Chapter 3

I went back to my apartment, distraught. My head seems to be nearly exploding with too much information I have learned today. First, I met my mate, who was unfortunately an alpha. The second is about mandatory schooling. And thirdly, is about what Fernando told me before I left the shop.

“They will take you tomorrow morning. Again, prepare yourself.”

I don't know if I'd believe him or not. He must be kidding! It was barely 12 hours since I had met that freaking alpha and it wasn't that long ago when I learned about this mandatory thingy! No way on earth I am going to come with them! I will never belong to any pack! Over my dead body!

I gritted my teeth and slumped down on the sofa of my apartment. Since the payment I am receiving from the part time job is quite huge, I have to rent the whole apartment by myself and I have to buy some furniture to add some decorations on this boring and pale room. The most favorite thing that I bought for myself was my bed. It was queen sized and it was the best bed ever. My sleep was always comfortable as always. But then again, as I remembered my situation, I don't think my bed could cheer me up tonight.

“Why is this happening to me?” I muttered to myself, closing my eyes and leaning my head atop the backrest of the sofa. 

I should've chosen death instead of this. If I , it would be much easier. I have nothing to worry about in my life. I no longer need to work every day and study.

I could've chosen death as it was easy.

But as much as I wanted it, I knew I was only fooling myself. I don't know how to end my life. No, no, scratch that. I CAN'T end myself. Because as much as I deny it, I knew deep down that a huge part of me wanted to live.

for a reason.

Suddenly, Fernando's words rang through my head once again. “You have to... otherwise you will be slaughtered.”

What if they kill me? What can I actually do?

I have a reason to live. I don't want to die without having gotten what I wanted. If I die early... I won't be able to achieve my goals.

I can't die yet...

I didn't know I had drifted off to sleep, I just realized it when I was woken up by the knocks on my door. Yawning, I stood up and stretched my bones. I didn't realize that I had fallen asleep on the sofa. I rarely sleep here because I love my bed so much. 

Another knock from the door interrupted me. It must be Anastasia and her daughter, sending me breakfast early in the morning. I had to remind myself that I have gotten a generous neighbor and I should get used to it already. 

Not even bothering to look in the mirror to fix my face and hair, I opened the door and flashed a small smile to the person standing outside my apartment.

But my smile eventually faded when I realized who the heck was standing before my eyes...

He smiled handsomely. “Hi.”

I took a step back as my heart raced widely against my chest. I looked at him in shock. My eyes widened and my jaw was hanging open. 

He took a step forward and leaned his head, and before I knew it, his lips were pressed against my cheek.

“You look beautiful, by the way,” Alpha Reui whispered in my ear.

“W-what... h-how...” I stuttered as I gazed at him, flabbergasted. Tell me if I was only imagining things! This can not be real!

I slapped my face while looking at him still. But no! He was still there! I slapped my cheek again to try to wake myself up from this nightmare. This couldn't be real! How the hell did he find out where I lived and why the heck is he here in the first place?!

“Hey, stop that. You're hurting yourself.” He caught my wrist just when I was about to slap my cheek again. I gasped and blinked my eyes twice.

Alpha Reui let out a chuckle. “I'm real, baby. Now, let me in. I haven't had a coffee yet,” he spoke with his voice laced in nonchalance.

Before I could even say anything, he had his hands wrapped around my waist unceremoniously as he let himself in along with me. My jaw dropped to the floor.

“Your apartment is quite big, huh?” he muttered, and that's when I snapped out. 

I removed his arm wrapped around my waist and pushed him away from me.

“What the hell do you think you're doing?” I yelled, baring my canines. I thought that by showing my wild behavior was enough for him to back away from me. After all, he's an alpha and I'm a rogue.

But what I didn't expect was the amusement dancing around his silver eyes. “My mate is cute,” he said, like a love sick puppy.

I gasped as my heart betrayed me. It was a fast beat to the compliment.

“GET OUT OF HERE!” I shouted.

