MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 25
LAUREL'S POVCertainly, you did not think I was going to let it rest now, do you?We had sat down to lunch and trust me, it was really great hearing the compliments from Xander's. I just hoped he truly meant them because I was so proud of myself. You know that exalted feeling you get when you did not stress about something and instead had someone else do your dirty job, only for all the praise to be directed to you, well that was just about it for me. I felt on top of the world as we ate. The maids sure as hell had done a really great job with it.I had decided not to freshen up and sat for lunch directly from the kitchen. I would rather it does not seem like I was making a sport or competing with Nicolette. That would certainly be too cheesy a thing to be accused of. She was in no way close to me by every standard, not even in the wicked competition I was cooking up. I was the leader and the head of it all and certainly, the sooner she gets to understand and appreciate that fact, the

ETHAN'S POVI smiled to myself when I ended the call with Laurel. Clever girl she believed she was actually. She thought she had it all figured out with her plans but then, I was way ahead of her in this game to understand what sort of a woman she was. All Laurel wanted was a name for herself and sincerely speaking, there was no way I could give her what she craved for. She was worse than a gold digger. I loved to refer to her kind of person as a leech. All these years, I had condoned her excesses and would provide all she wanted. Whenever I realized she was getting clingy towards me, I had tendencies to go away from her.I am a businessman. So you do not think I was letting myself be used because I wanted to play a game with a woman. That was totally out of option because I would never let anyone around me that had nothing much to contribute to me. I did not harbor Laurel all these years because I loved her or perhaps cared one inch about her emotions. That was totally out of it. The

XANDER'S POVI was already beginning to lose it all. Her scent was everywhere and it was beginning to look like she was the only thing I could perceive. I simply could not resist.Perhaps, it was now I had begun understanding what they do mean when they spoke of the strength of the womenfolk. It was not all about brute force but instead about how to turn brute force into a controllable one. Who could have thought that simply by the presence of a woman, I would lose my self control.Laurel was obviously enjoying herself and the things she was doing to me. Was she having fun tempting me the way she was or something? I continued wondering the moment she had come closer. This game of hers was definitely not helping me in any way. She was practically killing me and luring me into her trap of high risk intimacy. My wolf was seemingly and amply excited by her presence that I could almost hear him prancing about happily. All I wanted now was to reach over and show her just what a man I could

NICOLETTE'S POVYou might as well begin to change my name to pain as I had become pain itself with her presence around. I seriously could not bear it anymore, the fact that she was staying with us was truly something I would not be getting over anytime soon. I had never felt so much rage against anyone in my entire life and now I understood what was meant when they said that jealousy was really dangerous to both the person and the one being thought of. All I could begin to think about henceforth was about Xander and her. I had strong reasons to believe that whatever chances Xander was giving to me had been destroyed by my reaction towards him when he held my hand. I needed no soothsayer to tell me otherwise because during the last meal we had with her and that had been lunch, Xander would not even look at me. He barely was talking even and it hurt really bad.I had sworn that I would not be having dinner that night as I decided to retire rather early. Even when the maids had been sent

XANDER'S POVI had not been able to sleep through the night as a whole lot of things were gnawing at my thoughts and trust me, the lady drama currently going on at the pack house was the least of my worries. I knew well enough that things were actually beginning to take the wrong turn in my pack and some enemies were passing the boundaries and getting onto our side to commit crimes. My Beta had not been really up and doing for some time now and it was all on my shoulders now to take charge of the situation and make certain that things return back to normal.I had not shown up for dinner but had come out and sure as hell met Laurel sitting down to dinner. Recalling what she had done with the bodyguard, I felt disgusted and angry. She had kissed another man right in front of me and that hurt more than her leaving me those years. It felt like a double edged sword searing through my heart and it was little wonder that I had not turned on the guy because it should have been the resultant e

ALLEN'S POV I had been with Xander long enough to understand that no matter what he says or claims even, he was not one to let sleeping dogs lie. I had been having a really tough time finding a way around the entire situation as we sure as hell were threatened. Whoever was doing this obviously had someone within us that was working with him and giving him feedback. Clearly, there was a spy and I could bet my life on it that Xander believes that I am the one. I knew already that he might be really roughened up by the presence of Laurel who if you ask me, I believe is not so far fetched from everything that was happening. The pack had been quite peaceful until she decided to show up after all this while. Even Maxwell himself, who was beginning to throw shades, had not even made a single derogatory comment against Xander for marrying Nicolette. How then would it be possible that the sooner she returns to the pack house, the sooner everything starts going haywires. I knew what it entails

XANDER'S POV "You're wasting your time, Alpha, you would not be getting a single word from me." Those were the words of the captured werewolf the moment I came inside. I could have sworn that it was beginning to seem like he had his morale built up at its highest level. The way he looked at me with the side eyes each time I paced around told me already that he probably was scared but still had his loyalty to keep him steady with his decision. After the morning confrontation with Nicolette, I had gone inside to get ready for this. I had a really quick shower and went around to the garage. I could not have myself getting caught up in the usual morning traffic, so I decided that I would be riding on my motorbike today. It had been a while but it sure was best at this point. I rode out and was actually thankful that I had taken it instead. There was a little bit of traffic but I was unaffected as I was on my motorbike making it easier to turn into alleys and narrow corners to beat

ALLEN'S POV I was not angry at all with Xander but this time I had decided that I would be showing reactions for how he had treated me the other day. If I had been angry, perhaps I might not have gone ahead to do my patrol which led to catching the enemy. I merely was trying to make him understand and feel just what it was like to be pushed and trapped in the corner and not being trusted by your own best friend. His reaction by suddenly establishing the fact that he was my Alpha the other day was far more painful than it was embarrassing. I had brought in the prisoner and had him securely chained up with silver bindings around his feet. That was definitely going to keep him down and weak. I never left his side as I kept observing him. He actually had nerves that could make one want to kill him instantly as he continued referring to me as Xander's lap dog. He made fun of me by saying that Betas were only there to clean up after their relative Alphas and knowing that was near to bei

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
