The last male Alpha

3: The twin Alphas

 *Kaisa*

 I am backed up in the corner, and a man is coming towards me. My wolf Solstraale is growling. The man coming at me is tall and muscular, which is even easier to see with his chest bare and he has a feral look to him.

 Calmly I am watching his every move, trying to read him, to predict his next move. ‘Wait.. wait”. My wolf mumbles.

  Then he launches at me with a sneer, trying to knock me down.

 I duck his fist and kick his legs from under him with inhuman speed. Seconds later I am sitting on his chest and he signals that he gives up. I get to my feet and extend my hand to him, helping him to his feet.

 "Good one Alpha Kaisa, but next time I'll get you". Clint, my beta says, grinning at me, walking over to grab a bottle of water, emptying half of it in one long gulp.

 I shake my head, pulling the elastic from my fiery hair, letting it fall down on my shoulders, running a hand through it. My wolf is taking a victory leap. "I’ll believe that when I see it Clint".

 “Watch out my lady.. what is it they say: pride comes before a fall.. isn’t that it ?” He stretches his arms over his head, letting out a small pained sound. 

 I laugh and so does Solstraale with a barking sound. “It’s not pride, merely reality.. and now I will go grab a shower”.

 “Good idea.. you need it”. He wink at me, pinching his nose.

 I throw my sweaty towel in his face. “Hey, behave.. don’t forget I am your alpha.. I deserve respect”.

 I am not capable of keeping a straight face for a long time, so a few minutes later we are both laughing. We are not so strict here at The Sunnymoon Pack, me and my twin sister Tisha are the alphas, and we know we can trust everyone living here when needed so there is no reason to be too harsh on an everyday basis.

 “Go grab your shower, I will clean up here”. He says, throwing the towel back.

 I snatch it out of the air. “Thanks.. see you later”.

 Walking out into the hallway, I find my twin sister waiting, her silver eyes sparkling with mirth as she wiggles her eyebrows. “So did you get a good… work-out ?”

 “Tisha.. we were training”. I shake my head. “Clint is my beta”.

 ‘I agree, he is not the one for us’. Her voice is slightly sad, I know she longs for a mate.

 “So what, I can mention several alphas who married their betas.. and you don’t have to marry him, but you could use a little..”. She glances into the training room. “He does have a very nice ass on him”.

 I grab her arm, pulling her along. I do not want to risk Clint hearing. “I am not like you Tisha, no offence.. I am not really looking for a Luna or anything else.. and I prefer to keep my great working relationship with Clint”.

 Solstraale whimpers softly. ‘I want a luna.. why can’t we have a luna ?’

 “No offence taken”. She grins. “You could just really use to.. loosen up a bit and have some fun”.

 “I have fun.. just healthy wholesome fun.. I like reading, working and training”. I mumble, ignoring my wolf.

 She walks a little faster to keep up. “Sounds like great fun.. you know you can’t keep being hung up on..”.

 “I do not want to talk about him”. I snap her off. Solstraale has her paws over her nose, she doesn't want to talk about him either.

 “It’s been 3 years.. not all men are..”. She tries.

 I turn to her. “Tisha, I told you, I do not want to talk about it and now I will go take a shower.. see you later”.

 Getting into my room I take off the sweaty clothes and get into the shower, enjoying the feeling of the warm water running over me.

 ‘Are you okay Kaisa ?’ My wolf asks softly.

 “I am fine Solstraale”. I say softly, rubbing the shampoo into my hair. “But I do not talk to you about it either…not now… Okay ?”

 She doesn’t sound happy as she gives a little huff through her snout and says. ‘If that is what you want’.

 “It is.. now let me enjoy my bath”. I mumble.

 Unfortunately my thoughts have already slipped down that path and it is too late to stop them, no matter how much I want to.

 I had been lucky, I had met my mate, Taddeo at my twenty-first birthday party. He had only been nineteen and both me and Solstraale were swept off our feet. He was tall, blonde and handsome and very funny and outgoing.. a bit too much it turned out.

 I mean finding a true mate is not as common anymore as it used to be. My mother told me that before, back when there were also male alphas, most wolves found their mate… there are no longer any male alphas.

 Our history says that the male alphas were too dominated by their wolves, too many animals, they would be harsh on their pack, controlling their mate and fighting each other… and that is how they died out.. fighting each other's packs.

 And apparently Taddeo had too much of this left in him, because after about six months of what I thought was bliss and happiness I wanted to surprise him, but I was the one getting a surprise, finding him with another woman.

 He told me it was just s*x, that he was young and needed to sow his seeds, play the field, he had not been ready to find a mate, but it meant nothing because he still loved me.

 I told him to go f**k himself and rejected him, I have never regretted that, even if my poor Solstraale was crushed to lose her soul wolf Vuk. She did understand my choice though and supported me.

 Sighing, I turn off the water. I mean it’s not that I want to be alone for the rest of my life, but I already had one mate, chances of getting a second is slim. And even if it happened, would I be able to trust him then ?

 ‘Someone mature.. someone strong’. Solstraale says softly. ‘That is what we need, someone to protect us and raise us up, someone kind and.. someone faithful’.

 “I am afraid that is too much to ask”. I mumble, wrapping myself in a fluffy bathrobe.

 My wolf rolls up with a sigh of her own. ‘We never know, maybe he is out there’.

 I just wish she wouldn’t get her hopes up.
