MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 13
NICOLETTE'S POV Clearly, it was all over. My marriage to Xander would clearly be over because seeing the lady before me and recalling how Xander had been staring at her when I came in, I believe he was taken away from this world into another full of regal beauties like Laurel. I realized in my short spacing out of space, I had somehow forgotten about her hand outstretched before me as her eyes twinkled. I quickly recollected myself as I took her hand in mine bringing up my best nervous smile. "I'm sorry. My name is Nicolette and my, you are so beautiful." I said to her. "Why, thank you. Xander never mentioned you were this adorable though." she said looking over at Xander, batting her long lashes. Wait a minute, what did she mean now that Xander had never mentioned that I was adorable. Was this her way of telling me that she has been talking to my husband all along and it did not just stem up suddenly. We had let go of each other's hands as I was forcing that smile
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 14
ALLEN'S POV Doomed!!! I certainly was done for. The entire situation was beginning to look staged and no matter how I look at it, I know Xander would not be taking things lightly with me when he hears everything. First; earlier that day, Maxwell had come to me for some deeds to a part of an open space we all owned mutually. I could tell he was by all means seeking for any way possible to quarrel with our pack but then it struck me as to why everything was happening suddenly at this time when Laurel was coming. Clearly something was missing and that would be something really important to the entire thing we were investigating already. I am one such person that does not believe in coincidences. Nothing happens out of the ordinary as I knew that no matter how distant things would seem, if we look closely we could see connections. Maxwell to me had never seemed to know who Laurel was because they had never been seen close to each other. Besides, during the time when L
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 15
XANDER'S POV It was gradually beginning to seem like a clear sign that the heavens wanted absolutely no peace for me with all they were doing right now. It was enough to deal with myself and all the responsibilities I had being a werewolf alpha. It never had been easy at all building us up to this point but I had basic laid out goals to dominate and be at the top of my game as I had a lot of investigating to do. When my mate had left, I had nearly lost myself and focused but found a way around them all. I had a personal motto which had been to surmount all pressure. But right now, everything is failing me. The moment Laurel arrived, I found that my wolf was still having inklings towards her as it showed all signs of excitement. But in the midst of all this excitement, something was really missing. Laurel sure as hell looked really beautiful. More beautiful than she had been when she left actually. She was what one would always refer to as a timeless beauty. The atmosphere
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 16
XANDER'S POV Everyone seems to be getting on my nerves recently. It was becoming quite a lot to bear but I had been at my best at keeping it in. However, this new development with Allen was not getting passed like water under the bridge. He had just one simple task to do as my beta but it would seem that he was beginning to grit my nerves. He was actually beginning to get wanting in my eyes as all he does now seemed like a jump from one suspicious move to another. The moment he had called me to inform me that the prisoner had escaped, I was practically vexed. I had been hoping for a distraction from Nicolette's questions but now I wish this was not the case. Hurriedly, I had taken my car as I was in no mood for a wolfie run tonight. I drove straight to our secret house which housed our dungeons. The moment I got there, I could see him standing out there looking worried. I had strong reasons to believe that he was just putting up the pathetic act to get enough pity from me.
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 17
NICOLETTE'S POV I had gone to bed the previous night quite upset and of course skeptical about my future. I could barely get a decent amount of sleep but somehow I knew that Laurel would be having a great time sleeping. With Xander suddenly leaving and my question about how long she would be staying with us unanswered, I had cause to be alarmed. Somehow, I knew he was not going to answer that question, call or no call. I could tell it from his eyes and how he had stared back at me when I spoke to him about it. It was sometime early this morning that I had actually woken up to an insistent knocking on my door. When I asked who it was, the maid responded that Xander was asking me to come down for breakfast. Breakfast? I quickly looked at my clock and was alarmed at what time it was already. Quickly I got up from the bed and rushed into the bathroom to tidy up. My reflection in the mirror was nothing to write home about as it would seem even the heavens were playing tricks on me
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 18
NICOLETTE'S POV "Girl, are you stupid or something?" Zibs was telling me the moment I told her what the situation was over the phone. Perhaps you would think of me as a loser and a sorry ass loser at that but then what could I say, it was unbearable. I could not sit one exact minute with that wench and keep avoiding hitting her. She just had it in her to make one really pissed. When I had gotten to my room, the first thing I did was to free my hair from the bun I had done that morning which, if you must know, still hurts from how I held the center part and then I pulled off the ridiculous gown which she had beaten me to. In frustration, I threw the gown on the floor and found myself stomping on it. It was while stomping on it that it crossed my mind to call Zibelle. Perhaps, speaking to her would do me some great amount of good. Luckily for me, she did pick up and I told her what had happened. I explained everything from the scratch and then you could have guessed
