Alpha's Second Chance novel Chapter 249

ROSE

Noah stood up. And looked at the two proud Alphas, who were now on one knee knowing their heads. More Alphas stood from their chairs, bent down on their knees, and bowed.

“Stand up, all of you, please…”He orders and they all do as told.

“I have grown up knowing since I was eight years old, what I was supposed to become, a king. But not only a king, the king over every Alpha or any King in our world.” He says, standing there tall and proud.

“I have been taught to fight, to protect our people. But I have also had the most amazing people in my life to teach me to be a king. But also to teach me how to be a good person and think before I act. To not act rashly, something I have not always fully mastered yet.” He says, chuckling a little at the last part, and the ballroom rings with laughter. And he continues.

“Although I have not always had the best patience, and have sometimes acted rashly without thinking. But I never did it without a lesson from my parents afterward. And even though it did not always look like that, that's why I learned from it.” He says seriously.

“I won't lie, when I, last year, was held captive by one vindictive Alpha who wanted what could never be his. Who believed that he was the one that should rule the world. But also, at the same time he wanted to destroy an innocent man who had already given him what he had to give.” Noah tell them

“My transformation happened while I watched this man force my sister into giving birth. After that, he threatened to use the baby to his benefit. All this made my beast force our first shift in order to save them both. It also made the power of the true king explode, and I know our world felt it.” He continued.

“If anyone knows what this power feels like, I know it took me some time to calm my beast and power. I am deeply sorry for any pain I might have caused. And I promise I will be a good and fair king in the future. But I will also not tolerate unnecessary fights and hate, and if anyone can not live by this. I will have to do what is necessary to end it.” He says, and all listens.

“With these words, I will wish you all a good night and a peaceful future.” He finishes, and the room is quiet at first, but then applause and cheers sound in the entire room.

Then he stares out between the guests, and I hear him whisper, “Mate.” And I follow the direction he looks at, and my heart sinks. The girl he looks at is Romeo’s sister, who I know is the same age as Noah. She stayed here while Romeo was here before he rejected me. She bullied me and told me that I was not good enough for her brother.

I see her standing up and walking towards Noah; excitement is in her eyes, and Romeo follows her. She reaches Noah, who stands frozen, and I hear Dad growl lowly when Romeo gets closer.

“MATE.” She almost yells, getting on the podium and touching Noah’s arm.
