Her Second Chance Alpha

Chapter Two

Hunter’s POV

My eyes locked onto Ellie’s she was so pale and beautiful, she had long brown hair and ocean blue eyes, She had grown into such an amazing woman her curves were amazing. I wanted to run up to her and never let her go. She was Beautiful. ‘We should make her our mate’ my wolf howled in enjoyment. ‘We have a mate remember, Heather is 18 and she has already said she can feel the bond but is waiting for me to feel it to’ my wolfs eyes rolled as he walked away sulking.

I quickly reached for Heather and pulled her close to my hip. It was weird that the connection I felt with Heather wasn’t as strong as the pull I felt from Ellie’s gaze. “Ellie I’d like for you to meet my mate and your future Luna.” She looked at me horrified as if I had told her I was going to kill her. “Her name is Heather” I could barely bring myself to finish the sentence she looked so sad, my wolf was whimpering all of a sudden and I couldn’t get him to calm down. Ellie’s eyes went wide as she was trying to say something but then she fell to the floor with a thud, I ran to her side immediately picking her up and demanding for everyone to step aside. I carried her up to my new quarters looking down at her unconscious in my arms I found myself lost in her scent. I quickly opened the door to my room and lay her on the sofa at the far end before gently stroking a strand of hair off of her face and tucking it behind her ear.

“What the f**k is going on?!” Scoffed Heather from the door way.

I continued to ignore her while keeping my gaze locked on Ellie. God she’s grown up so Beautiful. But what could I do? She has a mate somewhere and we were just childhood friends? Right? ‘i***t’ my wolf screamed. But I just shook my head at the thought and stood up, walking towards Heather I could see her scowling at Ellie’s Lifeless body as she lay there passed out.

I grabbed Heathers arm and pulled her out of the room and to the top of the staircase which was down the hall from the door. “Why were you just stroking that bitches face like that Hunter?” Heather whaled.

“Don’t raise your voice to me…” I said in alpha command, to which she bowed her head in submission. “…Me and Ellie have history.. not the way you think but I can’t just leave her she is important to me and I will let no harm come to her-…” My trail of thought was lost as I heard movement coming from the bedroom.

I ran to the door and swung it open to make sure she was ok, and there she was, standing there with lust in her eyes admiring my new adult form. I quickly closed the door behind me and stepped closer. She takes my breath away.

Eleanor’s POV

I could hear people arguing in the distance as I slowly opened my eyes to see nothing but a light which made me squint them shut and move my hand to cover my face. As I slowly sat up I felt a sharp pain at the back of my head where I must have hit the ground. I rubbed it with my left hand to try and sooth some of the pain. Once I was fully up I removed my hand from my face and looked around. I was in a room I didn’t recognise. The bed was huge and professionally made with cream silk sheets as I looked around I seen a ceiling to floor glass window looking out to the woods at the back end of the Pack House, standing up I could tell I was on the upper level of the house. The Alpha’s level. ‘s**t WE NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE’ my wolf screamed, I quickly ran to the door not knowing why I was here instead of my level of the house. As I reached for the handle the door swung open, and there he was, an angry faced Hunter whose expression softened as soon as he saw me.

He was taller than I remembered. He was wearing a long sleeved white top which clung to his every muscle, I could see his six pack through his top and his biceps where a lot bigger and made him look more masculine than he did when he was 15. He was wearing black skinny jeans which showed off the structure of his powerful legs and I couldn’t help myself but stare. For a little too long apparently as I heard a manly chuckle come from in front of me, My eyes darted to his as he looked at me with that jaw dropping killer smile and amusement in his eyes. I tried my best to keep eye contact but I couldn’t. I quickly bowed in front of him “Welcome home Alpha” I heard a low growl as I felt his hand around my arm helping me to stand up straight. “Don’t call me that Ellie” He said with a stern look on his face. I couldn’t help but look back down at my fingers unsure of what to do.

We stood in silence for a couple of minutes before he took a deep breath and pulled my face up to meet his stare with his index finger under my chin. “How have you been El?” he said with a longing expression. Before I could reply Heather swung the door open and glared at me before looking back to Hunter.

“She has to go. I’m not living in the same house as this whore.” She spat darting her eyes back to me.

