All Chapters of The Alpha’s Hidden Mate : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

ALEXIA I cleared my throat, because the last thing I wanted was to be his partner so what better way to get out of it by pretending not to have heard him? I casually look around the class, my gaze resting on the girl sitting a few seats away from me. I stood up to approach her when firm fingers crawled around my wrist, stopping me from leaving. As if knowing my intention and without even looking at me, he jerked me down to my seat. “I wasn’t asking.” He stated, letting go off my wrist while glaring at me. “I don’t want to be your partner.” I blurted out, meeting his glare with one of my own. “This project will be covering half of my semester’s grades, I want someone who will put as much effort as it takes.” His lips stretched into a smirk that had me staring at him, feeling hot and flustered by his presence, I squirmed in my seat. “Too bad, what you think doesn’t matter Jackson.” “Sorry, am I interrupting?” I jerked backward, startled when the teacher’s sharp voice cut into our

ALEXIA Raven was the first person I started looking for when I arrived at school the following morning, not that I have any other friend to look for anyone. After the way I spoke to her yesterday when all she was trying to do was help me, I could have handled the situation better than that. I stopped by my locker, a small part of me hoping whoever took my project put it back after experiencing some miraculous change of heart. Opening my locker, I was trifling with disappointment when there was no sign of an egg there. I sensed someone moving up behind me and that caused me to turn around sharply. I felt myself relaxed when the person turned out to be Raven. “Hi!” I said, a bit awkwardly since I wasn’t sure if she was mad at me or something. “I’m sorry for the way I spoke to you yesterday, all you were trying to do was help and I was being difficult.” I added the apology while I held my breath and waited for her to respond. “I understand, I’m glad you’re in a much better mood today

ALEXIA I hurried out of the classroom after school dismissal, an incoming text message from my phone made me stop abruptly in my tracks. A text from Raven telling me she’s waiting for me at the parking lot and another one from my Mom, letting me know she might not be home until later. Her own text showed it was sent hours ago, meaning it probably came in while I was at the cafeteria or in class. Putting my phone back inside my backpack, I was on the verge of leaving but was forced to a stop as Izzie appeared in front of me. I frowned at her, wondering what the hell she wanted while also taking note of the fact that she wasn’t alone. I flinched when she stretched out her hand, but then I noticed she was gesturing towards my backpack. I don’t know but things would be so much easier if she always started with words. “Do you mind?” I hissed, frowning at her. “I’m here to carry your things, ‘Killian said, I have to earn your forgiveness’ so if you want me to get out of your hair then a

ALEXIA Shattering the moment between us, he threw his head back and laughed. A rich, deep sound coming from deep within his chest. Being under the effect of his laughter, a smile spread across my face but then a sharp knock on the door put a temporary end to the moment. While still staring at me, he breaks away to answer the door and I stood there mentally scolding myself for my inability to control my emotions where he was concerned. I couldn’t help it, it‘s like each time I’m near him, there’s a universal force that seems to push those feelings past my defenses to the surface. “Here are the nesting materials you ordered us to get you Alpha.” I blinked out of my thoughts on hearing the servant’s statement. Well, guess someone cared more than they were letting me believe, I thought looking directly at Killian as the servants set the items down. Once they left, and with a startling realization that I have no idea how to build a freaking nest! “We should eat.” He abruptly announced

ALEXIA I felt powerless against them as they dragged me into the toilet but before they had the chance to carry out their threats, the bell rang, causing them to pause and looked at Izzie for directions on what to do next. From the dynamics of the group, I could tell she was their leader and they were her minions and unless they wanted to catch bullying someone…well in this case since the bullied one happens to be a human, I doubt anyone was going to bait an eye. “Let her go.” She ordered, her face set angrily at me. “Saved by the bell but next time you won’t be so fucking lucky! Consider what happened as a warning, a tip of the ice-berg because I’ll make life a living hell for you, if you don’t go ahead and tell Killian you’ve granted me your useless forgiveness.” I stared at her as water dripped from my hair down to my face, which resulted in me shivering from coldness. I said nothing, watching them leave one after the other, casually talking about what they were going to have f
