MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 43
XANDER'S POV Nicolette had begun shivering and I was growing both worried and impatient. I had to draw her even nearer into my arms as I could not fathom what else to do. Why on earth would she be contemplating suicide as a way out. I had imagined that she was stronger than this and could take the situation head on but apparently, I should have lowered my expectations. I really was confused but in all, I just wanted her to get back to normal. I knew Laurel was still right outside my door because she had angrily banged against my door and all I had heard her recline against the door. I told myself that she would be tired of her games tonight and go to bed. She was just not having the fact that I was with my wife which was actually confusing as I still could not get what her problem was exactly. I had not asked her to leave the time she had. She did that of her own volition and now she was hell bent on making what was left of my peaceful life, a living hell. This was unfair really.
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 44
LAUREL'S POV I was not having it tonight. Xander had come back bearing that woman in his arms and seeing her there was very annoying. I knew she was pretending and wondered why they were both soaking wet. Clearly, she must have played a sneaky trick just to get his attention and it was frustratingly annoying. Did she have to start up with such games just to get his attention? I mean, she was actually beginning to cross boundaries and getting my mate to follow her up. I went after him but he had the nerve to shut the door to my face.This was something Xander would not do. It was all her fault. The little miss innocent had played her trump card properly and it got her a little time with my man. It had to be little because I was not giving up. So I figured I would keep pounding on the door and get him to reopen it so I could show him just what a pretender she was. I banged and called out to him but he just would not listen to me which was annoying and then I got tired of doing so. I
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 45
ALLEN'S POV I have not heard from Xander since dinner and right this morning, I had to call the Gamma as it would be much better if there were both of us watching the prisoner. There were no openings for unnecessary risks that would have us losing a valuable prisoner that had taken quite the time to get. Adriana informed me that she was already there as she could not leave the prisoner's side. The girl was excellent and seriously, I was beginning to regret why I had not reached out to her the very first time it happened. I had not forgotten about the previous night occurrence with Laurel and trust me, I cannot say I was surprised. The lady was up to no good but the only surprising thing was why on earth would she actually think that I would ever stoop as low as going against my own friend. Or was I beginning to leave off signs that I was betraying him or something? I needed to fix that if that was the case but then the first things first. I needed to get that confession from the
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 46
MAXWELL'S POV I know, I seem like the villian each time anyone thinks about my name. But then, it's something that comes with the territory and one would not blame me for it. Xander had no idea what he had done by undermining me right before the world. I had rejected a woman and in order to spite me clearly, he had to go on ahead and marry her. Clearly, he crossed the lines first and that certainly was something I could not accept right now. I had no interest in Nicolette back then because she was of no value. I mean, being mated to an Omega is certainly not Alpha's favorite sport. I had better plans for myself and my pack. She certainly was a remarkably beautiful woman but then, you would have to agree with me on the fact that beauty does not build empires, power does. Had she come on as a mistress, I most certainly would have taken her up but just so you know, I had no interest in her right now either. My problem lies with the fact that Xander had slapped me on the face by ma
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 47
ETHAN'S POV "Did you get the scapegoat over?" He asked me over the phone."Of course but we have a better insider we would utilize." I responded."Who's that, our spy?" He asked me.Questions.. I loved avoiding them as I was used to dishing out the orders and not being interrogated unnecessarily."Not the spy. His mate." I said."Laurel? Thought she's your girlfriend?" He asked me yet again."Girlfriend, yes. But she seems like she's been trying to pull a fast one on me and went back to win her one true mate." I said."Laurel went back to Xander?" He inquired further and was seriously beginning to grit my nerves."Yes and we would work into her," I said."Cool." He said simply and I was relieved."I'll be sending you the plans for the next line of action tonight. We have to make bigger waves so he does not know what or who hit him while I confer with Laurel." I said."Would she listen?" There he was again with the questions."She has no choice." I said."Okay." He said to me and the
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha 48
LAUREL'S POV I turned as I glared at Xander, "you know what, I would look after her." I said to him."What?" He asked me."I want to watch over her." I stated vehemently."No. You have always been at loggerheads with Nicolette from the moment you arrived. All you've been up to has been stealing her husband from her," he said to me in annoyance."Her husband is my mate." I reminded him since he was trying to forget."Doesn't matter. He's not yours anymore." I was pissed off by what he said."Not to me. He's mine forever," I said clearly to him. At that time, the little wench groaned in her slumber. I glared at her and even more when Xander crossed over to go check on her. I could not imagine that he would ever think twice about taking me back. I mean, they had no kids together which meant that he was under no obligation towards her and her little gimmicks. He would have to let her go eventually. Clearly, she was pretending and was using this format to get him to pay her attention
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha 49
XANDER'S POVI know, I should not let it get to me. She was just toying with my emotions and I most certainly cannot let her get what she wanted. Nicolette was still very ill and now was not the time to play mind games with Laurel over a situation I knew well enough that I could get the better of. I had simply dialed my friend who worked with the towing company and then would let him handle the rest. I had decided that I would meet him up with Laurel but asked him to wait for us to arrive before anything else as I could not have her saying that the entire thing was planned and planted although that would be impossible.The doctor was my major interest now and I needed to go pick him up right now. I made my way to the hospital but not before making certain that Nicolette was safe. I did not trust Laurel not to make a mess and do things whilst I was away, hence, I locked the door and the key, I gave to the one member of the staff that was more trustworthy and neutral in all her dealings
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha 50
LAUREL'S POVI could not believe that he had been saying the truth all along but that was not my business. I mean, I still needed to see how truthful he was being to me right? I stood there as I watched the men start their work and start searching through the river while I stood there with him watching. Seeing was believing after all and no one would actually blame me for being careful with my thoughts. It would be only a matter of moments and I would be ready to think on my next move. I stood there watching and it took a really long time before they found the car.I let off a gasp which I had no idea if I meant it or not because of the state of the cat. It looked pretty much bunged up from the accident and folded, making me wonder how she had gotten out of it alive. The lucky wench."Was she really in on that thing?" I asked, looking up at him."See for yourself, that's her car right?" He asked me."But how did she survive?" I demanded."Well, I was on her trail so I saved her before

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
MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha Chapter 116
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

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
