All Chapters of The Alpha’s Accidental Mate : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

RayneI can’t say that things have gotten any better. With Denise gone, I’m totally lost. I’ve been informed by a maid that I’ll be moving to the new room in a day. So, tomorrow. Tomorrow I’ll say goodbye to this room and move to the lower quarters of the House. I can’t say I’ll miss this room especially. It’s beautiful, there’s no denying it, but I’m just grateful for having a room to myself. Any room, be it luxurious or normal. Privacy is something I never had. I always shared a room. The only thing I didn’t share were clothes. I haven’t left the room for fear of coming across Max. I can’t get what happened out of my head. It was so random and…strange. I can’t seem to stop thinking about him and how much I wanted him to touch me. It makes my cheeks grow hot with shame. I never thought I’d want him to touch me. I never looked at him that way before. I didn’t know what desire was until he kissed me. I try to search in deep inside me for an answer on how he feels. I want to know wh

Rayne I’m sitting before Max while he paces the floor in front of me. I keep my eyes on my lap and my hands by my sides. I try not to portray any emotion. He asks again, “So he wanted you to go with him? Where? Why?”“I don’t know,” I lie. There is no way I’m going to tell him that he said Denise sent him and that the reason why he wants to take me out of here is because I’ll be killed when the bond starves. Frankly, I don’t know if I can believe this. Or even if I do. It could be that he lied to me in order to get me to follow him. Denise would have told me if Max planned to kill me.She wouldn’t have waited to then send a messenger. Still, there are many questions that are unanswered, and if I’m being honest with myself, I haven’t completely labeled everything he said as a lie. Why should I doubt that I won’t be killed? It’s not a notion that can be easily discarded. “This is absurd,” he says, mostly to himself. He’s in a black mood, and I feel it all over me, suffocating me.

RayneI close the window once the air gets a little too crisp and move closer to my bed.I lie down, exhaustion creeping deep into my bones. I’m tired of thinking and always wondering what happens next. I wish I had answers. I wish I didn’t have to be this afraid. I think back to the man I spoke to this afternoon. Should I believe everything he said? The day after the mating ceremony, Denise told me that the GrayLeaf pack wanted revenge for what happened. What if that man lied to me and used Denise’s name to lure me out? Albert wasn’t mean to me but that didn’t mean it wasn’t all a strategy to get me to relax and believe that everything was fine. Too much power was involved. Some people lost many opportunities because of me. Why shouldn’t they be angry?I had to be alert for everything and anything. The Alpha said I was forbidden from going to the garden and it upset me, but maybe it wasn’t such a bad thing. What if he had taken me? What if there were more of them? I wouldn’t be able

MaxOne of the Gammas opens the dungeon gates for me and I make my way inside. I walk farther and ignore the call of the prisoners from the other cells. I came here for one purpose and one purpose only; I want to know what that man intended to do with Rayne. Who sent him? Where did he come from? If Denise is truly behind her, I’ll chase her down and throw her in here, which is something I should have done a long time ago. The guards have prepared everything for my arrival. The prisoner is waiting inside an empty cell that has been cleaned out except for two chairs, one that the prisoner is occupying and the other that is for me. He looks at me with hard eyes as I approach, with hatred in his eyes. I meet his gaze steadily and sit down. He’s bound to the chair but he isn’t gagged. This is why he moves forward and spits at my feet.“Bastard,” he says venomously. “You and your father are bastards and cowards! Cowards! You should be dead for what you did to us!”I tilt my head slightly

RayneMax is still standing by the window. It's been quiet after he said I would believe it even if he told me, but honestly, this has made me more curious. What could she have done? I keep thinking and thinking and all that comes to mind are terrible things. Something that could make him hate her so intensely can only be bad. Unforgivable. But why then did he keep her working here? Why didn't he fire her as soon as he became Alpha? This is the part that makes no sense whatsoever. I don't know why I say it. Maybe it's because he's still in my room for some reason, which means he must have something to say. Or maybe it's because of the Moon's pull. Or maybe it's just the thrill of having him standing so close to me. I say, "I can keep a secret."A small and sad smile graces his lips. He turns to look at me and the expression on his face makes my heart skip a beat. He's a different person when he's in this kind of mood. The man who stormed into my room the day after the ceremony to s
