บททั้งหมดของ The Alpha, The Beta or The Rogue?: บทที่ 101 - บทที่ 110

I see the Alpha watching me, and I find his gaze almost clumsy. Like he is not used to the company of she-wolves, though I imagine after losing his mate, combined with the many years of battle he has enforced, this was not out of the realms of possibility. Was that why he was so struck with me? “Alpha Blake, please, I would like to know now, what your reasoning was for wishing to see me.” I say nervously. “After all, you went to quite the effort to arrange what you did to see me.” I see the corner of his mouth twitch, as if he was fighting a smile. Did he find me amusing? Or was it simply that he enjoyed seeing me feel uncomfortable? “That I did Evelyn, that I did.” He sighs. “Probably not what you expect of an old fool like me.” “I did not say that, but I think I should be allowed the respect of an explanation.” I add bravely, knowing I am already incredibly lucky I am not locked up inside of a dungeon of his being tortured to within an inch of my life.

My head spins at the suggestion Alpha Blake has just made to me. He wants me to reject my mates? The three men our very own moon goddess has selected for me. He wants me as his own? My head ached at the very thought. Why would he want me for his? He did not even know me… Not only that, but Ariella had told me it was my destiny to destroy this man did she not? So why now can he believe I am the woman he wants to make his chosen mate? No, something had to be wrong here… crossed wires or something… I am suddenly aware of his blue eyes intently gazing at me, likely waiting for a response. I haven’t said a word since he told me his thoughts… But, in all honesty, I do not know what to say to him. I have my mates. The thought of not being with them physically makes my heart hurt. I cannot imagine not being with them again… I felt like I had come home when I met Cayden and Jackson, it was the strangest sensation. Becoming their mates was truly something else. All of them, t

This has to have been the longest and slowest night of my life. Knowing we would be going to Night Shade Pack tomorrow to see Evelyn was all that I could think of, and sleep would not find me, no matter how I tried. I needed to see her. Knowing she was with him terrified me. He was not logical. He was known for being reckless, ruthless and cruel. I did not want Evelyn having to endure any of those things. I was truly fearing for her life. I paced the hallway of Jackson’s Alpha Suite where we were all staying, sat watching pointless tv, paced some more. Anything to try to kill time. To try to bring the morning’s arrival to me faster. As I wandered back down the hallway I bumped into Aiden coming out of the other spare room. I avoid looking any lower than his face as he, like me, is wearing nothing but his underwear. It had seemed the practical thing to do when we had decided to crash at Jackson’s home. Now I was beginning to wish I was better covered… “Can’t sleep?”

I dressed as soon as I could, heading to my office to deal with some paperwork and bills that were urgent. The recent days I had been a little lapse with my usual Alpha duties. It was easy to be distracted considering the course of events that had occurred, but I needed to try to focus myself. I sat at my desk, and begun working through the papers. Trying hard to not allow my mind to wander to Evelyn. I had barely slept, constantly wondering if she would be okay. Micco was so unsettled without her here. The prospect of losing another mate was tearing him apart piece by piece. I am beginning to question if accepting a second mate was the right thing to do, as I know if I lose her it will end my wolf, which ultimately would destroy me from the inside out. I am more than a little scared, but I don’t even know who to speak to about this. I had left Aiden and Cayden to their own devices. The two of them seemed to be getting closer, which does not bother me. The mate bond dr

The three of us had arrived with time to spare. Cayden and Jackson both now marked, so our circle was complete. I hoped this would be the final step in bringing us closer to being as close as we could be. The strength, well we knew that was destined to develop, and we had not had time for that, but we were three strong men, three strong wolves, all of senior positions within a pack, that in itself brought strength and abilities, hopefully, we could use those today to help Evelyn. I just hope having us here would give her some strength too. I missed her terribly, and I so desperately want her home with us. And there is no denying my other mates feel the same. We had all been shocked, maybe even a little disgusted by the hand that fate had dealt us when we had discovered it, a quartet of mates... but now we were together, all marked it seems like the most normal and natural thing. The most natural of scenarios for us. And I could not begin to imagine not being with any of
