Alpha's Mate Chapter 23
Alpha Axel's POVAs I decided to go hunting alone, I walked down the hall, my mind preoccupied with thoughts of the day's pursuits. Suddenly, I saw the queen emerging from her room. My heart raced as I tried to turn back, but it was too late. She had already spotted me."Ah, there you are," she said, her voice commanding. "Come back here, I insist. Join me for breakfast."I hesitated, knowing the implications of being alone with the queen, but her gaze brooked no argument. "I... I suppose I could join you," I replied, my voice uncertain.As we sat in the dining hall, Athena entered, apologizing for her lateness. I averted my eyes, unable to meet hers after what had transpired between us the night before. She greeted me, and I grumbled in response."Is everything alright?" Athena asked, concern evident in her voice. "Do you need to talk about anything?"I knew exactly what she was referring to, but I couldn't let the queen catch wind of the fact that I had spent the night with Athena.

You've been through a lot."I nodded and took a seat at the kitchen table, my gaze turning towards Hilary and Hailey's activities.

ALPHA AXEL'S POVAs I approached my car, ready to head out, a sinking feeling washed over me. I realized I had left my phone behind. I can be so absent minded sometimes. Sighing, I turned around and walked back into the house to retrieve it.As I entered my room, I froze in my tracks. There, standing by the window, was Athena, holding my phone in her hands. Confusion and anger merged within me, and I couldn't help but blurt out, "What are you doing in my room?"Athena's brown eyes widened, and she began to stammer, clearly caught off guard by my sudden arrival. "I... I didn't mean to intrude. I just found your phone here, and I was about to return it."My frustration intensified. I held out my hand, demanding, "Why are you with my phone then?"Athena took a step back, seemingly flustered. "I... I was just... I mean, I saw that Rachel had been trying to reach her for days."My heart quickened its pace. Rachel, whom I had been desperately trying to get in touch with. My mind raced with

Alpha Axel's POVI woke up with a pounding headache, my mouth dry and aching. The room was dimly lit, the curtains drawn shut. It had been two weeks since I last saw Rachael. Two weeks of unanswered calls and unanswered prayers. I had been drowning my sorrows in alcohol, my only companion in this lonely room.As I lay there, contemplating the meaninglessness of it all, a sudden burst of sunlight pierced the darkness and assaulted my eyes. I groaned and turned my face away, shielding my eyes from the intrusive brightness. I heard a rustling sound and a soft voice, which made me reluctantly open my eyes.There, standing by the window, was the queen herself. The queen, with her regal poise and a warm smile. She had always been supportive of me, reminding me of my responsibilities as an Alpha. She was the reason I had a pack to care for, to lead and protect. But lately, I had lost sight of that, lost in my own despair."Alpha," she said gently, her voice carrying the weight of concern. "

The pain in my chest was unbearable, a constant ache that refused to subside.Unable to bear the suffocating atmosphere any longer, I decided to take a walk. Perhaps the cool night air would clear my head, even if just for a moment.

I reached for my phone and dialed her number, hoping she would pick up this time.But the call wouldn't connect. Frustration welled up inside me, adding to the already overwhelming guilt.
