CHAPTER FORTY-ONE.NOLAN’S POV.I only get back to my senses when I place Catania on a chair in the living room. Her face is drenched in tears, but she is no longer shivering out of fear. I hate the fact that it makes me feel relieved. Her pain is supposed to make me happy. I'm not supposed to save her when she’s in peril. I'm not supposed to be nice to her, but for some reasons I do not know, I can help but want to protect her. This is not of my own accord. I hate Catania and I will never want to save her. I took her away from those men under the influence of her pheromone.Yes, that’s why I did that.When I perceived her pheromone, I found myself feeling things I am not supposed to feel. I thought being an Alpha gave me the advantage of being able to resist her pheromone, but I guess I was wrong. Her pheromone makes me go berserk just as much as it does the other men. Her stealer ability is indeed very strong. Now, Nigel will laugh at me for being an Alpha who cannot stand his grou

CHAPTER FORTY-THREE.CATANIA’S POV.The mate assigned to help me get ready did so grumpily and I really don't care. The two women keep frowning and never miss the opportunity to hurt me, but I try my best to ignore them. To be honest, their maltreatment is the least of my problems right now. I have bigger problems in my life. Like the fact that my own mate is planning to have me mated with his grieving brother so he won’t go rogue. That is a situation I do not know how to escape. If we had angels in this werewolf world of ours, I wish the moon goddess would send some to come save me from this very disheartening predicament.Alpha Nolan is bent on making my life a living hell in this castle.“It’s all done.” One of them announces as they both step before me, ready to be dismissed. I understand their plight. Just a few days ago, I was a servant just like them and they bullied me, but today, they were sent to come serve me like I was their superior. It's confusing.I am even confused.Al

CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE. CATANIA’S POV. Alpha Nolan would never let me leave his castle on his watch, that’s why I had to leave at night, when he wasn’t watching and probably fast asleep. Since I already know my way around the castle, it was easy for me to escape the castle without getting caught. I'm running at top speed through the woods like an Usain bolt, tears brimming in my eyes and fear making my heart race. I know this is dangerous. There are wild animals in here, there are vicious rogues who could step out at any time and have me killed, but surprisingly, I will prefer to die than stay in that castle and be punished for a crime I did not commit by my own mate. The man who was destined to be my protector for the rest of my life. I'm not going to go back home, I'm going to go far far away from here to a place where no one knows me. Where Alpha Nolan will not be able to find me even if he searches. I have to rely on my self defense to get to my destination. I am running

CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN.NOLAN’S POV.I have been pacing about my office for almost one hour now with a million thoughts swimming in my mind. I am worried, mad at myself and confused at the same time. I just found out my mate is the girl whom I have done nothing but maltreated this whole time. To think she insisted. She kept telling me that we were mates, that her sister was the imposter, but I chose to believe her sister over her. I’m scared as fuck.I don't know how to go about doing things. I don't know if I should tell her I now know we are mates and spend the rest of my life begging for forgiveness or if I should let everything be as there.“Fuck!” This is frustrating!“Alpha Nolan!” A voice calls through mind-link, jabbing me out of my thoughts and I quickly halt on my tracks and close my eyes to respond. “Yes, what happened?”“It’s Alpha Kai, he has gone into a manic episode. The doctors are trying to calm him down.” The voice reports in panic. I instantly block the mind link and

CHAPTER FORTY-NINE.CATANIA’S POV.I have been hearing a gentle voice in my sleep for a while now. My eyes snap open, but I quickly shut them close when harsh rays of sunlight, peering through the opened window almost gets me blind. I turn my face away from the window, to the other side where I'm sure there are no peeping sun rays before opening my eyes, but the sight before me hurts my eyes even more than the sun rays had done.Alpha Nolan is sitting on a stool before my bed, looking down at me with a small smile on his face. I blink in surprise. I look left and right to make sure this isn’t a dream.Alpha Nolan sitting by my bedside.Alpha Nolan smiling at me. Those two statements sound too good to be true.“Hey…” He calls softly. He is still smiling. I am still freaking out internally. I look back and forth, left and right to make sure I'm the one he’s talking to. When I see that there is no one else in the room, which means he is talking to me, I swallow dryly and look back at hi
