Broken Alpha Paulina Vasquez (free novel reading sites .TXT) 📖

back. I couldn’t wait until this was over to spend time tangled up with him.

“Please be careful.” I whispered as we broke away.

“I'll be back as soon as this is over.” He said and closed the door to the nest.

I was standing inside of a closet sized metal box, that was perched on top of the roof of the pack house and looked out over the pack lands. The fire pits were burning bright, if someone didn't know any better, they would just assume the fire pits were there to light up the grounds for battle.

“Let's test the reach of our element.” Rae suggested.

“Good idea.” I wasn't sure how well my reach would be from this far.

I focused on one of the fires and its dancing flames. I closed my eyes and tapped into my own energy, feeling my own emotions flow through me. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest, as I took a deep breath. I opened my eyes and willed the fire to rise, it moved a few feet higher into the air. I concentrated harder and it flared up ten feet more towards the sky.

“Are you doing that?” Dimitri mind linked me.

“Yes, just getting a feel for my reach.” I linked back.

“Try the water too.” He told me.

I willed the swimming pool water to rise and fall. “I can reach. I don't want to blast open a fire hydrant yet, it’ll cause a muddy mess before they get here.”

“Some of our fighters got spooked, I guess I forgot to tell them their Luna has two elements. Niko just told them about your elements and that you're in the bird’s nest helping to protect them. They’re excited and very proud to have you as our Luna." Dimitri told me.

“Where are the pups and vulnerable pack members?” I asked.

“Our safe room is under the pack house, everyone who needs to be in there is safe.”

Dimitri stood in the middle of the field in human form surrounded by our warriors. Niko and Alec stood in wolf form next to him as his second and third. Spiro is a sharpshooter and was positioned in the window of the attic. He had two other shooters with him and silver bullets of their own to neutralize shooters from Stefanos's side.

I stared down at the open field and saw Hades, Odessa, Clair, Knox and Rocky standing behind Dimitri in wolf form. Knox had insisted on fighting to help protect his sisters pack and Rocky wanted revenge for Leo. I felt an uneasy tension in the air, and I knew Stefanos was close.

A row of red eyes emerged from the tree line and growls filled the air from both sides. Niko let out a loud howl and the rogues charged forward. Dimitri stomped the ground and a huge trench opened up beneath a dozen rogues. I looked to the fire and willed it to fill the trench. “YES!” I called out as painful howls filled the air and burning wolves tried jumping out.

“Nice!” Rae said to me.

Dimitri sent a cloud of sand towards the other rogues running in our direction as our fighters clashed with them. More red eyed rogues came charging out from the far end of the tree line and I sent balls of fire at them. I hit four of them and their mangy fur caught fire. Another group of rogues charged from the opposite end and Dimitri brought a tree crashing down on a few of them.

Our warriors and the rogues continued fighting. The rogues were vicious but didn't really stand a chance against our trained fighters. I realized the first attack of rogues was a distraction when I heard the popping sound of bullets coming in our direction.

“They have shooters in the trees.” I linked Dimitri.

“Spiro can't see them, can you send some flames to the trees, so they move or try to climb down?” He asked.

“Coming right up!”

I looked closely and spotted a tree with a shooter, I sent a ring of fire around the tree and willed it to start climbing up the bark. I heard a popping sound and the shooter in the tree fell. Spiro had hit the shooter. I did the same to a second and third tree and Spiro picked them off. Another shooter jumped down and tried to run, I aimed a ball of fire at him and hit him.

I looked down and saw half a dozen wolves struggling with water bubbles around their heads. Knox had pulled water out of the swimming pool and was drowning six rogues at once. How did he learn to do that? I had only learned to hold one water bubble at a time. I was going to have to give my dad a piece of my mind when this was over.

“Focus on trying multiple water bubbles at once. I have faith in us.” Rae told me.

I was so frustrated the water burst out of the fire hydrant with little effort and I could feel the power of the water pulsing through the air. I looked at several rogues and imagined the water bubbles engulfing their heads. The water did as I wanted. All four of them thrashed around trying to knock the water bubble away. I focused my energy into holding the bubbles in place and two of the rogues shifted back and dropped to the ground. The other two struggled for a moment longer before they fell lifeless on the ground. I dropped the water and felt a little weaker myself.

“Using this much elemental power is draining.” I told Rae.

There was still, over three hundred rogues fighting with our wolves. I heard another popping sound and spotted a