He shook his head, his smile widening even more. “Later, baby.”

I gritted my teeth. Who the hell does he think he is? Yes! He may be an alpha, but I am not a member of his pack. He can't command me. I follow no one but myself.

“What do you want?” I asked, straight to the point. I knew there was some reason why he came here. Either he would kill me or force me to get mated with him. which are both absolutely insane.

Alpha Reui cleared his throat as all the emotion on his face wiped off and was replaced by seriousness. “I came here to fetch you.”

Confusion swallowed me. I tilted my head and looked at him questioningly. An amused smile appeared on his face once again.

“Fetch me?” I asked after a minute of silence.

He nodded his head. “Yes.” He walked past me and then slumped down on my one seater sofa. He crossed his legs and leaned his back nonchalantly. He then flashed a panty-dropping smirk. “You're going to come with me, sweetheart.”

**

I didn't know what I was doing. No, it should be, 'Why the heck am I doing this? ’. I knew what I was doing, but now I don't understand why I am doing this. This is insane. It happened so fast that before I could even bat an eye, I was suddenly in this situation. One minute I was working my ass off and living my life peacefully, and then I met this jerk of a mate, and now he wants me to come with him!

“Hey, I'm still waiting for the coffee!” I heard him talking outside my room as I changed my clothes.

“Go make a coffee for yourself!” I hissed as I struggled to zip up my luggage. I refused to let him in my room when he offered help. Huh! As if I needed his help!

“But I want you to make it for me,” he said.

I gritted my teeth and rolled my eyes. When I finished packing up my things, I went inside the bathroom and took a quick shower. I chose to wear jeans and a shirt. I tied my hair into a loose bun and put a lip balm on my lips. I didn't bother to make myself look presentable in his eyes. 

When I was done, I opened the door and got out, holding my full luggage. Alpha Reui was watching television in the living room. When he sensed that I was already out, he turned his head in my direction and flashed a smile.

He stood up and turned off the TV before he approached me. He looked at me from head to toe. I expected him to grimace at my choice of outfit or get disgusted by it. Who wouldn't react that way, right? I look so cheap. Sure, there are countless beautiful women who are after him. He's undeniably handsome, anyway.

But Alpha Reui's reaction wasn't what I expected. He looked rather pleased. When our eyes locked, he said truthfully, “You're beautiful.”

I blushed profusely and looked away. What's wrong with him? I looked rather cheap. He must be blind.

“L-Let's go. I'm ready,” I lied. I am far from being ready. I am scared and hesitant. I don't know what's waiting for me at that freaking university I'll be attending. 

Just the mere mention of the university made my stomach churn. But do I have a choice? If I don't attend, I'll be killed. 

“Wait.” He grabbed my arm when I was about to turn around. I gasped silently and looked at his hand on my arm. I couldn't deny the fact that it felt good. His touch pricked my skin.

I peeled my eyes off of his hand and raised my gaze to see his face.

“Y-Yes?” 

“Before we leave,” he trailed off and took a step forward toward me. He circled his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him. He then leaned his face closer to mine until our lips were nearly brushing. My heart thumped fast and loud against my chest so that I could literally hear it in my own ears. Alpha Reui continued, “Katia, I want to kiss you.”

    Chapter 17We played in the river for few hours. Just talking and laughing around. We only decided to stop when it's nearly lunch. We need to eat of course. I decided to shift on our way back to the pack house. Shifting on to my beautiful golden wolf, Reui could not stop wiggling his tails and licking my face while making some purring sounds. I licked his face back and and rubbed myself to him. We could not communicate yet but we already understood each other.I growled at him when he couldn't stop himself from nudging me from time to time and making begging noises. I know he wants me to lick him again so all my scent will scattered around him. He could not even stop rubbing himself to me while we were trotting back to the house! This clingy and possessive wolf! Gosh!He was the one to shift back to his human form. He handed me some spare clothes and I changed from the back of the trunk.I glared at him. “You're so clingy!”He grinned and shyly scratched his eyebrow. “Can't help it.

