Isabella

My eyes met two beautiful yellow pairs when I regained consciousness. I could recall falling into a ditch and being sure I was going to die till a strong hand pulled me out. The two pairs of eyes belonged to the most beautiful face I'd ever seen. She was so sweet and gentle but I couldn't acquaint myself much. I wasn't sure whether I was at the right place at this moment. 

"You are awake. Let's get you washed up. You have to meet our Alpha." The smile never left her face when she spoke. Then I realized I was still a mess from falling into the ditch. The servant clothes I wore to disguise myself were dirty and I guessed I looked dirty.

"Your Alpha?" I heard myself asking. She nodded, helping me out of the bed to the bathroom. I was embarrassed to ask her to help take my bath but she smiled and helped me. 

"Yes, our Alpha. You were lucky he got there in time to save you," she said while she held out some clothes for me to choose from. Now it made sense. That was the strong hand pulling me out of the mud. I sure have to show my gratitude. Still, I wanted to ask about the Supreme Alpha. I had to be certain I was in the right pack.

"I had someone pick some of my clothes from the packhouse for you. We can go shopping later." She continued to speak, while she dried my hair.

I saw her gape when she combed my hair. I wasn't surprised. Cassandra and the maids gave that reaction all the time but I couldn't get used to it with a stranger.

"Who are you?" She asked.

"I don't know," I tried to fake worry. Better to fake now than to regret it later. I saw her eyes roll to the back and I swallowed tightly. 

"Don't be scared. I just mind-linked to let them know that you are ready," she smiled. I had read that mind-link was a way of communicating between werewolves without words with anyone in the pack, irrespective of distance. Seemingly, she must be talking to her Alpha.

Stepping out from where I had learned was the pack hospital, gazes pinned on me as we made our way to Alpha's office which she had said was in the packhouse where she lived. If my research and the information Prince Marcus gave me were correct, then she was related to the Alpha or the Beta or perhaps, mated to the Beta. I can't ask her now. I must see and thank their Alpha for saving my life.

A man met us at the entrance of the lavish storey building which had neatly trimmed lawns with beautiful flowers around it. It was magnificent. It made me recall the state of my kingdom. Even our castle didn't look this magnificent. If things go well, I will be able to rebuild my kingdom with Prince Marcus. The man had yellow eyes like that of the sweet lady. They hugged each other which made me conclude that they were in some kind of relationship. It was my first time seeing affection displayed, making me feel empty inside. 

I never had that with Prince Marcus throughout the time we met. We never even hugged. Things were still formal between us. 

"Use the door on your left, he is expecting you," the man pulled away a little but not completely and said. I was a little nervous. I expected the sweet lady to take me there but she left me to my fate. The door was a little ajar so I didn't knock and entered. The ambience of the office was elegant. Everything in the office was neatly arranged. The furniture looked expensive and the other brown finishes with black and red stripes were superb. I could tell the Alpha was well organised. 

A man with long hair held in a messy bun stood by the window. "My name is Alpha Jade. Please sit," he said. I glanced at him. Meeting his red eyes, I lowered my gaze when my heart almost fell out of my chest. I obediently moved to the chair while memories from my nightmare, my father's face and Prince Marcus words wormed my mind. He was ruthless and killed my father but why did he save me? Perhaps it was because he didn't know me. 

He kept asking me questions which I tried to answer as briefly as I could to not raise suspicions. I felt ashamed when I realized I hadn't asked the sweet lady's name and he told me her name was Blevine. The horrors kept nudging me, making me shiver uncontrollably. Fear had taken a complete toll on me and I managed to avoid his gaze all this while convincing myself he wouldn't suspect my intentions, till he dominantly asked me to look him in his eyes. His voice was soft and so was his gaze but I also had the confirmation that he was the man I was looking for. He was so domineering even with the softness he showed me but my fears wouldn't dissipate. 

I also knew that whatever Prince Marcus wanted me to do was impossible. I wanted to go back to the comfort of the castle, even if it meant being locked up forever. I didn't have any mage powers so this was the only way to prove my worth to Prince Marcus and my Kingdom but I didn't care anymore. I lifted myself from the chair and charged towards the door but I couldn’t reach it in time as his strong hands clamped around my wrist, yanking me towards the opposite direction. I found myself wrapped in the comfort of Supreme Alpha's arms, my head resting on his hard chest. 

I wanted to run but his hands tightened around me. I felt something I'd never felt before but I didn't have the words to explain. He calmed me, caressing my hair and patting my back like Cassandra used to do. I felt my fears dissipating, warmth taking over. My shivers were gradually ebbing. I was engulfed in an earthy fresh forest scent.

What has he done to me? Why do I feel safe in the arms of my father's murderer when I have to run? How do I destroy him?

Somehow, I didn't want to leave the comfort of his arms. It was my safe place. Before I got the chance to speak, the door pushed open and the man I had seen with Blevine walked in.  

Alpha Jade gently pulled from the embrace and I instantly felt empty. “Duke, please take her upstairs to the room next to mine. Her interrogation continues tomorrow," he said to the man. I was dumbfounded. Did he just say the room next to his? I guess I wasn't the only one confused but Duke as well. 

"Jade.." He tried to say something but the Alpha interrupted him.

"I know what I'm doing Duke."

