The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 74
Alexander's POV...I watched her inhale and exhale; she looked extremely beautiful while sleeping. I don't think I have ever been so engrossed in watching a person sleep. Despite being unconscious, creases of worry weren't far from her fine lines. I had told her, but does she ever listen? It's one thing to be warned of a looming disaster and another to know damn well the bitter truth but still do whatever it is you want. I must admit Edwina is one hell of a stubborn woman. At the same time, she has the most tender heart I have ever come across.If I were in her position, I would either poison my sister slowly or just have her experience a miserable death. Turning away from her, I lay on my back, taking a deep breath. There are more impending situations abreast at the moment. Also, I can't help but think of Edwina and the turmoil her heart would be in at the moment. Somehow, I felt it was my place to do something. Not just to protect her but to also assure her that she did the right th
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 75
Alexander's POV...I stared out the car window as it glided through the road, trying really hard to keep my thoughts from swimming off shore. I sighed deeply with every passing second, the car was awfully quiet, and I could tell Caleb was lost in his own thoughts."Mind sharing what bothers you so?" Caleb asked, breaking the silent jinx and holding the atmosphere.I blinked rapidly like I had just been pulled out of a trance, "a whole lot.""You could break it down.""Don't know where to start.""Either bottom or top, all you need to do is talk." He insisted, gripping the wheel. His arm veins seem like they might pop at the force."Ben's malicious attitude amazes me, and then again, I wonder what got into Sonia to have exposed the sizzler pack wolf yesterday. We have to affirm if all she said was true and she isn't just trying to blackmail her sister and the rest of the pack emotionally.""Is that why you intend to see her, at this hour?"Bitterness laced Caleb's words, and I couldn't
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 76
Edwina's POV...I woke up to find the other side of the bed long cold. It was apparent my dear husband had left the house a long time ago. Checking the time, I noticed I had slept in for a long time. The marathon sex we had the night before had been so soothing to my pain that all I could do was fall into a long sleep. Getting up from the bed, I stretched my full length. The merits of sex must be underestimated, I felt brand new, and some of my worries had dissipated.Heading into the bathroom, I pulled off my robe, staring at my naked self in the mirror. I felt my nipple as I rubbed my hands carefully on my breast. The thoughts of Sonia being molested by our father came rushing back to me, and I felt guilty.Would things have been different if I had a wolf? Would he have abused me instead of Sonia? How was he even still alive and hadn't committed murder? Then the thought of Sonia's anger regarding my marriage to Xander confused me. Did I do anything wrong? What exactly was my fault?
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 77
Alexander's POV...I stared at Sonia as she kept up with her hysterical laughter. Somehow I was beginning to doubt the said feelings I had for her. This lady right in front of me is definitely crazy, and I didn't want to believe I had fallen for someone like her. I was about to ask Caleb to summon the warden to come to check her. The moment she had set eyes on me, she burst into a string of laughter, causing her bump to join in.I folded my arms across my chest, waiting patiently for her to get herself in check."You bastard!!" She growled.One of my gammas attempted to shut her up, but I nodded for him to let her be. Her wolf had surfaced, and I could see it threatening to unleash itself. I felt the urge to laugh out. She must think my being crippled implies her wolf having the ability to confront me."How could you?" Sonia banged the table separating us violently. I had a feeling the pain she caused herself would ache for a few hours."I agree to it that you were hurt and you needed
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 78
Authors POV...The opening of the files rustled, serving as the only sound that the room produced. He heaved another sign; trying to concentrate with so many thoughts in his head made it totally uneasy. Caleb prided himself in not getting distracted by anything, but it turns out he was just all bluff. Since the nighthe had mind-blowing sex with Ramona, she had left him hanging, acting like they hadn't spent a moment together. He hadn't been himself.Shaking his head, he returned his attention to the files. After returning from the prison visit, Alexander had decided to get to the office to get some work done with the intention of returning home a bit early. He, on the other hand, had gotten a hold of the prisoner's file to fish out the ones worthy enough to be trained as a night howler soldier.They needed as many as they could gather, but the files he had come across so far were criminals that couldn't be given another chance. It made his frustration increase; he needed to ease his
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 79
Alexander's POV...I pulled out my tie violently, sending a dull pain to my neck. To my disappointment, the conversation I had with Sonia got a better part of me. Maybe I was too harsh on her, but that still doesn't justify her actions. She was independent-minded enough to know what to do and what not. I inhaled, trying to clear my head.Throwing my head back, I shut my eyes tightly, jolting back almost at the same time when I remembered that I had not spoken to Edwina all day. It surprised me that she made no attempt to reach out to me. I felt a bit bothered. Picking up my phone from the stack of files I had tossed it on, I called her. But she wasn't picking. Where the hell could she be? She should be awake by now. I thought again, checking my wristwatch.I was about to start raving when she picked up."Hey."Her soft voice filled my ears, sending some tingle my way."Hey, mama," I cooed, surprised at the change in my tone. "Missed you all day.""Missed you more, sorry I didn't infor