    Chapter 16“Where's Catherine?” I asked.He shrugged. “Didn't we left her?”“Yes, but... didn't she say she'll tag along?”“She only said she wanted to see my wolf again, she never say she'll be a third wheel on our date for this day.”“D-Date?”“Yes. Date. We're now dating, right?”“Uhm, yes, but—”“Then date it is!” he exclaimed and punched in the air as a triumph smile appeared on his face.I scoffed and rolled my eyes. “Whatever.”He grinned.He took ahold of my hand and dragged me with him towards the huge rock. We sat there side by side with his hand couldn't stop but clinging on to me.“Why did you brought me here?” I asked.“I want to show you this river.”“The River of Eternal Life?” I frowned. “Why does it have a name? I mean, does it have some value on your pack... or whatnot?”“You probably haven't heard it,” he started. “Well, in this race, we have one Goddess that we worship.”“The Moon Goddess, right?”“Yep. Her name is Selena.”I nodded my head and poured all my attent

  • The Possessive Mate: Alpha Reui   Chapter 15

    Chapter 15I watched, amazed, as a huge wolf rubbed his face against me as if wanting to be caressed. I held the huge, black wolf's face and kissed his forehead. I caressed his head.“Your wolf is quite impressive, Reui,” I said softly. He purred softly and rubbed his face against me. I giggled and couldn't help but to kiss him again and again.“He said, thank you,” Catherine spoke, ruining the good moment, of course, she would. After all, she's a bitch.“Ah...” I lamely said and nodded my head. I forgot that they could communicate through mindlink. Ingrid told me that once Reui and I mated, we were able to communicate as well through link, and so to the other members of this pack.“He said do you find him beautiful?” she said again.I am growing irritated to her presence but I held it out. I don't want to lash out over this things. I'm not that childish.“Of course, I find you beautiful, Reui. You're MY mate,” I said, emphasizing ‘my’ to provoke Catherine, which was successful becaus

  • The Possessive Mate: Alpha Reui   Chapter 14

    Chapter 14 I woke up lying next to him. A smile graced upon my face as I saw his beautiful face looking so adorable. His lips were slightly open as he silently snore. His lashes was too visible to see because his eyes were closed. His red lips also looks so tempting to get a taste. I shook my head and giggled softly. I got up and headed towards the shower. I took my time cleaning myself before I went downstairs. I found mommy Cam cooking. I offered a help and she gladly accepted my offer. Both of us were chatting as we enjoy our bonding time together. I woke up around 5, and went downstairs around 6. After preparing the breakfast, I called Reui and the twins from their respective rooms. It's around 7 am now. “Wow, you cooked these?” he mused, looking at me happily. I sheepishly smiled. “No. I only help mommy Cam to prepare this. She cook these delicious food, not me.” “Ah, don't flatter me so much, dear. You help me with the cooking, so the credits shall go upon you, too. You're

  • The Possessive Mate: Alpha Reui   Chapter 13

    Chapter 13“Clean the mess up.” Reui's voice came out cold as he spoke towards his men who came right after Reui had disposed all the rogues. The sun has finally set and it was starting to get dark.“Yes, alpha,” said by his men.He hugged my waist and pulled me close to him. I snuggled my face to his chest to prevent myself from seeing the horrible state of the four rogues who wished the harm us. When I saw the bloodied scene, I freaked out. I didn't know I'm scared to blood until today. Gosh, I experienced a lot of first times.Like, when I said to myself I liked him. Like how I climbed up to tree, like how I discovered I actually am scared of heights and blood. I didn't know any of it until now. I don't know whether to be glad or to be scared.“Let's go,” Reui softly said, only for me, as he gently rubbed my back. I shook my head, eyes closed tightly. I'm scared to open my eyes. “You don't want to?” he asked.I shook my head.“Hmm, how about I pick you up? Is that okay with my baby
