THE MATE THE ALPHA NEVER CHOSE Chapter 24
ETHANI left the house around the time I usually head to the bookstore, but today, instead of going there, I went to Brent's house.Brent had a workshop a few yards before the actual building in the compound. I first noticed the changes Brent had made from the outside; it now had big modern lighting that gave it a bold look.I stood near the entryway of the workshop, my eyes tracing Brent's every move as he worked. He turned and looked at me, and a smile dawned on his face.“Hey there,” he said, walking towards me. “I forgot you said you would be coming early.”He put his hands behind my waist, pulling me closer as we kissed.“You know what?” he let out, “I just have to finish up something here. I will join you inside in no time.”“Don’t worry, I will wait here.”I feasted my eyes on the view of the interior of the workshop, which was, mind you, not what I was expecting. The room itself was really attractive— from the beautifully polished wooden floors to the carefully arranged tools
THE MATE THE ALPHA NEVER CHOSE Chapter 25
TYLERAnother day has arrived. We are all waiting for the last Xiray to show up. Whenever we hear any sound from the gate, we get excited, hoping that the final Xiray has arrived and that it would put our minds at peace.But alas, there's still no presence of any Xiray around despite scouting the premises three times a day. It makes no sense since Xirays are only created to kill werewolves; they serve no other purpose. Having two Green Eyes in one place should have been enough to lure any Xiray to the cabin."I always enjoy playing chess with you," Grandpa said gleefully as a smile cracked along his lip. "I win every time, but it's always fun, I must say."I sat across from my grandfather, our eyes focused on the game of chess we were playing. This is a tradition that we have shared ever since I was old enough to grip a pawn. As always, I am sure that my grandfather will emerge victorious in our game, but that has never been a reason enough to stop me from playing. The chess piece's s

ADA Look, you could call me crazy, but I swear I could feel some ‘tension’ between Tyler and me. While I didn't think I felt anything for him, I hated how I felt around him. I was a 24-year-old woman—not a teenager; I couldn’t understand why I always felt anxious around him. I had gone to him to ask him to help me learn how to control my powers— mind you, this was proving to be quite the challenge. Now, I know what you're probably thinking: ‘Ask your father; he has probably never been this idle since he became an adult.’ Well, that was in itself the issue. I didn't want him to worry, and worry was something Dad was very good at doing. “Screw this,” I let out as I recalled how Tyler's face was when he held my hands. I could swear that he wanted to kiss me. Everything was written boldly on his face. He didn't need to say anything.Was I being delusional? Maybe it was the way he looked at me? Or was it the angle? Did I notice that he always tried to be near me? But where else could h

ETHAN "Dammit," I muttered, frowning as I washed the dishes. Moments like these made me wonder if I understood anything about life. I just didn’t get it. I didn’t understand what was happening to me these days. I felt like I was hanging on a thread and could lose my mind at any point in time. It all weighed heavily on me. It began with seeing that creature at the Conans’ house. I told myself it was all fine, that I was tired or sick, and that's why I saw what I saw. And for a while, I believed it until I saw it again while coming back from the store days ago. Then there was that weird note at the store the other day. Even after all this, I refused to dwell on it and instead focused on the good things happening in my life.But two days ago, that woman appeared out of nowhere, like something out of a horror movie, and almost gave me a heart attack."What the hell is going on in my life?" I said aloud as I finished with the dishes and moved to the sofa in the living room.You might th

TYLER“Stop thinking,” I whispered to myself, barely aware that I had said anything. I couldn't be the only one who hated how our hearts often made life harder for us. This was a pretty simple issue; I liked Bella a lot, but she was in a serious relationship so there was no chance that we would ever be a thing. End of story, right? Well, if only it were that easy. Now, don't get me wrong, I actually liked Ada as a friend, but I had to be honest with myself. I really liked her and would like for us to be more than friends—if, of course, she wasn't in a relationship. But sadly, that wasn't the case. I left the room and went to the living room. Grandma, Mrs. Miller, and Johnny were in the living room talking about one thing—the last Xiray that, for some obscure reason, hadn't come yet. “We can't keep staying here,” Mrs. Miller said, her legs crossed before her. “I say we give it a day or two at most, and then head for our respective homes.”Grandpa's eyebrows were raised, and he loo

ADA You know, I could write a whole damn novel based on all the stuff that has happened to me in the last two months or so. It's crazy how my entire life just turned around. From worrying about my crappy job and alcoholic bestie, now I have to worry about being killed by demons and a psychotic witch whose intentions are still unknown to all of us. Yes, my life is a total mess. If I could say this in fifty other languages, I would. I couldn't even think of a way to clean it all up. Oh, how I wish I could get my old life back. I would pay to have it again. I don't want to accept that this craziness isn't just a part of my life, but what it will remain.Tyler paced back and forth as he spoke into the phone, "Ethan, I need to hear the whole thing from the top. Take your time and explain everything."Oh, Ethan! Tyler had told me about him. He's some human guy who can see the real form of Xiray. What are the chances that we would know one human who could do that, considering only a handfu

ETHAN “An innocent heart holds no fear,” my mother would say to me as a kid.So why was I afraid? Though my life wasn't the most exciting, I was content with it before I saw that demon. From that moment on, I had no peace. My thoughts were consumed by it. When I wasn't thinking about it, I was trying to force myself not to. It was suffocating.The worst part was that I couldn't tell anyone about it. Look, don't get me wrong, I was relieved that Brent didn't remember seeing Acelia- he was better off not knowing about whatever this was. But that meant I was alone in this.“I will explain everything to you,” Tyler had said when I called him yesterday. “I know this is a lot to take in, but it is what it is.”Tyler seemed to know who Acelia was, but I found it disheartening that I couldn't find much comfort in him, as his tone made it clear that he was deathly afraid of her. Still, speaking to him somewhat pacified my worried heart.Shit. Wasn't my life like a movie now? While I spoke to

ADA"Mum, for the hundredth time, I'm fine," I said, leaving the living room to join Dad in the dining area.Mum followed me, a cup of hot tea in her hands. "Ada, I know what you're going through. But you have to understand I need to know you're in control of your powers and, more importantly, that you're fine.""Mum, I've told you that Tyler has been helping me via text messages online," I let out, noticing Dad's attention left the sports article he was reading on his tablet as he looked at me.Dad didn't like that I chose to get help from Tyler instead of him and Mum. It had been about a week since we left the cabin and went to our respective homes. I was going to leave the house in two days to head back to my flat in the city."Have some tea," Mum said, handing the cup to me."Mum, I have already had this in the morning.""Sweetheart, it's herbal tea," she said. "You can never have too much. Ask anyone."I downed the tea in two gulps and handed the cup back to her. "Anything else?"
