Mark of an Alpha's Mate Chapter 46
(Cassie's POV) I made an excuse to get rid of the men but the next evening, they were back and I had to talk. So I told them all that happened during the kidnapping. Technically it wasn't kidnapping, because I went to the kidnappers. “Then what happened?” the big men continued to ask. They'd been interrogating me for the last two hours. “Don't you think it's a little too much sir?” Charisma asked. “Cass is clearly exhausted.” “Ms. Parks, I understand your concern. But we need all the information we can get. It's part of the investigation procedure” one of the men explained. I subtly rolled my eyes. “Shall we continue, Mrs. Graham?” the other man asked. I huffed. “No. I've told you everything I know” I said in annoyance. “That's all that happened.”“Are you sure?” “Of course I'm sure. And I'd really appreciate it if you didn't traumatize me anymore by forcing me to relive my horrible experience.”The man sighed. “Alright then. We'll just be on our way out.”Thank goodness! “

(Cassie's POV)The elevator had just begun to move after Jace resumed it and he opened his mouth to make me blush.“I can’t wait to see how fucking pretty you look when you come with my name on your lips.”The words caused me to suck in a sudden breath. But it didn’t help me catch my breath because Jace was on me. His fingers were in my hair, and his palms were gripping my head. His lips worked over mine, the perfect mix of soft and hard. The perfect tempo for me to find my way and catch up with him.When I felt his tongue swipe across mine, I whimpered. Gosh, it's been forever. It wasn’t slobbery. He didn’t shove it in like he was conquering my mouth without a thought. He coaxed me into it, making me want more by tormenting me with never giving enough.“More,” is all I could verbalize. It was all I was comfortable saying. All I knew was that I wanted more. More of this. More of him. More of this feeling.A growl rumbled from his chest in response, and he pushed his thigh between m

(Cassie's POV) In the heart of the woods, on a moonlit night, I found myself surrounded by towering trees, their branches reaching out like gnarled fingers. Where am I? The air was thick with an eerie stillness, broken only by the rustling of leaves and the distant hoot of an owl. “Jace? Are you here?” As I cautiously stepped forward, my senses suddenly heightened, acutely aware of every sound and movement.“Be careful” my wolf spoke to me. The moon had cast a pale glow, illuminating patches of the forest floor, while casting deep shadows elsewhere. “Where are we? Do you recognize this place?” I asked back. When no response came, I sighed. The place felt awfully familiar. But I wasn't sure where or when I'd been here in this part of the woods. But it was in one of these very shadowy pockets that I heard it— a soft, melodic voice, barely audible, yet captivating. What was that? It seemed to emanate from deeper within the woods, beckoning me closer. My heart raced as curiosit

~ Weeks Later (Cassie's POV) “Cassandra?” I kept my eyes fixed on my laptop's screen. “Cassandra.” “Yes, Abby. Talk to me. What is it?” She sighed. “Would you look at me at least?” I sighed and met her eyes. “Yes, Abigail. What's the matter?” “It's not okay for you to keep ignoring him.”Not this again. I shook my head slightly and returned my attention to my laptop screen. “I mean it's been a little over five weeks already, Cass. And the poor guy.”“There's nothing poor about a man who was willing to just up and leave his newlywedded wife for eight whole months, Abby. Months. I could've maybe handled eight weeks a bit better. But months...?” I clicked my tongue three times, “Absolutamente no (Absolutely not)” She moved her hands from the back pockets of her jeans and rubbed her palms against her thighs. “It could be six or seven months too you know? Let's be positive here” she said. I scoffed. Positive my arse. “Plus your marriage isn't that new...” I paused my typi

(Cassie's POV) “Smoke's clear. But we haven't... hey!” I didn't wait for the fireman to complete his sentence when I pushed past him and into the house. “Cassandra!” my mother shrieked. “Get my daughter out of there now!” Even though it'd been a while since I lived here and everything in here was almost burnt to a crisp, I knew everything in this house, including the exact positions of all the furniture in every room. “Isa? Abuela? Mateo! Where are you?” I called out, coughing. “Abuelo?!” I automatically turned to the dining room, where something caught my attention.No. I gasped when I saw the hand on the floor and my adrenaline kicked in.“God no, no, no!” I bolted to the dining room and discovered Isabel on the floor, lying in a pool of blood.“Isabel!” I shouted before I dropped to my knees beside her. “Isa please!” I studied the scene around us. There was blood everywhere and there were shards of glass all over the ground. I slapped Isabel's cold cheek. “Isa, please. Is

(Cassie's POV) I felt like dying at that moment. I'm going to lose her? The one person who had always been there for me. The one person who always cared for me no matter how angry she was at me. The one person who always stood up for me. I'm going to lose my best friend? My legs wobbled underneath me and Natán stumbled back a little. “We tried everything we could” the doctor continued, “But unfortunately, we couldn't save them.” “Oh my goodness” Montana whispered, a hand to her stomach as Charisma held me. “From the looks of how they were brought in, they were gravely injured even before the fire. However, an autopsy will determine the cause of death of the couple and their son. I'm really sorry for your loss.” Brian. It had to be that monster. “Wait, wait, wait” Montana spoke. “Did you just say the death of the couple and their son?” Wait what? The doctor nodded and put his glasses back on. Then he reached for a clipboard from one of the doctors behind him and read from