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 19
LAUREL'S POV If triumph was a person, well that would be me actually. The moment I had walked in for breakfast that morning, I could tell the effect I had on all my audience. Actually, I had woken up a lot earlier and gotten ready but I needed to make the grand entry so I would have all eyes on me. Sincerely, I had no idea I would be having all eyes and soul on me but come on, that was part of my goals. I heard Nicolette's voice and I knew it was my cue to come inside. The way she had glared at me and how I had dressed made it obvious that I was winning but even more was the fact that Xander was flustered. The poor guy was being tortured and he could say nothing of it. I resisted the further urge to stop by and kiss him on the cheek. Time would definitely come for that soon enough. But for now, let's play the hot second fiddle. I sat down for breakfast directly opposite her and I could feel her pain. The poor darling, she certainly had spent some time working on her look that
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 20
NICOLETTE'S POV I had no idea that so much time had passed already and it was nearly lunch time. I panicked as I thought that my actions might begin to seem to Xander like I was slacking off my duties. Not like he had forced me to keep up with my duties but to think of it now, I already proclaimed that I would be making lunch. I looked into the mirror and stared back at the nightmare I had made of myself before deciding that I would freshen up a little before I go outside and accustom my new found nemesis. I took a little while brushing my hair but so as not to seem like a copycat, I had pulled it back behind me and held it in place with a ribbon. Sincerely, I was tempted to dress similar to her now that it seems like my husband prefers that sort of dressing but the reminder that ours was a marriage of convenience screamed through my mind. I had questions now for myself and for Xander which I knew I would never ask a soul. I needed to know if there was any possibility th

XANDER'S POV I could not believe I had missed all of that in my rush. To think that Zibelle had been so aloof should have told me all I needed to know about what was actually happening. We arrived at the place she was hosting her show and then found the luxury cars that were scattered around outside the premises. It was clear the attendees were no persons of ordinary caliber. I turned to my men coming down from their car behind mine. "Smoke the area to make certain there are no other wolves. If she has taken Nicolette, then she's not in this alone." I said to them, "What about me, Alpha?" The werewolf who had driven me to the place turned to ask. "You're coming with me as backup. Where's the gamma?" I asked, noticing Adriana was nowhere to be found. "None can tell, Alpha. She's been missing since the proclamation of Allen's banishment." He said. I nodded my head knowingly. That could be understood knowing how much she actually cared about Allen. She probably was out there weepin

XANDER'S POV"Don't do this, Xander. You know I'm innocent." Allen said to me as he stood before me in the dark woods.I had already declared him a criminal and he was to be banished. The more I looked at him now, all I could think of was the fact that he had probably won Nicolette's heart."Tell me then, where is she?" I asked him."Buddy, I swear this to you. I have no idea where she is but together I know we can find her." He said to me,My face grimaced. He still had the nerve to lie to me after all this while. What was so hard about the truth."I actually thought you were my friend but apparently, you're a cheap liar. These are the borders, go and don't return." I said to him avoiding his eyes."Xander, please." He said to me,His voice was shaky and I knew he was probably crying at this point. "The next time I lay eyes on you,.it shall be your death. I'll give you the grace and time to get these fixed. Return my wife to me or I shall hunt you for the rest of your miserable life
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 115
NICOLETTE'S POVI could not go the way out as there was no telling how many men had been left out there to tame me. The only way I could think of was the high scaled window and what I needed now was a really big leap. One mistake and I would certainly be caught again. I thought of the baby, breathing within me and all I had endured all along. Nothing would have to go wrong, right? No way was I going to lose my child for my friend that so easily had backstabbed me.I looked right at the concoction that had been given to me. Who's to say it is not actually poison?Either way, I took a deep breath right now as I made the biggest leap yet of my life. It was a lot for me to take in as I jumped really high until I hit myself against the window pane. It suddenly burnt and I nearly let go and lost control as I had not been prepared to find that it was made out of pure silver. My feet had lost their footing and it took me a while to balance up. I started to climb over the window, burns and a
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 114
