Chapter 40: A Big Announcement Pt. 2
"And in exchange for their assistance, they want us to get married."
It took me a while to recover my voice, and when I did, all I managed to croak out was, "What do you think about t-that?"Dylan retracted his hand and my cheek immediately felt empty. He turned his body to stare at the shabby ceiling. I didn't understand why he was more fascinated by moldy wood rather than my gaze but chose to not say anything. Well, with my voice backing out, it wasn't like it would be easy to."To be honest, it's a great opportunity to get things done faster and easier."My chest throbbed.I hummed in reply to let him know that I was listening."The pack was fine with the proposal, too," he continued, still staring at the ceiling. "And it's not like…""Like what?""It's not like I'm attracted to her or anything.The way he trailed off made me think otherwise. I wanted to scream 'no' but didn't want to spoil the undoubtedly perfect opp

It was hard to open my eyes the next day. Crusts of dried tears shut my eyelids closed but after a quick rub with the back of my hands, they fortunately came off easily. As my mind began to recover from the sleep, I realized that there was something soft and warm pressed against my cheek. The harsh sunlight made me squint for a moment until my vision adjusted to the brightness. Enzo was staring down at me with a strange look on his face. He usually wears a stupid grin but today, he let his emotions run bare."Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked with a raspy voice. My fingers wandered to my cheek and true enough, that his hand was there. His expression softened even more, his eyebrows furrowing in concern. "I had a talk with Hayes last night. From the looks of it, your reunion with him must've been unpleasant."Memories of last night flashed in my head and my heart immediately throbbed painfully at the reminder. I propped myself onto my elbows before resting against the wall.

"That's enough," I heard him say. Not a second later, the television screen went black and I found myself staring at Enzo's reflection instead, a hand reached out to point the remote towards it.There was nothing about the press conference that I didn't expect, except maybe for the fact that the marriage was announced a lot sooner than I thought. The unpleasant surprise rendered me speechless and unmoved on the couch with my tightly clenched fists sitting on my lap. I could feel Enzo's sympathetic gaze on me but I didn't dare meet his eyes.I was heartbroken but strangely didn't have the energy to act on it. My eyes stung but no tears ran down my cheek. Despite the rush of a horrible mix of emotions, my head was clear—an idea popped up."Enzo," I called out. From his reflection, I saw him flinch, his eyebrows raised up in question. "Put me out there.""What do you mean?"This time, I unclenched my fists and stood up to face him. The determination in my eye
My Mate is the Alpha Chapter 43: Dylan POV (3)
Dylan, surprised at the sudden contact, immediately held Amelia by the shoulders and pushed her away albeit just slightly so as to not arouse suspicion. They were in front of hawk-eyed journalists after all. The camera flashes made him dizzy, but he still mustered enough strength to force yet another fake smile.To compensate for the kiss that might have been warily cut short, he snaked an arm around her waist before facing the crowd again. His lips felt dirty and a strong urge to wipe any traces of her on his skin with the sleeve of his jacket was getting harder to ignore with each passing second. The remaining sliver of professionalism was the only thing that kept him from doing so."Anyway," he spoke into the microphone. "That is all for today's press conference. Have a good day."As the pair walked out of the stage hand-in-hand, the audience burst into a ruckus of overlapping last-minute questions and camera flashes. Dylan brought up his other hand to cover his ey
My Mate is the Alpha Chapter 44: Vivid
When I requested for a full-length mirror in my room, Enzo was quick to comply. Now, I stood sideways in front of it, a hand lifting up my oversized sweatshirt to reveal the baby bump forming on my abdomen. According to the doctor's estimation, I was only about two months pregnant, but the bump looked like I was at least eleven weeks. He reckoned that the werewolf genes of the baby were dominating, thus, it was normal that it was growing almost twice the speed of that of a human baby's.I brought my other hand up to caress it, a small smile forming on my lips as I continued to adore the reflection of the growth on the mirror. Soon, it would be possible to know the gender. I wish Dylan would be around by then.The maternal joy that was only starting to fill me immediately waned at the thought of him. My chest throbbed and my throat tightened. Once more, the image of him kissing another she-wolf popped up in my head. They were unsurprisingly the most famed couple in the country currentl
