His Fifth Mate 25
Chapter 25Alpha Miguel POVI walk briskly down the verandah, heading to the hall where the chiefs must be waiting for me now. I have no idea what happened back here, but the call I got from Axel was kinda not clear and filled with worries, which had me rushing down here."What happened?" I ask as I barge into the hall, and as expected, Axel and the chiefs were already waiting for me."There is a problem, Alpha," Axel utters as he stands up to his feet and walks over to me, and I gulp down nothing."What's the problem?" I ask him, a bit worried."Our spy in Blood Moon Pack conveyed a piece of information to us today, and he mentioned something we don't understand. He said that you were cursed to be lonely for the rest of your life, and that was why you've lost your recent mates," He explains, and my heart freezes in my chest. For seconds, I stare into space as I feel my heart hammer against my chest. How the heck did they know about it?"The problem now is that they are planning to lu

Chapter 26Carl POVThe drive back to my house didn't take much time, and as I park at the garage minutes later, I spot Emily standing in front of the house and waiting for me. She scurries over to me as soon as I hop out of the car, and I groan silently."You're here, baby? I have missed you so much," She whines as she throws herself in my arms, hugging me tightly as if I've been away for so long, and she has really missed me."It's late. Why are you still up?" I ask as I pull her away from her gently, and she scoffs as she rolls her eyes."How was I supposed to sleep knowing my baby wasn't home yet? Come on, I made your favorite. Why don't you come inside, and...""I don't think I will have dinner tonight. I'm exhausted, and need to get some rest now," I cut her off, and she creases her eyebrows as she stares at me suspiciously."Are you ok? You look sad. Did anything happen while you were away? Come on, tell me what happened?" She urges me as she holds my hands, but I gently retrac

Chapter 27Clarissa POVThe last few days have been filled with Miguel acting strange and avoiding me, which had me questioning myself if I did something wrong to him. I have tried to reach him even on his phone, but nothing ever worked out, since he kept ignoring my calls, and my messages too. He has also been absent from the office lately, and he would always ignore me whenever he came to the office, which has been driving me nuts."Are you ok?" Charity asks as she walks past me and slumps on the bed. It's a beautiful Tuesday morning, and while I am getting dressed, she was busy with the house chores and all that."Yes, I'm fine," I slowly nod my head since I have made up my mind not to ever talk about this with her since it has to do with my relationship. I should try to solve it first before I involve her."Do you prefer I pack your breakfast, or will you eat at home before you leave?" She inquires, and I shake my head."Neither. I'm late for work, and I need to get there as soon

Chapter 28Alpha Miguel POV "Shit!" I curse under my breath as I slump on the chair, adjusting my tie that suddenly feels like it's choking life out of me. I'm frustrated, and I hate that I'm venting it out all on her, but I don't even know what to say."You are just a weak Alpha that doesn't even deserve to be a leader," I mumble under my breath as I rake my hair with my fingers. It feels like I'm drowning in fear and heartbreak, and I don't even know what to do."Why am I doing all this? Why have I been treating her like this?" I have been asking myself and I just asked myself again, but there seems to be no answer to the question I seek answer so badly.'You need to bring her now to clear the rumors, Alpha' as much as I want to do what Roan told me, I feel like it'll be unfair on her end. It's just like using her, and that is the last thing I want to do to the mate that was cursed to be with me. Yes, any woman that is destined to be with me should be cursed. I am a curse that shou

Chapter 29Alpha Miguel POV "I'm sorry, Sir," I raise my gaze to see that it's the same dude that was hanging out with Clarissa at the canteen the other day. Memories of that day flood my mind, the thought of him smiling at her that day makes me so pissed that I feel like roasting him alive here, but I try to control myself. How dare he flirt with our mate? Does he want to die?"Hmm," I nod my head and turn to enter the office, but I stop on my track when I spot something familiar at the back of his neck as he walks away. It's a tattoo I've seen somewhere before, but the memories of it are vague. My wolf whimper inside me at the thought of the tattoo, and I know that this is not just a coincidence. There has to be something about that dude."Sir, are you here for the files?" The HR's voice pulls my attention, and I turn my gaze to look at her standing in front of me. I quickly turn my gaze to check out the person, but he already left."Who was that?" I ask her after I glance in the d

Chapter 30Clarissa POVMy day at the office was almost boring since I had no one to talk to. Miguel has been acting weird since he returned from the marketing department since morning, and I don't even know what is wrong with him."Are you ok?" I had asked him when he came inside the office, sweating profusely, but he told me he was fine, and I thought I should let it go because I didn't want to look like I'm forcing things out of him.My phone suddenly starts ringing, and I check the screen to see that it's from Charity."Hey, what's up?" I utter as soon as I answer the call, but the voice I hear from the other end makes me freeze on the spot."Clarissa... I'm dying... Please come home," My heart sinks into my stomach, and my hand suddenly starts trembling as I hold the phone to my ear, waves of fear spark through me."What happened, Charity? Are you ok? Talk to me, where are you?" I spring up to my feet as I rush her with questions, but silence reigns on the other end, which means

Chapter 31Clarissa POV "Why didn't you tell me you were leaving the office, Clarissa? I was worried about you," Miguel asks as he holds my hands, but I just sigh briefly. It was almost 8pm, and he dropped by my place on his way back home from the office."I'm sorry. There was an emergency," I reply to him, and he sighs briefly."Don't leave like that without telling me, ok? You know it's dangerous out here, and you shouldn't be roaming around all alone without anyone by your side," He utters, and I slowly nod my head."Are you ok? You didn't seem ok back at the office today. Is everything alright?" I ask him, and he stares at me for seconds before he shakes his head, but it's obviously written all over him that everything is not fine. Something is bothering him, but sadly, he doesn't trust me enough to tell me what is wrong with him."Hmm. I need to go back now. You should sleep early, and rest as much as you can. I will pick you up on my way to the office tomorrow. Good night, and

Chapter 32Clarissa POVMy day was spent horribly since I couldn't even concentrate at work. I got a call from Miguel when I got to work this morning, and he told me he had something to take care of, so he wouldn't be present in the office, which made my day more boring.After spending the whole day behind my desk, it was finally closing time, and just before I walk out of my office to head home, my phone suddenly starts ringing, and I stop to answer the call."Hey, it's me, Alex," his familiar voice sounds from the other end, and realization dawn on me that I haven't really thanked him for the favor he did for me yesterday. My mind has been so occupied with so many thoughts that I couldn't even think of anything else."Hey," I reply to him as I walk briskly toward the elevator."So, what do you say about the ice cream date tonight? You can't say no," His voice sounds from the other end, and I sigh briefly. I don't know why he is insisting that we go on this date, but I just hope he's
