Semua Bab THE ALPHA'S ADDICTION: Bab 151 - Bab 160

Derek unfolded his arms from his chest and stood up straight from his reclining position on the wall, and stalked over to Maya. "How long are we still going to wait?" He asked, as he got closer to her. "We've been waiting for more than three hours already." He added, scrunching his face in the process. After they had eaten the food which Aunt Jan had given them, they had as prepositioned, went to Curtis room, but the sly dude had hung them up, mentioning a meeting which he was supposed to attend to in the council room. He had told them that it wouldn't take long, and that they should wait for him, till he got back. He had obliged, not wanting to set up any trouble by mind linking his friend and pack warrior, Leo. He resolved to wait, and follow the procedure laid out by his cousin. This was the guy's pack, not his. He would have to follow his orders. But he had been waiting with

Maya knew the moment Derek's pleasant mood shifted, she knew by the tightening of his grip on her hand which felt so small in his, the moment his anger started rising up like a lava moving up a mountain to invoke a volcanic eruption. She knew that he had recognized the girl standing some meters in front of him. She also knew that the recognition didn't stem from the memories of their childhood, when their packs had been together and was peaceful. The memories of a lot of plays and communion. No , she knew that the recognition had stemmed from the tales she had told him when she had come to his pack again. Tales of her teenage life as she battled with guilt of betraying them. Tales of the rumours that she had seemed to be always in the middle of. Tales she had told as a means of bargain to get his trust back.  She knew he had recognized the intruder as the girl whom had tainted her name, the girl whom she had feared would have her mate around her fingers, th

The training grounds of the Winders Pack was still cluttered with some people, members and non members, who had been looking, and eavesdropping on the conversation going on between the two couples at the centre of the field.    Maya contemplated whether she should send them off through a command through their common pack link, well her own pack members, even as she had finally let out floodgates of laughter which had been threatening to spill for a while now. Zoe's last statement had served as the trigger, to the outburst she could no longer hold in. At that moment, she had thought her old friend very dumb.    What was that statement about waiting for the moon goddess to pair two grown-ups who were dating, knowing fully well of the lack of the mate bond between them? She didn't think she had heard anything more stupid.   Waiter. She mused, still laughing.            

Sia, Maya's wolf, howled in victory, possibly doing a joyous dance of victory in Maya's head as they both watched as Leo turned against Zoe. "Yess.." Sia said, laughing tangibly. "It seems the effects of the witch's potion is wearing off." "Probably." Maya agreed, not wanting to spike up a hope that might soon be drenched out. She didn't want to rejoice yet until he could recognize her as his mate; until her scent could be able to drive him crazy with want, like his did her. But then, she couldn't deny the fact that she was glad, so so glad, that she had almost brought out her tongue to mock Zoe. The latter still looked shocked though. Well, she had been too. She hadn't been expecting him to hold back Zoe's hand. She had only thought that Derek would intercept it before it got to her. "But our mate came to our aid." Sia opined on a joyful note. Maya thought that her wolf version was just too happy an

Derek waited outside Maya's door, checking his brown leather watch at intervals, then pacing back and forth the distance covered by the door, for the umpteenth time. He wondered what was taking his cousin so long to dress up. "Why do girls take much time to dress up?" He mumbled to himself, checking his watch again after some minutes had passed. He was getting impatient already, not because he was actually that eager to attend his cousin, Curtis' birthday; no, not at all. He just had a scheduled meeting with Leo. Brandon had conveyed a message from his uncle to them, a message which really hadn't surprised him The man had arranged a ball- like event for his son, allowing the invitation of a neighbouring pack which he had only heard in a passing, something he would never do for his daughter, Maya, and he wanted everyone present in the pack in attendance too, with the traditional bow or tie clothing. He had wondered what the fuss had being abo
