Anais put a protective hand on her belly and clenched her jaw. She was going to do whatever she needed to in order to take care of the pup and stay with it. She was scared to death and she wasn’t sure what to do now.She stayed in that same position for a long, long time. She was startled by the distant shadows when she came back to herself. The time had passed and now it was later than she normally started dinner. She quickly turned from the windows and rushed into the kitchen.She needed to work fast if she was going to have dinner on the table for the alpha when he got home. She lost herself in the rhythm of cooking and preparing food. It wasn’t until it was mostly done before she realized that she probably didn’t need to cook because the chances of Atlas being home on time that night were slim.Anais sighed and plated the food. She sat down at the bar and looked into the chicken and vegetables she had thrown together. It didn’t look appetizing at all and she ended up getting
“I asked you a question, Ana,” Atlas said. The anger was still there and Anais could hear the slightest command in his voice.She swallowed around the tightness of her throat and nodded. “You did, alpha,” She said.“So why are you planning on leaving and disobeying me?”Anais began to think clearly again, even in the face of her mate’s anger. She glared at Atlas as realization swept through her. She pushed away from the counter and moved to the other side of the kitchen where the envelope was. She took it back and thrust it into her alpha’s hands.“Because I got this today,” She said angrily. She could feel the tears pricking the backs of her eyes and the lump forming in her throat. “I knew you didn’t actually sign it because it was a typed note, but I didn’t realize that you didn’t even send it.”He watched as Atlas opened the envelope and read the note.I thought you might like a day to pamper yourself. Love, Atlas.She could scent the anger fade into understanding and whe
Accidentally Mated To Alpha Atlas .Chapter THIRTY.“Anais, Atlas took care of it. He told them that he didn’t want to hear anything else about his mate and they needed to be respectful of you because you are his mate. He stopped the meeting and told them they would reschedule and then he came back into his office. I’m not sure what else might have happened, but he’s not in a good mood.”Anais felt her mouth go dry as Charlie spoke. She tried to take a breath. “Thanks for letting me know. Do you know if he’s coming home soon?”“He’s been in his office for a while barking at everyone, so I’m not sure. I don’t know when he might leave tonight.”Anais nodded and licked her lips to try and work some moisture around. “Thanks for the heads up. I’ll see what I can do.”“Ana,” Charlie said. “You don’t need to do anything. I’m just giving you an idea of why he might be in a bad mood when he gets there. You know he’s not upset with you.”“Right. Okay, thanks, Charlie. I’m going t
Accidentally Mated To Alpha Atlas .Chapter THIRTY-ONE: .Atlas thought about his brother’s words all evening. He sighed and opened another email while Alfie navigated them through the city. It was after eight and it had been a long day. He realized he hadn’t texted Anais that he would be late and sighed. He hadn’t been able to shake the residual anger from the day and he just wanted to go home and have a drink in his quiet house. He stepped out of the elevator and into the dark apartment. He could hear the faint sounds of the television and he made his way into the living room.He stopped at the sight that greeted him. His omega was curled up, fast asleep on the couch. She had burrowed under the blanket and she looked so peaceful laying there that Atlas smiled. He made his way over to Anais and the omega stirred. Anais blinked up at him as he stopped in front of the couch. She looked young and innocent and Atlas wondered for the millionth time what he was doing.“You’re
Accidentally Mated To Alpha Atlas .Chapter THIRTY-TWO: .ANAIS POVAnais looked at herself in the mirror after her shower. She could tell that she was pregnant and if people looked closely they would be able to see the small swell of her belly below her navel but it wasn’t noticeable to most people. At four months pregnant she was starting to round out a bit.She hadn’t had to buy any new clothes yet but that was mostly because she had actually been losing weight instead of gaining it. She knew it wasn’t good for her, but she was eating as much as she could. She could see her collar bones more clearly and was able to count several ribs, but her belly was growing and the doctor had told her last month that she was still within a healthy weight. She turned to look at herself in every direction she could. She smiled softly in the mirror. She was beginning to feel like this pup was real. She pushed away the worry that constantly nagged at her and she focused on the happiness ins
Accidentally Mated To Alpha Atlas .Chapter THIRTY-THREE: .“Can you just eat the vegetables?”“Of course, alpha,” Anais whispered. She wasn’t at all sure she’d be able to sit here with the smell, let alone eat something off of the same plate, but she wouldn’t make a scene if Atlas wanted her to be quiet.“There now, dearie, not to worry,” a breathy voice said from the other side of Atlas. Anais and Atlas both looked over to see Racheal watching them. ““Those pups don’t care what’s on the plate, they’ll take their omegas for a turn any time.” She smiled sympathetically at Anais and he saw the kindness in her expression. She nodded and smiled slightly but Atlas still seemed unhappy with her. “I’m sure your mate will ask the staff to bring you a different plate.” She arched an eyebrow at Atlas.Anais stiffened a little at the omega’s assumption over Atlas but now that she had said it, there was nothing Atlas could do but to request a new plate for Anais.“Of course,” Atlas sai
Accidentally Mated To Alpha Atlas .Chapter THIRTY-FOUR: . “Are you alright?” Atlas asked her. Anais looked at her mate and took a breath in. There was no guilt or deceit in his scent and that relaxed her. “Yea, Alpha, I’m just tired and still not feeling well.”Atlas pulled her closer and pressed a kiss to her temple. “Let’s go home,” he said.Alfie met them at the entrance and Atlas helped her into the car. Atlas pulled her to the middle of the seat and let her rest her head on his shoulder as they rode through the city. Atlas had taken off his jacket and he smelled more like himself. Anais tucked her nose into the underside of his neck and took deep lungfuls of his rich alpha scent. She wrapped an arm around his middle and Atlas’ low rumble resonated through Anais’s ear.When they got to the apartment Jesse greeted them and Atlas shuffled them through the lobby and into the empty elevator. Anais suddenly didn’t feel so badly and Atlas clearly wasn’t tired. He backed A
Accidentally Mated To Alpha Atlas .Chapter THIRTY-FIVE: . Atlas seemed unable to get a hold on his frustration and anger that night. He needed to make some connections and Anais seemed bored. He only spoke when she was asked a direct question and Atlas was beginning to think that Anais had no interest in helping him at all. He was frustrated with himself that he had used Anais’s maiden name during the introductions and Crowley had noticed.Atlas was nearly pushed over the edge of his anger when Anais paled at the fish put in front of her. He wanted to roll his eyes at the drama. Racheal caught him out though so he asked for a new plate. Anais didn’t even eat half of it anyway. Atlas tried to ignore his omega while he discussed a few business things with Crowley. When the speeches were over and people started mingling he knew he needed to get up and move around. He stood and turned to Anais. He needed to focus on his business networking and he didn’t think that she wou
