The Alpha’s Human Mate

She walked into the woods in haste, with a torchlight in her hand. She kept looking back and sideways to avoid being seen by anyone. The cloak she was putting on to hide her body kept blowing backwards due to the breeze from the trees. She held the hood firmly on her face with one hand, while the other hand was holding the torchlight.

She walked for some time until she got to an old and uncompleted building. It was the building Alex was keeping Gregory, the were wolf, that almost killed Ellie.

A man came out of the house. Without saying anything to each other, she raised her head up a bit from the hood and looked at the man.

Sophie took an envelope from her back pocket and gave it to the man. The man, who also understood what she came for, collected the envelope and went into the house while Sophie waited outside.

After some time, the man came back with Gregory, whose hands and legs were chained. Blood was dripping out of the various cuts he had on his body and face.

“You only have two minutes.” The man said to Sophie before he moved away from them, but not far away. He only allowed Sophie to see the prisoner because of the money she gave him; he knew the kind of trouble he could get into if anyone saw him, and the fact that he had deceived his fellow mates that were supposed to watch the man.

“How are you doing?” She asked. She knew she had to come and see the man before he confessed everything to Alex.

“What a stupid question! Do I look like I’m doing okay to you?” The man questioned him back. “It seems you’ve gotten even stupider.”

“How dare you talk to me that way?” Sophie fired back at him, but the man suddenly burst into laughter. “You of all people know what the alpha would do to you if I told him you sent me to hurt the human girl; he was quite protective of her, don’t you think?”

“Aren’t you soon to be Luna? Let’s see what happens to your position after I reveal everything.” The man continued with a smile.

“What do you want?” Sophie asked.

“Do I need to explain that again?” The man asked, raising his voice at her. “You should also be in this situation I’m in right now, but you’re moving around like a free bird. Get me out of here!”

Sophie sighed and said, “I’ll get you out. Just give me three days.” She knew there was no possible way to get him out without Alex or Callum knowing, and arguing with this man would only bring her more problems. She just had to do it the way she had planned to prevent the man from exposing her.

“It seems you don’t know me. Get me out of here within twenty-four hours, or else you know what will happen.” Gregory said.

The man who was watching them talk, moved closer to them and dragged Gregory back to the house before coming back to where Sophie was standing.

“End him before he gets any chance to blabber.”

The next morning. Ellie woke up and got ready early. She spent almost the whole night thinking of how she would continue living with Alex, especially how stubborn he was about her going back home.

She finally decided to act just the way the devil would. By striking a deal with him.

The maids brought her breakfast to her room, but she asked them to take it back so that she could eat it in the dining room with Alex.

The maids were surprised at how her mood changed overnight. They even thought maybe it was part of her plan to run away, but none of them could say anything; they just had to obey her.

She went downstairs and waited in the dining room patiently because Alex was not there yet. The maids placed the food in front of her, but she did not touch it. She was just looking at the food on the table, but her mind was somewhere else.

She waited for about a few minutes before she finally heard footsteps coming from the stairs. She looked up and saw that he was the one. She could not understand why her heart was beating so fast; perhaps she was just scared. She sighed lightly and said, “Why don’t you join me for breakfast?”

Alex, who has been thinking of how to go to Ellie’s room to maybe force her to eat breakfast, was so surprised to see her in the dining room. He walked up to her and said it with a smile. “You’re… here.” He was so surprised that he even thought the girl was up to something.

“Sit down.” Ellie commanded without answering his question.

“Are you okay?” Alex asked, dragging a chair slowly to sit on. He even sat down far away from her because he thought the girl was planning something. “Did Ellie hit her head on the wall? I can’t even hear her thoughts.” He said to himself,.

“Let’s eat.” She said, but she remembered that Alex had never eaten food in the house before. She just gave a small smile and dug into her breakfast, while Alex was just watching her every move.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

After some time, she said, still eating. “Don’t you think we should sign another contract? Or let me just say, Make a deal.”

“Deal? What are you saying?” Alex asked with curiosity.

Ellie finally looked up to him; she dropped her cutlery and drank a cup of water before saying. “You formed a contract with me when you found out about my pregnancy. Shouldn’t I also form a contract after finding out you’re a werewolf?”

“But as for my own case, let’s just strike a deal.” Ellie gave him a smile that looked evil and sweet at the same time.

Alex was quiet for some time; he did not even know how or where to start. He never for once thought Ellie would try to strike a deal with him.

Noticing that he was fighting with his words, Ellie continued. “The deal is quite simple. You’re a werewolf. Fine. I have nothing to do with what kind of creature you are. What I want is freedom.” She said, stopping for some time before she continued.

“I need to get your permission before going out. I can’t see people without your approval. I ate in the same office as you. It needs to stop. I’ll keep living in this house till I give birth, but you need to stop everything I just said.”

“And what if I refuse?” Alex asked immediately after she finished talking.

“You don’t have any choice but to accept. And if you refuse, I’ll have no choice but to keep planning on running far away, even if it means hurting myself or the baby.

Alex knew there was nowhere she could run to in the world where he wouldn’t find her, but when he heard her talk about hurting herself with no emotion visible on her face, and the fact that he could not hear what she was thinking about, he said in frustration, looking up at her.

“Everything I’m doing is all for your safety.” Alex said.

“That doesn’t look like safety to me.” She whispered to herself, but Alex heard her clearly. “I’ll be fine. Moreover, I’ll have my chauffeur with me.”

Alex stood up and turned his back to her. He ran his hands into his hair before turning to her with an evil smile. “Fine. I’ll allow you only on one condition.” A guard will follow you everywhere.

“A guard? That’s simple. I guess the deal is sealed then.” Ellie said before standing up to leave, but stopped when she heard.

“I didn’t say that was the condition.”

She turned back immediately. “That’s not the condition? So what is the condition?” Ellie asked, but felt scared by the creepy smile he was giving her.

He moved closer to her, but Ellie did not move back so as to prove to him that she was not scared. He brought his face closer to hers and whispered into her ear. “I get to kiss you anytime and wherever I want without you complaining.”

“Kiss?! You pervert! What kind of condition is that? Is this a joke to you?” Ellie pushed him and glared at him angrily. She never expected him to request something like that, but she wasn’t surprised.

“Do I look like I’m making a joke? It seems like you don’t want what you’re asking me for.” He said with a smile and walked forward to leave the room.

Ellie did not want to accept the condition, but she also wants her freedom. Without thinking much about it, she said. “Hey! Wait. I accept your condition.”
