewolves came back to their minds.

"We can only hope that the worst doesn't happen, and to assure this, we need their help. Or rather, the help of all future Alphas of Mirror Night as my title would be useless to anyone if there isn't a Pack to lead in the future with it."

Alpha Dylan's words sounded much colder than his warm personality, far from the man who was always so kind as a father figure to me.

I wanted to comfort him and Alpha Magnolia, to calm their worried minds, but I had no idea what I could tell them then.

All the fears I had from hunters were taught to me by them, my grandmother, and all the other Werewolves of our Pack who lost their houses and families for these Humans in the past.

And even the ones we had dealt with in Mirror Night before were simple Humans who didn't know better about the lands they were stepping in as they believed our existence was only legends and myths.

... So, what could I say to the Alpha Couple now when I wasn't even here when such a threat arrived in our lands?

"Honestly, I'm glad to see you are back sooner than expected. I put you in the same group as Shade and Paola. This way, you don't have to worry about Owen or his friends."

Unsure whether or not I could be happy that this avoided further questioning from them to me, he continued to inform me of his orders that couldn't be avoided at such a critical time, even if he paired me up with someone I disliked.

"Thank you, Alpha. Alpha Magnolia. I will make sure to keep everyone safe as we take care of this situation in the better possible way to avoid any kind of casualty to our Pack." Although I didn't want to kill anyone if possible, the safety of the Pack came first, so... If need be, a dead hunter was better than any of us injured when they were only doing it for fun.

...They saw our lives as mere trophies, ignoring the cries of fear of those who fled to try to save themselves while using the excuse that we were the monsters who put their lives of Humankind at risk...

"I'm sure you will, Elle. Now go home and rest from your trip like you should have done in the first place instead of coming here to see us."

With a smile returning to his face, Alpha Dylan eventually said, turning me toward the door, basically kicking me back home if not for his Mate who stopped him.

"Wait, darling!"

She quickly spoke up along with the sound of something being wrapped, only to come towards me seconds later.

"Here, darling. I made more than enough for these big bad wolves who are helping us this morning. So, you can take some for you and Eddy as well as our little secret, and I'm sure he will make up with you right away as soon as he smells it."

Acting again like the Alpha Magnolia I had known since childhood, she put the treats in my hands before helping her husband shoo me out, closing the door as he went to meet with the other future Alphas.

… Leaving me with no choice besides going back home as soon, neither of them nor the Dominant wolves that accompanied them could be heard anymore as they disappeared into the woods not far from the Pack's House…

Tough times seemed to have arrived at Mirror Night in the few days I was away, yet as I looked up at the sky, I could only hope that it would all be over soon without any fear of our Alpha becoming true.

“MOMMY!!!”

Ironically, as I came back from my thoughts, Alpha Magnolia wasn't wrong about what she told me about Eddy.

The pup who had ignored me when I arrived became another one when I showed her cookies to him while trying to talk to him in his room.

... He quickly left the corner where he was hiding with his toys and crawled into my arms after I told him that I wouldn't share any with him since he didn't want to talk to me...

"I missed you too, pup. I promise I will never let you alone like this again, okay?" Forgetting about how he had called me, I hugged him back, feeling his childish scent which was still just like before, in the same way as our bond.

... However, was it too early to put that concern aside despite the Winter Witch's words? Or should I relax about it at least?

"I heard from Aunt Jiya that you've been giving your grandparents and uncle a hard time while I wasn't here and your father was sick. Is that true? Is my little Eddy a bad boy now?"

I asked, sitting with him on his bed then, only to see him disagree, shaking his head as fast as he could before eating another cookie after giving me one, putting a smile on my face about his simple way of peace agreement... Or would it be better to call it his little bribe to me?

"I wasn't a bad kid! I was just boring! You weren't here. Daddy was sick... And nobody wanted to play with me." Quickly speaking up, he informed me about his last couple of days, and despite his sentences seeming to miss a few more words, I could understand him without difficulty.

... It was these sweet moments that made those few days away seem like an eternity while I looked at him.

And amidst the happiness of being with my little one again, a new fear settled in my heart, making me forget the reason behind my trip and the spell I had begged desperately for Noah's help to have...

It also made me ignore his presence at the bedroom door or the forbidden word by which the puppy kept calling me while I just thought about how Edward was the most important thing to me right now.

... So, hugging him, I swore to myself that I would make sure the Pack was safe for a long time no matter what.
