Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Alpha's Mate: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 18

The sunlight pouring through the window prompted me to open my eyes. Of course, the first thing I saw was a peaceful Valor, still fast asleep. I was tempted to kiss him but stopped myself and carefully got out of bed, making sure not to awaken him. I did the necessary things before getting ready and rushing out of the room. I didn't want Valor to wake up because of me. Deciding that it was too early to meet the pack members, I went into the kitchen and decided that I wanted to bake something. Every Sunday, I used to bake cookies for my family, and considering this was my new family, it would make sense to carry on the tradition, even if it was a Thursday, not a Sunday. Close enough.Humming one of Rihanna's songs to myself, I managed to find all the ingredients I needed to bake these cookies. Baking was one of the things that helped me get my mind off things, and it was just one of my favorite things to do.As I put the cookies in the oven and proceeded to clean up my mess, a little v

Lunch preparation with Valor started off awkward. I didn’t know if I should give him something simple to do, like peeling carrots, or risk asking him to chop something and lose a finger. I decided to play it safe.“Here,” I said, handing him a bowl of potatoes. “You can peel these. Easy job.”Valor gave me a flat look. “You don’t trust me with a knife?”“Not yet,” I teased, flashing him a grin. “Let’s start with something you can’t ruin.”He smirked but didn’t argue, grabbing the peeler and getting to work. Watching a powerful Alpha hunched over, struggling to peel potatoes, was oddly satisfying. He muttered something under his breath when the peeler slipped and nicked his thumb.“Careful,” I said, trying not to laugh.“I could be out training with the warriors,” he grumbled. “Instead, I’m peeling potatoes.”“You’re bonding with your Luna,” I shot back. “That’s more important.”He paused and looked at me, his piercing blue eyes softening just a little. “Yeah, I guess it is.”That cau

It was a typical Saturday morning when the doorbell rang. I was in the middle of tidying up the living room when I heard it. The sound of the doorbell made me freeze for a moment. I wasn’t expecting anyone, but as the familiar voices started floating from the entryway, I knew exactly who it was.I rushed to the door with a smile on my face, opening it to reveal my mom standing there with Leander, his wife Freya, and their two little troublemakers, Axton and Liora.“Mom!” I exclaimed, pulling her into a tight hug. “What are you guys doing here?”“Well, we figured we’d pay you a visit,” she said, beaming. “And since we haven’t seen Valor yet, we thought it was the perfect time!”I stepped back to let them in, but Axton and Liora were already making a beeline for the living room, shouting and laughing as they ran. They were little whirlwinds, full of energy. I couldn’t help but laugh as I watched them jump on the sofa, their laughter filling the house.Leander and Freya stepped inside,

Two weeks had passed since the accident, and Valor was finally back on his feet. Watching him walk around like his old self again felt like a weight lifted off my chest. He was strong, not just in body but in spirit. Still, I couldn’t help but hover around him, making sure he didn’t overdo it.“Lenora, I’m fine,” he said, catching me watching him as he carried a stack of plates to the kitchen.“I know,” I said, crossing my arms. “But you’re not invincible, Mr. Hero. Just take it easy, okay?”Valor smirked and set the plates down. “Noted, Luna,” he teased, leaning in to kiss my temple.I was about to tease him back when the doorbell rang.“I’ll get it!” I called, wiping my hands on a dish towel.When I opened the door, I found a man standing there, looking slightly nervous. His arm was in a sling, and beside him stood a young woman, her beauty so striking it caught me off guard. She had long auburn hair and piercing green eyes, the kind of natural elegance that belonged in magazines.
