All Chapters of Alpha of Alphas - The Lycan's Impossible Mate: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

Kane fell asleep less than an hour after we ate dinner. It was frustrating trying to get him to eat. He pushed the food around his plate, and when I finally convinced him to take a bite, he gagged, his lips pulling downwards in disgust, and tried to push the food away. “Tastes like dust.” “I know, but you have to eat it anyway. Nothing will taste good for a while.” Sitting there, watching him force the food down his gullet, made me nauseous with concern. He’s bound and determined to stay dead inside until after his father’s execution, the consequences be damned. I stand by the side of our bed, looking down at my mate. The gentle rise and fall of his chest, his relaxed and calm face – I can almost believe that he’s all right, and not turning into an emotionless monster -- which is exactly what he’ll become in the end. I’ve seen it before. Even with protection, the soul reapers eat bits of your soul away, and if you go deep enough, and often enough, it becomes nearly impossible to r

Kane’s POV “What do I need to do?” I ask, tucking stray strands of curls behind Willow’s ear. “Is there some kind of magic or something you need to use on me?” “No.” She shifts on my lap and manoeuvres herself around, throwing a leg on either side of me. Wrapping her arms around my neck, she presses her soft, warm body tightly against mine. Dario purrs happily and finally settles down. “What are you doing?” “Nothing,” she answers me, but she has the most lascivious grin on her face, and her eyes sparkle naughtily into mine. “You just need to be with the ones you love, allow us to love you.” Her delicious lips embrace mine, stealing the last little vestiges of reservations I had left. It’s just a flicker of lust followed by a tiny ripple of love, but it’s enough to remind me that I have to fight for it. Fight for her and Adare, because if I don’t, I’ll lose them – one way or the other, they will disappear from my life. “The negative emotions are always the first ones to come back,

I rush past Phillip into the bedroom to check on Adare. He’s still asleep, probably didn’t even notice that we were gone. “Twenty minutes on the dot,” I hear Phillip say to Kane. “Yeah, she’s pretty good that way.” I can hear the smile in my mate’s voice. I hang around the bedroom for a few minutes, waiting for Adare to wake up to nurse, but he doesn’t stir. I’m debating whether I should wake him to feed him when Kane softly calls to me. I take one last look at the sleeping baby and join Kane in the living room. “Is the pup okay?” “Yes,” I answer. “But he should be waking up to nurse any moment now.” Kane looks me up and down, his bright blue eyes swirling with nothing but lust. The air is thick and heavy with his scent. I’m at once excited and terrified. He grabs my wrist and roughly pulls me against him, my body connecting to his with a mind-bending thud. Electricity and red-hot desire courses through me, makes me breathless with the need for him. Still staring at me, he lift

Kane's POV The flat is dark, empty, and quiet. It’s been a while since I came home to an empty apartment, and it grinds my nerves. “Willow?” I call, even though I know she’s not here – at least it breaks the silence. I go to our empty bedroom. The place smells like my mate, clean linens, disinfectants, and baby. It’s oddly comforting. I kick off my shoes and carelessly throw them into the closet, followed by my tie. On my socks, I undo the top button of my shirt and go back to the living room, taking the good whiskey out of the liquor cabinet. If I didn’t have a pup in the house, I’d get hammered tonight. All my Alphas reported weird human behaviour – some brushed it off as “just humans being humans,” and didn’t investigate, but when I asked them about it, they could at least give me a verbal report. By the time my new council gathered, I already had our first point of order on the agenda. “Kane?” Glenn says through our mind link, interrupting my thoughts. I scrunch up my face and

I’m aware that Phillip leaves to fetch his fellows, but I don’t move. I keep playing with Adare, pretending that I didn’t just hear everything the two men discussed. “Willow?” Kane asks. “You’re upset.”“A little, yeah.”“It’s just a bit of hair…and a few drops of blood.”I scoff at him, as if I care about my hair and blood. Finally, I look up from my baby to glare at my mate. “They’ll be forced to protect me, right? With their lives?”“Yes.”“I don’t like it.”“They would also be unable to betray you, won’t be able to give our enemy any information about you...or Adare for that matter.”“Then why do you need guards you trust? Just find anyone and make them swear the oath.”Kane smiles indulgently. “Because then it’s meaningless. They must take the oath willingly, otherwise, it doesn’t work as well as it should.”“I don’t want people to die for me.”He sighs and rapidly brushes his hands up and down his face. “We’ve been over this a hundred times, Willow.”Yes, we have, but that doesn
