Alpha's Claimed Mate Chapter 47
NATALIEDesperate to escape the voice of my sister, I thrash and break free of the nightmare. The bright light in the unfamiliar room hurts my eyes. I have to blink a few times to adjust my vision.The first face I see is of Anne. I can see her mouth moving, forming words. But, I can’t hear her.There is a constant ringing in my ears which increases in volume, the more I try to listen to what she is telling me.I feel the light ache in my body but the suffocating throbbing in my side and my head is gone.“ C…Hear… ” Anne’s words become a little clear.The next face I see if of Giana. She rushes by my side and pushes Anne aside so she can talk instead.Confused, my gaze switches between them both.Giana bends down and takes hold of my shoulders before shaking my body. I snap out of the daze. My hearing ability comes back in full force.“ Are you fucking alright? ” Giana’s screeching voice makes its way up my ears.I hiss, closing my eyes. “ I can… ” hear you.And my throat feels like

NATALIE“ I was going to let him live for a while. You know…torture him and get information but then you asked me to spare him and the switch flipped in my head. ” He breathes, his eyes narrowing on me.“ You killed him…because I… ” Tears wet my cheeks again, blurring my vision.“ Yes. There he was trying to fuck you against your will and instead of asking me to kill him…like you should have… ” He inches closer, letting his lips touch mine in a feathery touch. “ you asked me to let him go. ”My breath hitches in my throat. Did he really misunderstand the situation like Anne suspected?Enzo and Emilie leave my mind at once and the thought of having him miscalculate this situation makes me grab his jacket between my fists.“ He was my sister’s mate. ” I try to reason.Ryker’s lips twitch when my eyes lower to them. I swallow and glance up in the deep ocean.“ He put his hands on you. ” He retorts, sounding dangerous.“ He… ” There is nothing else I can say.My body shudders when he tigh

NATALIERyker pulls me out of the room. A woman in her late forties instantly greets us.“ Hello Alpha. Luna. ” She throws me a polite smile.As a formality, I return her gesture when in reality, I feel so awkward.“ I think it will be better if Luna rests for some time, Alpha. ” She turns to Ryker.“ Get back to work Luciana. ” Ryker dismisses her coldly.The woman leaves our way, letting Ryker haul me out of the huge infirmary. I glance at the woman from over my shoulder, knowing she must be the pack doctor.“ Why must you be so rude? ” I mumble under my breath.Ryker doesn’t answer. Instead, he releases my wrist and intertwines our fingers. I glance down at our hands and let out a sigh. He knows how to shut me up without even saying anything.“ Where are you taking me? ” I question, walking beside him.I can’t help but notice the way he walks, without making any noise with his feet. It’s as if he floats in the air, swift and sneaky but powerful nonetheless.“ Home. ” Ryker hums lo

NATALIE“ Bring them here. ” He stretches his neck and commands Zio.“ Yes Alpha. ” Zio disappears from my side and turns right from the end of the living room.Ryker plops down on the white couch and rests his arms over the headrest, stretching again.Is he out to give me non—existent blue balls? I shift from one foot to another uncomfortably.“ Come here. ” His voice sounds tired and burdened.Now when I can finally think rationally again, I can’t help but notice certain things. The look on Ryker’s face and the way he is acting…is almost like he is hesitating or guilty.About what? I can’t tell.I approach him with small steps. He grips my hand and makes me sit on his lap like a child.I gasp but don’t struggle to get out of his hold when he wraps his arm around my waist and rests his head on my shoulder. He brings his right arm forward and places his hand over my thigh, stroking my skin from over the cloth.“ I have to initiate you into my pack, love. ” He whispers in the crook of

NATALIEI sigh, my shoulders sagging. “ Take them out. ” I whisper. “ Zio. ”“ Natalie! ” Anne hisses as a warning.“ I am sure Alpha Ryker…” My eyes trail off to Ryker’s cruel face as I utter. “ has thought of giving them a place to stay. Take both my friends there. ”“ You don’t understand. ” Anne huffs, folding her arms over her chest.“ I understand. ” I glance her way. “ But, it’s between me and my mate now. ”I am saving you from his wrath, idiot! I don’t think she can see the deranged look in Ryker’s eyes right now. It’s almost as if he is on the verge of losing control and snapping Anne’s neck. I don’t want that. And if things escalate…I am not sure anymore if Ryker will listen to me and spare her life.“ Come on, ladies. Let’s leave them alone. ” Zio gets up, chiming as if a bomb hasn’t been dropped in the living room a few moments ago.With my blazing eyes, I try to convey the silent message to Giana who is staring at me, her mouth agape.“ Go. Rest. ” I whisper assuringly

NATALIETime seems to have slowed down a notch. I sniff, staring up in his peering ocean eyes. Ryker looses a dry breath and plants a kiss over my nose. “ You don’t hate me. ”Arrogant Bastard!I continue glaring at him. Tears stop flowing down my eyes and rage takes over. I hate how he knows about my emotions and still plays with them.Ryker caresses my navel from over my dress. Jolts of electricity rush down my body, heating my blood.“ I won’t forgive you for this. I will hold a grudge and I will stab you in the back when the right time comes. Don’t expect me to be loyal after what you have done to me. ” I rant, feeling his hands all over me.Ryker presses a firm, lingering kiss over the left corner of my lips and smirks down at me. “ Will this be enough to make it up to you? ”“ No. ” I deadpan. “ Tell me the truth…It’s the only thing which can make me forget what you did. ”I know he has a reason. A reason he is reluctant to share with me. Because he doesn’t trust me.“ Like I s

RYKER“ I told you. It was a horrible idea. ” Zio sighs.“ I don’t recall you saying that. ” I shrug my shoulders, glaring at him from the corner of my eyes.“ Okay. But we risked Luna’s life and didn’t get anything. ” Zio lifts his hands in surrender and complains again.I know we got nothing. I want to bark at him but I am not in the mood.My mood is ruined because of what my little miss pesky said. She will reject me? Fucking reject me? And then what?My nose flares when I recall the determined look on her face. I made her doubt herself when I said she didn’t mean it. But the truth is that, I could see the promise in her burning eyes. She meant every word of hers and that’s what made me want to snap her neck but…I like her cute little pussy too much to kill her.On the other side, Something had tried to escape out of her body again. Her wolf is surfacing and I don’t know why she can’t just shift yet.“ What about the witches? ” I question, staring at the North Forest Pack’s border

NATALIE “ If you need something, do let me know. I will be right outside, Luna. ” The man in his thirties tells me politely.I sip on my coffee and glare at him from under my eyelashes.The whole day passed and that jerk finally decided to have the house unlocked. He sent the same two men to look after me or more like keep an eye on me that he sent when Enzo took me. “ What’s your name? ” I question, putting the mug down on the coffee table.“ Jake Houston. Luna. ” He replies curtly.He is trying his best to not look at me and stare at the wall instead.“ What happened to the warriors from the North Forest Pack? I know you two were only pretending to be losing. ” Folding my arms over my chest, I ask.Jake glances my way and abruptly averts his gaze when he finds me glaring at him directly now.“ I am afraid I can’t tell you Luna. ” His voice is firm.“ Okay. But they are alive, right? ” He sneaks a peek at me. His Adam’s apple bobs before he looks away once more.“ I am afraid I ca
