The Alpha's Slave Mate Chapter 34
Nathan“We should pull out.”Ronan sighed from where he sat lazily across the armchair, his legs dangling over one side. He put down his book and looked at me.“Why would we pull out?”“We’re you not just listening to me?” I cried in exasperation.“Yes, I was listening,” he replied calmly, “but I didn’t hear anything that made me think we should pull out.”“There was a human trespassing!” I shouted back, while I resumed my pacing.Even as I said it, I knew I was overreacting. And I hated that. I, Nathan Blake, did not do over-reacting.Ronan narrowed his eyes at me. “Are you sure there’s not something else you’re failing to tell me?”I’d been Ronan’s Beta for nearly a year now, after his dad retired, and he knew this was not normal behaviour for me. I immediately felt myself tense up.“No, of course not. You know how we like to keep humans out of our business. It’s just too risky.”Ronan sighed again but stood up and walked over to me.“I’m going to ignore the fact your hiding s

ColeHave you ever had that feeling that you’ve made the wrong decision, and that something bad was going to happen?Well I had that feeling in spades right now.Natalie had resorted to actually physically dragging me towards the house.“Come on Cole, it won’t be that bad,” she tried.“It is already,” I said, listening to the loud music booming out of the house in front of us.“Look,” she said, suddenly turning to face me and grabbing both of my hands, “I promise that I’ll not leave you on your own, and if after an hour you still hate it, we’ll leave. Deal?”I wanted to scream ‘Hell No!’ and run in the opposite direction, but I knew that wasn’t being fair. Natalie was trying her best with me, and so it was only fair that I did the same.“An hour?” I repeated, just to make sure.“Yes, an hour,” she replied.“Ok, it’s a deal,” I said, holding out my hand for her to shake.Natalie broke out into a grin and shook my hand before linking her arm with mine.I took a deep breath as we enter

Nathan I could feel Percy’s eyes glaring at me as I drove back to the hotel we were staying in. I kept my scowl fixed on the road ahead of me. After several minutes of silence, Percy finally spoke. “So are you going to tell me what that was all about then?” he asked. “That was about me being pissed off at having to go and get your sorry ass out of trouble...again!” “Again? That was the first time in about 2 months!” Percy argued back. I laughed, but it was full of sarcasm. “You say that like it’s a good thing. Never would be a good thing!” “And it’s not like I was getting in trouble. It was just a party.” “Yes, a college party! And you’re just 16!” I shot back. Percy had been trouble ever since he turned 14. He was your basic rebel. Always looking to break the rules, always looking to be different from everyone else. On the whole it didn’t bother me. Only when I got dragged in to help did it start to grate a bit. He also looked older than 16, and that didn’t help. It meant th

ColeSomeone was after me. It was dark so I couldn’t see.“Oh Coley boy, where are you?!” they taunted in the darkness.I stumbled around, holding my hands out to feel something, anything. I found a wall, and followed it until I got the the edge. It turned 90 degrees to the right and then I was stood in a corridor. The corridor at my school.“Cole! Come out, come out wherever you are!” came the voice again. Only this time I knew who it was. It was Keith Middleton. Homophobe and bully of the worst kind.I felt my knees start to tremble as I ran down the corridor, frantically trying the door handles to each of the classrooms.Locked.Locked.Locked.“Come on,” I willed, as I tried the last one.The door opened and I felt relief wash over me as I ran in.I glanced round the room and instantly froze on the spot.The classroom was full of cages, and in each of the cages was a rabbit, all with their eyes staring right at me.I felt a shiver travel up my body and was about to bolt back

JoelI liked him instantly.He was cute as well.But he gave off an “I’m taken” vibe.I smiled to myself as I headed towards the address written on the scrap of paper in my pocket.I hoped I would meet him again sometime.I strode with purpose to the street I had already passed by several times over the last week. I was going to do it this time though. There was no turning back.I walked up the street looking at all the doors and the numbers on them until I stopped outside number 15. I pulled the piece of paper out of my pocket just to double check. I don’t know why as the address had been engraved into my memory for the last 18 months.I looked at the small cottage terrace in front of me. It was what people would probably call ‘quaint’. It looked small but pretty. There were sky blue shutters pinned back next to the small windows and the royal blue door was situated under a small porch with a pitched roof.The garden in front of the property was small but tidy, with some ceramic

ColeA ‘Sold’ sign had appeared outside Highfield Hall less than a week after I had nearly been caught trespassing, and then just a couple of weeks later it became alive with a swarm of activity.There were diggers and bulldozers, cranes and cement mixers, and lots of other machinery that I didn’t even know the name of.It broke my heart a little to see my peaceful haven being so disrupted.I peered daily over the wall, to see what they were doing, but I never ventured inside.As time passed, the warning my dad gave me seemed to diminish in significance, as many threats from parents do, but I knew I would have to have a death wish to go into the grounds while there was so much work going on.Two months later, and most of the external work on the Hall had been completed, and they were now working on the inside.The heavy machinery had gone, and in its place was a renovated building that had been brought back to life, back to its former glory.As much as I resented the intrusion, I coul

