My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 57: Play with me, Alpha 2.
Yumi's POV.- “I…” I start nervously but fail to go on. Henry waits patiently, the assuring look on his face letting me know I can take my time. He’s patient and attentive. That relieves me a little and I reach for his hand, keeping my eyes on it as I gather my words. This time, I make sure to come out confident. “We…I am p-pregnant”. But of course, I slip with a stutter. “We are pregnant?” Henry cracks up, but it’s abruptly cut off. I wonder about that and lift my gaze to see his eyes staring down at me, spreading wider and wider upon realization. “You’re pregnant? You’re pregnant!” He sweeps me off my feet into a bear hug as he excitedly goes on repeating that line with sheer joy. He sways me about as I scream and Mom soon comes to join us with laughter, and I watch, with a very content smile on my face…seeing how happy Henry is to be a father. He’s eager and ready, and I’m sure he’s gonna make a great Dad. Henry quickly arranges for a party to celebrate the news and all the Pa
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 58: The Alpha's Baby.
Henry's POV.- Fixing my tie as I stand in front of the floor-length mirror, Yumi smiles with her lips rolled in and held between her teeth softly. My darling beautiful wife and mate is 22 now, and a week away from being 5 months pregnant with our child; My heir. Her thick brown hair is held in a tight neat bun sitting perfectly on her small head. My eyes glide down to her protruded tummy. It’s grown a bit bigger again and the joy in my heart only keeps skyrocketing as the day of delivery crawls closer. I’m just so eager to have that little bundle of joy in my hands. “You’re beautiful, you know…and with our child in you….” “Really? I’m glad I’m still very attractive to you.” She gets done with the tie, now helping me put on my blazer as she disappears behind me. “Mom will take you to see the doctor later. Do keep me updated on how it goes.” I fix on my cufflinks. “Sure will. Now, you go out there and earn us more money…honestly, I miss ice-cream so much. Can’t I just have one bo
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 59: My mate goes missing 1.
Henry's POV.- “Yumi?” I and Eliza call and her face hardens at something she’s looking at behind me. I make a swift turn and mirror my mate’s expression when I see what just soiled our precious moment together. Occupying a table three tables away from us, Drex sits…with Clarence? What the heck are they doing together? I grind my teeth lowly, turning back to the people I came here with. Eliza worriedly asks, “Is something wrong, Alpha?” “No… it's just…” “Drex is here,” Yumi jumps in and Eliza gasps. She does know how sore our relationship with that guy is and she’s starting to look regretful for choosing this place. I shake my head with a smile. “You didn’t make a mistake, no one could’ve seen this coming and besides, they’re only here to eat and leave just like us…it’s okay. The waitress is coming so let’s focus on our dinner”. That does brighten the mood and my mate has the waitress setting her meal first as she tells her about the other consuming being growing inside of her.

Yumi's POV.- “Here you go. The vegetable salad Alpha Henry said to prepare for you.” Bryan hands the bowl to me and I huff. “He’s not here, yet, you follow his orders. I’m tired of this, can someone just get me fruits now? I’m out of those. So who’s gonna go to the supermarket for me?” I blink my eyes sweetly and Eliza laughs while Bryan is caught. “Bryan, get the fresh tasty ones for big sis, okay?” I instruct and he nods, leaving. Now I turn to Eliza, waiting for orders from me. I sigh, ready to ask something I’ve been wanting to. “How’s Nathan?” Her face morphs gradually into a pained one and I wave my hand for her to come sit with me. Eliza settles tensely next to me on the couch with her mood, dim. Her sullen composure makes me regret bringing the matter up when she begins to talk. “I suppose he’s fine now,” She says sullenly. “I’m sorry things had to go this way…I was so sad that night when I accidentally met Bryan, but…”Her emotions choke her and she struggles to go on.
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 61: Captivity.
