Doctor Turned Alpha

#3

I woke up laying on something hard. I sat up and found myself naked but covered up with a blanket. Cold air bit my skin.

I found some clothes on a dusty floor sitting next to me. The place looked abandoned with broken windows, sand on the floorboards and in a corner, a firepit with blackened wood. It probably burned all night.

The yellow wolf from last night most had brought me here after I fainted. I smiled at the thought of her, something in me wanted to see the wolf again and it felt wrong. I can't be thinking of another woman as a married man. I tried to remove silver eyes from my thoughts and managed to stand to my feet.

I stared down at my hands, I'm human again. Thank God for that! I need to leave this place and head back to the hospital before Diane and the others would start to get worried about me.

I snatched the clothes and shoved my arms through the shirt. My hands were shaking so bad I could barely button it. Jeans. Boots. Didn't matter if they fit.

I burst through the front door and walked straight ahead into the desert morning. The air was dry and sharp. I looked at the Miles of sand and road, the hospital was that way. I was sure of it.

I started running. First a jog. Then a sprint. Sand flying behind me as the sun climbed higher. I ran faster.

In some minutes, I was at the hospital. I was expecting to be run for an hour or two before I could get here but it turns out for some reason, I was a fast runner now.

I walked into the hospital and ran straight to room 6, were I last left Diane. Diane was awake with our son in her hands with a doctor in the room.

"Mr. Xavier" the Doctor looked at me, "I was just discharging her since there were no complications with the birth,"

"No problem," I walked over to Diane side and sat next to them. Her IV had been removed. The door pushed in and my mother and Diane mother walked inside as the doctor leaves.

"Your back," Mary started, "Where did you go throughout the night?"

"I forgot something important at home," I lied.

"Let's get going then,"Diane's mom says, " we all need to freshen up and eat, especially Diane,"

I supported Diane to walk as we left the hospital, my mom holding the baby and Diane mom holding the baby bag.

"What about Harry and Lily?" I ask as we reached the car.

"They said they'll met us at the house" Diane tells me and I shrugged.

··

After an hour drive, we reached the house, everyone walking swiftly towards the house to rest. Diane went upstairs to freshen up and the servants would take her food to her room. While my mom and Diane mom took turns in handling the baby in his nursery room. I was left in the dining with lily and Harry as I had breakfast.

"Your a wolf now?" Harry observed, and catch me off guard which made me chock on my food, he asked on "How?"

Lily Also looked at me from across the table while standing.

"Is that why you've both been staring at me since the moment I walked in,"

"Yeah, we can smell it on you," Lily states, "but how?"

"I don't know, I was feeling kinda hot in the hospital after Diane gave birth," I said in between bits, " I went out for a run and my body started to change then I met a yellow wolf in the streets and later passed out and this morning I woke u-"

Harry interrupted me, "you met your mate last night?"

"No a wolf," I corrected, before taking up a glass of water, I continued," she also called herself that I think,"

Lily asked dramatically as she finally takes a seat "You met your destined lover?"

"No one is anyone's destined lover, cause I already have Diane,"

"You could always reject her the next time you both met," Harry suggest,

"But that would be painful," Lily states

"You both are wolves since when?" A thought I began to realize, changing the topic.

" I was a wolf from birth," Harry starts, " mom always knew and when I met Lily. Lily took me to her pack which is close to our pack,"

"Mom knows that we are wolves?" I asked, a bit annoyed that I was left in the dark about my family, "is she a wolf too?"

"No, she's not a wolf. She's completely human and had thought you were too," lily explains

"Then why am I turning into a wolf now?"

Lily says, and Harry nods in understanding leaving me more confused"The blood bath,"

"Can't I just tell her to leave my life and leave me alone?" I asked the both of them, but was ignored.

Harry walks over to the dinning book shelf and brings out a small book. " Read the last pages, that's how you'll reject your mate. It's not hard,"

"What if he later needs her?" Lily asked him

"He won't," Harry looks at me knowingly

"Need her for wha-" I stopped talking as I heard footsteps coming from the parlour towards the dining and that sweet scent of vanilla icing and lavender was trailing from the next room.

"She's here," I stood up and walked towards the parlour, Harry and Lily on my heels.

The sight of her in her human form was breath taking, her thick lashes brought out her silver eyes and her honey brown long hair flowed gorgeously above her shoulders. Her lips were plumy pink and looked soft enough to kiss. How could I reject such a goddess?

Harry whispered into my ears snapping me out of my daydream, "Reject her now, it's your best chance,"

"Mate" She says out loud,

"Mate? What does that mean?" I asked, " is it some kind of greeting where you came from?

I was tired of hearing that word been directed at me from her.

"No, your my mate" She explained in confusion, "we were meant for each other,"

Meant for each other in which universe?

"Lies! Nonsense!" I spat, "I don't know who's paying you to say all these things but I'm a happily married man with a child," I walked to the door and opened it for her, even though she came through the window "Now get out of my house!''

A cold hand touched my shoulder, I turned around and saw Harry.

"That's not how you do a rejection" Harry says to me "read the last page of the book,"

"You want to reject me?" Silver eyes asked between quivering lips, I feel a bit sorry for her, maybe I should just accept her. Maybe I can talk to Diane and work things out. The three of us can be together. Gosh! what am I saying?! How did she get in my head again?

I began to swipe through the book, to the last page.

"What's your name?" I asked her, following the guidelines of the book.

She hesitated but finally said, "Elsa,"

"Elsa," her name rolled off my tonger, I felt like singing a song with her name and making it my phone ringing tone. Focus. Focus. Focus. If I can just reject her and I'll be free from these thoughts. I began to read through the lines of the book. I snapped my claws and scored an X mark on her shoulder. Immediately something triggered in me or may I say us.

I began, "I, Xavier Davidson rejects Elsa as my mate"

A burst of wind swept through the house, the clouds outside turned dim. Pain and sadness slapped me in an instant.