(Natán's POV) The love of my life was back. She was back to me and I was not going to waste any more time with her. The taste of her seeped into my mouth. Honey and cherries laced with something so intangible, so delicate, my head spun. I tilted my lips and her entire body went rigid. I licked her mouth and ripples of sensation trembled up her chest and her breasts heaved. I nibbled on her lower lip and her mouth opened. I eased my tongue in, danced it over hers, and the taste of hers intensified.Not innocent, not at all.My Isabel. And definitely not like someone who was still healing. My groin throbbed, making my balls harden. I swirled my thumb around her clit and a whine trembled up her throat. I absorbed it all. I swiped my tongue past her sharp little teeth and goosebumps flared on my skin. A low growl rumbled up my chest and I leaned forward, so my chest brushed the full ripeness of her breasts.I deepened the kiss, and the trembling of her body intensified. Her spine curv

(Jace's POV) “Finally!” Michael cried out, throwing his hands in the air. “Done and dusted.” I chuckled at his happiness. It'd been almost eight months since we left home and the summit had finally come to an end. The game plan was now in motion. “I've got my bags packed and ready to get on the first plane back home” José grinned, joining in on the excitement. My Beta and I exchanged glances.“What?” he asked, “Did I suddenly sprout two heads?” “Someone's in a hurry to get home” Michael teased. “Like you aren't” José chuckled. “I've been away from my wife and daughter for almost eight months. I missed my little girl's first birthday. I don't know if she'll even recognize me anymore.”“You'll be there for more milestones, man” Michael patted his back. “Don't worry.” “No one said being a second beta was easy,” I said and dropped on the couch. “True. And off the record... shouldn't you be in a hurry to get back home too, Alpha Jace?” José asked. Yes, but I wasn't. I didn't want

3 years later...(Cassie's POV) “Honey please stay still. You'll wrinkle your dress” I groaned as I tried to comb Mia's hair. “Mom, it hurts!” she whined and pulled away. “Well you didn't want to use the de-tangling shampoo, remember?” I scolded. “C'mon, we have to hurry before your sister wakes up.”I grabbed her hand. “Noooo, I don't wanna. It hurts!” she whined louder“Oh, Mia...”A loud cry came from my room and I knew the little one was awake. “Mom! There's no toilet paper!” Max cried out. I groaned and looked at Mia who sat there rubbing her head. I opened my mouth to scold her when Kristie walked in. “I've got it Mrs. Graham, don't worry,” she said, taking the brush from my hand. I sighed. “Go check up on the baby,” she told me. I nodded and gave her a grateful look before walking into the nursery. “Momma!” she let out when she saw me. “Mommy's here baby” I cooed and picked her up. I kissed her and wiped her tears. She buried her face in the crook of my neck and I g

~Two months later(Cassie's POV) “Happy birthday...” I heard a voice whisper. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Jace smiling at me. I smiled back and he helped me up. “I better get going. Michael's freaking out already” he chuckled, kissing my temple. “Why would Michael be freaking out?” I asked, throwing my hair in a messy bun. Jace gave me a confused look. “What?” I asked, pinning the bun. “I just asked why Michael would be...”Then it hit me. How could I possibly forget?!“Oh my goodness! Today's the wedding?!” I cried out. “You forgot?” he asked. “What?! No” I lied. Jace chuckled. “What are you still doing here anyway? Go already, the best man can't be late” I said and pushed him out the door. I hurried to take a quick shower and decided to dress there so I don't waste time. Thankfully, my bump doesn't really show in the dress. I fixed my hair and put on some makeup before slipping on my shoes. I grabbed my purse and headed out to my parent's house. ~ ~ ~“Sorry I'm la

(Cassie's POV)I groaned and got back under the covers.Covers?!I forced my eyes open and the bright light from the windows blinded me. I groaned again as my stomach let out a rumble and pulled myself to sit up.A lady dressed in white stood up and walked towards me with a wide smile plastered on her face. I rubbed my temple.“How're you feeling Ms. Adler?” she asked.“How long have I been asleep?”“Only two days” she replies. Only?! Which means all the other packs were gone by now. I eyed her before speaking up again. She's pretty. “Who are you?”“I'm Sharon. Doctor Elise asked me to stay with you till you wake up.” “Well, now I'm up so you can go. Thank you, but your service isn't needed anymore” I said firmly, groaning a little. “Sharon's not going anywhere” my dad's voice boomed from the doorway. “Mr. Adler” Sharon greeted and bowed down at him. “She's been recommended by Elise so she stays till you're better.”“Daddy, I don't need a nanny. I can take very good care of my

