Alpha’s Mate (Is This My Fate?) Chapter Seventeen
Selena pov*Two weeks later*Today was the day I had been dreaming of for years- the grand opening of my bakery shop. The anticipation of this day had filled me with an indescribable mix of nerves and excitement.I carefully pulled open the oven door, and a rush of warmth greeted me along with the tantalizing scent of the freshly baked pastries and cakes filling the air.Using an oven mitt, I carefully took out the trays containing the meat pie and sausage rolls along with the cakes consisting of vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate flavors placing them on the counter in the kitchen.The sight was mouthwatering, the golden brown crust of the meat pie and the sausage roll glistened with a hint of butter, while the cakes were perfectly risen and adorned looking all fluffy.Next, I turned my attention to the doughnuts and scotch eggs, frying them to a perfect golden brown. I added a finishing of whipped cream to the cake and a chocolate ganache on the donut making it look more enticing.On

Selena Pov"She'll regain consciousness any moment from now, let me know as soon as she wakes up", I heard a voice say.I slowly opened my eyes to find myself in a different environment. It took me a while to realize that I was lying on a hospital bed surrounded by the scent of antiseptic.I tried adjusting my eyes to the harsh fluorescent above casting a glow on my face. My eyes darted around the room, I noticed a nurse standing by my bedside and a doctor headed towards the door."Doctor! She's awake", the nurse called out to the doctor who was about to reach for the doorknob to make her way out of the room.The doctor halted and turned around making her way back towards my bedside with a smile across her as he approached me. She was dressed in a lab coat and a stethoscope dangling around her neck.I rubbed on my temple feeling a slight ache in my head as I struggled to recall how I ended up in the hospital. It slowly came back to me- I was about going home home with the Beta when I

Alpha Gabriel pov"So I think we should go with this plan. It's better than the previous plan and it's going to be more beneficial for the company", I explained pointing to the draft in the system. "Or do you have any objections to it?" I asked seeking for his input.I glanced up at Asher who was seated across from me with his legs crossed as usual, only to realize that he had been absent-minded all along throughout my explanation.His eyes were distant as he furrowed his eyebrows, it was obvious he was lost in his thoughts oblivious of his surroundings. I couldn't help but feel that something was troubling him. Lately, he seems to drift off more frequently."Asher! Asher! Asher!", I called out, jolting him out of his thoughts."Huh, you were saying something?", he asked."What's wrong with you man? Are you alright? Is there something you are not telling me?", I asked,sensing his unease."No, I'm fine. It's not serious", he replied but his facial expression betrayed his words."Why do

Selena PoV …It's been exactly a week since I started running my bakery business and ever since the business has been going smoothly. Not only have the sales been mind-blowing but the heartfelt reviews I keep getting from customers after patronizing me fill me with an indescribable joy and that alone makes me want to keep striving harder.Besides, I've been able to employ three people to help me out. Two were positioned at the front counter of the shop attending to customers and one who will be assisting me in baking. It feels so surreal to see my dream come to life and have a wonderful team supporting me.I sat on a stool near the kitchen counter, i scrolled through my phone, my fingers swiping and the screen as I waited for the meat pie and the sausage roll in the oven to finish baking while my assistant was busy frying the doughnuts.This was the third batch we were making for today as the customer's order kept increasing. My gaze shifts to the oven where the aroma of meat pies and

Selena povI had to leave the shop early at Scarlett's insistence that I needed to get some rest. Even though I was reluctant to leave, she assured me that she would take care of the shop and the girls and I knew I could trust her.As usual, I was stuck up in traffic, the ride that shouldn't take more than thirty minutes, took me over an hour. It was almost getting dark by the time I finally got home, feeling tired was an understatement, I was literally exhausted.I wanted nothing more than to go under the shower to wash off the day's stress have a good rest and maybe spend some quality time with my mother before going to bed.I've been avoiding her for over a week now because I didn't want her to notice any changes in me, I was still contemplating how to break the news to her.I opened the entrance door and walked into the living room, I saw my mom knitting as usual but not with the usual enthusiasm, she had this stern look written over her face.I could tell something was off about

Selena’s povI had woken up even before the alarm I had set rang, I lay on the bed turning and tossing around. I didn’t get enough sleep throughout the night. I was restless with thoughts that refused to settle knowing I had hurt my mom by keeping the news of my pregnancy from her.Glancing at the time on my phone, it was almost 7 am. My mom would have woken up and she would be out any moment from now. I had to make sure she forgives me before I leave for the shop today.Shifting from my prone position, I sat at the edge of the bed, my foot anxiously tapping on the floor waiting for my mom to come out.My eyes locked to the screen on my phone, I bite my fingers as I watch as each minute passes by. My heart raced as I recalled the anger I saw in her eyes sending chills down my spine. It was the first time I had seen my mom like that, unlike that of her usual jovial and lively demeanor, she was a different person entirely. I sincerely hope she forgives me, I couldn’t bear the thought

Two weeks laterSelena PovToday has been hectic yet a fulfilling one with customers streaming in and out of the shop. The online customers too weren't left out, they kept placing their orders and we made sure their orders got to them as soon as possible all thanks to the logistic company Evelyn recommended to me a few days ago.Their dispatch rider is so effective, reliable, and easy to work with, he makes sure to deliver the orders of each customer on time, unlike the previous one I worked with, he almost tarnished the image of my bakery- the feedback I got from my online customers were not pleasing to my hearing.It's either they complain that their order took too long to be delivered to them or it wasn't looking fresh as they expected it to be or by the time it got to them, the craving for it has disappeared.And his reasons are never valid each time I complain about the feedback I keep getting from my customers, it's either the bike broke down in the middle of the road, or someth

Selena's PovI stepped out of my bedroom looking all dressed and ready for today's task ahead in the bakery. I had woken quite early today even before the alarm could wake me up which is kinda of unusual, I decided to get ready for work rather than just lazing around on the bed waiting for the normal time to prepare myself for work.I heard a noise coming from the kitchen which meant my mom was up as always preparing breakfast for the both of us, she's the early bird between us.Just as I was about to make my way to the kitchen, my mom emerged from the kitchen holding a tray containing food which I have no idea what it was since it's covered.Surprise flickered across her eyes the moment she saw me, it was so obvious she wasn't expecting to see me ready for work this early."Good morning Mom", I greeted, moving closer to her."Morning darling, how was your night? Hope you slept well. And how is my little one doing?", her smile radiated warmth, she never ceases to inquire about my preg
