Semua Bab Fated to the Alpha: Bab 301 - Bab 310

The cat sniffs my face before climbing on top of my shoulder and stretching herself out.I watch Charlotte place the order, and my mind fills with a hundred questions, none of which I can ask right now. She’s so young, in her early twenties. A man in his mid-thirties is surely nothing short of boring for her, but I can’t talk myself into leaving. Even in her silly pajamas, she is adorable. I don’t think I could ever tire of looking at this woman.As I stare at Charlotte while she talks to the restaurant on the phone, I realize I’ve never wanted someone the way I want this woman. Everything inside me, including my wolf, wants to possess this beautiful creature, and the sheer force of this desire frightens me. From the moment I laid eyes on her, I’ve been fascinated. I knew what she was then, and I know what she is now, but it doesn’t matter.It must be a purely physical response. Because why would I be attracted to a vampire? It makes no sense. My kind can sleep with those outside our

Chapter 7Charlotte SanguiniteRobert Montgomery is a strange, strange man.For an Alpha, he’s a little too easy-going. Or is it a facade?I can’t really tell.However, he’s nice to me. I like him because he adopted Zeno on the spot, simply because he wanted to give the dog a home.“You daydreaming?” Jazz snaps her fingers in front of me, making me blink.“What?” I look at her.“I’ve been calling your name for two minutes.” Jazz hands me a slip. “One choco frappe and a cappuccino.”“Sorry,” I wince.I can feel her eyes on me as I get to work. “You’ve been in a weirdly happy mood these days. Found a boyfriend?”I flush. “No! One of the puppies at the shelter I volunteer at got adopted three days ago.”Jazz looks unconvinced. “You’re so giddy because of that?”It’s mostly that. Zeno has found himself a good home. Mixed breed dogs like him don’t usually get adopted that easily. With the way Robert was asking so many questions, I know he’ll take good care of the puppy. And I saw the joy i

Robert tucks his hands in his pockets and looks around, intrigued. “It is. I love a good barbecue.”The marinated meat area really does have everything, from seafood to chicken to lamb and beef cuts. Robert and I select quite a few items, and when I see him reaching for his wallet, I instinctively slap his hand away. His eyes widen, and I snap, “Not so fast. I know what you’re doing. I’m paying.”He puts on a rueful expression. “It doesn’t seem right to let a lady pay.”“Oh, and it’s okay to scam me into dinner dates, then?” I raise a brow at him, not at all buying his little act.“Fine.” The Alpha raises his hands, palms out, in defeat. “You can pay. But I pay for the alcohol. What will you have?”“I don’t think we should dri—”The man behind the counter is already handing Robert a laminated menu. “Somebody will be right with you to start up your pit, and they’ll bring you your food.”“I really don’t think I should be drinking, Rob—”However, my concerns are ignored as Robert nudges

I get up. Without warning, she quickly tilts her glass back and gulps down the remaining drink.I gape at her, and she grins.“Don’t act so smug,” I say as I sink back into my chair. “That’s going to come back and bite you in the ass tomorrow morning.”“I’ll be fine,” she beams. “I’m just going to go and get another…”She should be falling over her feet by now, but I guess she does have some level of tolerance. She’s a happy drunk, not a loud one, but a somewhat perverted one, too. That particular aspect of her drunk personality is made clearer as she walks past me and whispers, “You’re also welcome to bite my ass if you want.”I’ve never been one of those people who gets flustered easily, but drunk Charlotte seems to have a knack for making me feel that way.I grab her wrist, my voice hoarse. “No more drinks. I’m taking you home.”“My home or yours?” She winks at me.I stare at her, my pants feeling tight and uncomfortable. “I should have sent that last drink back.”How that one drin

“I spat it out.” Charlotte takes another step back, and I dimly realize that I’ve begun to cover the distance between us. “Sh—Shifter blood is very addictive. I’ve never tasted it before. I just removed the poison as much as I could…”My wolf is pleased. I don’t know why. It’s prowling inside of me, unable to stop. I sense its burning desire.Charlotte’s back is pressed against the counter now, and I can smell her fear. She has nothing to fear from me, but I guess she hasn’t realized it yet. I’m not capable of harming this vampire with the fierce eyes and soft heart.“How did I taste?”The wolf is at the forefront now.My voice is low as I caress the side of her neck, my body pressing against hers so that she is effectively caged.“Wh—What?” Charlotte is frozen in place.“Did you like how I tasted?” I ask, watching a blush form on her neck where my fingers are touching.“I…” Her eyes are growing unfocused. I lower my head, feeling my teeth sharpen.“Yes?” I ask, slowly glancing back u
