Alpha's Second Chance novel Chapter 76

OLIVIA

It has been a long and eventful day for us all, and I am sure that everyone feels that way. It was quiet this night in the dining hall, and everyone had heard what had happened. We were sitting at our table and eating, and several Alphas and their Lunas came over to express their sympathy.

When we were almost done eating, another shadow hit the table, and looking up, I saw that it was Carter. I know he know it would feel a little different because he is now an Alpha.

“Alpha Logan. LUNA Olivia. I heard about your warrior. I apologize for not coming sooner. But as you can imagine, I got a little distracted.” He says as he bows his head in respect.

“Alpha Carter. It sounds right, doesn’t it?” I ask him and smile.

“It does. But also a little strange.” He answers.

“It is a strange feeling to get all that power,” Logan says as we stand up and bow our heads respectfully.

“Please, don’t,” Carter says with a face saying he finds it all strange.

“You need to get used to it, Alpha Carter,” I say and smile.

“That might be, but you are like family Olivia. And I hope that won’t change.” He says pleadingly.

“Liv and her family owe you a lot Carter, and so do I. So as for family, you and your pack are just that.” Logan says, deliberately not using any titles. And reach out a hand to Carter, something you rarely see an Alpha do.

“And The Dark Forest Pack will always stand by your side, should you ever need it,” Carter says and take Logan’s hand and shake it shortly.

With that, he sits down with us and talks. He tells us about what happened at the meeting and about they had transferred the Alpha powers to him. We also talk about his dad. He has a bad feeling that none of this is over and tells Logan not to let down his defenses. And Logan promises him he won’t. When we finally get up, it is late, and we all go to rest for the night, for tomorrow, the battles will begin, the part of the tournament that I have looked forward to the most.

“Thank you, Alpha.” Both warriors say, bowing deep, showing that they submit to me, their Alpha.

“Good luck, both of you. Do your best, and know we believe in you.” Olivia says. And they bow for her as well.

“Thank you, Luna.” They say, looking proud and ready for battle.

When we are done talking with Klaus and the warriors, I take Olivia to our seats between the other pack leaders. To wait for this part of the tournament to begin very soon. It is a bit funny to see how excited Liv is for this part of the tournament. But I know it’s because it is this part of it she wants to be in when she can compete. And also because she is the one that found the warriors to be competing this year.

Almost an hour later, the seats are filled up, and an Elder is walking out on the field, that now built with small fighting areas where the battles will be going on. As before the other games, the elders talk about how today will be done. And as with any other beginning, he takes a break before he yells.

“LET THE BATTLE BEGIN.”
