The Alpha’s Human Mate

Read at your own risk.

The door opened, and a man with a bare chest, whose face was covered with black cloth, was dragged into the room and thrown on a wooden chair. Two men came forward and tied their hands to the chair.

Soon after, a familiar body with a black hood and a cloak walked into the room and sat down on the chair placed in front of the injured man. One of the men in the room removed the cloth from the man’s face.

“You must be so stupid to think you can outsmart me, you lowly half-human.” The man with the hood smirked, while the injured guy was just staring with no fear, even though he was scared.

“You will be exposed soon. You and your stupid rogue members.” As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he was suddenly hit by one of the men behind him, making him split out in blood.

And who will do that? You! His laughter sounded so loud in the quiet room. “I’ve been doing this for so many years, and I’ll achieve what I want, even if it means keeping killing. He said this before he groaned as if in pain. “Oh! I think I’m getting bored.” As soon as he said those words, the injured man felt an unbearable pain in his stomach.

He had been grazed in the stomach with a knife. He looked up at the man with the hood and covered face, who was laughing like a maniac. “I’ll see you in hell soon.” But it was as if what he said got the man more angry. He took the knife and kept stabbing him till he finally dropped dead to the ground.

“Sa. Sam.” She screamed out of her sleep, breathing so heavily while at the same time being scared. She looked around her and saw that Alex, who had been sleeping beside her before, was not in bed again. “So that was how Sam was killed. He didn’t even get to see the person’s face.” She thought, running her hands into hers in frustration.

She wondered where he went when it was not even dawn. She searched the whole room but still didn’t find him, until she finally wore her slippers to go look for him.

Christina had been so busy working and also thinking about how she would tell Callum about their next date, which would be on her. She thought of even chatting with him, but she didn’t know how to start the conversation. “Seeing him face-to-face would be good. He might start assuming things in his head if I text him.” She thought before finally mustering up her courage.

She quickly switched off her computer and went to the top floor. She took the stairs because of how nervous she was. She thought she would have calmed down on the stairs, but it got worse. “It’s not that he’s going to bite you, Christina. Just be a lady and go tell him.”

She finally took a deep breath and walked towards his office, but his secretary wasn’t in her seat. Having no choice, she walked to his door and knocked lightly, but when she didn’t hear any reply, she tried her luck and opened the door, but she was met with the shock of her life as she entered.

Callum sat in his office, working on some files because he needed to finish some important work on time, but he couldn’t stop himself from thinking about Darren and Maya. “Alex would surely kill him if he found out. What the hell is he even thinking?” He was still in thought when someone knocked on his door lightly. “Come in,” he said, to which the door also opened.

“Rita! What are you doing here?” He immediately stood up from his chair, looking at the girl, surprised. He was one of the girls he had once had a night stand with in the club, and now seeing her in his office got him shocked.

“It’s been a long time, Mr. Stewart. Don’t you miss me?” The girl asked, walking closer to him, but Callum just sighed. “Leave, Rita.”

But the girl just placed her hands on his chest before moving to pull him for a kiss, but the door suddenly opened, and a lady walked in. They both looked toward the entrance.

Christina. He whispered, but when he saw that, the girl bowed her head lightly and apologized, “I’m sorry. Forgive me for barging into your office.” He knew he had messed up. Christina, wait. He quickly pushed Rita away and tried to run after her, but the girl ran out.

He sighed before turning to the lady standing behind him. “Get the hell out of my office. I don’t want to ever see your face again.”

Mr Stewart.

“Don’t make me repeat my words, woman.” He said before walking to his chair to get a seat. The woman also carried her bag and left the room. He sat on the chair with his hands on his forehead for a long time, but when he couldn’t take it anymore, he left the office to go look for her.

But he was disappointed when he was told that she had requested the rest of the day off and had gone home. He tried calling her number, but she didn’t pick up. Shit! He said it in frustration.

“Alpha, we all gathered here today, all because of the dark forest whose barrier was almost broken yesterday.” One of the elders said, while the others also agreed in unison before Mr. Elliot spoke. “And we heard some people entering the dark forest.”

Alex just kept looking at them. He knew that the elders knew who it was that went to the dark forest, but they were all trying to be sarcastic. Ellie, who was sitting beside him, also rolled her eyes and shook her head.

She stood up and sighed before talking. “I did what was wrong yesterday. I went to the dark forest, despite being forbidden.”

“You knew it was forbidden, and you still went. Keep causing different problems.” Madeline said, but Ellie just smiled until she heard Gabriel say. “We all know that anyone who goes to the dark forest deserves punishment.”

“Yes, I know. That’s why I’m apologizing. I didn’t know what I was doing; it felt like I wasn’t in my right senses.” Ellie said, still smiling at them, but she sighed when Elliot said. “And that still doesn’t say we won’t do the right thing.”

Alex finally stood up. “Does that mean me and my beta would also be punished? I mean, we also went into the dark forest. What punishment would be given to us?” Alex asked, looking at them for an answer, but none of them could talk. “You really are so bold to think you could punish Luna.”

“But Alpha.” Elliot said, but kept quiet when he saw the way Alex was staring at him. “What punishment will you give her? Tell me. Give her beatings. Because I’m sure you’ll be torn apart before you can raise your hand.”

They all kept quiet. The Alpha was right; no one could touch a white wolf and go scot-free. “We should be discussing how to stop the rogues and capture their leader, but no. What you’re more interested in is gossiping about people that enter the dark forest.” Alex shakes his head in pity before he and Ellie leave the room, leaving them standing in embarrassment.
