Alec’s CHAPTER 86

Chapter 86

Never in my life have I felt the kind of fear I am feeling right now. I am Alec Ashford. The big bad alpha. Nothing terrifies me. Nothing shakes me. Well except for the terrified scream of my daughter.

“Is that Aspen?” Piper asks in confusion, her eyes now dry.

ised on Calvin

She already knew that the night Sadie and I were drugged resulted in a child. Just like me, she hasn’t interacted with Aspen. On her part, I think it’s mainly because she’s been and besides, even if she wanted to get to know her niece, I doubt Sadie would a.

Without giving her or her question a second thought, I get out of my office, rushing towards where her scream came from.

All kind of thoughts ran through my mind as fear gripped me. What if something bad happened to her? What if she is hurt? What was wrong? Why did she scream?

My heart felt heavy. My chest felt like it had a boulder on top of it, crushing it. Making it hard for me to breathe. My legs literally carry me as I rush to get to Aspen as quickly as I can.

“Slow down, Alec,” Piper’s voice carries towards me, but it sounds drowned out over the loud beating of my heart.

I ignore her and continue running. Soon I am out of the back door and outside. I scan the area, looking for any signs of my daughter but there are none. Sniffing the air around, I lock in on her

scent.

“Hurry up, she maybe in danger,” Knox urges me, his fear feeding me. He is pacing in my head in agitation.

I swear, if someone has hurt her, there will be hell to pay. I know my pack wouldn’t hurt a kid, especially my child. I didn’t tell them about Aspen, though. I didn’t think there would be a need, given she looks just like me.

Knox gives me his strength. Aspen’s scream came from the training arena. I speed there, probably going faster that I’ve ever gone in my entire life.

I

get there. My heart stops beating for a second when my eyes fall on one of my pack members, gripping Aspen’s hand tightly while shaking her.

“Mommy! Help me,”

Tears fall down her green eyes as she screams in fear. She’s trying to pull her hand away from her but she won’t let her go.

A growl vibrates from my chest and I see red. My body starts to vibrate as both my essence and that of Knox combine. I know what is happening. It has happened before when I was furious. Instead of shifting into Knox, we both take control and we do a half shit, where we are not fully human and not fully wolf.
