All Chapters of My Unexpected Mate: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Gabriel’s POVI couldn’t breathe. The only thing I could feel was my heart beating. It felt like it was going to beat its way out of my chest.I don’t know how long I had been staring at my laptop screen. I don’t know what I was waiting for. Maybe for the video to start again and for my grandma to say she was kidding.Pure rage brought me back from the numbness. I wanted to kill. I needed to kill. I threw my laptop into a wall and screamed. Next thing I know I was on my feet breaking every piece of fucking furniture in my living room. The only thing I felt was rage.My knuckles were bleeding profusely, and I had a cut on my cheek from the broken glass when Nick stopped me.“Gabriel, stop!” he screamed at me and grabbed my hands, pulling me towards him and hugging me.I never cry. I never let anyone hug me. But I let Nick hug me. And I cried. Rage was mixing with sadness, and I couldn’t stop crying.“I am so sorry, Gabe,” Nick said quietly. “I am so sorry, man.”After a while, I stoppe

Gabriel’s POVI was finally able to relax now that Aria said she would move to my house. Knowing she will be near me all the time gave me a warm and peaceful feeling.I could tell Nick was happy as well. He was smiling so wide I thought his mouth was going to rip. I chuckled at his expression.The more I thought about it, the more this mate thing annoyed me. I just found my sister and now I will have to compete for her attention once Nick told her. I knew it was stupid, but I couldn’t escape these feelings. I wanted to spend time with her. Get to know her. But I knew how possessive Nick can be, and he will make it difficult. Because he wanted the same thing. I was already pissed at Nick, but he was my friend and I wanted him to be happy. And Aria made him happy. I will just have to find a way to keep my own possessiveness in check.“How about we go to the living room and watch a movie?” Annie asked, interrupting my train of thought.“Sure,” I nodded, “but not some chick flick.”Annie

Gabriel’s POVI woke up around 10 am and the first thing I did was smile. It was the day my sister came home.I got up and went to the bathroom to do my morning business and to take a shower. I quickly got dressed and went downstairs to have a cup of coffee and eat something.My plan was to get to Annie’s house as quickly as possible. Maybe get them here before 6 pm.There was a knock on my door and Nick let himself in.“Hey, man.” he greeted me.“Morning,” I said, chewing on a sandwich as fast as I could.“Somebody is hungry,” he smirked and got himself a cup of coffee. “Did you have a girl here last night?”“No,” I frowned. “I just want to get to Annie’s house as fast as possible.”“You are going to freak her out and ruin this for both of us,” he said. “You said 6 pm. Give her until then.”I looked at him and frowned. I didn’t want to wait until then. How was he so calm?“What the hell am I supposed to do until then?” I asked him. “And how are you so calm? You should want her here e

Gabriel’s POVI was smiling like an idiot, and I couldn’t remember the last time I was this happy.I pulled up my driveway and Nick and I helped the girls with their bags. We went upstairs and I showed the girls to their rooms while Nick went to get dinner his mom had made for us.“Which bags are yours?” I asked Aria.“That one,” she said and pointed to a black duffle bag.“You have only one?” I was confused.“Yeah, well, I lost all of my stuff in the fire,” she said with sadness in her voice.“Don’t worry,” I said and placed my hand on her shoulder. “We will replace everything.”She looked at me confused, but I didn’t give her space to ask me anything.“Unpack and then come downstairs,” I smiled and walked out the door.I went towards Annie’s room and saw her getting her clothes from her bags and folding them in the closet. She was excited and it made me happy. I knocked on the open door.She looked up at me and smiled. “Hey, Gabe.”“Is the closet big enough?” I teased her.“It will

Gabriel’s POVI woke up to the sound of knocking on my bedroom door.“What?” I grunted, not wanting to get up.“Get up, man,” I heard Nick’s voice. “We have to start searching.”I grunted again and sat up in my bed. We agreed to go to my grandma’s old study and our library and find everything we can about Victor and Cora. If he was politically active there should be some records about him. We have to start somewhere.“What time is it?” I asked and got up.“8:30 am.”“Too early,” I complained.He laughed. “Don’t be a pussy. Go do your morning stuff and I’ll see you at your grandma’s study. I’ll start looking.”I brushed my teeth and hopped in the shower. I put on a pair of sweats and a hoodie and went down to the kitchen.I made two cups of coffee and took them to the study.Nick already had two books in front of him.“Anything?” I asked and handed him his cup of coffee.“Nothing much,” he responded, not looking up from the book in front of him. “Go to the library and bring any books t