Yumi's POV-Drex calls out to someone outside and a frail-looking girl rushes in with a tray. Too tired to fight and yell, I let her sit me up and feed me. Of course, I didn’t want to eat but thinking over my baby, I reluctantly gave in.The dark-haired girl looks frightened, as if afraid any mistake she makes will incur Drex’s wrath on her. I observe her quietly. She’s got a few scars on her body and is clad in a frilly, armless short dress. Her hair is untidy.I lift the bangs covering her face much to her horror and see her heavy red eyes, pale face, and palm print on her cheek. I frown deeply. “What happened to you?”She shakes her head vigorously, very reluctant to tell for fear of dire consequences. I do understand and Drex leaves us after telling her to be out after two minutes.“Tell me…I can help you,” I try to convince her. She fearfully looks around in fear someone might be listening in.Then she gets anxious, rubbing her arms skeptically. I rest a hand on hers, making her
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 62: The Alpha's Wrath 1.
Henry's POV-Enraged, frenzied, nerves snapping, heartbeat on overdrive……as I stomp towards my warriors. Just the look on my face alone has them all cowering and clearing the way as I get to Drew, crouched on the floor and seemingly inspecting something.“Drew….” I growl, barely able to hang onto my rational senses as my muscles continue tensing, my body itching badly to devour someone.He stands up slowly and turns around to face me with an angry and dysphoric look.“What happened?” I ask, my voice straining as I pick up faint scents of my mate in the chilly, night air. Talon claws on my patience, more than agitating to jump out and sprint in search of our mate.“Drex…he got to them.” He moves aside to show me a fresh splatter of blood which trails off into a bush path and shakes his head as if to deny what it implies. I glare at it and up at him for an explanation. “Bryan….”My eyes expand in shock. “What…did you just say?”“He’s most likely.…” He proceeds no further, lowering hi
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 63: Gunshot.
Yumi's POV-I adjust on the noisy mattress, bringing my back to rest against the headboard with a painful sigh. I stare down at my tummy, an unhappy look on my face as I rub gently.I’ve been feeling pains all around my waist and in my tummy as well. Drex won’t listen to me and get a Doctor to come check my baby.He does glare at it all the time and chooses not to care. So I know he hates it that I’m carrying his enemy’s child. Asshole.I wince again, feeling the searing pain cut through my back and I hunch forward. It’s lasting longer than usual.I gasp out and Drex turns to me. He pockets his phone and comes to me.“What’s wrong?” He stretches his hands forward but I swat them away with a glare.“Don’t touch me!...don’t suddenly act like you care…you bastard…” I begin to pant heavily and groan in pain, moving about in discomfort.Drex ignores my trying to push him away and embraces me to himself. I’m too weak to go against him so I let go, breathing heavily as my eyes begin to droop
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 64: Loss.
Henry's POV-Searching, leaving no place unturned. And yet… we’re not close enough to finding her.The wolves at the bastard’s Pack have no idea about their Alpha’s whereabouts and so we’re stuck at a dead end after four days of unrelenting search.“Curse this!” I yell into the cold night air and pick up low footsteps approaching.I listen on, still very caught up in my rage as I realize whoever it is, is in a hurry. A run from danger. Panting and very hurt from the whiff of blood scent traces in the air. I wait in the dark and a figure stumbles out.Immediately, I seize them by the neck, pulling into the light to see a man. A wolf.I bare my teeth at him, tightening my grip around his neck. “Explain why you have my mate’s scent on you!”“Alpha Henry, wait!”Someone pulls us apart and I see Delano. Nyx helps the gasping wolf and urges him to speak.“Your mate…she’s in danger…Drex has her and he plans to make her his…she… she… she’s been shot”.I stagger back, the impact crushing my he

“That settles it,” I let out a sigh as I lean back against the backrest, stretching and flexing my arms before I rise from my seat. I wonder if Weslee must’ve woken by now.Searching around with my eyes briefly, I smile when they fall upon a heartwarming sight. They’ve fallen asleep again. Don’t think I’ll be able to stop by the grocery store. I step around my desk and walk towards the kids asleep on the couch, with temples pressed against each other and their school bags on their thighs. Bending forward a little, I tap their cheeks gently to rouse them up. “Heather, Zachery, wake up. It’s time to go home.” “I wasn’t able to finish my lunch at recess. Can I eat it on the way?” Heather chirps as I buckle her seatbelt before buckling that of her younger brother. “Okay, honey.” She beams at me as I ruffle her dark bangs and step back to shut the door so I can get in and drive over to her older brothers’ school. There’s no need to pick up Yohan since his grandma already did. I watch t
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 73: Resplendent Warmth.
