Semua Bab THE ALPHA KING'S TWO FACED MATE: Bab 41 - Bab 50

She smiled tiredly, knowingly. "I was waiting for you."Damn, this woman had him in knots. Five words, and he was hooked on wrapping his arms around her. Touching her and feeling her heartbeat against his skin. The bond between them was growing day by day, and at times he could feel the feelings of her through it. Tingling warmth at the back of his mind, her worry for him as clear as day.He took a deep sigh, his shoulders slumping. "Sorry I got home later," he said. "The meeting ran late.""It's fine," she replied softly. "I just wanted to make sure you ate." She nodded to the kitchen counter, where there was a plate under a glass lid. "I cooked you supper."The words sounded strange to him. It had been some time since he'd allowed someone to take care of him like that. Not since he was the alpha of the pack, anyway. It was a simple meal—a grilled cheese sandwich and can of tomato soup, but it hurt his throat to even look at it. He had been so concentrated on finding out who had atta

"I'll try," Luthor finally said, crouching so they were eye to eye. "I promise."That was apparently enough for him, and he nodded slowly. "Alright." Then, with a suddenness as if he wasn't quite sure how Luthor would react to it, Alexander wrapped his arms around his neck. "Be careful.""I will," Luthor fibbed, swallowing hard in an effort to keep the knot from forming in his throat. "I promise."Minutes ticked by before Luthor put the key in the ignition. There had been no phone call from his cousin or his mate, and he knew it was not a coincidence. He felt it in his bones. He took a deep breath, attempting to keep calm. Panicking would do no good. He phoned Mark as he got onto the road, and he picked up on the second ring."Mark, I want you to go with me to Klaus's shop. Sharon was to have been home from work an hour ago, and I can't find her anywhere. I'm going to call Klaus and see if he's heard anything.""Alright. I'll be there in five minutes."He hung up, and Luthor stomped d

"You couldn't have known what Mason would do," Luthor told him, "It's not your fault.""Still. We, ah, have some amends to make. With Sharon, that is.""You do." Luthor was firm but not unkind. "And I have no doubt you'll figure out how to do it."Bladina snuffled, hiding from them and towards her car. She looked back at Sharon, tears forming in her eyes. "I'm sorry. For everything."And with that, they drove away in their car. Sharon leaned back against Luthor, comforted by his touch. "Am I a fool for being so kind to them, even after they treated me like a fool all throughout my childhood?""No." He nuzzled the top of her head, "It makes you my Omega."It wasn't appropriate to go into Scott's coffee shop after Sharon had spent so much time thinking he was the one who had attacked her, but it wasn't for a social visit. It was business, and pack business was always uncomfortable.At least it was warm on the inside, redolent with cinnamon and roasted coffee. Sharon grabbed a huge cinna

-----------Four Years and Half Months Later----------The forest existed beneath Sharon Spark's paws, leaves crunching, twigs snapping, the scent of pine and damp soil wrapping around her. Alexander ran and dodged through the trees ahead of her, his form lean, dark, and full of the boundless energy that only youth could bring.Michaelson Luthor probably could have kept up with his longer stride, but he stayed with Sharon. They moved in a pack of three, and their Alpha never left the others to fall behind.They jumped across a stream, water flying in all directions, and Sharon reveled in the feeling of cold droplets on her nose. Luthor howled, and Alexander howled with him. Sharon didn't howl, but she laughed inside, happy. Content. Whole.Alexander had come a long way, and his wolf was strong and stable. Sharon did not feel strong, but her transformation was smoother and smoother, and Luthor informed her that strength would come with time.As Alexander chased sparkling fish through th

When he unwrapped his arm, she carefully cleaned the wound with a clean cloth. He winced but remained unresponsive."Hurry up, please, Miss," Thane spoke abruptly. "The Alpha and the Luna will be coming to see him soon."She nodded and moved forward to touch the fiery red flesh. As soon as her fingers touched his arm, his eyes flashed open."No," he growled, low and commanding. "Do not touch me!"She backed away and looked at him. "It's me, Landon," she begged. "I just want to help you."His eyes burned with light and anger and she dropped her head and breathed deep. He was hurt. He probably didn't know what he said."You need to have your arm bandaged up," she began slowly. "It will heal so much faster. Just let me do it. I implore you." She attempted to reach for him again, but he pulled his arm back, making a pained face."Landon?" she pleaded, tears welling up in her eyes."Out!" he yelled, supporting his arm with his chest and struggling to sit up. Blood oozed from the gashes. "O