My Mate is the Alpha Chapter 45: Kiss Overwritten
I opened my eyes to the sound of heavy rain outside.My pulse still thumped loudly against my temples as my breathing fell short and ragged. My cheeks felt cold and I raised a hand to touch it only to realize that I had been crying while I slept which was no surprise at all considering that it was such a horrible dream. There was still that vivid, lingering ache in my heart, but now that I've woken up, I could only vaguely recall Dylan's cold stare. Everything was starting to become a blur. I was thankful for that.I continued to stare at the ceiling whilst I gave myself time to calm down. Listening to the rustling of tree leaves and the pitter-patter of raindrops on the roof, my hands found their way to my abdomen yet again without me knowing.Then, just when I was finally beginning to feel more at ease, my ears picked up on faint thuds in the hallway. Footsteps. They were getting louder and louder with each step so I could only assume that it was heading in th
My Mate is the Alpha Chapter 46: Wanting You
"Dirty?""I…"The realization sunk in, and the corners of my mouth tugged up slowly to form a smile. "Is it because you kissed another woman?""Y-Yes…"So I wasn't the only one who was bothered by it after all. I sighed in relief and held his chin to make him look at me. Without warning, I leaned in and kissed him on the lips.When I pulled away, I mumbled, “There. Kiss overwritten.”I didn’t give him the chance to recover from his surprise and swooped in for another kiss.At first, he was dubious but I took the lead, moving my lips and slipping in my tongue to coax him deeper into it until his usual confidence was back. I felt his hands on my hair then slowly slide down my back and waist until they were finally caressing the bare skin under my shirt. His fingertips left traces of electricity with every touch.Our lips didn't dare part even for a second, even while I climbed onto his lap. But when he touched my abdomen and felt how big I was getting, he
My Mate is the Alpha Chapter 47: Part of the Team Pt. 1
I woke up to an empty bed. My window was open, letting the morning sun and cold breeze flow into the room. Covering my bare chest with my blanket, I rubbed my eyes and sat up on the bed only to find Enzo leaning against the doorframe. He stared at me with his usual amused grin while holding a tin tray of mugs and plates. My nose caught a whiff of hot chocolate, and my stomach growled. "Good morning," he said, finally pushing himself off of the doorframe and walking across the room towards my bed. I watched as he began to set the plates and utensils on my bedside table. My breakfast consisted of a cup of hot chocolate, eggs, and a salad. "Thanks," I mumbled quietly, burying myself deeper into my blanket. I didn't quite understand how he could act comfortably being alone in a room with a naked woman under her sheets. My cheeks warmed up and I felt self-conscious. "How long have you been standing there?" "Not long." Upon closer look, I noticed a small cut on his lips and a bruise sta
My Mate is the Alpha Chapter 48: Part of the Team Pt. 2
A waitress.It sounded way too easy to be true. Following my gut feeling, I unzipped the garment bag. My knuckles felt something sturdy hidden under the collared shirt so I undid a few buttons for inspection.I found myself staring at a leather vest with an abnormal number of straps to fasten it. I rapped my knuckles against it and true enough, there was a thin sheet of metal tucked in between the two layers of leather. The metal, however, was molded in a way that would definitely outline my body shape, most likely to make it look as less rigid as possible. Merely looking at it was enough to force the fear that I felt earlier to come crawling back up my throat, making it difficult to breathe."Enzo…" I croaked out, unable to peel my gaze off the vest. "W-What's gonna happen at the party?""That vest is obviously for safety measures," he replied. Once again, he had avoided answering my question. Then, he stood up to take the vest from its hanger, ho
