The Alpha's Mate Is An Assassin

The first thing Elena felt was cold. Then pain. She felt a huge headache, feeling as if her head would fall off. She slowly opened her eyes. What greeted her was an empty and dark place. The room was illuminated by the small bulb at the ceiling. The air was moist and mouldy, the taste almost made her gag. She winces in pain as her muscles ache. She tried to sit up, but noticed two huge chains binding her hands. “Where am I?” She asked herself her gaze darting around trying to recall how she got into this trouble. This place felt like an underground dungeon. The last thing she remembered was getting a mission to steal a precious item and kill someone, then… something struck her head and darkness.She tried to free herself from the chains, but couldn't. After some time she gave up. The door creaked open, interrupting her thoughts. She tilted her head to the direction. The sound of unhurried footsteps approached her. She flinched as her heartbeat quickened. Waiting for the pers

'You can use the bathroom to clean up. I will be waiting downstairs,” Kael said, leaving her alone and walking out. He walked down to the living room where James was already waiting for him. He sat down rubbing his temples.“Sir, you brought the woman to your room yesterday. She is dangerous,” James said out of concern. “Don't meddle with my business,” Kael growled. “Any news?” He asked, closing his eyes. “Nothing much, the deal is closed. All that remains now is your final signature,” James said.“Next 3 days, you have a meeting in the Moon hall,” James added. “Isn't the next three days the full moon?” Kael asked, his eyes fully open. “Yes, is something the matter?” James asked. Kael fell into deep thought, not responding to his question. “If it is about you not finding your Luna. Most of the pack knows not to bother you about it,” James said. It's not that I have found her,” Kael said. “But, there is a problem,” Kael said, sighing. Meanwhile Elena just finished bathing.

She lay on the bed, burying her head in the pillow. For some reason, she felt angry. Feeling the urge to rush there and slap him. This wasn't her first time walking in a situation like this. But why does she care? He was her enemy and nothing more. Meanwhile in Kael’s room. “Stop,” Kael the woman screamed, her voice dry. Kael pulled out of her. She collapsed on his chest. “Did something happen? You suddenly became rough,” She asked. “Go and clean up,” Kael ordered.“Why don't we clean up together?” She asked, meeting his gaze. “Never mind,” She said, rushing to the bathroom and leaving Kael alone. When she came back, he didn't say anything, just entered the bathroom. Switching on the cold shower. Her face keeps popping up in his mind. He hissed in frustration as he walked out, wearing a towel around his waist leaving his upper body bare. “Alexia,” he called while sitting on the bed. “Yes,” she answered. “Come,” Kael gestured with his hands. She went on all fours, crawl

The next morning, Elena woke up feeling a heavy weight on her chest. She slowly opened her eyes, Kael's face was the first thing that came into her view. She was stunned by his face so close that she forgot to breath. Looking at his sleeping face, her gaze drifted to his tempting lips. Before she knew, she leaned in, planting a small kiss on his lips. She was about to leaned back when his gaze flew open. She gasped in shock. “One more time,” He muttered. Elena jumped backwards, putting distance between themselves. “No…I… You… it's not what it seems,” Elena stuttered. Kael slowly sat up, brushing the hair off his face. “It's exactly as it seems, you took advantage of me while I was sleeping,” Kael said. Her gaze darkened. "It is fair I do the same," Kael said reaching for her hand. Before he could touch her, Elena moved on top of him, pressing her hand on his neck straddling him. In this position, the bedsheet covering her fell completely leaving her naked on top of him. "
