I Will Escape novel Chapter 121

Waiting for Damien's decision is driving me crazy. I need an answer. I don't have any time to waste. It should please him that I offered the title to him. Instead, he's checking to make sure it's ok with his mate. I tried to hide my irritation, but Dominic doesn't fall for it, he could tell that something is wrong.

“Sabrina, I know my brother can be hard-headed sometimes, but please just give him time to get used to the idea of being your Beta. It's a big responsibility.”

“Dominic time isn't something we have, he needs to get it together. My sister isn't to make his choices he is.”

“Sabrina he probably just wants to give her a heads-up, so it's not a surprise to her.”

I want him to understand where I'm coming from, why I am angry, but he just seems. Like he just wants to keep the peace, just trying to make everyone happy. He needs to understand that you can't always please everyone. We need to do what is right for our pack. The bedroom door opens to my surprise it is Damien.

“Sabrina I'm so sorry that I was so rude earlier I should have accepted your offer right from the start. There wasn't any reason for me to act the way I did. If you will still have me, I would love to be your Beta.”

“Damien I know all this is new, and it's going to take some getting used to. I know it is for me anyhow. I also know that I am glad that you came to your senses, you're going to be a great Beta.”

“Thank you, Sabrina, I know that we have not always agreed on everything, but I know that you are going to be a great leader.”

As nervous as I am, I know that he's right. I know what needs to be done, what is right and what is wrong. The power seeks through me like I meant to know every decision, every desire of my pack. Not sure how to explain it, but it's there. As nervous as I am to disappoint my pack, I know that I am their best chance of survival. All packs need a leader to make them thrive.

“Thank you, Damien, we are going to announce everything tonight so make sure you look presentable Tonya as well.”

“Yes my Alpha” he responds and walks out the door.

Dominic walks over to me “Sabrina I have some things to take care of. I need to go for now, but I will be back later.”

“Ok I'll see you soon my love.”

I know that it is time to start leading my pack. I need to start learning the rules of being an alpha, I know that my father could help me with this. It almost feels like it comes natural when a question arises, it's like I already know the answer. It's confusing to me, I want to figure out how do I already know the answer when the question hasn't even been asked. Only been thought of. I know that it's probably all instinct, but I want to know how to control it.

I get up knowing I'm tired of resting. It is time to leave this bedroom. I go to look in my closet to see if there is anything to wear, I put on some blank leggings and a t-shirt. Knowing I'm not trying to win a beauty contest. Just wanting to look presentable, but also still being comfortable. As a look into the mirror it's like I am a different person. I am stronger now than what I ever was knowing that this is what I am supposed to.

I don't ask for permission to leave my room because I don't need it, I am the alpha. I step out of my bedroom, knowing it's time to make myself noticeable. As I walk out the bedroom  I notice people in the house not knowing their names. People I have never seen before but knowing I am their leader. I don't feel afraid of anything, I feel strong and empowered.

As they stop to look at me, I smile knowing that I am ready to be the leader they need. There is no more doubt running through my veins. Knowing I am the strongest in the room. Knowing I can defeat any of my pack members in this room. Only if I had no other choice. I don't want to be the alpha that punishes their pack. I want to be the alpha that embraces them to be the best that they can be.

  I decided to break the silence. “Good afternoon, I am not sure of your names, but I appreciate all that you have done.”

“Oh my god wow it's really you the alpha we are the mates of the warriors there wives basically we help prepare the food and everything for everybody my name is Tiffany this is Sandra and Emily.”

“Thank you for everything you do, but I'm hoping to also find time to train to be able to defend yourselves.”

They look at me confused, I am shocked that these women have no experience in fighting. We are in a war, and they are easily targeted to be captured. They should at least know how to defend themselves to prevent themselves from being captured.
