The Alpha’s Human Mate

He got back home at midnight after punishing the witch in front of everyone. Even though it didn’t soothe his pain and he wanted to do more, he just let everything be and let the people know who their rightful Luna was.

He walked into the house and was about to walk up the stairs when he saw a frail figure on the couch in the sitting room.

He walked back to the sitting room and saw her sleeping on the couch. He could tell that she wasn’t sleeping comfortably because of how she curled on the couch.

He went towards her and tried to lift her up. But the girl suddenly opened her eyes. She looked at him for a second before pushing him away.

“Why are you sleeping here?” Alex asked, ignoring how she had pushed him away. “Were you waiting for me?” He smiled.

Huh! No! I’m not waiting for you. She said. She did not go to bed because she was scared of being alone. She was the only one in the silent house, which made her think about how she had crawled out of her room to the sitting room in pain.

She stayed in the living room, checking the time for Alex, and did not know when she slept off. So technically, she was waiting for him.

Ellie noticed how he was staring at her as if she was lying. “The house was too silent. So I just sat here and did not know when I slept off.” She said quietly, not wanting him to find out that she was waiting.

Alex did not say anything; he just kept looking at her, which was making her uncomfortable.

She looked away from him before clearing her throat. “About that mate stuff… it was a mistake, right?” She asked. She had been so curious and worried since they talked in the morning. She had been expecting him to just come back home and tell her that it was a mistake and she could go home, but what he said next surprised her.

“Can I get a hug?” Alex asked.

Ellie blinked her eyes twice before. Alex! She was not expecting to hear something like that come out of his mouth, especially when she was asking about something important. “Does this seem like a joke?” She asked,

She knew that he was also hurt about what had happened. And she wanted to comfort him, but she couldn’t find herself doing it.

Alex just sighed before apologizing. “I’m sorry.”

They were both quiet for some time, until Alex broke the silence. “It wasn’t a mistake. Some wolves are destined to have a fated mate… While some just choose their mate.”

“Mate is like a partner, but it’s more than that because of the mate bond. Mate bond is like a mark given to the mate during intimacy. It’s given in the neck, and they work by making two people feel something more than normal for each other. He explained without taking his eyes off her.

“So don’t be surprised if you start feeling something for me,” he continued with a smile.

Ellie, who was already getting uncomfortable, suddenly remembered her nightstand. She noticed that she had been seeing a faint mark on her neck, but she did not take note of it. “So… that night… You gave me the mark?

Yes. Alex replied with a sigh.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

“However, the urge to renew the mark might happen when the mark starts to fade off.” He said with a smile.

Ellie gulped her spit and looked away from him. She could not say a word or look at his face; she just kept looking at the table in front of her.

“It’s rare for a werewolf to be fated with a human mate. And nothing has been found to break the bond.” He said only to notice the sadness and worry on her face. He did not want to tell her that they could reject each other because he knew the amount of pain she would be in if that happens.

And he also doesn’t want to let her go because he wouldn’t bear to see her with someone else.

“But Callum and I will look for a way to break the bond,” he said, so as to give her hope and stop her from getting worried. “So stop getting worried and go to bed.”

“Will you talk to him tomorrow?” Ellie asked.

Alex was a bit uncomfortable that she was eager to leave him, but he managed to reply her with a smile, “I’ll look for a way, Ellie.”

Ellie also wanted to leave right away. She sighed and stood up to leave. She was about to walk out of the room before she suddenly turned back.

“Um… I’m sorry for blaming you for our baby’s death… And also for slapping you. It was not your fault; the maids turned out to be terrible people. I was just so stupid.” She said with a low voice.

She wanted to ask him what she did to the maids that made them poison her, but she just left it alone because she felt that she would soon leave the house anyway.

“Did he arrest them?” She asked herself. “No. He’s not someone that can allow the law to handle it; after all, he is a werewolf.” She thought, wondering what kind of punishment he gave them.

Alex just smiled. He was never angry at her. “A warm kiss can make it up to me.” He winked, but Ellie only glared at him. She ran to her room before she would hear more irritating things from him.

In the supreme. Madeline lied down on a long chair. A wet piece of cloth was on her head. She had been having headaches ever since the whole drama.

The people and the elders of the pack have all gone to their respective houses. Only Madeline was in the room. Just then, Elena entered. “You sent it for me.”

Madeline rose from the chair, despite the pain she was feeling. “I sent it for you? Seriously?!” The woman said, raising her voice in anger. “Didn’t you hear about what happened here?” She was so angry that she didn’t think before transferring her aggression on the witch.

“A black witch has been disguising herself as Sophie all this time, and no one knows about it! Not even you, Elena?! How could that witch kill that poor girl and deceive us for a long time?”

Elena could not say a word; she just kept bowing her head in front of the angry werewolf.

“Now Alex will try to make that human girl Luna,” Madeline said with worry.

“That won’t happen. We should be thankful she lost the child. Because half blood is something we don’t want right now,” Elena said. She knew that there was no half-blood between humans and werewolves because it was forbidden. Only some wolves can have witches as their mates.

“All we have to do now is look for a way to separate them. The alpha will have to choose a new mate when he loses his fated mate.” Elena said with a smile, while Madeline only smiled and nodded her head in affirmation. She understood what Elena was trying to say.