NICOLETTE'S POVI was locked in this room in the cabin. The cabin was divided into two parts and I could not help but notice how it was being built to have just a single entrance. My prison room had a window that seemed really high for me but I knew I needed to figure out a way to escape.As commanded, Maxwell's men did not attempt to lay hands on me for now because there was actually no telling what would become of me when the evil duo decided to come for me. They were working together crying out loud!Who knows right now what Zibelle has been up to acting selling me out cheaply. It was a little wonder as to what Laurel must have promised her and right now, I was beginning to question our entire friendship that seemed to be based on a lie.Was there a possibility that all these years together had meant nothing or had she been spying on me from the very beginning? I was confused at this point that I could not even begin to think about it. I sat down there, recounting and wondering if
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 113
MAXWELL'S POVSeeing Nicolette after all this while was really something and I suddenly felt this tinge of elation towards her. She seemed not so happy to see me and I could have sworn that there was fear in her eyes when she looked at me. Was she by any chance thinking that I would hurt her or something? I would never...I guessed I spoke too soon as suddenly I heard it. The faint beating of that steady heart that he had implanted in her womb. It made me feel a surge of anger swim through me as I watched her steadily."You're indeed pregnant." I said to her,"Let me go." She said to me,"Go? You're free to go, Nicolette. That's the way." I said pointing out where she had just come from.She looked rather confused as she stared back at me. It would come to seem as though I have begun playing games on her.A couple of seconds and she turned back to find that there was no one on her path. Not even Laurel stood there as they all cleared a way for her in the middle.Nicolette was skeptica
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 112
XANDER'S POVI suddenly felt restless after I had left the witch who apparently had been shot. She probably died on the way but something seemed to be bugging as suddenly, I felt a heart wrenching pain on my chest."Nicolette..." My wolf cried out weakly. "Trouble."I had to hastily return to my car and start the ignition immediately. Whatever this was, I would be needing to get to the root of it immediately. I tried to start the car again but the damned pain returned again, this time more searing and I knew she was in trouble.I quickly decided to dial Allen. He had probably gotten to her or something. The guy took the phone immediately on the second ring and then I asked if he had seen Nicolette today."Not really but I received a call from the pack house security. She's gone missing and is not taking her calls." He said to me,"Why didn't you call me immediately?" I yelled at him, putting the car in motion."Because they said you would react badly. We were hoping to find her before
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 111
NICOLETTE'S POVI could not believe that this was happening as I tried to take a quick glance at Zibelle who apparently averted her eyes. She was clearly not going to look at me after her sore betrayal.Laurel walked over to me and right then I saw some persons with torches go over to the entrance and block it off with the caution sign. That way, no vehicle would pass this way again."How could you do this to me?" I asked Zibelle who kept looking away as she came off from the vehicle."Oh, so sad but you should know that Zibelle and I have always been best buddies right from our school days. We love and care about each other. Hence, it should not come as a surprise that you have been sold out." Laurel said as she opened my side of the car. "Out."I hesitated but reckoned that she would deal with me even as I noticed eyes glowing in the dark. There were other werewolves here but certainly, not from our pack. They reeked and I knew being pregnant and outnumbered was not the time to fig

ZIBELLE'S POV"Just act naturally and lead her to us. We'll take it from there." Those were her words on the phone when she called me on this day that the plan had been set up.It was only a couple of days to Nicolette's birthday party which we all could tell now that in anticipation, Xander was making bigger plans. I have been keeping up tabs with her and playing the caring friend and anticipating godmother to Nicolette.I had a thing tomorrow also. My fashion show and hopefully, should things go as planned today then I would be a free woman and minding both my business and my show.Clearly, I had been lacking good sleep as all my thoughts were filled with the fear of being found out or betrayed by Laurel who had always been known to be up to no good.I got out of bed sluggishly dressing up and eventually got prepared. I decided that I would call Nicolette just so we could do some shopping."Zibs, what's up?" An excited Nicolette said to me over the phone.The happiness and innocenc
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 109
DELA'S POVI found out.To think that I had been smart and careful all along only to let down my guard upon my very first encounter with Xander was really something. It had been years since I stayed in the background, secretly watching Nicolette and seeking the best ways possible to get closer.We had separated at some point when I felt she would be able to stand on her own two feet as I went into seclusion which was a thing with us witches. It used to be the best time when we could gather up the potency of our powers and also return stronger.Mine had taken me years as my times out of practice when playing nanny to the child had been something else. I reckoned how young she had been when I fled away from her with a promise that I would always be watching her. It had been long years in the dark cave where I lost track of time.I returned to find my dear child as that was what I saw her as, married to someone dangerous. Xander was never supposed to happen and the more I dug into his fa
