All Chapters of Alpha's Hidden Mate: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Author's point of view... Scarlett clenched her jaw and dug her fingers into her palm. Closing her eyes, she fought for any little patience that was left in her. "Listen," she began, "You protected me and I helped you. We were partners in it, together. And now we are even..." She couldn't complete her words as he snapped her back. "Protected me? Helped me...!" he echoed, a bitter laugh escaping his lips. "You almost made my people die..." he grabbed her hand forcefully and dragged her towards the window, showing her the scene outside. His pack members were still settling down after the storm. Everyone was injured, everything was destroyed. There was chaos everywhere. "Look at what you have done" he hissed in her ears, leaning closer, practically hugging her from behind. "Did you see them...?" he added pointing his hands towards the young pack members at one of the corners then rested his palms on her shoulder and Scarlett felt uncomfortable. That was indeed her fault.

Author's point of view... The return journey began, and Adrian didn't hold back in making things difficult for Scarlett. He made her do everything that a slave does, including cooking his food washing his clothes for him helping him take a bath to walking behind his carriage instead of letting her in. He wanted her to suffer and to give in to him. He wanted her to beg for mercy. Though he pretended to be hateful, in reality, he never hated her. He could never bring himself to hate her. After three days of continued journey, they were about to reach the capital. While everyone was tired, Scarlett was on the verge of collapse as she followed Adrian's carriage on foot. All she could think of was the deal she made with him and the well-being of her sister who had already lost so much. Walking under that hot sun, Scarlett felt her eyes getting blurry with each step and her pace slowed down leaving her behind everyone beside her. Adrian observed her getting slower and slower

Adrian stiffened, his heart racing, but he couldn't bring himself to pull away. He felt a burning sensation in his entire body. All his blood rushed inside him. At first, he felt a jolt and wanted to pull himself away because he knew it wouldn't be easy for him to control himself but that feeling was overwhelming. Her body wrapped against him, made him paralysed for a moment. She was so soft and that fragrance of her made him quiver with desires. Though he knew it was inappropriate, he wanted to give in. Maybe just for once. And so, instead of breaking himself free from her embrace, he stayed still, listening to the steady rhythm of her breathing. As the morning light filtered through the tent, gently waking Scarlett up, she blinked her eyes many times before forcing them to open. Despite the tiredness and pains all over her body due to the exhaustion from the day before, she felt comfortable after a very good sleep. Wanting more of the comfort she was in, she twisted sligh

Author's point of view... The caravan set out at dawn, the first light of day casting long shadows across the landscape. It was the third day and they were almost there. After the unplanned kiss they shared, Scarlett rode at the rear of the procession, keeping her distance from Adrian. He is dangerous and she is prone to avoid him as a plague. Though he invited her to travel with him, she opted to ride a horse alone instead. She couldn’t shake the lingering memory of their last encounter, his words and touch still vivid in her mind. "That freak...! Agh...! Why did he have to change his personality all of a sudden?" Scarlett let out a scream as she thought about Adrian's unexpected behaviour. It was so irritating. Scarlett felt that his anger was more convenient than his seductiveness. As they reached a small clearing, Adrian’s carriage slowed down, stopping right before Scarlett. It gave her chills as she anticipated something dangerous was on its way. And exactly h

Author's point of view... Scarlett gulped, her heart racing. Before she could protest any further, Adrian grabbed her hand and pulled her over to the bike. "No wait..." All her words stuck inside her throat when he pulled her closer. "You said you don't feel anything for me, didn't you? So I am sure you won't be bothered about riding the bike with me" Scarlett blushed both with fear and an unknown feeling. Sitting close to him...! She could feel her body temperature rising immediately. "Or if you do, you can tell me anytime. We can talk about that separately," Adrian added mockingly. Scarlett stared at him. If eyes could kill, Adrian might have fallen dead already. She shook her head desperately. "No need... I don't feel anything," She added, tilting her head away, anger evident in each of her words. Adrian chuckled satisfyingly. After all, he got what he actually wanted. He sat down and still gazing at her, held her hand and guided her onto his lap, positioning her so t
