Semua Bab The Alpha's Accused Mate: Bab 21 - Bab 30

**Xavier's POV**Day 2"Alpha Xavier, what do you really have in mind about this mate of yours? And how do you plan to prove her innocence? I mean, what if she's lying to you?""There's no way the moon goddess would send me a liar for a mate.""You're so confident about her. Does this mean you've fallen deeply for her?""What are you talking about, Drake?" I asked with a raised brow."I mean I've never seen you help anyone before. Over the years, the only thing you've ever been interested in was killing the vampires. But now, I'm really surprised to see that you have something else you want to fight for.""And who told you I still don't have the appetite to kill more vampires? As you can see, we are stuck in Lockwood until we are able to find out exactly what happened. What you should be doing for me is helping me think of a solution and not trying to poke out news from me about Melissa.""Oh, I see. You already address her by her name now. How is this not you having thoughts about he

*****Kyle's POV***I quickly shut Jasmine up before she would talk out of line. It would be terribly disastrous if those outside were to hear what she was saying. I can't let her die, even though she's at fault. “Dad?”“You shouldn't speak of things that would get you in trouble, my child.”“Huh?”“Even though you tried to have her killed, I understand that it's because you didn't want her to take your place at the Alpha's side.”“Wait dad, do you mean you still support me even when you know what I did?”“I know what you did. Do you think I wouldn't know what you're capable of? From the moment I saw the scissors in the hands of Melissa, I knew you both had fought over something. And knowing how dominant you are over Melissa, I knew you must have attempted on her life first.”“But dad, since you know all this, why didn't you say anything? Why didn't you tell Alpha Caspian that I have been the one at fault, and that Melissa must have tried to defend herself? You're the Alpha's beta. I'

***Melissa's POV***I just do not understand what Alpha Caspian is up to as of this moment. Everything he does seems rather Strange. This was the first time I had a good talked with him. And to be honest, I didn't actually see anything mighty about him. All what he was saying only annoys me Asif this moment. He did plenty of things wrongly, and he's going to apologize now? “Alpha, as you well know, I'm mated to Alpha Xavier now. I guess the moon goddess finally took pity on me.”“That's not true. The moon goddess doesn't give mates to those who already have. Dead or alive. I know you're only just saying this just to make me feel bad. And I have to be honest when I say, I'm truly affected.”This was strange, coming out of Alpha Caspian. This is so not what I expected from him. “Listen, Alpha, I don't know how else to convince you about this anymore, but I'm serious when I that you're not my mate anymore. The mate bond between you and me was broken, the day I was to be executed. Ever

****Xavier's POV***When I said the last words, I could tell that I might have somehow hurt her by my words. Actually, I really didn't mean to sound that way. All this happened when I saw her with him. I had wanted to check up on her like I did the other nights before turning for bed. This is because I didn't trust anyone from the Lockwood pack. Not even Alpha Caspian. And since the Lockwood pack was known for sorcery, I couldn't trust my men all they needed to be able to protect Melissa on their own. And this is the only reason why I took up the task of checking on her every night before retiring to sleep. But this time, when I came, I was unable to find her. I searched the whole place, but it seemed as though she had disappeared without a trace.At that moment, the only thought I had in mind was that she must have been abducted by Caspian or even Jasmine. When I finally got out of the sock house, I perceived her Scent. To further make my worry intensify, her scent led me into the

***Alpha Xavier's POV***“What? A silver dagger, you mean?”“Exactly. What do you think Jasmine plans to do with a silver dagger?”“There are quite a few things she can actually do with a dagger, but the most important of them all is for killing. Wait a minute, it can't be that she plans to end her existence?”“Think out of the box, Drake. You think someone like Jasmine would give up just like that and prefer to die?”“Well, I really don't know about her temperament or what she's capable of doing.”“You should put all of those things into consideration if you really are eager to work with me. It's obvious that what Jasmine is planning to do is murder. And in this case, only one person is the target.”“You mean, miss Melissa?”“You're at least smart here.”"Shit! How bold of her. She dares to plot the death of your mate right in front of you.”Not because she's my mate, but the fact that Jasmine had the guts to plot to kill my mate knowing I'm close to her every minute of the day shows
