ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 29ATHENA She looked through the window and searched inside my room with her eyes. When she noticed I wasn’t in there, she turned away and looked around. And then she saw me.Her eyes caught mine and held. I didn’t look away or pretend not to have seen her. I stared back at her letting her know I was on to her, my gaze focused on hers. It was pay back for all the times she has spied on me.The look in her eyes was unmistakable. First, she frowned deeply. I had expected a shocked expression at the way I stared unflinching at her, but she didn’t look surprised. Her gaze was filled with pure, undiluted hatred.She hated me!How did I not notice this in my previous life? I guess I had been too naive and trusting of people. I always thought no one had any reason to hurt me, I guess I was wrong.What she did next shocked me even more. Her expression changed in an instant and a smile played on her lips. She looked happy to see me, genuinely happy.Wow! She was go
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 30ATHENA “Are you hungry? How about we grab something to eat at the nearby bakery. I hear they’re unveiling a new recipe today. Jackie said to me as we sat down, drying our hair with a towel. The training session was over and we had just got out of the shower.“Sounds nice. How did you know about the new recipe though? Do you work there?” Jackie laughed and shook her head. “My mom owns the place.” She said.Right. I knew that. I had no idea why it slipped my mind. She was Cheryl’s daughter, and Cheryl was the best baker in all of Blue Moon Pack, so her bakery was quite popular.“I laughed too. “That’s right, I forgot.”“So , do you wanna come? I’ll make sure you get the best. My treat.” She said, folding the towel she had just used inside her bag.I had finished drying my hair too so I did the same. “I don’t think so Jackie. My brother’s pretty strict about me getting free gifts from members of the pack. He says I have to earn everything I’m given.” I sa
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 31ATHENA Really? Aiden came all the way here simply because he missed me? Why was he being so sweet?I wanted to hate him. He shouldn’t be doing this to my heart, making me waver and getting me confused.“Hm” I didn’t know what to say because he caught me off guard. He took me completely by surprise and now I was at a loss as to how to react to it.What would I do with him?“Can I kiss you again?”“You know What my answer will be.”He laughed, and I got a whiff of his peppermint breath. I tasted it on his lips when he kissed me too. It smelled and tasted to good.“I know, but I still want to try. Can I?”“People are watching.”“There’s no one here Athena. It’s just the two of us. So can I kiss you?”“They might suddenly show up from nowhere and come in here.” I said, my mind frantically searching for an excuse. I needed to gather my wits and strengthen my resolve again. But I had a feeling that wasn’t going to happen, at least not today.“I don’t care if
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 32ATHENA “How’s your leg?” Aiden asked me when the meeting was over. I had pulled a muscle while running this morning and I had been limping all day. But I was okay now. It seems my body had started to heal fast.“You’ve asked me that before.”“Well, I want to know how you’re feeling now.”I shook my head in awe of his persistence, but I kept silent though and strode into the kitchen. Lunch was well over an hour away but I was already hungry.It was Aiden’s fault that I hadn’t had anything to eat. I was supposed to grab something a the bakery with Jackie but he showed up and ruined my plans with his— No, I wasn’t going to think about the kiss again.“So I look like I’m still in pain?” I asked him in Response to his question. I had stopped limping a while back and I could do every activity as well as I used to now.“Would you tell me if you were in pain ? I’m pretty sure you would hide it.” He said.“No I wouldn’t. I’m not hiding anything.” I said, a litt
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 33ATHENA I suspected his reason for doing that had something to do with me, but it still surprised me to hear him say it. He was ready to do anything for me even if it meant helping my pack too. That wasn’t even his responsibility yet.“What do you mean?” I asked“I want people to know that your pack is equal to mine since my Luna is coming from it. No one will look down on you or your pack anymore.”“But, don’t you think the other packs will have a problem with it? Let’s be honest, no pack is actually equal with another. There’s bound to be differences in size and strength. You can’t overlook that. I’m afraid people will think you’re forcing your ideas on them. We’re not equal; not in territory nor power” I replied.“Point taken, but at the very least, I want your pack to be respected a little bit more. In truth, despite the size, I see great potential in here, but you’re not given the chance to show it. That’s what I want to do. I want to give Damian th
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 34AIDEN.Women And excitement!I rolled my eyes at Ella, who was a complete opposite of Brian in their personality. She was more outspoken than her mate and her role as the Beta female didn’t change who she was, although she could take charge when necessary.I shook my head in disbelief at the manner in which Ella and wade took over the issue like it wasn’t even about me. But I had to admit though, I liked how lively the women made the house whenever they were around. I guess I needed a Luna to make that happen for me too. It was what I needed to complement me.“What are we celebrating?” Trisha asked, wiping her hands with a towel. She was coming out from the basement where the laundry room was.“Baby.” Wade exclaimed and ran to embrace her like a pup who hadn’t seen its mother for a long time. Seconds later, the sound of them kissing filled the room. Wade was so into his mate and couldn’t go a day without seeing her.“Stop it babe.” Trisha said after a wh
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 35AIDEN My body shook with the weight of the laughter. Where did that come from? Well, maybe she was right though. I was ruthless sometimes, but only because it was necessary. And yes I was stubborn too. So her saying it didn’t offend me. I found it funny instead.I closed the distance between us and pulled her by the waist until her body touched mine. I loved the feeling.“Yes, I’m ruthless to everyone but you.”She didn’t try to fight me off as she usually did and it felt like she was enjoying being in my arms. It was as though she was a trying to seduce me.“And why is that?” She asked, looking into my eyes.“Because you mean everything to me. Because my heart beats for you. Because you are my world, my very essence. I have a lot of reasons, should I go on?”She looked away but I saw the little smile she was trying to fight off.“You do realize that you’re giving me too much power don’t you? If I am your world, I can also be the one to tear it apart.”
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 36AIDENWe remained in the dining room after lunch to discuss the ball as planned because Damian’s office wouldn’t accommodate all of us. So immediately we cleared the table, we went straight into the meeting.I didn’t mind wherever the meeting was held as long as Athena was there. I stared at her now, hoping I would be able to focus on the matter at hand. But she looked really lovely and she distracted me.I wanted to have my fill before I had to make my rounds around the territory. We had decided that the males would take care of security and make sure the pack grounds was safe enough since a lot of werewolves would be at the event. We decided to meet later after this to discuss more about it. We needed to pair up and divide ourselves into groups. We would take turns in guarding the place.Meanwhile, the women would be in charge of preparing the pack house, decorating the place, welcoming guests and generally manage the event. This was a very critical r