“She’s not going anywhere!” Hunter demanded looking at Heather with pure rage. “…and she’s not a w***e I told you before! We have a history but not like that! If you question me again I will banish you from my pack” he scowled.

Just when I thought this couldn’t get any more awkward our Mothers entered the room and started planning our birthday party and Hunter’s Alpha ceremony. They both turned and looked at us with blank expressions as I muttered “I need to go train. I’m sure Hunter knows what to do with the party” I looked up at him while he looked at me with a pissed off gaze. I quickly shrugged my shoulders and bowed my head to Heather out of respect as I quickly exited the room. The tension in there could be cut with a knife and I wanted to be nowhere near it. Besides, I wasn’t lying, I needed to train.

I walked into the Pack Gym on the right hand side of the Pack House, it was empty, just how I liked it. The thought of Hunter returning just made me confused and angry but I didn’t know why. ‘You love him’ my wolf muttered, I quickly shook my head and started warming up before a strong presence made me turn quickly. Hunter was at the entrance wearing his gym clothes and strolled in until he was stood right in front of me. “I’m sorry Heather spoke to you like that” he said looking nervous and stroking the back of his head. What was wrong with him? He looked almost guilty?

“It’s ok.” I quickly responded, looking down at my fingers again.

“Ellie, we need to talk…” He looked at me with a blank expression… I didn’t know what to do I have never seen Hunter act this way. “…You can’t attend the party tomorrow night.”

My stomach dropped. I felt sick. “W-What do you mean I can’t attend? It’s our 18th Birthday? We always celebrate together…I-I know we haven’t recently but that’s none of our faults.” I stuttered looking confused and searching his eyes to try and find and explanation.

“Heather won’t come if you are anywhere near the Pack House, please don’t make this any harder than It has to be. She’s my mate and I don’t want to have to choose” My eyes filled up as I felt a tear roll down my cheek I quickly brushed it away. With pure anger I responded.

“How do you even know she’s your mate anyway? You aren’t even the right age yet? And what you’re going to banish me from celebrating my birthday at my home with my pack, friends and family?” My wolf was so angry I could feel my fists clenching at the sides of my body, I felt my claws digging into the palms of my hands and blood dripping to the floor. I stood there looking at him with pure hate. How could he do this to me? We grew up together and he doesn’t even want me at my own party?

He looked at me in disbelief and his eyes turned black, I knew his wolf was now talking. He walked over to me so close that I could feel his breath on my skin. As he bent down and whispered into my ear, he said the one thing I never thought I would ever hear “I…Alpha Hunter Green Reject you Eleanor Hale from the Crimson Shadow Pack. You will leave this land and not return unless invited. You will say goodbye and walk away.” He quickly turned and stormed off slamming the door shut so that the glass shattered all over the floor with the sheer force of his strength. I fell to the ground, pulled my legs to my chest and sobbed. My skin felt like it was on fire as all links and pack scents left my body. After a few minutes the pain was still there but it was bearable enough for me to stand and walk. As I left the gym my suitcases were already packed in the centre of the house as I approached I heard my mother screaming in pain clutching her chest as my father had hold of her trying to sooth her. I looked around and could not see Hunter, instead I seen heather slowly walking over to me with her arms crossed and a wicked grin stretched across her face. As she reached me she leant over and whispered into my ear “I. Will. Always. Win.” My wolf was in so much pain that she couldn’t be reached, I was so angry I wanted to rip her apart. Alpha Rob and Luna Rose quickly came to my side and gave me a small smile as they quickly helped me carry my bag into a car waiting out front.

I climbed into the car as it sped off to the south border of the pack’s land. I didn’t know where I was going or what I could do next; all I could do was look at the road ahead. The car stopped sharply at the edge of the border, the driver climbed out removed my luggage from the car and looked at me sadly before saying “Im so sorry Miss Hale. You are now at the border and I cannot take you any further” With that said he bowed his head and climbed back into the car, reversing until finally turning around and leaving me in the middle of nowhere surrounded by nothing but open fields and road. I quickly grabbed my belongings and started walking in the opposite direction to which we came. I didn’t know where I was going or what I was going to do. But there was one thing I knew for certain. I will return, and I will stay strong.