Nathan“FUCK IT!” I roared, while smashing the shit out of an old wooden dining chair.“Oh, I hope that wasn’t an antique,” came an annoyingly prissy voice from behind me.“I hope it fucking was,” I growled back.I looked over at Ronan and shot him my best warning glare.“Now, now, my little brooding beast, you know that ‘this’” he said waving his arms towards me, with his nose in the air, “is not my, nor that chair’s fault.”“Then who’s fucking fault is it then? Because I’m just looking to smash someone’s face in right now.”“Then go find a mirror you dumb prick!” Ronan snapped back, clearly losing patience with my insolent behaviour.I couldn’t trust my mouth or my fists, so I stormed straight out of the room, bumping Ronan’s shoulder on the way out.I kept going at a military pace until I was deep in the woods, then I changed into my wolf and ran. I knew I couldn’t run far like this in broad daylight, so I ran fast and hard, pounding out my frustration in a huge burst of adrenalin

Cole“What’s for tea Dad?” I asked, after my stomach had growled for like the fiftieth time.“Oh, did I not say?” he replied, “Miranda’s coming over with takeout. I told her to get you a Jalfrezi, is that ok?”“Oh, great!” I said enthusiastically. Who doesn’’t love a takeaway curry?“Oh, and Miranda’s son is also coming.”I frowned while trying to remember if I had ever heard of their being a son. Nope, I was pretty sure I hadn’t heard him mentioned before.“She has a son?” I asked.“Yes, he lived with his dad, but please don’t mention anything about it will you?”“I’m not stupid!” I reminded my dad. It wasn’t so much that I wasn’t stupid, more that I would avoid any socially awkward conversations at all cost.Even if he did live with his dad, I still found it odd that he had never come up in conversation before.“How old is he?” I asked.“Erm, about your age I think, or maybe a little older.”“Have you met him before?” I asked.“Yes, briefly, he’s going to be working on one of m

EmilyCole was avoiding me.He somehow managed to completely disappear on Saturday, despite me spending the best part of an hour looking for him.I had a sneaky feeling Annabell was helping him, as I saw her a couple of times with a mischievous grin on her face as she watched me walk by.From the little I had seen of him though, he looked like he was doing better. The black circles under his eyes had gone, and his smile looked real instead of forced, like it was last week.I just hoped that he was finally moving on.It wasn’t until Thursday that I realised I was missing something, when Casper asked,“How was Cole on Saturday?”I found the question odd, as Casper made it clear he didn’t want to be involved when I asked him to speak to Nathan last week.Casper was not one to pry into other people’s business. He was a very private person himself and so he didn’t enjoy those sort of conversations, and avoided them at all costs.“He was doing better, why do you ask?” I said, carefully ob

NathanI ran down the stairs taking two at a time.It wasn’t that I was in a rush, it was just that I felt like I had so much energy to burn.I rounded the corner and nearly bumped straight into Emily.“Woah there tiger!” she said, holding her arms up in anticipation of an impact.I managed to holt just centimeters away from her hands.“Oops, sorry,” I said with a smile before stepping to the side to go around her.“Hang on a second,” she said, and I turned back to see a confused frown on her face.I raised my eyebrows slightly waiting for her to continue.She walked over and paced around me in a full circle, her eyes roving over me as if she was trying to work something out.I just watched her in amusement.“What’s got you in such a good mood?” she said, stopping in front of me, her head tipped slightly to one side.“The sun is shining, it’s a beautiful day, why wouldn’t I be in a good mood?” I replied, as I again stepped around her and headed into the kitchen to grab something to ea

ColeI made my way slowly to Highfield Hall. It had been 8 weeks since I had seen Nathan.I thought that over time, the pain of the rejection would go away, that it would hurt less. I was wrong. Every Saturday it seemed to be getting harder and harder to motivate myself to walk the short distance to the Hall.Sure, once I was there, I usually managed to lose myself in what I was there to do. But just going to the place, physically putting one foot in front of the other to go to the place that I first saw Nathan required so much effort that once I got there I was already exhausted.It didn’t help that I hadn’t slept properly in weeks.I walked in through the front gate, something I still managed to chuckle about, despite my mood, and walked over to where I saw James and Emily looking over our latest plans.“Hey Cole, how’s thi….woah you look rough, are you feeling ok?” Emily said, coming over to me and giving me the once over, before settling for looking directly into my eyes.“I’m

