The Alpha Hidden Mate Chapter Twenty
Ariel took a deep breath as she prepared herself for another busy day at the diner. She had decided to focus on work and put her complicated feelings for Xavier aside. It wasn't easy, but she knew it was necessary for her own well-being.As the doors of the diner swung open, customers began to flood in, their voices filling the air. Ariel put on a smile and greeted each person with warmth and kindness, determined to provide the best service she could.Chloe, her ever-supportive friend, was by her side, helping to manage the influx of customers. The two of them worked together seamlessly, a well-oiled machine that kept the diner running smoothly.Throughout the day, Ariel's mind occasionally wandered to Xavier. She wondered what he was doing, how he was feeling, and if he had truly meant what he said about wanting to change. But she quickly pushed those thoughts aside, reminding herself that she needed to focus on the present.As the lunch rush died down, Chloe excused herself to run s

Xavier sighed as he drove his mother, Regina, back to the mansion. He couldn't help but feel frustrated with her sudden appearance at the diner. He had wanted to have a private conversation with Ariel, and his mother's presence had only made things more complicated."Mom, why did you have to come to the diner?" Xavier asked, his voice tinged with annoyance. "I was in the middle of talking to Ariel, and now things are even more complicated."Regina smiled, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "Oh, Xavier, I just wanted to see how things were progressing with Ariel. I thought it would be a good opportunity for us to get to know each other better."Xavier sighed, running a hand through his hair. "Mom, we can't just show up unannounced like that. Ariel needs her space, and I don't want to overwhelm her."Regina waved her hand dismissively. "Nonsense, Xavier. Ariel and I are already such good friends. I wanted to make sure she knows she has my support and that I'm here for her."Xavier glance

As Xavier made his way out of the council chambers, his mind still swirling with thoughts of Ariel, Jaxon walked closely beside him, sensing his friend's inner turmoil. Sensing Xavier's distracted state, Jaxon placed a steady hand on his shoulder, causing him to pause."Xavier, I know you're eager to return to your secret life with Ariel, but there's something you need to know," Jaxon said, his voice filled with urgency.Xavier turned to face Jaxon, his brow furrowing in confusion. "What is it, Jaxon? What could be so important?"Jaxon took a deep breath before continuing. "Alpha Cole, Ariel's sister Esther's husband, is currently in the palace. He's been waiting to see you, Xavier."Surprise washed over Xavier's face, momentarily replacing his thoughts of Ariel. Alpha Cole was a powerful and influential figure in the supernatural world, and his interest in Xavier's alliance was both intriguing and concerning."Why would Alpha Cole want to see me?" Xavier questioned, his mind racing t

As Xavier tried to come up with a convincing response to Alpha Cole's suspicion, Jaxon appeared, coming to Xavier's rescue."Alpha Cole," Jaxon greeted, stepping forward with confidence. "I apologize for the interruption, but I have urgent matters to discuss with Xavier. It is a private affair that requires his immediate attention."Alpha Cole's gaze shifted from Xavier to Jaxon, his suspicion evident. "And who might you be?" he asked, his tone tinged with authority.Jaxon bowed respectfully. "I am Jaxon, a trusted advisor to the Alpha King and his beta," he replied smoothly. "I assure you, Alpha Cole, this matter is of utmost importance and requires our utmost discretion. Xavier must attend to it personally."Alpha Cole's gaze lingered on Jaxon for a moment, his expression unreadable. Finally, he nodded. "Very well," he said, his voice filled with caution. "But I expect you to finally attend to me once it is resolved."Jaxon nodded, his face remaining composed. "Of course, Alpha Cole

Xavier's heart raced as he absorbed Esther's revelation. He knew that Esther held the power to change everything, to expose his true identity to Ariel. Yet, a part of him still clung to the hope of protecting Ariel from the burdens of his position as the Alpha King."Esther, please," Xavier pleaded, his voice filled with desperation. "I understand your concern, but Ariel doesn't need to know. It will only bring more danger and complications into her life."Esther's eyes softened, her gaze filled with empathy. "Xavier, I understand your intentions, but keeping such a significant secret from Ariel won't have a positive outcome," she said firmly. "She deserves to know the truth, to be a part of the decisions that affect both of your lives. Keeping her in the dark will only breed mistrust and resentment."Xavier's shoulders slumped, the weight of his secret bearing down on him. He knew deep down that Esther was right, that honesty was the foundation of any strong relationship. But the fea

"Ariel, I've realized that I haven't been as considerate and appreciative as I should be," he explained, his voice steady. "I want to make an effort to show you how much you mean to me and how grateful I am for your presence in my life."Ariel's eyes searched his, a mixture of curiosity and uncertainty shining in her gaze. "But why the sudden change, Xavier?" she pressed gently, wanting to understand his motives.Xavier hesitated for a moment, choosing his words carefully. "I've been reflecting on our relationship and how much you've supported me," he replied, his voice filled with sincerity. "I want to reciprocate that support and show you that I am committed to making our relationship stronger."Ariel's

But her words had caught him off guard, making him question his own actions.Before he could respond, a surge of emotions overwhelmed Xavier.

"I've been meaning to talk to you about some business opportunities.

Xavier —Xavier took a deep breath, formulating an excuse in his mind. "Alpha Calvin, the truth is that I've never believed in the concept of a mate bond or connection. I've always valued personal freedom and the ability to choose my own path."Alpha Calvin's brow furrowed, a mix of confusion and disbelief evident on his face. "But Xavier, you've always been a staunch advocate for pack unity and the traditional values of our kind. It's hard for me to believe that you would reject such an integral part of our culture."Xavier met Alpha Calvin's gaze, his eyes steady as he continued with his fabricated explanation. "I understand how it may seem contradictory, but I've seen too many forced pairings in the past that have led to unhappiness and discord within packs. I simply refuse to subject myself or anyone else to that."Alpha Calvin's expression softened slightly, but his skepticism lingered. "I see. So, you're suggesting that love and compatibility can be found outside of the mate bon

She took a deep breath, trying to compose herself before responding. "Chloe, I... I've heard rumors, but I don't have any concrete information. It's just something I've heard people talk about. I didn't mean to react so strongly."Chloe's expression softened as she sensed Ariel's discomfort. "Oh, Ariel, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you. I should have been more careful with my words. But if there's anything you need to talk about or if you want to share something, please know that I'm here for you."Ariel nodded, a mix of relief and guilt washing over her. She appreciated Chloe's support and knew she could trust her with her deepest f
