All Chapters of The alpha's human mate: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

After my conversation with mom, I go back to my room and let my eyes scan myself up and down in the mirror. I think back to what Nick had said. ‘You’re not nearly pretty enough to have such a bad attitude.’ I look at my nose, that I had always considered to be too wide, my brows, too thick, my eyes, too wide-set. And I just hated how small they were when I smiled. I sigh and look away. As I look at my clothes, I realize I don’t know how I’m supposed to be dressing. I try to think back to what Simon had said to me. Instead of remembering the words he had spoken, I can’t help but picture him in my head: the way his eyes had lit up when they had first met mine, how he hadn’t taken them off of me until he had to leave. The tug in my stomach made itself heard again. I shake my head to get rid of the images and settle for jeans and a tank top under a clean hoodie, that I lay flat on my bed for when I have to get ready. ‘Why do I even care?’ I ask myself. ‘I shouldn

Sophie’s POVI stare at the GPS on my phone with wide eyes. How did I get so far out from the hotel? With a sigh, I pack up my stuff and start jogging. I would never make it back in time if I walked.Nothing is familiar to me on the way back until I get to where I originally wanted to practice boulder climbing. How did I not take notice to anything past that point?I finally make my way back to the hotel with only 35 minutes to spare. The lady at the desk makes a weird face when I walk in, which I can only assume is because I’m drenched in sweat from head to toe. I try to hide my blush and head straight into the shower.With no time to spare, I clean myself with the cheap hotel soaps, not wanting to waste time looking for mine. As I step out on the cold tile floor, I notice my light brown hair is almost the same color as Simon’s when they are wet.I thank my past self for planning out my outfit ahead of time and slip it on

As the wolf continues to approach me, I realize I’m almost at the table. The glint of a steak knife catches my eyes.“Stop,’’ I say firmly, standing up straight and taking a step closer to the table.The wolf growls louder, but slows down for a second, just enough time for me to grab the blade from the table and place it towards the animal. The large creature lets out a snarl, his glowing red eyes on the metal of my weapon.I try to think of any survival tip I know. The beast is getting closer and closer, and I’m running out of options... Its left ear shoots to the side at the sound of branches breaking. I turn my head hoping it’s not Simon so he stays safe.Another even larger wolf sprints out of the tree line and throws the first one to the ground. Shocked at how I haven’t died yet, I try to find a way out of the situation. My heart beats so loudly I can hear it.As I’m about to make a run for it, t

“It matters to me.’’Simon’s deep voice sends shivers down my spine. The image of Nick kissing the blonde girl flashes in my head and I can’t help the tears that start to roll down my cheeks.“What did he do?’’ he says in a rumbling tone, anger reflecting in his golden irises.I glance down at his lips, my throat so tight I don’t feel like I could say anything. Heat spreads through my body from the tug in my stomach when his eyes also meet my lips.“That fucking bastard.’’He uses his thumbs to wipe my tears, but I can’t take my eyes off of his lips. If Nick had traded me for someone else, why should I stop myself? ‘I have been wanting to kiss Simon for days now’, I realise how much I was denying it before.The thought of giving in to my desire starts a fire under my skin. Everything in me screams to lean in closer to him, so much so that my head almost

The wolf with the glowing red eyes walks out of the woods and continues to approach me. I realize I’m almost at the table. The glint of a steak knife catches my eyes.“Stop,’’ I say firmly, standing up straight and taking a step closer to the table.“Why?’’ The wolf answers back, startling me. “You are nothing to me but a way to get back at your Alpha.’’I freeze for a second, my hand inches away from the blade.“I don’t understand what you’re talking about. I don’t follow any Alpha.’’For some reason, my voice seems off-tone, as if I am no longer the one speaking. The wolf growls an
