Alpha Blake novel Chapter 36

　　"Alexander...you saw that wolf too right? Who was he?" He asks his wolf. Alexander, laying on his stomach, lifts his head and scuffs his nose.

　　"Why don't you call out to him? He's bound to be here somewhere! Or the rest of the wolves that were with him as well." Xander suggests.

　　"Someone out there? Who are you?" Blake turns on his heel and glances every inch reachable by sight. A small stir out in the far startles him. Grasping his dagger from behind his jeans he dreads the fact to have to fight anyone. 

　　He is tired, worried about Selene, and bloodthirsty for Damian's head. The last he wants is to be surprised by someone who dares to cross him at this moment.

　　Far away, perhaps two or three miles away, he sees a group of human girls. Dressed in mountain gear with backpacks on their back, completely oblivious to Blake's presence on top of that mountain hill. 

　　They laugh and talk among themselves.  He becomes startled as Tyler comes next to him standing by his side. 

　　"Blake! That smell? Where is it coming from?" Tyler's eyes darken, his mind clouded and intertwined with worriedness. 

　　Blake narrows his eyebrows and glances towards the girls. "Ty, are you? ... fuck!" Both men stare at each other and Tyler's face goes from a cheery Ty who everyone knows, to a melancholy and regretful stare.

　　"She's human!?" He stares into Blake's eyes and Blake can't help but hang his stare.

　　"Ty, this is your second chance! You can't be thinking of rejecting her. You know what that will do to you?" 

　　"She's human Blake! She could never adjust to this kind of life. Especially with all this going on! She can die out there if she gets caught in the midst of all this."

　　Tyler's breath becomes erratic. The pull of the mating bond compels him to run after her. But he fights it, a single tear runs down his cheek and he turns away from her. Placing his hands on his hips, he hangs his head and shuts his eyes.

　　A sudden shriek and the screaming of girls startle them. They both turn, realizing a few male figures are surrounding the girls. Both Tyler and Blake run as fast as their legs can take them. It takes them just a few seconds before they reach the girls.

　　Grasping the group of men who surround the four girls. One by one, the men are gripped by their shirts and thrown across the earthen ground. Inexplicably three of the girls hold each other tightly to protect each other. But the beautiful figure of a long black haired girl with gray eyes stands frozen in place. 

　　She views in measurement at how easily the two take on the group of men. She looks towards the right realizing one of the men holds a riffle and she runs, pulling the trigger upwards making the man miss his target from firing at Ty.

　　He's angered and throws the rifle to the ground, grasping the young girl by the throat. But soon is taken down and torn into Two by Tyler. Her eyes widen and her mouth gawked open as her face becomes blotched with droplets of the man dead on the ground. 

　　She takes a step back and gulps down hard. "I'm not going to hurt you. I promise!" Tyler holds a hand out as he tries to take one step closer to her. She looks towards the girls who are still embracing each other and towards Blake who stands by a man who he had to tragically tear apart as well.

　　She turns back towards Tyler and before knowing, she finds herself embracing him tightly. Her arms around his neck as she silently sobs.