NathanIt had been exactly 6 weeks since I’d seen Cole. 6 long torturous weeks.It was Saturday again which meant only one thing. Cole would be coming to Highfield Hall later today.I hated Saturdays. I hated them so much. I basically spent the whole day pacing around my room, desperate to go out, desperate to be anywhere but staring at these four walls.But I couldn’t. Because I didn’t trust myself not to sneak a peek at him. You know, just to see if he was alright.But of course he was alright. There was barely a day that went by without someone mentioning his name. You see he turned out to be a bit of a whizz at this ecology stuff, and well, he sort of became James the gardener’s right hand man. And of course Annabell just worshiped the ground he walked on. Every sentence she said seemed to start with, ‘do you know what Cole said….’ or ‘do you know what me and Cole did…..’”It was torture. Pure torture. And to make it worse, I think they knew exactly what they were doing
The Alpha's Slave Mate Chapter 48
ColeI felt…….I don’t know.I suppose the only way to describe it would be numb.Did that really just happen? There was so much to think about that I didn't know what to start with.Maybe I should start with the fact that there are such things as werewolves!!That was…..amazing. I probably should be freaking out about that, but to be honest it was the only thing about tonight that made me feel in the least bit happy.For one, it made me realise that I wasn’t going mad. I knew there was something up with those dogs at the Hall, and I knew that I’d seen something odd when Percy bit that guy.But knowing that, knowing that they were werewolves made them…..well it made them less scary.I know that sounds stupid, but it really wasn’t in my mind. It made them different. It made them secretive, and less sure around people. It made them hide from the spotlight, and hide from being who they really wanted to be. It made them…..human?It made them more like me.I could feel the damp of t

NathanI banged angrily on the horn on my steering wheel.“FUCKING MOVE!!” I shouted at the taxi that had just decided to stop in the middle of the road.Some drunken tart with a skirt up her arse and heels the size of tower blocks tottered over to the taxi, throwing a middle finger in my direction before getting in.I drew in a deep breath through my nose. I couldn’t lose my temper. It might cause me to be delayed further.I still couldn’t believe it took me so long to see the text from Cole. I always had my phone on me, yet tonight for some reason i’d left it in my bedroom.On the one night he needed me.As I drove like a maniac down the road I tried to rationalise with my thoughtsWhat if he’s badly hurt?That’s unlikely. He did manage to send a text.Yes but what if something happened after he sent that text, afterall, it took you long enough to read it.He’s bound to be fine. And then I can yell at him for texting me when I specifically told him to only text about the project

ColeOne second Percy was next to me, the next he was gone, and the only clue I had as to where he had gone were the screams now coming from behind me.I slowly turned round and gaped at what I saw. In just a few seconds the whole room seemed to be full of brawling bodies. I saw fists flying, and heard glass smashing, and everywhere I looked I could see bruises and cuts appearing on people’s faces.I wanted to run. I needed to run. But something kept me rooted to the spot. I needed to know that Natalie and Percy were alright.I couldn’t see either of them in the chaos in front of me, but I knew I would have to move if I wanted to find them.Slowly I edged my way into the mass of bodies. Ducking a flying chair and leaping over a pair wrestling on the floor, I eventually spotted Natalie cowering behind an armchair.I quickly dove behind the chair next to her.“Come one, we need to get out of here,” I said.I turned to look at Natalie and I could see the tears beginning to fall down

Cole“P to the A to the R T Y - It’s PARTY TIME! Whoop Whooop!”I swear there was something medically wrong with her sometimes.“My god girl, you’ve not even had a drink yet!” I said to Natalie as we walked up the street where the party was being held.“That’s what you think,” she said with an overly exaggerated wink.“Oh man, I’m going to be carrying you out of here tonight, aren’t I?” I said with a groan.“Hey, just think of it as payback for last time,” she said with a mischievous glint in her eye.Ah, I guess she had a point there.I looked up at the house that was now infront of us. It was a large detached stone house, with a huge drive, lined by immaculately pruned conifer trees. I could never quite get my head around how people managed to have parties in homes like these. Where were the parents? Surely they couldn’t know what was going on. The damage alone from a party like this would probably cost hundreds if not thousands to put right.As if someone could read my mind, th

NathanI didn’t want to be here. Every fibre of my being was screaming at me to leave.Well, actually, that wasn’t quite true. My heart was screaming for me to stay, but every other part of me just wanted to get as far away as possible.I hated Ronan and his big idea. I knew Cole would be here. I just knew it. Why wouldn’t he listen to me?!The moment I entered into the lecture theatre I could sense him in the room. And before long, I caught his scent. That was the thing about mates. You became highly attuned to their scent meaning you could pick it out easily among a group of people, and from a distance too.God he smelled good. Like the forest just after a heavy downpour.I forced myself to breathe through my mouth to not be drawn in by it any further.I needed to look at the silver lining here. Ronan had said that if Cole got involved, I could pass the project onto someone else. And it’s not like I wanted to do this in the first place. Why would I want to have to make conve