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 80
Edwina's POV..."Oh heavens!" I moaned in exhaustion. My head felt like it would drop off my neck. After trying my hardest to console Becca and giving her some advice that didn't sound so reassuring to me either, we had headed out to foresee the situation of the pack.Since the pack's meeting, everyone moved with an unsteady weight, each person looking behind whenever they walked. The sizzlers had kept everyone, including myself, on alert.Especially the she-wolves and cubs, they all need some form of assurance that everything will be sorted. It's understandable that the alpha had played his part in assuring them they were safe. It was my duty to make sure they trusted his words enough. I only hoped his plans were in full swing.My first visit had been to the infirmary to check on the wounded warriors still receiving treatment. My body ached as I inhaled the scent of the duvet. The smell hit my nostril, sending a shiver down my spine. I didn't realize how much I missed him until this
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 81
Author's POV...Becca stared out the general study window, watching the alpha's private car drive into the garage. Her heart raced, knowing Caleb would be in the car with him.She turned her back, taking a deep breath. Her hands shook; she was nervous, and the last thing she wanted was to see him. She had no idea if she was going to be able to control her emotions around him any longer. The urge to blurt out and scream at his face was so strong."Of what use would that be?" She questioned herself, disappointed at the turnout of the event. The last thing Becca wanted was to get in a love triangle. It felt like the moon goddess had something against her in terms of finding love.Her first love had died in the war, leaving her dry and lonely. To top it all, she fell for a man who wouldn't look twice at her. It made her feel too conscious of her looks, blaming it on the age difference between them."It is a matter of the heart, and it's certainly unpredictable. It's not your fault your he

The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 217
Authors POV...Becca searched around the kitchen uncomfortably, trying not to meet Caleb's eyes. It was just as Ramona had said; he looked terrible. His eyes obviously were sleep deprived. She had been trying her best to avoid him all week, and it worked. Becca didn't get to see him, just as she had wished.Watching her every move, Caleb walked towards the kitchen island, taking Ramona's seat. He sighed in exhaustion."Until when would you keep doing this?" He asked, holding his head together with his hands.She gulped hard, toying with her fingers. "did you know about Ramona coming?""How was I supposed to know? I haven't spoken to her in weeks. I was surprised myself to see her here."Searching his eyes for any form of lie or pretence, Becca saw the naivety in his eyes. It was obvious Caleb had no idea of Ramona's coming. She inhaled and exhaled at the same time, trying to steady her breath.It wasn't worth brooding on too much; Becca herself was tired of being so far away from him.
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 216
Authors POV...Ramona searched around the crowd, trying to see if she would get a hold of Becca, but she seemed to disappear at every chance she got to approach her. One thing about the gathering of night howlers is how merry they all become and how they know how to party till the day ends. Especially since the alpha had finally gotten back to his feet. Annoyed at how hard it was becoming, Ramona made her way towards the podium area to ask a guard where Becca was. The guard directed her to the kitchen.Her heels clattered against the hallways as she manoeuvred her way around the pack house. Getting into the kitchen, Becca was there as she had been told. Standing at the edge of the kitchen was Becca, who seemed so lost in her thoughts. Ramona bit her lip really hard; she felt so guilty.For the past three weeks, Ramona had forced her way into Caleb's home to have him bend to her wheel. Unfortunately, Caleb seems to be much more determined than she was to not give in to her advances.Ev
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 215
Edwina's POV...For what seemed like a lifetime, he didn't say a word. I was getting bothered, and my standing didn't feel good, considering my position. I would like to think that Xander reads my mind. Almost in a split second, he had dusted a chair that sprouted out from among the piles of antiques in the space and had me seated on it.I gulped nervously, feeling bad for thinking ill of him. "Xander..."He held a hand up, "please let me finish." He pleaded."Okay." I let out in a whisper.Still standing, Xander had his back turned to me, obviously trying to hide the tears in his eyes. "over the years, as I grew, I leaned on Ben as he was the only person really close to me. I felt safe trusting him with all of me. Also, the idea of family grew within me so much. I couldn't wait to have a Luna. When I did come of age, I pleaded hard with the moon goddess to show me my desired mate. When she showed you to me, I was too greedy and thought I was doing it for the sake of the pack. Eventua
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 214