Yumi's POV.- He’s not so surprisingly, an oddly familiar face. I suppose it’s because I’ve seen a few old photos to recognize him right away. And also, I avert my gaze slowly to the passenger side of the car and smile widely at the exit of his female partner. My mate moves immediately, unable to mask the sheer surprise that explodes onto his face as he swiftly approaches them. “Bloody hell, Aniki...” He sighs in a smiling voice. “I know Henry said they were gonna delay a bit, but he never mentioned you were the ones coming with them.” The attractive man hardens his expression upon Henry’s statement as they now stand before each other. Will you look at the looks on their faces? A cold standoff, really? “Um, Yumi...shouldn’t you do something about this?” Eliza nudges me and I turn to look at her and find her pensive. I huff and return my gaze along my response, “I’m sure it’s nothing serious.” Yeah, ‘cause right now, both men break the false tension to embrace each other with lau
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 72: Pups Everywhere!
Yumi's POV.- “Hardin! Get your brothers down for breakfast!” I yell from where I’m standing at the foot of the stairs. Hands akimbo while I wait to hear his response before returning to the kitchen. “Coming, mommy!” His response comes shortly after with the sound of a door slamming, and I shake my head as I turn around to return to my station where my 7-year-old daughters are. Marian and Marina are twins we adopted 5 years ago. We had rescued them from a fire that claimed the lives of their family and took them in since they knew no one and had no relatives. They’re human kids who attended my kindergarten and now, they’re my added joy. Both identical girls are adorned with reddish-brown curly long hair and sea-green eyes. Ever enthusiastic and inquisitive kids who love to help me out with every chore around the house. I smile and join them to set the long dining table just when the boys come running in. “Stop right there!” I halt the bustling little crowd with a hand out. Hardin
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 71: The Alpha's Insecurity.
Yumi's POV.- “Don’t even think about it. Put that down- Now.” Henry glares threateningly at me and my hand quivers. He’s so scary. Solemnly looking into the big bowl of chocolate ice cream with a broken heart, I let the plastic spoon drop back in. I put on my puppy eyes, but he’s quick to dodge the shot and moves over the threshold. “Don’t let me catch you in this act again. I’ll be waiting outside”. Always so cold and stringent. I pout and depart from my precious bowl. I know why he’s being this way. Carrying our second baby, he’s being reminded of our first child we lost over a year ago. So he’s worn this sense of pensive responsibility over himself and is trying to protect me and prevent all odds. I can understand…I was equally hurt too. But…can’t you trust me, Henry? When I step out of the mansion, I’m met with the sight of my mate, exercising his alpha prowess, barking commands, and ordering reports. Henry…I suck in a slow breath, flattening a protective hand over my protr
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 70: Your Eyes Tell 2.
Henry's POV.- “Hey, little brother.” I approach him and he frowns at me. He hates it when I call him that and it’s all fun for me. “Busy these days, huh? Haven’t seen you much lately. Pack issues?” I try to take a roundabout way about it and he nods softly, “Yeah”. “Rogues?” His aura shifts and so do his mood and expression. Maybe Martins was right in the end. The stiff look on his face says it all. “What is she to you?” I press forward, taking on a serious tone and he lowers his gaze, brows furrowing and I know he’s reluctant to tell me. I can only marvel in surprise. This is rather new and unexpected. I smirk inwardly, this might be interesting. Liam’s now keeping things from me. She must be special. I tap him on the shoulder. “No need to look all cryptic. Come on, dinner's about to start without us”. He only nods with a hum and proceeds ahead of me as I watch after him. If my guess is right, things are getting interesting here. “You stuff all of that into your mouth? Amazing
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 69: A Family Dinner.
