Alpha Alec's Redemption by Kathy M

Alec.

Having Sadie in my arms was a totally new feeling. I can't describe it because I don't really understand it all. Feeling her next to me in that close and intimate way shifted something inside me. Something I couldn't even begin to try to explain.

Every cell of my body came to life. It's like they have been electrocuted back to life after a long time. Sparks and currents zapped inside me, making me feel alive after a long time of feeling dead inside.

I didn't think when I hugged her. All I knew was that she was worried, and I wanted to ease her worry. Wanted to help her carry the burden she was struggling with. Never once did I think that holding her close would bring feelings to the surface. Feelings I never thought I'd feel again after Lola.

Everything felt right. She felt right being in my arms. Like that is where she was always meant to be. I didn't want to let her go, something that surprised me to the core. I wanted her with me. I wanted to feel her. To have her. To mate her and make her mine, completely. I know that I had vowed to win her back, but having her this way felt different. I wanted her back because she's my mate. She's supposed to be my Luna. The feelings I got when I held her confused the living daylights out of me. At that moment, I wanted her as more than just my mate or Luna. I wanted her as my partner and the love of my life.

When she pushed me away, the tether that had held us close broke. I felt the cold immediately, as the warmth from her body and the bond disappeared. I wanted nothing but to pull her back to me. To hold on to her and never let her go. Ever again.
