The Alpha’s Fight for His Omega by Jess K

Chapter 49

Chapter 49

***Rowen***

I was up, and out of bed way too early for any normal person today. Today I wasn’t a normal person though. Today I was a man excited about seeing his mate. Earlier in the week Colby, and I came up with the idea of me going to Dark Moon with him on Sunday to surprise my sweet girl. I miss her, and really

want to see her.

It’s been hard to keep my coming with Colby a secret, but we have both managed it. I couldn’t wait to see the look on her face when she saw me. I hoped she would be happy. I was so excited I practically bounced out of my bed at 4:00 in the morning. Colby had to be at Denu by 9:00 for his interview so we were getting on the road at 4:30. That should put us there by 8:30. That would give him time to drop me off at Cloverland, and he could get to his interview on time.

I was sitting in the living room, knee bouncing, a bag of t-shirts next to me for my sweet girl, when he finally made it downstairs. He was yawning, and rubbing his eyes. He looked like he was barely awake. He at least showered, and put on appropriate clothes for an interview. I jumped up as soon as I saw him.

“Aww man. It’s too early to have that much energy.” Colby grumbled.

“I’m just excited.” I responded.

Yeah. Yeah I hear ya. I’m gonna grab a coffee then we can hit the road, but you’re driving. I’ll probably sleep during the drive.”

“Sure, but there’s no coffee made yet. They don’t start it until six.”

“Damn it. How the hell do you have so much energy this time a day then?”

“I’m going to see my mate. Come on. The coffee shop in town is always open. You can get a coffee there.”

“Yeah sure. Lets go.”

I grabbed the keys to one of the smaller cars, and headed out the door, Colby shuffling behind me. He threw a duffle bag in the back seat, and dropped in next to me. Without another word, I headed to the pack coffee house. Colby grumbled when we got there, but went to get his coffee after asking if I wanted. anything. I asked for a water, and a muffin. With a nod he disappeared into the shop. Five minutes later he dropped into his seat, gave me my stuff, and took a sip of his coffee.

“Shit. This crap is awful. How the hell did short stack make better coffee than a place who’s entire business is making coffee?” Colby grumbled then took another sip.

“I don’t know. Why don’t you ask her how she makes it?” I suggested pulling back onto the road, and heading out of the pack lands.

“I don’t want to come off like an ass, and remind her of the shit she went through. I was always snapping

at her for my coffee back then. If I spoke to her at all.” He responded between sips.

“Well you are an ass so…. If that is so awful why are you still drinking it?”

“Fuck off dick bag. I’m only drinking it to wake the fuck up.”

“How the hell do you manage third shift patrols when you’re this pissy so early in the morning?”

“Easy. I’ve already been awake for hours, and I know my ass will be crawling into my bed soon. I WAS in my damn bed until twenty minutes ago. There’s a difference.”

“If you say so.”

“Dude, are you going to be this annoying the whole drive? I might regret bringing you if you are.”

“Nah. Probably not.”

“Thank the goddess for that.”

“So what will this interview consist of?”

“I gotta talk to the Dean, and the head of training about my skills, and what training I’ve done so far. After that I have to spar with a warrior or two to show my fighting skills. Last they have someone hide then. move around in the campus woods. I have to track, and catch them within an hour.”

“Sounds like a test more than an interview.”

“Yeah, but they gotta do it. It’s easy to talk a good game, but you gotta back it up. They’re not just gonna take your word for it. They only let something like five people in a year. They gotta make sure the people they accept aren’t wasting their time.”

“That makes sense. What made you decide to do this?”

“No one really knows this, but Joe asked me to track down the rogue that killed Jane, and bring him in. He asked our other trackers, but they’re getting older now, and starting to show signs of that. I took a couple of warriors. I had him tracked, caught, and in the dungeon in about forty eight hours. After your mom’s service your dad pulled me aside, and told me about this school. I’ve been working toward it ever since.”

“Damn man. Thanks for doing that.”

“It was nothing. Your mom was good people. Always treated me well. That bitch Aurora always ignored me, and Beta training wasn’t for me. I did it so I could help Jax, and to make dad proud, but I never enjoyed it. Dad knew I hated it. He told me I didn’t have to if I didn’t want to. He was proud of me either way. Told me he appreciated me doing it even though I hated it. When I told him about wanting to do this, he stopped Beta training all together. Instead he started helping me learn to track. It was a little like hide” n seek which was my favorite game to play as a kid. We had good times out in those woods together. Still do. Even though I’m just about done all my training for this school, dad still takes an hour or two out of everyday, usually after dinner, to get out in the woods to work my skills.”

“Wow. That’s pretty awesome.”

“Yeah. He may not seem like it with the Chastity shit, but he’s a damn good dad. If he had known what was really happening to her, I think he would have stopped it, and got those three the hell away from her.”

“You really think so.”
