Alpha Amarah by YLYANAH

Chapter 4

Amarah Again, I wake up in the middle of the night and quickly make my way out of the Pack house to hand over control to Minerva, giving her the chance to deal with the pain she’s feeling.

She doesn’t waste any time, crossing our border without being spotted by one of our Warriors.

It doesn’t take long for her to find a Rogue and shred him to pieces.

She keeps running along our borders, and some of the Rogues flee the moment they see Minerva approaching.

Those Rogues are left alone as they pose no threat to our Pack.

About an hour before sunrise, we run along our eastern border from south to north.

Suddenly, Minerva stops dead in her tracks, sniffing the air as she scans her surroundings.

“Blood, not a Rogue,” she tells me, and slowly makes her way toward a cluster of trees and boulders.

The scent of blood grows stronger the closer we get, and Minerva slows down even further, scanning her surroundings.

Suddenly, her ears perk up as we hear soft whimpers coming from within the cluster of trees and boulders.

Minerva steps cautiously into the trees to reveal a female covered in blood, with her arms wrapped around a Pup.

I ask Minerva to give me back control, and the female’s eyes widen as I stand before her.

She clearly wasn’t expecting a female to show up.

“Please, don’t send us back.

Please, don’t tell anyone we are here,” she whispers, her voice laced with despair.

I crouch down in front of her, taking in the cuts and bruises on her body.

Minerva roars in my head at the sight of her injuries.

“I won’t send you back, but I need to warn our Pack doctor.

I need to know that your Wolf will be able to heal this on her own, and I need to inform my Pack so our Warriors can keep an eye on you,” I tell her gently.

It takes a few minutes before she responds.

“My Wolf says she can heal this on her own as long as we don’t have to start running again.

I don’t know if I want anyone else to know that I’m here.

Can you give me a few days to think about it?” she asks, and I decide to give her some time to calm down and rest.

I tell her I’ll be back in a few minutes.

I shift into Minerva before bolting from the cluster toward our eastern border.
