Alexander’s POVToday was another hectic day.But, it wouldn't be the first time I was experiencing such. I have been having a series of hectic days ever since I became alpha.And to worsen matters, it has been getting worse since the past few weeks, before and after Emily's arrival.I still had challenges with rogue werewolves.Although they had stopped abducting and killing my soldiers after the warning from last time, this time they had resorted to poisoning my fields, and killing my crops.Thereby making the demand for food in my clan increase, but its supply decreases.It was becoming quite frustrating.The door to my office burst open, revealing Emily in all of her glory, clad in a beautiful pink dungaree that was presently drenched in blood. I furrowed my brows and stood abruptly, rushing to her side.“What—” I was about to ask her what had happened to her when the foul-smelling stench of vampiric blood filled my nose, almost making me throw up.“Emily?” I asked, cocking my ey
**Alexander’s POV**I sat behind my office’s desk surfing through some files I needed in acquiring a property while Dimitri and Chad sat in front of me bickering over some irrelevant issue.As usual, I paid no attention to them because I knew they were always like this.A few minutes into their argument, a knock sounded at my door.Chad and Dimitri stopped talking and stared towards the door.“Come in,” I said gruffly, pinching the bridge of my nose in frustration.I was exhausted. I could also feel a headache brewing.“Good morning, Alpha.” Dr Patrick said as he stepped inside.I furrowed my brows at him. It was his first time coming into my office without telling him to. It was weird but somehow I didn't think it was a friendly visit.“Good morning, Patrick. Please sit.” I replied curtly, hiding my surprise.As soon as I asked him to, he sat, throwing an anxious look my way.“Thank you.” He mumbled.I could hear Dimitri and Chad make sarcastic comments as to what might have made Dr.
**Emily’s POV**I sat in a corner of my room, staring at the rough painting that had been gifted to me by Malcolm's younger sister only a few days ago.It showed a pretty little red-haired girl holding a large hibiscus flower and according to her, the flower in the painting meant good luck. It was pretty and I loved it.But right now, I was bored. Freaking bored out of my mind and if boredom could kill, I'd be dead this instant. I needed to do something, to channel this sizzling energy coursing through my veins into something. I could no longer go to Malcolm for training sessions, and neither was I allowed out of my room without a guard. It was frustrating.According to Alexander, he insisted that I followed the rules because my life was in danger at the moment and that he was scared of more attacks coming in the future.I understood his worries though, and so I let it slide.My mind flashed back to how Mary and Sophia had died, and whoever had murdered them was still out there that
**Emily’s POV**It had been a few days since me and Alexander got into that heated argument, and ever since then, I hadn’t laid my eyes on him nor heard from him at all.I had tried communicating with him through our mind link, to get him to actually talk to me, but it was to no avail. It seemed like he had shut me out completely. I couldn't reach him anymore on the mind link, it was totally dead.Another scary part was the fact that I couldn’t feel traces of our mate's bond. Even his mark and the one on my neck were slowly fading into nothingness, I didn’t understand it but I knew it scared me.To make matters worse, I had been disallowed out of this room, and my door had been replaced with a silver door to refrain me from using my powers to break it down.It was more like a cell. A mini cell, because according to him, this was his way of keeping me locked up, and unable to escape at least until he found out the truth about his parent’s death and my parent’s involvement in it.It was
**Alexander’s POV**I slowly picked up a copy of Sophia’s autopsy results, and in anger, I flung it to a corner of the room, not minding where it could’ve dropped.In a swift swoop of my hands, I emptied the contents of my desks, listening only to the sounds of papers and of shattering ceramics as they all fell to the floor.My heart throbbed painfully in my chest and my breath hitched involuntarily at intervals, making it quite difficult for me to breathe with ease.I couldn’t believe it, couldn’t believe that I had been harbouring the daughter of my parents' murderers. And giving her special treatments as well as providing her with all of the finest things I could afford.I also blamed the moon goddess though for doing something like this to me. For cursing me with such a mate!I couldn't say I was blessed with her. How the hell was I mated with my parents' murderer's daughter?!I was certain the moon goddess knew about it. After all, she was a goddess and knew a lot of things we di
**Alexander’s POV**“We’re here.” I heard my driver say from the front of the car, and even though I had heard him clearly, I didn’t move.I watched quietly as everyone stepped out of the convoy of cars up front, including Chad and his father but I still didn’t try to move. It was like there was a special force holding me down, restraining my movements.I literally began squirming in my seat when I noticed Chad walk towards my door, and then stopped right in front of it.“Are you about to change your mind?” He asked, looking at me with curiosity in his eyes and from where he stood outside my car, I could see every expression he made.I was afraid. I sensed it. It was fast gripping my heart but I didn't know the reason. I assumed it was the vicinity I was in.It was the environment producing the fear.“Alpha…?” He asked a little more impatiently this time. I could also notice his father up front, standing but not saying a word.I couldn’t change my mind now, couldn’t decide to turn aro
**Alexander’s POV**I stood right in front of Emily’s door unsure of what to do. I couldn’t bring myself to knock on the large door and at the same time wasn’t sure of how long I would have to stand here before she sniffs me out.I couldn’t bring myself to turn around and walk away too, I needed her, needed to talk to her, and to apologize for all of my wrongdoings.I had asked Chad to reopen her room, to set her free from the mini prison I had locked her up in, but then I had been informed that even after her door was unlocked, she still refused to walk out of the room.I let out a frustrated sigh, but before I could chicken out, I brought my hands up and knocked on her door… once… twice… thrice but still, there was no response.Fearing that she had probably run away in anger, or perhaps must have done something to herself, I booted the door and barged in.My fear dissipated when I stared at her. She was clad in a pink fluffy bathrobe, sitting in front of the vanity and brushing at h
**Emily’s POV**My head thudded continuously against the soft bed, heat rushing through my blood from the spot where his tongue was driving me utterly insane. My leg flexed on his back, urging him closer, pulling him into me with my hands cupping his head to hold him still as I rocked my hips into his warm mouth. I could feel the rough satin strands of his hair against my sensitive inner thighs, and it aroused me, making a river of liquid arousal flow down there. He leaned down and kissed me on the lips, with his fingers now moving rhythmically inside me.The kiss and his movements were frenzied, I was hot all over and I love the feeling. I liked what he was doing to me and I wanted more.I moaned as his thumb began circling and pressing around my folds slowly, and even screamed out in pure sexual agony when his other hand scooped my hair forcefully off my head and held my head in place. His tongue mirrored the actions of his fingers, claiming me, drilling holes into me. My legs b
