All Chapters of The Alpha's Pet: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

ELARIAN“Mate!” My wolf said with a very bold and clear voice as I watched Aeros exit the bar and disappear from my view.I was surprised to hear that, and for a minute, I thought I hadn’t heard it clearly. But then it came again, and this time, there was no mistaking it. My wolf had just clearly told me that he was my mate, and there was no going back.Aeros, the cold Alpha who made me sign a contract to become his property, was my mate. The contract clearly stated that we were not to have any emotional ties, so this had only made the situation much more complicated.How was I supposed to tell a man who only wanted me for sex that he was my mate? That is, if he would even believe me.I had thought Corey was my mate, and with the kind of mating process wolves have, to have another mate after the first one is like nature’s way of giving you a second chance.It finally dawned on me that the reason I had been so drawn to him was because he was my mate. It now made sense—the deep feelings

ElarianNothing! I heard nothing from Aeros for the rest of the day. I was locked up in his room, and no one, not even the maid, came to check up on me. I knew there was a guard at the door, so I didn’t even think of stepping outside.As the hours passed, the suspicion grew, and the apprehension of what was to come kept me on the edge of the bed. If I had heard Aeros and Jonathan properly, Tyler was the guest downstairs with him, but for what reason?Why was the Alpha of the pack I had left behind here in Aeros’ pack? From what I had heard, Tyler and Aeros were not on very good terms.A loud bang suddenly interrupted my thoughts, and I jumped to my feet in a hurry. I rushed to the door and tried to open it, but it was still locked. I banged on the door and yelled as loud as I could for someone to open up, but there was no response.I paced the length of my room while nervously chewing on my nails, lips, and anything else I could find, but that didn’t help matters; instead, it made the

Elarian“Elarian,” Jonathan called out my name softly at the door, and I glanced up at him sharply. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t hear him open the door. The look on his face made me feel like something was wrong.As if the only reason he was standing in front of my door was because he had some bad news for me. But what could it be?“Aeros was involved in an accident,” he announced, and I didn’t respond or react immediately. I just stared back at him in shock.“What!”“I just got a call not too long ago. I guess he lost control of the wheel, but he’s with the healer as we speak, and she has assured me that he will be fine.”It took a few seconds for my brain to process what he had just said. “Can I see him?” I asked as I jumped out of bed and moved closer to him.“He’s unconscious, and the healer said he needs all the rest he can get.”“What happened? How did he leave the mansion without any form of—”“Things got out of control at the council meeting, and I wasn’t aware h

Aeros“Hey!” Jonathan snapped his fingers in front of me, jolting me out of my thoughts. “Whoa… you weren’t even listening to me. Is something wrong?” he asked as he shut the document we had been going through before I lost track of what he was explaining.“Yeah… uh… I’m good. You were saying we should reinforce the guards at the outskirts of our territory.” I tried to sound convincing enough, but he didn’t buy it.He raised a brow at me suspiciously.“No, that’s not what I said. I was showing you my ideas on the… you know what, never mind, just tell me what’s on your mind.”“There’s nothing, and I’m sorry. I just have a lot on my mind lately. Nothing serious, though.” I responded as I eased back into my seat.He sighed deeply. “It’s so difficult to try and talk to you at times. You shut me out, and I really don’t know how to deal with it anymore. Listen to me, Aeros, I know Blair would have loved to see you happy again. What happened was unfortunate, but you can’t let it make your li

AEROSIt had barely been a few hours since I left the house before I began to lose control of myself. The overwhelming urge to see her and claim her took me by surprise, and I had never felt anything like it before.I managed to pull through a few meetings, but on our way to the last one, something inside of me snapped. I had never felt anything like it before, and Xavier did not make things any easier.He was spiraling out of control, and I could feel it. He missed her and craved her presence so much that he became restless and unable to focus.“Turn the car around,” I suddenly ordered the guard behind the wheel.Jonathan, who was sitting beside me, shot me a look immediately. “Are you okay? Is something wrong?” he asked out of genuine concern.I didn’t respond to him though; I just shook my head and repeated the same order to the guard, who was sincerely confused and had no idea what to do, so he just brought the car to a halt.“What’s going on, Aeros? What do you mean by turning th
