Semua Bab The Alpha's Human Mate : Bab 11 - Bab 20

AZALEA I felt so bad as I watched August heartbroken and betrayed by my decision to choose his brother over him.I wish there was a way I could go to him and tell him that I never meant those words. I wish I could go up to him and tell him that I had only taken that decision for us.“You heard her. What are you still waiting for? Leave my pack this minute!” Gray yelled at him and his guards didn't hesitate to grab him and throw him out of the packhouse. “Come with me, sweetheart.” He said as soon as August was completely out of sight, stretching his hand to hold me.He gripped my wrist and led me into the manor, his face a beam of smiles. When we had finally settled in his room, he had his maids prepare our lunch while we discussed in the comfort of his room.“You see… I still can't believe you actually chose me over him. Why did you suddenly change your mind? I thought you always loved him.” He asked, throwing endless glances my way.I returned his smile, staring right into his eyes

~AZALEA~“I suppose you are the desperate one the King has made his mate. And I also heard that you're human, interesting.” The stranger said boldly, slipping her hand into her hair and brushing it backwards.I could sense threat, danger. This woman wasn't smiling. She looked mean like there was something I might have done to her in the past, but frankly, I couldn't even recognize who she was.I couldn't remember having anything to do with her in my entire life. Confusion etched through my veins, and I was still trying so hard to figure out who she was and why she was sizing me up in that manner.I maintained my composure, standing firm and giving her no reason to see through my confusion. “Who are you?” I asked.“You really want to know who I am, huh.” She grinned from ear to ear, her presence taking on an intimidating aura.If a stranger walked in and saw the both of us together, they would surely mistake her for my boss who possibly even owned the house, because of how confident s

~AZALEA~I could feel it in his gaze—the worry stretching through those eyes. He looked worn out, like he had just completed a marathon race.I waited patiently for his words, staring into his eyes like a lost lamb waiting to meet its owner. Then he cleared his throat, breaking the choking silence.“I'm sincerely getting worried about all the troubles looming over this pack.” He said, sighing deeply. His eyes wandered afar off, like he was lost in a trance.He remained still, gazing into thin air and saying nothing else. He held my hands for comfort, and at that instance, his gaze returned to me.I nodded, encouraging him to go ahead with what he had to say. “Azalea, I seriously do not want to bother you with the pack's troubles. It is more than you can control.”“And who says you are bothering me, August? This is where I belong right? Don't I deserve to know what happens around and outside here?” I asked.For a moment, I just stared at him, my heartbeat accelerating as I studied hi

~AZALEA~“You are going nowhere, Azalea. Step back!” He yelled, his hand clutched firmly around my neck. I gasped for air, screaming endlessly for help but none came. He eventually left me, but not before he had made sure that the gates were locked and out of my reach.“Last I remember, you are still my mate. You are mine and nothing or no one can stop that!”“You already have Zoe, of what use am I to you?” I asked, tears already filling the brim of my eyelids. He grabbed my wrists firmly, and I struggled to get out of his grip, but all efforts seemed futile. “Let me go! I no longer want to be with you.”“In your wildest dreams, sweetheart.” His loud voice filled the air. Merely staring at him, I couldn't help but shudder in fear. Everything seemed to have changed about him. He was no longer the sweet Alpha I used to know and love back in the days.He looked more like a stranger to me right now—someone I couldn't even tell what his next move would be.His eyes narrowed and he furrowe

~AZALEA~My eyes traveled from where Gray was, then to August, my heart racing with fear. How was I supposed to explain to them that he was one of my father's workers? They would surely rip me apart for being related to their killers.I gulped hard, noticing August's hands clenched into fists. I was aware of the fact that he now despised me badly, following Zoe's reappearance into his life.I lowered my head and took a second glance at the corpse, terror washing over me. Realizing the kind of trouble I would put myself into if I attested to the fact that I knew who this man was, I came to the conclusion that I would deny him.That seemed to be the only way out of this looming trouble. There was no way they would find out if I lied to them, right?“I don't know who this is.” I said, masking my initial fear with boldness.August exchanged puzzled glances with Gray, their faces shone with disbelief.Doubt was written all over August's face, but he chose not to go further with the questio
