Impregnated By The Female Alpha

Chapter 23: Softer

Liam’s POV

One of my hands held Anastasia by her waist and the other one wrapped around her to help her stand straight instead of bending to the back and falling off the stairs.

As a natural reflex, Anastasia clenched my shoulder so roughly to the point that I could feel her nails getting pushed into my skin.

It was not painful at all though because I had clothes on and also because her nails were not too pointy and sharp, they were more almond-shaped and not that even that long.

I was about to open my mouth to ask if she was okay, but the words got stuck in my throat when I noticed how she was staring at my face.

Her stares were not as her usual ones, her eyes for some reason looked softer while she was looking into my eyes.

+Liam’s POV end

Anastasia held onto the male’s shoulder tightly, afraid of falling down the stairs.

The second her eyes met his, every single memory of yesterday that she thought she had forgotten flashed in her mind.

"Alpha?"

"Are you okay?"

"Would you like me to bring you to your room, alpha?"

"Can you drink this?

"Would you like me to do anything else for you?"

"The heels. Take them off."

"Okay, but you can’t walk barefoot after. I’ll bring your slippers right away after that."

"I’ll go get you something to put on for now."

"A...Alpha?"

"Alpha are you still with me?"

"I’m carrying you. I’m sorry if this will piss you off tomorrow but I can’t keep watching struggling to walk like this."

"Nothing, the alpha is drunk and wants to go to her room."

"It’s okay, you can give her to Scott, he will bring Anastasia to her room."

"NO!!"

" The makeup,"

"You are so beautiful,"

"You are beautiful from the inside and outside. When you walked in that room earlier in the party, not one single person could take their eyes off of you because you are so elegant, so powerful, so strong, and just better than all of them."

Anastasia’s eyes slightly widened as she stared at Liam in disbelief.

She could not believe her own mind.

" Oh, I’m sorry." Her eyes caught how Liam helped her stand straight and instantly moved his hands away from her waist, apologizing for putting them there even though he did not even mean to.

Her mind unconsciously compared Liam to Scott.

Everything made sense now.

Her hands kept gripping Liam’s shoulder blades, as she kept staring at his face silently.

Liam gulped nervously, not knowing the reason why the head alpha was staring at him this way out of a sudden.

He is very happy to have her close to him and to have her eyes on him but he is kind of scared because, in the back of his mind, he is afraid of the fact that the moonflower would wear off and expose himself. ƒrēewebnovel.com

" Alpha, are you ok...?" Before he could finish talking, Anastasia removed her hands from his shoulders and ran upstairs, disappearing into her room.

Liam stood there on the stairs, as he blinked multiple times in confusion and surprise at how Anastasia ran away out of the blue " Did I do something wrong?"

He scratched the back of his head and sighed with a frown on his face before heading to the kitchen to make something for Alexander.

Liam’s POV

While I was sitting in Alexander’s room, studying together and doing homework, my ears perked up.

Someone is screaming.

" Stay here, Alex. I will be right back." Right after saying this, I stood up and hurried to the elevator to head downstairs, following the source of the screaming sound.

I found the head alpha standing in the middle of the living room.

Her fists were narrowed, and her angry pheromones were spread all over the room, there was a fair shade of red around her eyes that were focused on one thing only.

The one warrior who is screaming out of pain and lying down on one of the big couches in the living room.

This warrior seems to be in his late thirties and just by looking at what he is wearing, I can tell that he is one of the warriors that guard the borders of our pack territory.

I stepped closer, standing by the head alpha’s side, only to notice the big amount of blood sliding down the warrior’s leg.

The two of us stood there, watching the warrior screaming out of pain and his other fellows holding his leg, trying to take the arrow out of it.

" Call the pack doctor, what are you waiting for?" At some point, they pissed me off because of how they kept surrounding the injured warrior without any of them going to bring the doctor, which is why I could not help but yell at them.

One of the warriors glanced at me and spoke " We already did. I don’t know why they are taking too much time. Can you please go see why?"

I immediately nodded and was about to rush out of the packhouse so that I could bring the doctor here, but I felt a cold hand wrap around my wrist and pull me back.

I looked down at my mate’s hand that was holding my wrist before lifting my gaze to her face, trying to understand why she did that.

Before I could ask, two of the pack doctors walked into the packhouse, holding their bags as they rushed toward the injured warrior and started to check his injury.

" What happened, Anastasia?" That was asked by the mother alpha who stepped inside the living room with her husband and Scott who came running with his parents too.

Anastasia didn’t answer her mother, she just kept standing there watching the doctors doing their job and tightly holding my wrist.

" We believe it was a rogue attack, alpha." One of the fellows of the injured wolf was the one who answered the question of the mother alpha.

A rogue attack?

What sane wolf would dare to attack our pack now?

There has to be something wrong.

I glared at Scott when he suddenly stood in front of us, staring at the alpha’s hand that was still holding my wrist " Ana? What did he do? Why are you holding his hand?" freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Really?

I would have laughed loudly at him if I could but I preferred to stay quiet.

Anastasia didn’t answer him either, she just kept staring at the doctors.

I noticed how Scott peaked at the mother alpha, it seems like they are talking in their mind link.

Mind link is a bond that connects every single wolf in our pack to their close friends, families, mates, and children. This bond allows two wolves or more to talk to each other through their minds without having to actually let words out of their mouth, it comes in handy the most when we are in our wolf forms.

"Anastasia, let go of Liam. He must be busy." Busy who? Who the hell is busy? I’m not busy.

I love the mother alpha but since she asked me to give Anastasia to that guy yesterday, I’m not very fond of her anymore and now she is just getting on my nerves by asking my mate to let me go.

The good thing is that Anastasia did not answer her nor did she do as Elisabeth asked, instead she kept holding my wrist as tight as before and ignoring what the mother alpha said.

" Is he going to be alright?" I asked in worry as I stepped forward, closer to the couch where the injured warrior was whimpering and shivering in pain.

He is sweating and he looks like he is between consciousness and unconsciousness.

I felt so bad for him.

" I’m not sure. There is a lot of wolfsbane in his system." The people present in the room gasped when the word wolfsbane entered our ears.

wolfsbane is a purple flower, and it’s poisonous to us werewolves, it can make us lose control, fall sick, lose our strength, and make even the strongest of us weak and it can be deadly if it enters our system in a big amount.

As I walked closer, the head alpha followed me while still holding my wrist, as we both checked on the injured warrior.

" The pack is not safe anymore. Caleb, I need you to collect every single omega and child and keep them safe in the old packhouse." Suddenly the head alpha spoke, commanding her guard Caleb who immediately nodded and jogged out of the house with his co-workers, to go look for their other fellows so that they could separate and collect omegas faster.

Wait, is that the reason why she didn’t let me leave the packhouse?

There is no way.

Also, I need to go get my mother.

"Ana, could you please let go of Liam now?" Scott came forward and bravely grabbed my forearm and Anastasia’s hand in order to pull them apart.

His legs failed him, and his hands fell to his sides when Anastasia suddenly growled at him, making him fall to his knees " Back off."

I can see the hairs on his body standing straight, shivers rush all over his body when Anastasia releases her alpha command.

" ANASTASIA!!!" The mother alpha yelled at her daughter and tried to stop her, but Anastasia held her other hand up, stopping her mother in the spot "That’s enough, mother."

Those three words were enough to stop Elizabeth from trying to defend Scott.

" Liam." My heart almost jumped out of my chest when Anastasia turned around and looked at me with the same soft... No, I mean a bit softer than her usual emotionless look in her eyes just like earlier at the stairs.
