All Chapters of The Dark Alpha's Secret mate : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

I watched as Alpha Knox spoke to people. He looked handsome and fitting in this environment. While I felt like a book in a wrong shelf. People kept coming up us. Prestigious people in the pack. I felt out of place. The women around him glared at me and ignored me like I was a piece of furniture. I watched Alpha Knox move with people. He didn't even know I was not by his side. I decided not to follow him. I wouldn't stray far though. At least no one here had red hair. I sat by and watched as people laughed and drank. In those pretentious voices. I hated it here. I wanted to leave. Suddenly something caught my eye. It was a young girl. She seemed to be the same age as me. She was following around an older man. I was about to wave her off as a girl who wanted to sleep around when I saw the resemblance between the two. That was her father. As they made their way across the hall. I overheard her words. “Dad, I don't like my mate,” she said, pouting. The older man chuckled. “

Hands behind my back, I paced to the ends of the palace. My mind was like that of a marketplace. For a weird reason, I felt guilty. Guilty for putting Nina in the dungeon. I still feel she deserved it for not listening to my words but my wolf thinks otherwise. "What have you done?!” My wolf questioned. “How could you put your mate in the deepest part of the dungeon? Did she kill anyone? What the hell was her crime? “ He growled. Then I replied. “How dare she leave the spot? How dare she go farther away from me? What if Ashira saw her? She might be dead by now.” My wolf glared at me, bearing his teeth at me. “ For what you have done, I will not be with you” “Well don't be” I replied. “ Who needs you anyway” Then I could feel him leaving. I scowled at the moon. This damned curse wants to make me soft. To make care. Who cares if she's my mate. I walked up to my room. As I passed the corner Nina would usually stay, I felt some sort of nostalgia. She would stay hunched over

I sprang up immediately to find out that it was a dream. My breath was ragged. I had sweat all over my body like I had been running a race. Nina has been shot. She died crying. Screaming . I snatched a robe and ran out. Taking the keys from one of my men, I ran to the dungeon. My heart was in my mouth, as I wonder the state she could be in. For first time in a long time, I was pretty scared. What if she died. On getting there, I took out a torchlight. I pointed it around the cell but I couldn’t find Nina. “Nina!” I growled. out her name but I got no response. My heart was beating at a very fast rate. What if she had died or something? I kept asking myself. I opened the door to the cell and came closer. That was when relief washed over me as I saw her curled up like a kitten, sleeping. I stopped to touch her. I found out that Nina was running at a very high temperature. “Your highness ! What Happened? You scared us?!” I turned to find Vok and madam Lafayette standing out

“Oh” I muttered, clutching the sheets to the chest. I stared down, unable to look home in the face. “Alpha Knox!” Immediately he heard his name, he walked out of the room, leaving me all by myself. I took that as an opportunity to look for my clothes. I searched for them on the floor and other places but all I could see was my scarf. I grabbed it immediately and began searching for the rest of my clothes. “Where could he have kept them?” I muttered as I stood. Standing this time in front of the mirror, I stared at my reflection. I had swollen eyes and plump lips. I didn’t have beautiful sleep hair. I used my scarf to tie my hair, literally covering all my hair. I did that because I didn’t like the looks people gave me for the color. It was white, unlike that of girls my age. After I had tied my hair, I looked up to find someone in the mirror. I opened my mouth in horror. “Oh I’m sorry” I muttered as I immediately moved aside while I bent my head a little. I wondered how long he

What? What was happening? How could this be? Who could have been hurt? I looked him over as I tried to ascertain wherever he may be hurt. “Your highness what happened. Come—” “ Did you for a moment think that I was crying?” He smirked.I froze. Those weren't tears? Oh this cocky bastard. Knox released my hands and wiped his eyes clean. I watched his long fingers swipe at all. Parts of his face. When he looked at me again, my heart raced. He stared into my eyes and moved closer, thereby closing the gap between us. What was he doing? My heart pounded. Knox went ahead to put on the light behind and I flinched as soon as the light came on. “There's your sunlight,” he muttered . “ Don't open the curtains” I quickly nodded. “ Congratulations on getting into my room but not my life …mate” Knox said emphasis on the last word. He stared at me and I evaded his gaze. Looking everywhere but at his face. “You are nervous,” Knox leaned in. I fought keeping my focus on something. Anyth