(Cassie's POV)News traveled fast in our pack. Everyone came to express their sympathy, acting like my baby was dead. I walked out of the gym through the door of the pack house and everyone stopped to bow to me as I passed by. Not forgetting to add sympathetic looks. I moved into the living room and dropped on the couch, avoiding eye contact with everyone. The door leading to Jace's office was wide open. I saw him standing behind his desk flipping through some paperwork. Max and Mia left with Emily and Nicole back to London for their safety. Jude was nowhere to be found and André decided to stay back. Cassidy was in a wheelchair... but only temporarily. I glanced at Michael as he passed. He smiled sadly at me before walking into Jace's office. “Jace” he called when he entered. Jace looked up and raised his eyebrows. “Yeah?” he said impatiently. “We think we picked up a scent trail on your daughter.”I sat upright as Jace walked around the desk and stood right in front of Micha

(Cassie's POV) I stood in the doorway of the bedroom and stared at him in awe. He was so adorable when he was sleeping. Max looked so much like him. I smiled to myself as a mischievous grin appeared on my face. “Jace!” I screamed as I jumped on top of his sleeping.He grabbed me and threw me underneath him, his hand over my mouth. I waved. “Really?” he chuckled and climbed off me. I laughed. “I'm sorry, it's just that you looked so good sleeping, I just had to”. He looked down at me. “I'm sorry!” I cried playfully and hugged him. “Don't be mad, please?” I said in a tiny voice and pecked his cheek. He grinned. “You're weird as shit,” he said between laughs and I nodded in agreement. He pulled me in for a hug. “I love you” I breathed in his chest as he kissed my forehead. “Me more” he replied. “Go take a shower,” I said and let him go. (Jace's POV) Once I was done showering, I called out to Cassandra to hand me a towel which she did. I stepped out in my boxers and saw her

She grabbed a dress and tried it on. Standing in front of the mirror, tilted her head.“No,” she said and took it off.She tried on another dress.“No!” she screamed and dropped on the bed.Alec rolled his eyes and continued to cut through the paper.“I have nothing to wear for tonight! Alec help me” she pleaded.He ignored her and continued to cut the paper.“Give my back my scissors!” she said and took back her scissors.“What do you want me to do?” he asked with a sigh. “What is the matter with you?”“I'll tell you. I don't like how you treat Cassandra. She's our sister for Pete's sake! And I don't like you hanging around with Blair. She's changing you; you're changing. You're not the big sister I looked up to and admired anymore. You're a spoilt little brat and I can't live with you anymore” he said and grabbed his pillow. “What are you doing?” Cassidy asked. “Alec, I am speaking to you!”“I'm going to Cassandra's. I don't wanna be roommates anymore.”Cassidy's face fell.“I'll c

(Cassie's POV)“What is the matter with both of you?!” the old woman asked. “Look, I don't know why you're screaming but it's not good for you,” I tell her.“I don't wanna hear another word from you”.She turned when the door closed. “How's she now?” she asked Elise.Elise sighed.“What really happened, Cassandra?” Elise asked me.I remained quiet and got back to flipping through the Vogue magazine.Michelle sighed.“Elise, how's Blair?”Blair walked in with a cast around her arm and a bandage around her head. Her face... all bruised up.“Oh,” they chorused.“I thought I told you to rest,” Elise said firmly.“I don't need to rest. I'm fine” Blair said looking directly at me.“There, she said it. She's fine. Now I'm leaving” I said and jumped up from my seat.“Don't you dare take another step young lady!” Dad barks.“Oh gimmie a break, dad.”“No. I'm afraid I'm going to have to punish you” he said.“But dad—”“No son.

(Cassie's POV)Time flew by.Summer found out André was her mate and she was beyond excited. I formed a really tight bond with my baby brother. I loved him to bits. I can't really say the same thing about Cassidy though. I mean that girl was a pain in the everything. So moving on. Blair and I hadn't been getting along, but that wasn't anything new. Jace had been trying to bond with Madison but it wasn't not really working out. And speaking of Jace... A knock interrupted me.“Come in,” I said looking through the paperwork. “Are you still mad about the kiss?” he asked. I seized up the yellow pencil lying on the desk and threw it. It sailed through the air and struck the wall just next to Jace's head, where it struck, vibrating. His eyes widened for a second and I smiled faintly. “Sorry, I didn't realize it was you.”Jace chuckled. “But it's a shame I have only one pencil” I sighed. “What can I help you with Mr. Graham?”“Cass, I'm sorry about the kiss...”“What kiss?” I asked, si

(Cassie's POV) “No, I want it cute... not too simple though,” I said through the phone.Members of the other packs waved and smiled as I passed by. I paused when a few teens ran up to me with notepads and cameras. I gave them my autograph and took selfies with them.“I don't know but I feel it's a girl,” I say. “No. I want it to be perfect.”I saw Montana walk in and look at me. “Err... Ray, I've gotta go. I'll call you later” I said. She suddenly let out a groan and I rushed up to her. “Are you okay?” I asked helping her sit. “The baby's coming!” she cried out. “I just felt my water break.” “Cassie?” Rose called. “Call an ambulance!”“It hurts!” Montana whimpered.I rubbed the back of her hand. “Breathe sweetie. It'll be fine” I told her. “Where on earth is the ambulance?!”“What if I lose another child? I'll be the fifth one.
