ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 65ATHENA I took in a deep breath and let it out slowly. I knew I had to be careful with my words too. Aiden was angry, I could feel it. “Will you keep being like that, or will you listen to my explanation?” I asked, hoping he’d remember our agreement even in this mood.He didn’t reply immediately and as his silence stretched, so did the tension inside me. Still, o waited. I wouldn’t rush him. But then He turned around, taking his eyes off the phone. “I’ll listen to you.” He said and I let out the breath I didn’t know I was holding. Okay, he would listen to me. This was a good start.“Sebastian and I are just friends, nothing more. I met him about a month ago on one of my trips to the city and we ran into each other again today. Turns out, he’s Liam’s cousin.”I paused and watched for his reaction, but his face showed nothing. So I kept going.“The first time we met, we exchanged numbers and he sometimes sends me messages which I’m sure you’ve read.”“You
ALPHA’S Reborn mateCHAPTER 66ATHENA “I told you Aiden, it’s negative.” I hides behind him. But it was obvious he wasn’t paying any attention to me. His gaze was fixed intently on the pregnancy test strip in his hands. He kept reading the instructions on the strip and the kit repeatedly. I sighed.“Are you sure you did it right? Did you follow all the instructions?” He asked, his eyes filled with hope.He had insisted I take the pregnancy test since he had found it in my bag. He suddenly got the thought that I might be pregnant. We had had sex during the full moon so it wasn’t out of place. I was curious too which was why I did it. A part of me know the result would be negative because, in my past life, I didn’t get pregnant until I did my Luna ceremony. But the other part of me wanted to know if that fate had changed too.“Of course I followed the instructions.” I wanted to say it wasn’t my first time using it, but I held myself back. He didn’t know about our past life together ye
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 67ATHENA Rita was too overwhelmed to respond. She just stared into her mate’s eyes, obviously considering the possibility of what I was suggesting. She longed for it to be true, I could see it.“Go check it out. It would be a joy for the both of you and for the rest of us if it comes out positive.” I said to her in a mind link.“I’m fine baby. I need to pee.” She replied hastily and hurried off to the bathroom.I tried to focus on my food and pretend like I wasn’t nervous at all, but it didn’t work. My feet talked impatiently on the floor as I waited for her to come back with the result. Aiden placed a hand on my laps, letting me know that I was being too obvious, so I got myself together and dinner continued without anyone suspecting anything.Rita was taking longer than usual, long enough for beta Noah to start getting worried. He stole glances at the direction of the bathroom at intervals and when she didn’t come out, he pushed his chair back and got u
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 68ATHENA My senses were definitely sharper now. Somehow, I knew exactly where she would aim, felt the hair rise on my arm and predicted her next move. I knew she would aim her wooden sword at my right side even with my back turned to her. But I was faster, I shifted to the left and turned to face her, striking a hit on her side before her blade could reach me.I didn’t waste any time, she could fight back any second now. I raised my sword and slashed it against hers causing her to lose her grip. Her wooden sword fell with a clang and I used that chance to kick her down.I saw her reach for her weapon but I hurriedly kicked it away from her reach and kicked her on her stomach. She fell from the impact. In split seconds, I was on top of her, pinning her to the ground with my weight. I made sure she couldn’t move, for nearly a minute, she struggled to free herself but when she noticed I wouldn’t lose, she gave up and raised her hand in defeat. I had won!“
ALPHA’S REBORN MATECHAPTER 69ATHENA Jackie smiled too. She knew how hard I had trained just to be able to beat her ateast once. She helped me train too.“Congratulations Athy. You’ve done it finally. Your first time beating Lisa in a duel.”“And it won’t be the last. I’ll make sure of it.”“Good luck with that. You know she’s going to train even harder now that you beat her. She’s the top trainee. She won’t let you have it that easy you know. Besides, her father is a warrior and I bet she gets training from him too.”Her last statement was true. Lisa had told me herself that her father was a warrior and that she regularly received training from him, though I didn’t know when they started.“I need to go.” I said, remembering what was really important at that moment.“Don’t you want to come in? We have fresh bread.”“Some other time. Say hi to your mum for me.” I said, Alf hurried off.“Okay.” She yelled after me.I preferred to walk so I didn’t take my car to training. It afforded m
ALPHA'S REBORN MATEChapter 70ATHENAI was very nervous throughout the car ride. Rogue attacks were never pretty and they didn't stop easily because these wolves have been consumed by their need for blood and power,they were drunk in their thirst and didn't stop until they wiped out territories.I had heard about these attacks but have never been confronted by one. My mind went to my brother back at blue moon pack. Did I do the right thing by leaving? What if he couldn't handle it on his own? What if the rogues attack the pack and.."Don't worry, your brother will be fine. Trust me,he's more capable than you give him credit for." Ella said, probably guessing what was running through my mind because of my silence."What's the situation currently?""Crimson pack was able to fend them off despite their losses. The rogues are roaming the woods right now from our Intel. Everyone is tightening up security so their territory wouldn't be next."I took a deep breath and took this information
ALPHA'S REBORN MATECHAPTER 71ATHENAAiden's hands caressed my face and I closed my eyes enjoying the sparks that remained where his skin touched."Why are you suddenly interested in them?" He asked me."I don't know but something is pushing me Into checking this out."Who or what is that?""I don't know, call it a hunch." I replied,shaking my head,my eyes still closed."I think we still have some books about them in the old library-But," Aiden added when he saw my eyes light up with hope. He clearly saw my enthusiasm and needed me to be levelheaded instead of getting ahead of myself. "I don't know if it'd still be readable. It's really old." He was right, there was that possibility and that thought supressed my enthusiasm a little."Still, I'll take a look." I replied."Okay, I'll have someone bring it over.""I can go get them myself.""Baby,you know I'm not letting you out of my sight." He replied,sliding his hands around my waist.Of course, it was Aiden I was dealing with. He de
ALPHA'S REBORN MATECHAPTER 72ATHENAHe looked so radiant standing there under the golden sun rays that seeped through the flowers. The beautiful splash of colours the flowers created seemed to fade when Aiden came in. He always took my breath away. I giggled and walked towards him, hugging him from behind. He wore a black shirt and kept the buttons open at the chest revealing his muscled frame on a black trouser. His skin tone shone brighter with the look.Oh goddess! My mate was drop dead gorgeous."What are you doing here at my workplace?" I asked, standing in front of him."Checking in on you?" He responded and brought his lips to mine without notice. I kissed him back, welcoming him,like I always would."I heard Rohan dropping the package but I can only see the box here." He said when he finally broke the kiss. His knuckles caressed my cheeks still."Yes ,he stopped by with the box and I gave him the cookies in return. I asked him to share it with the others.""I heard that too.
