worst. I've seen it first hand with
Alpha Rhys, that's why I am so afraid of big men. Especially,
Alphas.
    -Flashback-
    I was walking
home from school with my best friend Angela my sophomore year of
high school. We took a short cut deciding to take a run to the
local diner and getting a strawberry milkshake and fries.
Everything was fine, we even met up with a boy Angela liked and he
offered to walk us home. Knowing Angela wanted to be alone with
him, I told them to leave without me that I wanted to stop at the
library. After they left I went into the woods to run home. I felt
a presence behind me and turned to see Rodger Valiant. He was a
senior, the only reason I knew him was because he and Marta were
friends and he came over for dinner a lot. "Hey,
Rodger."
    He doesn't
respond he only looks at me. I notice he doesn't have a shirt on. I
eye his muscled chest and the flexing of his arms as he clenches
and unclenches his fists. "Who were you with?" He demands to
know.
    "Angela." I
answer, starting to feel uneasy.
    "And Jim
Resinger."
    "Yeah, Angela
likes him. Are you okay?" I ask, seeing that his arms are now
shaking.
    "He was sitting
next to you."
    "Yeah." I don't
know what to say to take away his anger. I don't understand why
he's even angry. "Did I do something wrong?"
    "Don't talk to
another male again." He orders. Then seconds later he's on top of
me. I can feel his breath on my neck. "You're mine." He states. I
feel his tongue on my neck and I start whimpering.
    "No! Stop!" I
scream at him clawing at his arms and back.
    "Get off of her
now!" I hear Alpha Rhys command. Rodger stops immediately,
complying with the Alpha command. Alpha Rhys stomps closer, I see
his wolf surfacing. He backhands Rodger sending him into a tree. He
follows after him picking him up and punching him repeatedly. I
hear the crunch of his face being smashed. I look on horrified as
Alpha Rhys continues his beating, snapping his arms and legs. At
one point, I throw up and Beta Burnett lifts me up, walking away
with me.
    I know without a
doubt Rodger is dead.
    -End of
flashback-
    "Jocelyn." I hear
in my ear.
    "Huh?
Yes?"
    "Why are you
shaking?"
    "I was
remembering something."
    "Tell
me."
    I swallow, my
throat feeling like sandpaper. "Alpha Rhys killed a boy who
attacked me. I was thinking about his temper." I reply
truthfully.
    "He won't touch
you. He won't even see you again."
    "I still have
family in that pack. What if he hurts them?"
    He looks away
from me and to my parents. "Your sister and other family members
are welcome to join the Blue Shore Pack. If they can get out of the
pack, they'll be protected here." He offers.
    "Thank you, Alpha
Hall."
    "You can go now."
Lennox says making it sound like an order. I watch as my parents
turn to leave.
    "Alpha, would you
like to come over for dinner tonight?" My mom asks before
leaving.
    "Yes. Thank you."
He replies. Smiling my mom walks after my father out of the
door.
    "Should I go with
them?"
    "Hell, no." He
growls and kisses me again. This kiss is more consuming, passionate
and demanding than the first. I'm shocked by his intensity. I can't
help but respond, my mouth is his. Until another knock on the door
interrupts us and he yells, "What?!"
    "I have- your
ric-e crispy tr-eats." A woman stammers.
    He leans his head
back and closes his eyes. I can't help but laugh. I think this is
the only time I've seen him not control his reaction. He opens his
eyes and looks at me. "This is not funny."
    I giggle harder.
"Sorry." I apologize smothering a smile. He grins back.
    "Come in." He
calls out. A woman comes in with a plate of rice crispy treats and
I see her hands shaking. I know exactly how she feels. I smile at
her but she has her head down. Placing them on the desk she waits
to be dismissed which Lennox eagerly does.
    "Would you like
to swim?" He asks handing me a rice crispy treat.
    "Okay, I'm sure
everyone is still at the falls."
    "Not the falls.
I'm not letting anyone see you in that."
    "My
