Filed to story: Sorry Alpha I Am Wolfless Novel
This crazy ass woman told Riviana that she was not affected by the ice of the sword. She quite enjoyed it in fact. And not only that, but soon after making that declaration she started to glow and grow. Her entire body was changing in a way that I don’t think anyone expected at all.
Hekate ended up being more than twice as tall as she had started at. She was now about fifteen feet. Oh, and she was covered in black scales. The scales were because she had just become a giant three headed dragon.
“WHAT IN THE FUCKING HELL IS THAT?!” Noah screeched at the screen. “WHAT THE HELL! HOW IS RIVIANA SUPPOSED TO FIGHT THAT?”
“THAT’S A FUCKING DRAGON! A REAL LIFE FUCKING DRAGON! WHAT IN THE FUCKING HELL!” Trevor was just as shocked as Noah had been.
“I have only ever heard rumors about dragons. I didn’t think that they were real at all. This is unbelievable. Unbelievable and so not the right time for this. What is Riviana going to do?” Valerian was looking between the dragon on the screen and me. He was definitely at a loss for what to do.
“I don’t know. But I am not going to let this slide. I need to help her. I need to stop that dragon. I need to protect my mate.” I could feel the rage boiling within me. It was time for me to do something.
“We all need to do something.” Noah agreed, nodding.
“I concur.” Valerian rose to his feet.
“Hell yeah.” Trevor was in with me too.
I didn’t think twice about it then. I just took off running toward the screen, intent on moving to the other side. I needed to help my Little Bunny, my mate, my wife. I needed to help her fight this dragon. I just ran headlong into the screen, trying to get to her.
And I bounced right off, landing on my ass.
“OUCH!” I rubbed my head where it had hit the screen first. “That fucking hurt.”
“Better you than us, man.” Trevor laughed. “That was funny.”
“And it could have been you too, dumbass. You were running with me.” They all had been running, but I had been in the lead, so I was the one that had been hit by the barrier. “I can’t stand this. I need to help her. I need to help my Little Bunny.”
“Well, it looks like we’re stuck on this side. We’re not going to be able to make it across there. Just relax Joaquin, I am sure that Riviana can handle it.” Valerian tried to sound wise and full of his know it all attitude, but I could see that he was just as pissed off about not being able to get to the other side as I was. We all wanted to help my Little Bunny. We all wanted to fight that dragon with her. We all wanted to prove that we were able to protect her. And yet, here we were stuck on this side and out of the fight once again.
“DAMMIT!” I roared that one word into the room as loud as I could. “DAMMIT, LITTLE BUNNY! HURRY THIS UP AND COME HOME ALREADY!”
“I imagine that she will be home when she can be, Joaquin. There is no use shouting at nothing over it.” Valerian put his hand on my shoulder as he said those words. “Come on, calm down and let us watch the rest of the fight.”
“I don’t want to. I want to protect my wife. I want to prove that I am an Alpha, that I am her mate. I want to protect her. Dammit! Why can’t I protect her at all?”
“Don’t worry Joaquin, we would all be in that same boat. This is the role that you were meant to play in all of this. Let’s watch the fight now, Riviana isn’t going to wait for us.” Valerian was right.. I needed to at least watch it, that way I knew what she had been capable of this whole time.

“A FUCKING DRAGON!” I screamed the word at the now roading and screeching dragon that was standing before me. Hekate was now gone, in her place was the massive three-headed serpent-like dragon. What in the fucking hell was I supposed to do about this now?
Was this going to be turning into some fairy tale where I needed to fight this dragon? Yeah, I already knew that I needed to fight that damn thing, but that didn’t mean that I was happy about it, or that I was looking forward to it. Nope, not at all.
Right now, I could feel my heart pounding about twelve miles a minute. It was going way too fast for its own good. And I didn’t see it slowing down until this dragon was eliminated. There was just one major problem.
I didn’t know how to kill a dragon. Especially a dragon that was impervious to my sword’s ice magic. Well, the humanoid type of being that was the pre-dragon Hekate had been impervious to the ice that my sword used. I don’t know for certain if the dragon version of her was immune to it as well. I guess time would tell.
“RRWWAARRRGGGHHH!” That sound that came from the dragon Hekate sounded like a cross between a roar and cry of pain or frustration. It was not just a roar, that was for sure. What it really was, I didn’t know. But it was unsettling and nerve wracking.
“What do you want me to do now, Hekate? Do you think I am going to turn tail and run away? Do you think that I am going to let you win just because you turned into a big bad monster of a dragon? Well, that isn’t going to happen. That isn’t like me so you can just forget it!” I yelled loudly at the giant dragon lady, and I saw that she sneered at me. Her lips pulling back in anger as she had listened to what I had just said.
“You will do as I command you to.” The words were longer and drawn out as she hissed them at me from the center of her three heads.
“I will destroy you.” The left head hissed in a similar fashion.
“Prepare to die.” The right head added in its hissed voice.
I noticed that all three heads spoke with Hekate’s voice. It was all one voice, but it was different mouths on different heads that had spoken. That was the most surreal of it all. It literally sounded like nothing more than a speaker that was set up in multiple places and they were each playing their part of a recording at different times.
“I do not intend to die, Hekate. I will not let your scaley ass hurt me or my family.” I slid myself into another fighting crouch, preparing myself to take on the dragon woman.
“Are you sure that it’s scaley?” She hissed once again, drawing the words out to distort them so much that it was nearly impossible to understand them. But I got the gist of it this time. Especially when she turned to shake her giant dragon butt toward me. It was like she was telling me to kiss her ass or something. And that was not something that I was going to accept. I was not going to let this slide at all.
The moment that the dragon taunted me, I started to move. I ran to the side and started to come up beside the dragon. She wasn’t looking at me when I started to run so she had temporarily lost sight of me.
Unfortunately, but the time that I was about to attack the three headed monstrosity, the dragon had spun to look at me and two of the three heads lunged at me. I saw that one of them was preparing to breath ice at me while the other was already frothing with what looked like sea water in its mouth. It was going to send a jet of water at me while the other tried to freeze me.
I needed to avoid those attacks, not knowing what just touching them would do to me. So, I leapt into the air and backflipped a few times. I needed to make sure that I wasn’t hit by the thing’s blast at all. And now that I had avoided it, I was at least as far back as I had been, maybe even further. I hadn’t gained on the dragon at all. If anything, I lost ground on it.
“Dammit.” I snarled the word under my breath as I tried to think of what to do next. I needed to make sure that I kept an eye on all three heads at once. I needed to make sure that I knew what it was doing at all times, no matter where it might be attacking me from.