Duke pursed his lips and led me outside where Blevine was still waiting. I was glad she stayed behind. 

"Take her to the room next to the Alphas'. I will see you later."

"What?" Blevine exclaimed to my worry.

  • The Supreme Alpha's Unwanted Mate   chapter 73

    Jade The two hours Bella spent in that castle was the most nervous two hours of my life. So many fearful questions wove through my psyche. The silent what-ifs and whatnots. When Damien cast the spell, he seemed to be in a trance so I couldn't find out how things were going in there. Duke was just as worried as I was but tried to comfort me. I knew how much he cared for Isabella and almost died because of her so I knew that whatever he felt was genuine. My eyes were glued to my wristwatch as my nervousness turned to despair with every minute that passed without her showing up. I wanted so much to speak with Damien but startling him was tantamount to breaking the spell bond between him and Bella so I kept my eyes fixed on the entrance. Suddenly, he breathed deeply and I knew the link was broken. The two hours were up but Isabella hadn't returned. Has anything happened to her? My attempt to mindlink didn't connect, I broke out in cold sweats, opening the d

    IsabellaFinally, I was able to convince Jade to let me go but I felt a missing part of me when he left for training. I wanted to go with him but he refused. He insisted that he needed to do this alone. After he left, I looked back at the state of the pack and began giving out instructions. I didn't think they would obey me at first but they all did. The only surprise we could give Jade was to ensure that the pack was safe and clean in his absence. Duke led the team of warriors to reset the traps that had been destroyed by the psycho Prince Marcus.We changed into working gears and began working tirelessly, lifting trees, burning debris and clearing the pack. While we cleaned the packhouse and mourned Aligiza, the warriors cleaned the strong city. Pack members cleaned their houses, which made it easier. When we were done, we moved to the streets, clearing everywhere before removing fallen trees in the forest. What we couldn't remove was the dirt on the walls of the bui

  • The Supreme Alpha's Unwanted Mate   Chapter 71

    JadeThe greatest opportunity presented itself. War was a destroyer. I thought it was going to be hard to exert my revenge but Prince Marcus made it easier on me. For as long as none of my pack members was involved, I was void of all fears. My greatest concern was that of losing any of my pack members. For every war that broke out, I worried that someone was going to lose their life.Since I was going to meet him alone, it would settle everything. He just made the biggest, craziest mistake of his life. I will train harder and face him in three days as he proposed. Aligiza's death and that of my warriors, would not be in vain. After accepting the challenge, I couldn't miss the fearful look in my mate's eyes, it made me apprehensive.She trembled when I got close to her. She almost killed Prince Marcus before. We even thought he was dead so what could make her so afraid of him? I was greatly disturbed when she said, "Jade, please don't do it. Don't fight the

    Prince MarcusSacrifice was what brought me this far. I gave up my all to gain what I have. Isabella missed by a millimetre. She had no idea that I survived. I saw the horror in her eyes when she saw me today. I could guess the question she kept asking herself was how I survived.When I attacked the Supreme Alpha's pack, I was amazed that he wasn't leading the war himself but everyone he entrusted was up to the task. It was as if he was leading himself. I watched them for a while before joining and was amazed at how Damien handled the vampires. His skills had greatly improved.I looked around for Isabella, knowing she had also received a lot of training, I intended to distract the Supreme Alpha and kidnap her but it didn't work out as planned. Aside from her capabilities, he didn't allow her to join the war, which showed just how much he cared for her. For someone who opportuned on every strength he got, that was a remarkable decision.U

  • The Supreme Alpha's Unwanted Mate   Chapter 69

    Isabella When Jade told me about the moon goddess, I was filled with profoundness. She was real. Cassandra told me it was just a myth but I didn't believe her. Was it that she didn't know or she was hiding something? I wish I could see the moon goddess too but it seemed she only revealed herself to Jade and most importantly, because of his position. I was glad he confided in me and shared this secret with me. Our night was ruined but it was worth it since it concerned the safety of our pack. We couldn't spend the night in the cabin as planned, and Blevine needed me to try out my dress for the coronation, I couldn't wait. When we got to the packhouse, Blevine and I made our way to her room with Tatiana. The little girl was excited to be around us. She kept jumping all around as I watched her with delight. A designer was waiting for us with sample dresses to choose from. I chose the one that caught my attention. A baby blue royal dress. After we got all t

  • The Supreme Alpha's Unwanted Mate   Chapter 68

    Jade"Jade, what's wrong," Isabella's voice pulled me from my trance. The moon goddess was no longer there and I knew Isabella hadn't seen her. I didn't want to hide anything from her anymore and for the moon goddess being my guide, it was essential that she knew, but I couldn't tell her now.I kissed Isabella on the forehead. "Bella, I'm checking something around the lake. I will be right back."She gave me a suspicious glare and I knew that she didn't believe me. "Did something happen?" Her curiosity peaked, as she stared caringly at me."No, don't worry. Please stay here. I will be back before you know it," I said and pulled on my trousers. I grabbed my shirt and wore it as I strode out of the door. Before I opened the door, I turned around, my eyes meeting Isabella's flushed face. I smiled apologetically and said, "I'll make it up to you, I promise."She forced a smile that didn't reach her eyes. I knew she was disappointed but for the moon god
