All Chapters of Alpha, it's Time for Divorce: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

My senses came back to me like a bucket of ice being dumped on my head. Aaron all but ran – he ran away from me, his eyes wide, face flushed, and heart-pounding loudly even from the distance he put between us.I tried to kiss Aaron.From nowhere, the urge to taste his lips overwhelmed me and I basically tried to assault my friend. I wanted the ground to open up, swallow me, and never spit me out and at the same time, I wanted to die – just – I just wanted to evaporate into nothingness.“I’m sorry.” My voice was perfectly calm – too calm for the kind of turmoil going on inside of me.“Hello?” A voice came from the device in his hand and he almost screeched in surprise.“Yes, hello!” His voice was a bit too loud as he cleared his throat. “Ken, can you come over to the Alpha’s house? The Luna isn’t feeling well so I thought – come check on her, please.” He hung up the phone and the two of us stared at each other like criminals who were about to be caught.“Why did you do that?” He asked,

I tore off my bra myself, feeling irritated with the material on my skin. His hand covered my entire right breast, his fingers squeezing the nipples as he added a third finger into me. As my core tightened and my body began to stiffen, I closed my eyes, panting hard.Right as I got to the edge, before I could experience an orgasm, his fingers stopped and my eyes flew open as I cried out in frustration. As I lifted my head, I caught his eyes in the mirror. The corners of his eyes were red, almost as red as my skin. The spot underneath me was drenched and sweat still poured off me.“W – why –“ I moved my hips against his fingers but he pulled them out, leaving me hot and empty.“Open your eyes,” he spoke to me in a quiet voice. “Keep your eyes on me,” this time, his words were a command.As he said, I kept my eyes on him. His gaze burned into mine, filled with a hunger that sent heat pooling in my guts. As he reinserted his fingers, my gaze wavered. My throat went dry at the same time I

The first thing I did once Kian left home was to order a postpill. He could not drag me with him to the office as every part of my body hurt and he also couldn’t leave me alone so once again, I was back to being locked up at home.I paced in the house, touching my stomach now and then. The heat was gone. My wolf was back to her senses and was too ashamed to speak to me but she was the least of my problems right now. At this point, the last thing I wanted was to have a child. A child would complicate everything so I couldn’t afford to get pregnant.There would be zero ways to leave Kian if I ever fell pregnant with his child.A knock on the door had me rushing out of the room and downstairs. I opened the door to meet Aaron with a tight smile on his face.“Oh, Aaron.” Relieved to see that he could make it here, I tried to hug him but he stepped out of the way faster than I could move.My hands dropped to my sides in embarrassment and I was reminded of the other day when I tried to kiss

“I am pathetic, aren’t I?” I laughed at myself.“No, you’re not,” Aaron responded almost immediately.He was my friend so he supported me but even I knew I was pathetic. I cringed thinking about all the foolish things I’d done in my lifetime just because I loved one man. It was no wonder no one respected me. I’d never once conducted myself with respect. Somewhere along the line, I’d become thick-skinned and forgot what it meant to be embarrassed just so I could be with Kian.It was truly pathetic.“I am. I can’t even divorce my mate. I can’t even run away without help.” “Kian Zephyr is a powerful man, don’t forget that,” Aaron said. “Anyone would struggle going against such a man.”“He threw you into the dungeons for helping me and I – I don’t even have anyone else to call so even after I’ve put you in danger once, I’m still dragging you into my problems again.”Against my best wishes, my eyes started to water. I hated that I was a crier, hated how strong my emotions could get to th

“Kian,” I called his name in warning as I tried to get his hands off me.“Natalie,” he responded with a growl. “Why do you have another man’s scent all over you?”“Since when did you care?” Rather than assuaging him, I got upset. “Didn’t you tell me you didn’t care what I did with my life as long as I stayed out of your way?”“I changed my mind,” he growled.“You can’t change your mind. You can’t fucking change your mind, Kian. Not now. Not when I’m done with you.”“What do we do, then?” He asked in a laughing tone. “I want you, Natalie, my mate. I changed my mind. Aren’t you happy? It seems playing hard to get has worked.”“I’m not playing-““It doesn’t matter.” He released me all of a sudden. “Have a bath. Wash off that disgusting scent on you and join me for dinner.”“Hey –““That was not a suggestion, Natalie.” He smiled – no, he barred his teeth in warning.‘What’s wrong with him?’ My wolf whispered to me, on edge.‘That’s his fucking business.’ I snarled, unknowingly transfer
