Chapter 0333


    “Good. We need to talk when you''re settled.”


    | nod. I’m sure there is a lot to catch up on, but | need to speak with Grace, and 1 need to call Rik and let him know we made it


    home.


    | take Grace upstairs to what was my room. It’s not much, and there’s still so much work that needs to be done in this pack. As


    soon as we walk into the room, she turns to me.


    “I''m sorry, Maia took over and | know we didn’t discuss it...”


    | capture her lips with mine, showing her how happy | am that she imed me. When | pull back, | look at her. “I’m not sorry, not


    for a moment. Do | wish that it had been a bit more private, yes. But you staking your im on me in front of the entire pack?


    That was sexy as hell.”Original content from N?velDrama.Org.


    “You''re not mad?”


    “Mad that you marked me or mad that you did it in front of everyone?”


    “Mad that | marked you because that she—wolf*, she snarls the word, “touched what was mine.”


    “Whatever your reasons, I’m d you decided to mark me. | told you, with you, | have no limits. I’m yours Grace, yours and


    Maia’s.”


    | kiss her nose. “Now, | need a shower to wash off the mess you made by marking me.” | smirk at her as | step back. “But


    tonight? Tonight | will make you mine in every sense of the word. Are you prepared for that?”


    “Yes, Alpha.” She says, giving me a coy smile.


    | can’t help the growl that escapes as | close the short distance to her taking her in a passionate kiss. “I feel more like an Alpha


    when you say it than | do any other time. Usually, | feel like an imposter.”


    | turn and head to the shower, looking to make sure there are towels avable.


    “You''re more of an Alpha than you realize, Eli. You may not recognize it, but everyone out there does.” Grace says as | walk into


    the bathroom and turn on the shower.


    I step in, letting the water flow over my head. | feel Grace step in behind me. You''ve created something here, something special.


    People like us never had a ce to go, a safe ce to pick up the pieces and rebuild our lives. You’ve created


    +15 BONOS


    that here. That makes you an Alpha. A good Alpha.” She says, running her hands. over my back.


    I turn to her. “I know this isn’t the lifestyle that you probably had in mind when you thought about your future. But is this a life that


    you can see yourself having with me? There’s a lot of work that needs to be done, but | think, eventually, we could make it


    something amazing.”


    “| would love to build a life with you, Eli, build something where others like us cane and be safe. A sanctuary for those that


    are lost or need assistance.”


    | lean my forehead against hers. “How did | get so lucky to be mated to someone like you?”


    She pulls away. “You mean a Guardian?”


    | look at her. “No. Honestly, | wouldn’t care if you were an omega, or even a human. Hell, | thought you were a human when | first


    met you and | wasing back for you. Alpha Liam’s Beta is mated to a human and from what | hear, she’s incredible. It''s not


    about your gifts, although | think you have to be special in order to receive the Guardian spirit. It''s about who you are as a


    person, Grace. You may have been born an Alpha female, have be a Guardian, but you aren’t even having second


    thoughts about getting your hands dirty to build a pack almost from scratch.”


    She steps back up to me, wrapping her arms around my waist. “I’m not foolish enough to think that this will be easy, and we both


    have a lot to learn about running a pack, but if we’re together, | think we can do it. | feel like together, we can do anything we put


    our minds to.”
