บททั้งหมดของ The Alpha's Dead Mate: บทที่ 61 - บทที่ 70

Sabrina's POV I stared at my reflection in the mirror as I pondered on all that had happened at dinner.Mark's offer had left me bewildered by its suddenness and then there was Aria…Did she really think I would agree to be Mark's mate?Was she simply trying to pair me up with him because she feared I would be a threat to her and Zenith?A pang shot through me at the thought of Zenith. I closed my eyes and willed my mind not to replay the events of this morning but try as I might, they were simply stuck at the forefront of my head.The way Zenith had looked at me, the intensity of his stare, how he held me…My eyes darted to the box in front of me and I hesitated for only a moment before I pulled it open.I turned over the box and all its contents fell onto the table.My heart raced as I picked up the first note and went through its contents.I lost track of time as I read the notes, one after the other and I felt old memories surface through my mind like a bandaid ripped open.I coul

Zenith’s POV I bounced on my feet as I circled the punching bag and I tightened my hands into fists.I imagined the punching bag to be an opponent and I attacked as I would have my enemy.Sweat trickled down my back but I ignored it as I kept going, trying to release pent up anger and frustration.A growl left my lips as an image of Sabrina smiling at Mark popped into my mind and I punched the bag with all my might.Why did I care who she spoke to or who she smiled at?She could smile at anyone she wanted, it had nothing to do with me.Alder paced around within me but I ignored him. He had been restless since yesterday and not even the run could make him feel better.‘How could I be at peace when there is a man trying to claim our mate?’ Alder gritted out.“She is not our mate. Aria is our mate. Sabrina is free to be with whoever she wants.” I reminded him but try as I might to get the message through to him, he refused to accept it.‘If she isn’t our mate then why do we still feel

Sabrina’s POV Alder took a step towards me and I raised my right hand as I let out a shaky breath. It had been too long since I had been this close to Zenith’s wolf.How would Alder react to me now that Zenith was mated to someone else?Yet, there was that pull which I struggled to ignore.Could Alder feel it as well?I took a step closer to Alder and he didn’t move away. Rather, he stepped closer and leaned in until his head was pressed against my hand.Alder’s eyes closed as I gently caressed his fur and he purred.Why was my heart racing?What was stirring within me?Alder's eyes opened and met mine and I instantly took a step back.What the hell was wrong with me?Why did my emotions keep tugging in different directions?Zenith had a mate now, he had a Luna. I needed to remember that, regardless of whatever stupid bond I could feel.“Alright, let's begin.” I muttered as I faced forward and I felt Zenith's gaze on me for a moment before he turned as well.I took in a deep breath a

Sabrina's POV “Is everything alright in here?” Mark poked his head into the room and Zenith stiffened in front of me.I bit my bottom lip as I wondered if Mark had heard anything.“Actually, I hurt myself during training and alpha Zenith was helping me but he was just about to leave.” I declared and Zenith cocked a brow at me but remained silent as he rose to his feet.“If Zenith fought you the same way he sparred with me then it's no wonder you are injured.” Mark joked as he walked towards me.“I still expect to see you at practice tomorrow.” He ordered with a blank expression on his face and my hands clenched into fists by my side.The nerve of the man to actually think I was going to go anywhere near him after what he had just told me.My heart still beat loudly in my chest at his proclamation.I couldn't help but wonder what had made him change his mind when we arrived at his pack.Did seeing his Luna change his mind? He chose to be a faithful maid and find another way to punish

Sabrina’s POV “What?” I pushed away from Zenith.“He was training with the warriors and they got distracted. It was a while before they realized he was gone and they’ve been looking for him but he is nowhere in sight.” Caleb explained and my heart raced.“W-well have they checked his room? The kitchen?” I inquired as dread slowly creeped through me.“Those were the first places they thought to check.” Caleb revealed.My heart pounded against my ribcage and I marched past Caleb, making my way out of the room.Eli couldn’t possibly be missing. Where could he have gone?Maybe he was simply hiding.I made my way to his room and the second I pulled open the door, I could tell he wasn’t there.The room was cold and too quiet.“Eli?” I called out and as expected, I got no reply.Fear trickled through me and I hastened my steps towards the kitchen.“Sabrina, are you alright?” Jane asked the second I stepped into the kitchen but I ignored her as my eyes darted around.“Sabrina?” Jane gripped
