Lahat ng Kabanata ng Alpha’s Mistake: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

Alpha Vlad~Concentrate, Vladimir. You have to face your reality. She is simply your mate and means nothing. Put your fucking mind together. My face buries in my hands as I fight it all: the bond, callings, and urges. Every damn thing that roars Milena’s name. Why the hell can’t I concentrate? Fucking why?“The guests are ready, Vlad.” Kane towers in front of me. A delighted beam across his face as he changes the collar of my regal obsidian military coat. “Perfect,” he utters.“This is much indulgence for a stupid ritual.” I unbutton some of my buttons. I look too great for an event satisfying my father.“You are Alpha, and there are a plethora of guests from far and near.” Kane snaps his finger and points. “You’re not disarraying things today.”“How many minutes do I have in that sickening hall?”“Hours.”“How many?”“two.”“Who the hell extended it?”“No one. That's the mandatory time for procedures.” Kane taps my shoulder. “Lada and you will be bonded tonight. Fair job keeping up

Alpha Vlad~Returning to the packhouse, I head for my quarter. My fingers are balled into fists by my sides. My blood steams with fire as my body vibrates. I had ordered Thane to bury the bodies on the hill—a place where my warriors are buried—as a form of respect for serving the pack. I instructed Thane and the rest of my warriors to keep the incident a secret. No one should hear of the death, especially my father and his beta. I hate when my enemies see what’s coming for them.Reaching my room, Lada is seated on the bed with her legs crossed. At the sight of me, she goes to speak, but I make my way into my bathroom. I will tend to her soon. Washing the dirt off my skin, I curse under my breath without stopping. The urge to roar and punch the wall claws at me, but I inhale sharply, air hissing between my teeth. If I let my anger take control, I’ll end up sending myself into a spiral I can’t climb out of, and I won’t go to Milena.She needs me. The bond screams it. Perhaps I will r

Alpha Vlad~Carrying Milena to safety comes first, but finding out why the old man is here matters more. My father does not move without purpose.His time is his greatest asset. If he’s in Duskwarren, something critical dragged him out from Virethorn. And that vital thing is what I need to know.Kane opens the back of the car and I slide Milena into the seat. Sitting beside her, I settle her head on my left shoulder. Kane and Zoran position themselves in the front seats.“Are we returning to Drago’s packhouse?” Zoran hauls a seatbelt and clicks it in. “That’s the only place she is safe,” I respond.“What about your secret chamber?” Kane scoots behind. “Why don’t you take her there? Milena will be well protected in the chamber.”“I don’t take women to my chambers.” My fingers ball into a fist, my voice coming out heavy. Kane raises his hands in surrender and backs off. He knows. They all fucking know my secret chamber is restricted from everyone. And when I speak of everyone, that

Milena~What a vile creature!I once mapped out how my life would go but nature doesn't bend to what we want. It breaks us instead. I never imagined I would be sold by a mate and the man who sold me would share my space.I can’t decide which shocks me more; the fact he sold me off, fed me, clothed me, or his last words of wanting to share a room.Forging personality isn’t something suitable for an Alpha. Alpha Vladimir has been impossible to read since I woke up. And his last words cut deeper.None of us is leaving.I am stunned as the phrase echoes in my head. Why would an Alpha want to share a chamber with a slave? No, these aren't the right questions I should be asking. I should be concerned about his reason for being here.How did his jacket end up in my hands? What does he want with me? And why is he making my life harder? My mind is scattered. I wish I could speak more. I wish I had the power to walk away or spit on his face. His decision is absurd. Worst of it is the fact tha

Milena~Which is more frustrating? Being sold or having the man who sold you lurk around? And a debt binds us together. How did I end up ripping his jacket, creating a future debt for myself? I hate debts and I never dream of getting myself into one.Alpha Vladimir’s scent lingers in the air for a while before fading. He is gone.I need to find my way to Zlata’s room and focus on my plans.The last time, I didn't get enough time to assess the drop from her window. The height is scary, but there will be a way.And the gate; how do I get past it? I wish that crazy Alpha Dragomir didn't appear in that inn and torn my plans apart. The men of that household have always been a plague in my life.For the gate, it's best to get closer to one of the guards. Earning his trust won’t be bad. It will take longer but being patient won’t stop my dream.Until the trust is built, I will focus on surviving. If the Goddess favors me, I will gather my fare by doing domestic chores. I’m a slave… rolling