Edwina's POV...I stomped my foot through the hallway in annoyance, indecisive as to why my emotions were spluttering all over the place. I could blame it on pregnancy, knowing quite well it wasn't just about that.Tears laced my eyes as I bounced off the walls. Seeing him stand in all of his glory, like the Greek god most books describe, was overwhelming. In all truth, Xander is a good-looking man. Every of his body structure, from the chiselled jawline to his legs, made my clit ache.I was wet beyond measure, and if he slipped right inside me this minute, I was sure to orgasm right on the spot. I feel angry at myself for having such thoughts, considering how much he had disregarded me. But what to do when I miss him so much? I ache for his touch every night, and my urges had mounted since I got pregnant.Probably, just maybe, I would have held back on my sexually consumed thoughts if he wasn't looking so much like a snack. It's been a month, and I must say every day is more than ten
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 213
Alexander's POV...I shifted uncomfortably in the wheelchair, eager to stand up and not have to deal with the facade I had been living in anymore. Glancing to my side, I tried to keep eye contact with Edwina. It was obvious she was doing everything she could to avoid my ears. A week after she found out about my true disabled state, I tried to get on her good book, but she never paid me any mind.I had thought coming out to the pack members would be easy, as I had informed Caleb to arrange the process after a week when I might have gotten back with Edwina. To my disappointment, three weeks went by with myself and Caleb wallowing in self-pity and none of our women paying us any mind. For myself and Edwina, we have been going back and forth on her forgiving me.But she had been really adamant about not wanting to talk to me. The last time I tried to reach out to her, she had told me it would take her a very long time to accept the new me, as she had put it. Sounds frustrating, right? I m
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 212
Edwina's POV...I rolled to the side of the bed, trying to find a comfortable side of the bed to rest in, but I couldn't. I had been awake since about seven am, but I couldn't find myself standing up from the bed. I just wanted to remain there, most especially to avoid seeing Xander. At the same time, I was aching badly for food and a nice cup of tea. My baby and I had awoken with a craving for food.Turning around to get a hold of my phone, I attempted to dial Becca when there came a knock on the door. As I got off the bed reluctantly to open it, I hoped it wouldn't be Xander. Nothing has prepared me for such a discussion this morning.Opening it, I found Becca by the door with a platter of food. "Oh my goodness, Becca! You are godsent." I muttered, opening the door widely.My eyes glazed at the sumptuous sight of the breakfast of bacon, toast, scrambled egg, sausage, some freshly made juice, and a cup of tea to cap it all."How in the world did you do this? Do you live in my mind?"
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 211
Authors POV...Caleb scoffed in irritation as he threw daggers at Ramona with his eyes. It had been hard for him to get over how low she had stooped to get back at him. Having her appear in his home looking all relaxed made him boil terribly. He had just taken a pill to suppress the headache threatening to split his head. The moment his eyes landed on Ramona, it seemed to be coming back with full force."Answer the fucking question. Why are you here?" Caleb blurted again, his eyes catching sight of Xander wheeling himself towards his room.Ramona sat with gait, staring at Caleb with a straight face. She had no intention of backing away from fighting for his attention. She had known the kind of ruckus the video and document she had sent to Becca would cause. However, she was less bothered about it and couldn't care less about what anyone thought of her. She wants a home with Caleb and being Ramona, there is no way she would let it go that easily without a fight.Becca was way older tha
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 210
Alexander's POV...Eyeballing his ass out, I turned my back to him, trying to wash up the used cups. One thing I loved to do was handle my chores. Before I got confined to the wheelchair, I used to swing by Ben's place to crash after a long day at work. We end up cooking and washing up ourselves. They were sweet memorable moments. I wanted to distract myself from responding to Caleb, or should I say, I was trying to gather my thoughts."Why aren't you saying anything?" He pressed on, raising his head fully now."Can you not." I inhaled deeply, scratching the back of my head. "I hope you haven't taken my advice of keeping something from your woman because I think that has cost me my small family."Caleb snorted, mumbling under his breath. "guess that's too late. But tell me, what happened?""Edwina saw me on my feet," I told him.He started with a perplexed look on his face, "Saw you on your feet? How did that happen?"I rolled my eyes, sitting my butt on a stool. I sighed, "so, yester
The Alpha's Exchanged Mate Chapter 209
Alexander's POV...Woke up to a cold side of the bed. The bags underneath my eyes were enough to act as an airbag during an accident. They were so heavy it felt like my eyes were under pressure.I had waited up for Edwina to return to the room, but it was obvious that wouldn't be happening. I was surprised to find out when I drifted off to sleep, though.My mind wobbled, and all I wanted was to stick to the bed and never have to come out of the room. Different emotions flowed through me. Now that Edwina knows my truth, I feel compelled to let the pack members know too. Truth is, judging by Edwina's reaction, I'm really scared the pack members, too, would be disappointed.I groaned inwardly while pulling at my hair. I can't believe this shit is happening right now; I thought everything was falling into place, and I would show myself to my woman at the right time. I can tell she hates me now and compares me to that fucking Ben. Now I have stooped so low to cursing the dead. I might go b
