He called me 'Mate'! Chapter 13
MATEO'S POV Today has been a clusterfuck since the morning. I can't tell if the bad luck is on my side. First, my mate went missing after only meeting her for the first time, and now the woman who can provide me with the information I require is ill. Maybe she will be at the mortuary now. God knows the hell that would have happened if I hadn't come a bit earlier. I'm too stressed to think, and I'm hungry as fvck.I went into a nearby hotel to get a good meal—Savante Hotel was there. head swiveled and watched as I walked in, but I didn't care. I order polenta and cured meat and dig in once my order arrives. It tastes delicious, but still, I feel empty inside. I pay for my meal, then take my jacket and car keys and leave the hotel. My phone buzzes, and the caller ID shows it is Caleb, my assistant. I clicked the blue button and placed the phone on my ear. "I got all the girls from the night party, boss."Caleb's voice sounds more scared than real. I know something is amiss even thou

KIARA'S POV. The day dawned crisp and clear. The sun poured through my window. Another day had dawned, bringing with it new hopes and aspirations. The light of dawn seeped into my room. I rubbed my bleary eyes and walked to the window. There was a pearly glow in the sky. The first rays of sunlight lit up my room. The dawn chorus of melodic birdsong drifted in. The rising sun cast a rosy hue across the morning sky. Golden fingers of sunlight lit up the scene. The just-risen sun shone softly on the city streets, bringing with it a flurry of early-morning activity. I stretched my body and made my way to the shower. I didn't know when I came to my bed yesterday. I almost thought I slept on the floor with my head on the table. After having my bath, I put on my blue gown, the last gift from grandma. She said it would always be my luck, and today I need all the luck I can gather. I feel guilty for falling asleep even when Mila is missing. The perfect footwear that would suit the style

KIARA'S POV. I have been sitting, hiding under a blanket, and anxiously eating one bar of chocolate after another while watching a high school romance series on N*****x for the past two hours. The working class has long gone to work, but I took a leave from work. to attend to myself. I had pretended to be sick and taken a leave of absence from work for my own safety.I have a feeling that those men would come again looking for me, and this time they might really get me. But why would they be looking for me? While chewing on my nails, I ponder but receive no response.I am still engrossed in my thoughts when I hear a firm knock at the door. “OMG! Oh my god! This is bad! This is bad! Very bad!“ I chant while moving up and down in my room. I wasn't expecting anyone. I literally know no one here except Mila, but she would be working at this time. Or is it Jim? At first, I wanted to pretend I did not hear the knock, but it persisted. I stand on shaky legs as I approach the front door. At

KIARA'S POV The black SUV moved to the end of the street and then turned to head away from town. Still, I stared out of the window. watching the blur of the green leaves whiz past me until I no longer recognize my surroundings. I took a deep, shaky breath and turned to see a dark eye fixed on me. “Whoa!“ I exclaimed. My entire body is covered in goosebumps as a result of my fear.I shifted uncomfortably to the end of the seat, feeling the coldness of his gaze. “What?“ he finally snapped at me. His expression remained frozen as he replied. His gaze was still fixed on me. I scoff slightly, my gaze lowered so I couldn't see him. “What do you want from me?" "Who the hell are you?” I hold the man's collar tight and question. Kiara has no idea where that particular courage came from. “You are brave too." "Nice, just the qualities needed from you," he says as my hands helplessly slide down his chest.I am in a big mess right now, all thanks to Mila, who wanted to help me get a rich billi

Kiara's pov I scrambled out of the car as soon as it rolled to a stop, desperate to put distance between me and the man standing beside me in the car. Being confined in such a small place was suffocating and had my heart pounding so hard. I dressed my glasses so that they fit perfectly.I wished I could untie my hair because I definitely look like that nerdy girl who could be easily intimidated. The house even looked more intimidating when I stood before it, and every wall was lined with armed guards with guns tucked into their belts. I looked back to see the big black gate that had sealed me inside. They were impenetrable, standing at least twenty feet tall. The cold wind howled through the iron, rattling it.As the atmosphere became more pervasive, I shivered. “Let's go in,” the man growled in my ear, his hands curling around my shoulder as he pushed me a little. He tugged me towards the entrance. Striding quickly, I struggled to keep up. I attempted a few times to free myself from

KIARA'S POV “I have to report to work this evening, and I need my work clothes." I dragged my eyes back to focus on his instead. He shook his head and then leaned on the door. “ No. You won't work in the meantime. Let's say you are on your holidays, right? “Excuse me?“ My eyes widened as I felt the nails dig deep into the soft duvet on the bed. “You aren't working anymore, okay, so you can relax,” he repeated, his eyes narrowing in veiled amusement as he looked up and down at me. “Why the hell not?“ I snapped, getting more annoyed. "This isn't your father's house because you're here as a fucking prisoner; can't you get it already?"All those men stood there to guide you and make sure you didn't act silly. "There's no work for you anymore, little pretty girl; you won't even get to see your friends or family unless you do exactly as you're told," he scoffed, smirking. “That's not fair!" What the hell do you want me to do? "I will do it and leave this place.” My voice trembled as I

