Semua Bab Seeking the Love of an Alpha: Bab 11 - Bab 20

It wasn’t until the sun had dipped low on the horizon that Micah whisked me outside the pack. My ears twitched, picking up the frantic rhythm of the drums, thrumming a crazy sound that had me bopping my head.I clutched his hands tighter as we made our way through uncharted waters. The moon was slowly making its entrance, giving light to the crowd that had gathered in front of his house.Unlike other packs, there was no central pack house. Everyone lived on their own in bungalows scattered around the pack, with extra ones built for newcomers.The men stood shirtless, dressed in what could be a ceremonial garb of bear skin, while others were cloaked in hides of deer and elk. The females were in long white dresses that swept the earth, looking every bit like angels.A hush passed through the crowd when Micah stepped forward, and they all turned to face him. “Welcome home!” A voice cried from the crowd, and the others echoed it, their excitement very palpable to others.This they did to

“Micah!” I whined as his cock slid free, leaving me hollow and empty in a way that claws my insides. “W-what is wrong?” My voice came out needy and trembling, just like I was feeling inside.I held out my hands, reaching for him, and that was when I felt his. His gaze burned, not in a way that sends shivers down my spine, but in a way that says, ‘I would burn you into pieces and throw the ash in a canal.’“Micah.” I whispered again, but my mind was already racing. My brain had made the connection already, but I refused to agree to the conclusion I had come up with.Instead, I acted on the desire. I hooked my legs around him, locking him in place, and I thrust upwards.His eyes glowed, his control wavering, but the anger still shone in his eyes, and I ground my hips on him again.A low rumble came from his chest, and he was already detangling, but I knew what it meant, and I refused to let it go like that.Reaching for his cock, the softening appendage almost brought tears to my eyes,

“Hello,” I tried again, smiling so hard in case she had missed it, but her eyes narrowed into slits, her breath coming out like the puff of a dragon threatening to breathe out fire. However, I would not be deterred, so I pressed on. “I am Raya, Micah’s mate, and I believe you are his sister.”She eyed me from head to toe, her lips slightly upturned in disgust, until finally her gaze settled on the hand I had stretched out for a handshake. If a gaze could burn, my hands would have been on a skewer for barbecue.“What are you still doing here?” She asked, her voice tight with venom, and I tilted my head to the side, startled. My eyebrow pulled together, ridges forming on my forehead, and I blinked slowly. This wasn’t how I had pictured our first meeting would go.I had imagined we would get along so well, to the point that we would become sisters, but if this was how she was going to be, then my dream for a sibling not related by blood would never be fulfilled. However, I would not be

Micah never came back again, not even when the light had fallen upon us and the dark crawled up the window. I was left alone in a bed that was too large for me, the white sheet now a dull brown color just like my heart, and I took a deep breath.I tossed around the king-size bed, unwilling to take any step outside, not when I was at the risk of running into his sister or his mother. If his sister had hated me that much, only the goddess knew how much the mother would, and I was not willing to test that theory.My finger slipped under the pillow, looking for the device I always used, the presence that was the only thing that would ease my soul, but no disappointment could tell what I felt when it came back empty.There was no means of communication between my family or my friends. My mate was nowhere to be found. His family hated me, and I was sure that the pack hated me now.I was truly all alone.The weight of the words crashed down on me like a boulder tumbling down a hill, my breat

We walked back to our home, not that I could consider it one yet. But it was where I hid my head now, and it was enough.The pack pressed upon us as they noticed us, stopping to ask about us, and I took the opportunity to move close to him, even holding his hands.Micah would never deny me in public, so I had better take advantage of that, and I pressed unto him the more, enjoying the privilege that came with being in public.But once we stepped into his home, his forehead furrowed in a deep frown, and he directed everything to me. “What the hell was that?”“What?” I shrugged, giving a little smile like I was innocent. “I was only trying to get close to my mate. Goddess knows that I needed it after I woke up to an empty bed.”I stared at him as I talked, wanting to catch the guilt in his face, but he merely hardened his eyes, his jaw locking in place.“Where were you?” I asked, bringing my hands to my hips. “You left yesterday, and you didn’t sleep at home?”Micah finally let the mask