Henry's POV.- I chuckle lowly, a palm over my mouth so I don’t let the sounds out as I watch her in utter amusement. Yumi shoots an arm out of the blanket-roll she’s trapped herself in. Like an undead rising into life, her other hand shoots out and she moves in breaking attempts to lift her body off the bed. “Hen…ry.” Even her voice cracks like she’s just awakening from several years of slumber as half of her body emerges successfully from the blanket-roll. The sight is funny as she looks like a kebab roll. Ah…my thoughts are getting glazed over again. ‘Buttercup,’ She mind-links me and I smirk, defiantly moving from watching her to going to her aid. I come to stand next to the bed with my hands in the pockets of my sweatpants as I stare down at her, adoration coloring my vision. She twists her body so that she’s brought to lie on her back as she lets out a lengthy yawn, stretching her arms sideways with her eyes momentarily shutting. When she brings her eyes open, they give me
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 68: Your eyes tell 1.
Yumi's POV.- “He was rescued by a member of Alpha Delano’s Pack and had been with him ever since, receiving treatment. The Alpha himself only recently found out and waited for him to heal first. After finding out his identity, they sent him here immediately”. I listen to Kendal’s explanation whilst the tears coating my eyes. Pushing a smile through to my face as I cry the words, “Bryan…I thought we lost you”. I vacate my spot beside Henry to reach for Bryan who receives my hands that squeezes his tightly as relief bathes through me. With a better smile, I say with warmth and gratitude, “Thank the goddess that you’re okay.” Then I avert my gaze a bit to smile at Eliza who steps closer, nodding at me as she clumsily wipes the tears from her cheeks. With Bryan’s miraculous return, it all just falls into place. I’ve got my friends, family, and the whole Pack…I couldn’t be any more grateful than I am right now. Thinking I can recline back to relax a bit, Zana and Zainab are quick to

Yumi's POV-“You’re a very selfish woman, Yumi…and I deeply pity myself…I fell in love with such a self-conceited woman….”He spits out with disdain and my already broken heart shatters into uncountable pieces. On an impulse, I dash toward him.My hands embrace him as I speak up in defense of myself.“No…no Henry. Don’t say that please…I…I was afraid…I failed you…I failed him…I failed me…I failed us…and I couldn’t keep him safe and alive….” I pour out and he just shuts his eyes, biting his lip as he remains still.I go on talking. “I didn’t mean to…it never occurred to me you were in so much pain…I’m sorry”.“It’s because you only keep thinking about none but yourself! You…you…made me regret us…” He strains, eyes open and lost.I shake my head desperately. God, I have wronged this man. He loves me to a fault and yet…all I do is bring him pain.But I won’t leave. I love him. I will show it to him…I won’t lose him.We can get through this…I have been blinded by myself and all I could se
My Possessive Alpha; His Reluctant Mate Chapter 66: Regrets and patch up 1.
Yumi's POV-“I’m sorry, Luna…we lost the baby”. The deluge of drowsiness playing me disappears in an instant and I feel everything in me collapse.At first, I’m quiet and the next second, I break into a hysteria. Screaming and shouting…unable to bear the weight of this excruciating pain. Then I’m held down by the nurses as the doctor injects me. They let go just when everyone starts coming in and my vision sways and blurs. I fall asleep.On my waking, I refuse all who come to see me and refuse to talk to anyone. Especially not to my mate. The one I’ve failed the most.“Your medication is here, Luna,” The blonde nurse says to me and I turn my neck to thank her.“Thanks,” I say in a shallow voice, feeling more depressed now. The Doctor walks in and she leaves after making sure I take my meds.He’s come to discuss with me about my uterus. I look at him who shares a look of improbability and I sigh, knowing what it is. “I see….”“But there’s a chance of healing. When it’s fully healed, y
