Semua Bab The Alpha’s Hidden Mate : Bab 31 - Bab 40

ALEXIA The tension in the room was so thick that one could cut it with a knife and with each passing seconds, my heart raced with the possibility that my words may not have any effect on him and he would end up punching me anyway. There’s no freaking way I would survive a punch from a werewolf, judging by the fact that all Willow did was step on my foot, and now I’m on crutches for a week or so. Silence continued to stretch as everyone anticipated my opponent's next move—including me. My eyes snapped shut on their own accord as he brought his fist up to my face. I waited, bracing myself up for the punch that never came. I opened my eyes just in time to see him releasing my collar, but not fast enough as a teacher had walked in, and she was staring at us, point of correction, glaring at us. Bending down to pick my crutches, I put some distance between us as the teacher approached us. The rest of the classroom had gone back to minding their business, something they could have done i

ALEXIA On my way back to the cafeteria, I couldn’t stop thinking about the fact that Killian freaking apologized to me. My cheeks hurt so much from smiling, but I stopped at the entrance, forcing my face to stay neutral before entering the cafeteria. I knew my day was about to get better when I returned and there was no sign of Willow. Just as before, Leo took my crutches to place them beside me while Raven helped me settle down next to her. “Is everything okay?” She asked, her eyes roaming over my face. I nodded, not trusting myself to say anything. I feared that if I opened my mouth an uncontrollable giggling might escape due to how happy I was feeling inside.Leo checked his wristwatch, then reached over for his jacket. “Sorry to cut our lunchtime short today, I have a briefing practice to attend in a few minutes." “I thought you had a game last Saturday…” Raven remarked as he stood up to go. “No, it was canceled. Coach had a family emergency, which means the game has been mo

ALEXIA The situation I found myself in was partially my fault. I could admit that now, hours later as we pulled into the manor. When he kissed me, I had a choice not to kiss him back, but I did anyway. Besides, this was going to happen one day as I already knew nothing was going to come of my crush on him. “Whoa…” I said, glancing around. “You weren’t wrong when you said security has gotten tighter around here. What happened?” Zeke and Ben do that thing they do whenever they are about to lie. Exchange non-verbal looks to decide who was going to tell the lie so they don’t contradict each other. It’s starting to get annoying because I can’t shake the feeling that they were hiding something that concerned me… from me! “Politics.” Ben was the one who spoke. “An anonymous letter was leaked to Alpha Damon. The security are on the lookout for an assassin sent to put an end to Killian’s life.” What? I blinked, surprised by the fact that they didn’t only tell me the truth, but I didn’t an

ALEXIA Two days have passed since Killian came to live at my house, he might as well not be living there because there was no trace of him whatsoever. He stayed locked up in the guest room all day, I even walked around the passage in case I might bump into him or something. I told Raven about the recent development a day ago because it was killing me and I needed to tell someone, plus I trust her not to breathe a word about it to someone else. At first I was confused about why Killian would be hiding out at my place before I figured out it was exactly the perfect hide out place for him, no one would suspect him hiding out there, the last place anyone would think to look. All hope of seeing him one last time when we work on the project didn’t happen and I had to work on it alone and did the presentation all by myself. The teacher didn’t seem surprised when I went up to submit the project myself even though I had been scared to do so, afraid she might fail us. On the bright side of

ALEXIA The day after, I was still running away from Killian. But on the bright side, he stopped locking himself in the guest bedroom and joining us for dinner which makes avoiding him a lot harder. If my parents noticed anything weird— which I doubt, they didn’t comment on it.“You need to stop running from him, Alexia. It's just a crush.” Raven remarked, her tone indicates she’s trying not to laugh. Well, I’m glad at least one of us is finding this funny. Earlier this morning as I was getting ready to leave for school, Killian had knocked on my door asking to talk. In panic, I slammed the door in his face and didn’t leave until he did. Even after that, I fled from the house like I was being chased by a masked man or something. We stopped walking once we arrived at the open field, where most students are currently hanging out. We have thirty minutes of recess, which was exactly what I needed. Watching a group of cheerleaders practice their routine, I paused catching sight of a fami
