Semua Bab The Alpha’s Secret Love: Bab 1 - Bab 10

Layla’s POV The look in Nate's eyes hurriedly went from shocked and appalled to amused and unmoved. A wicked smile formed on his face, and then suddenly an outburst of laughter occurred. The mocking sound of his laughter rattled my very being, and that made me feel quite demeaned and had my self-esteem wrecked in an instant. It went on for quite a while. And to make it all worse, he was doing all of that to me in front of Hannah, who seemed to be having the time of her life. “Are you being serious right now?” Nate asked, still reeling from the laughter, which he was seemingly lost in. “It seems like you lost your mind from the shock.” Yet again, I could feel myself about to break apart right in front of them. “It's clear that I'm of no use to you now, so it's only rational that you let me go...” “You don't call the shots here,” Nate said, as he stared me hatefully in the eyes. “I do. You can't just make demands and have them done at your every whim. I'm still alpha, even t

Layla’s POV … “What…?” I almost couldn’t believe my eyes at that moment, as I saw Hannah emptying the contents of the small bottle she had in her hand. I wasn’t sure what it was, but then, I could tell that it was something harmful. She suddenly looked around but was unable to spot me from where I had been watching her from behind a door. I watched in fear and surprise as she made for Nate’s room. It was clear what she had wanted to do from then on, but I still couldn’t tell why she wanted to feed it to him. The jealous part of me wanted to sit and watch everything unfold, as Nate had simply abandoned me to myself without giving a definite reason for his change of behavior. He deserved it after all. ‘But we can’t just let her do anything to him…’ Ava, my wolf kept spurring me to act, even though the jealous part of me had taken quite a strong hold of me. ‘He could be in danger.’ ‘He could be in danger for all I care,’ I snapped back at her even though I was mainly speak

Nate’s POV Life really is never fair. To think I have treated her so unfairly, yet she was on her sick bed suffering because of me. I brought this upon her, and I should be the one there right now, not her. Why have I treated her that way? There might have been other reasons, but the fact that I had no choice always made me so angry whenever I remembered. Before my dad died, he made it a law that if I don’t get married to her, especially if we find out we are mates, then I should not be allowed to rule the pack. All my life, I have trained to succeed my father, so there was no other choice for me than to marry her but that day, I vowed that I would make her wish that she hadn’t come into my life. Yes, I had been shortsighted. She did not give the order, it was my father and if I wanted to be mad at anyone, it should be him. As I left the pack behind me, I was determined to find the tear of the moon flower. It was usually found in the deep mountains, very far from the pac

Nate's POVI can’t believe I would never get a chance to make things right by her. Despite everything, I still end up the one waiting for her to wake up so I can apologize for everything I have put her through.As I stood vigil beside Layla’s hospital bed, the soft beeping of the machines and the antiseptic scent of the room seemed to closing in on me. The healers’ dire prognosis echoed in my mind like a death knell: “She will not make it through the night.” My thoughts were a jumble of anguish and regret, as I replayed the memories of how I had treated her.I remembered when Hannah has first returned and I had gave her the first rude shock of her life.“Who is she?”She had asked one time after seeing me talking to someone on the phone and when she saw it was Hannah, she looked at me as if I had down something wrong.“Why were you talking like that to her?”“Why do I need to explain myself to you? Know your place, woman. I am the Alpha! I do what pleased meI remembered the look of h

Layla's POVIf he thinks he can erase all his past mistakes with just one act of goodness or anything, then he is sorely mistaken.I am grateful that he saved my life, but that's all. It doesn’t make me forget all the sleepless nights that I have had, or all the times that Hannah would flaunt her presence and he would stand there without saying anything, or when he allows the pack members to make fun of me or when he refused to stand up for me.The anger boiled inside me so much that I could no longer hold it in as I shut the door loudly behind him.If he had insisted on staying, I would have left because I could not stand being in the same room with him.He brought me to a near-death experience, and if there had been no other option for me when he took my pain, then I would be dead. I had him to thank for that not happening, and if it had happened, I had him to thank for that too.How did I let myself go this much?I had been hell-bent on winning him over and hoping that someday he w