KIARA'S POV I spent the night tossing and turning, unable to take my mind off everything that had changed drastically. I couldn't help but wonder what the future held for me.What will they do with me? If the man asks me to marry him or date him, will I be able to say no, or will my timid self accept everything in a hurry? This worried me a lot, and I had to memorize how to reject him in my mind. When the sun finally rose the next morning, I had eyebags under my eyes. I propped myself up on one elbow. I let out a sigh as I tried to open my eyes fully, feeling the fatigue of a restless night's sleep. I sat up and rubbed my eyes, hoping to lessen the puffiness. I could feel the tightness of my skin, a sure sign that I had spent the night tossing and turning. I dragged myself out of bed and stumbled to the bathroom, hoping a splash of cold water on my face would help wake me up. As I looked in the mirror, I couldn't help but groan at the sight of my tired, puffy eyes staring back at me

Two weeks later KIARA'S POV I stir the stew mindlessly, too lost in my thoughts to actually get any work done. I feel someone poke me in the side of my ribs and I look up annoyed to find Casmir staring at me in an eye to eye smile. "What's on your mind little chef?" He asks flopping himself round the table in front of me with his ridiculous smile still on his face. "Cooking" I said hoping that he'd believe that and let me be. Casmir is just one hell of a chef, he nags and makes it tougher for me in here. I remember him saying that I took everything from him once I got to the hotel as a chef. "You actually think I'd believe that? You have been doing this Same thing for more than thirty minutes now. I know you better than you know yourself chef.." Casmir said sassily. I smile and add the next ingredient- a vegetable to the stew. I see as the other cooks glimpse at us. I have once heard them rumour that we are secretly dating but pretends to be real time enemies. But things li

A YEAR LATER."Luna Kiara," I heard my name being called. It had to take me a while, as usual, to realize that I was the one being referred to. I stood up to answer my husband, Alpha Mateo."Where are the boys, my laun?" He asked with a very worried face. "Dan has gone to school, and Rhett is busy sleeping in the house." I explained.He nodded and went in to confirm that Rhett was still there. "I'd call Dan's teacher to make sure that he is in school." "You know children of these days," Mateo said with a faint smile."You should also worry about your people this way, my Alpha." Dan is okay, as is Rhett. "Grandma wants them," "Yes," Mateo nodded. It's funny how he believes that anytime his mother seeks out her grandchildren, they might not be entirely safe. Soon enough, Dan returned from school and met his father and me at the palace entrance. With my wide arms opened to hug him, he ran to wrap himself around his father. A sting of jealousy struck me. I raised him, but he seems to

MATEO'S POVI woke up to the sound of my alarm blaring, jolting me out of a deep sleep. I rubbed my eyes and looked at the clock, realizing I had overslept by 20 minutes. I jumped out of bed and rushed to the bathroom, quickly brushing my teeth and washing my face. I barely had time to splash some water on my face to wake myself up.I ran to my closet, grabbing the first outfit I saw and quickly getting dressed. I rushed to the kitchen to make a quick cup of coffee, but the coffee machine was on the fritz. Frustrated, I chugged a glass of water and grabbed a piece of toast on my way out the door. I slept well in my old house. Very fancy, but clearly I knew it was for me. I thought about what Jim's father said. If any of my men get to see me, I might have to spend the rest of my life in prison. I sprinted to my car, praying it would start on the first try. Luckily, it did, and I was on my way to work. It doesn't really work, but I guess that's what people call it. I have to get my vis

Mateo's povThe day of the hit had finally arrived. I was dressed in all black, my face concealed by a mask. I was ready to carry out my plan to take down Jim's father once and for all.I made my way to the building where he was holed up. My heart was so willing and confident. I was nervous, but I was also determined. I was a mafia man, and I wouldn't be defeated.I entered the building quietly, my footsteps muffled by the thick carpet. I was moving stealthily, like a predator hunting its prey. I was going to take him by surprise, and he wouldn't know what hit him.I crept down the hall, my hand on my weapon, ready to use it if I needed to. I was getting closer; I could feel it. I was almost there.And then I heard a noise. It was the sound of footsteps coming from around the corner. I froze.. Had I been discovered? Was my plan about to be foiled?

MATEO'S POV"I do not appreciate it when people eavesdrop on my conversation." Miss. I hope you are ready to face the consequences if you ever disclose anything you heard to anyone. " I warned a lady whom I noticed has been unconsciously spying on me.Her face flushed with fear as she looked at me like she would break down. Her pupils burst out in fear. She was so terrified."I ...d..idn't hear anything." She stuttered carelessly. Does she really think she could lie to me? Even a fool would know that she was listening.I looked closely to observe her face, but my eyes mistakenly caught her cleavage. Gross!. She wasn't even dressed. She was putting on a very short crop top that revealed her cleavages and a short skirt that shows her straight legs. "Get lost." I said anoyingly. She was ready to scamper for safety, but I stopped her. "I know your face; if you were a snitch, I'd find you and kill you," I warned with a mean face. She ran off as fast as she could. I am so annoyed that I co

Kiara's povI worried the entire time during the ride home. Daniel kept quiet. His gaze was all on the road and me. I desperately wanted to break that icy silence, but what the hell was I going to say? Huh?. The only sound that awakens me is the honking of the cars. "Thank you so much, Daniel," I finally said, looking at him but avoiding eye contact. "For what?" He asked, still focused on the road. He didn't even spare me a glance. "For ehm everything, thank you so much." I don't know what I would have done without your help. "I stuttered helplessly with my finger clenched rightly to my cloth and my other arm holding Dan so tightly."You're welcome," he replied with a wide smile, which faded almost immediately. "About earlier....""Oh, just forget about that already." "I mean, you are now relaxed," he interrupted. as if he read my thoughts and knew exactly what I wanted to say. "Are you in?" In anyway... Uhm mad at me? " I stuttered and immediately made up my mind not to ask any
