The Alpha's Mate (GxG)

Chapter three

Arya’s P . O . V

Stomach in , shoulders back….I mumbled on my head as I straightened up my posture and raised my hand with the tip of my fingers on the side of my head in salute. My father’s stern face was filled with raw anger and frustration . “What the hell am I hearing , is it true that you allowed a god damn rogue to stay amongst us? How could you let such a thing to happen in my pack! How did she even get into my territory, talk more of her getting so far into my pack lands. How did no one see her wondering about? Is this how you plan to lead my pack ? Answer me god damn it !”

Anger radiated off of him in bulk. My mind swirled with flashes of all the memories and moments of him unleashing his anger upon me. I tried to maintain my ground and not falter. I tried to stay strong and not break down with fear and anxiety in front of him. I knew he could just snap me like a twig at any moment . “just breath…breath,” I took in some deep breaths as I mumbled the word “breath,” to myself over, and over in my head. I was actively trying to maintain my ground and show him that I was strong and worthy to lead the pack . I was not easily intimidated but my father was a whole other case . No man brought about the magnitude of fear and weakness in me like my father did and no man ever would.

“The situation is under control father. The girl is in our custody with guards guarding her so she wouldn’t dare escape. No one knows how she was able to enter the pack and no one will tell us except her for she is the only one who knows the answers to all the questions you are asking me. I am more than fit to lead this pack but that is a discussion for another day . I will lead you to her so that you can see her for yourself . You can ask her all these questions and get your answers. Before you see her, I’d like to inform you that she is in very bad shape and hasn’t been talking since we took her to the hospital .I told the doctor to take very good care of her and inform me of any progress in her condition. I will lead you to her, you may follow me,” I said all in one go just not wanting to give him any room to speak or question my judgment . It was beyond Awkward in the hallway as I lead him to her hospital room in silence.

I dedicated all my focus on my breathing not wanting to show him any fear or change in my emotions. The closer we got to the room the more focus it took to maintain steady breathing. My heart rate was beating faster and faster the closer we got to her hospital Room my wolf was beyond excited to lay her eyes upon her beautiful mate once more. If I am being honest with myself I too was filled with glee at the thought of laying my eyes upon her for I was yearning to see her again. I know that it is only a few moments since I last saw her...OK about three hours and 35 minutes not that I’m counting .

I really needed to see her again just to determine if I was really losing my mind or she was indeed my mate. Could she really be my mate ? “Arya stop! Breath girl breath, you need to focus,” I continuously chanted in my head as I firmly clenched my fists together just to make sure that I kept my emotions in check . “ You do not want him to see you going through such mental turmoil. You do not want him to know…what if he senses something from me and finds out. No! He couldn’t find out . He shouldn’t find out that she was my mate . I would die long before I admit it to him. I would never admit that the rogue is my mate.

“Before we enter her room father I would like to reiterate some key points. As I have said, she is in very bad shape and not really talking as of now. There is also some inconsistencies with her scent I wouldn’t exactly know how to explain it. She is not a rogue yet I wouldn’t say she’s not a rogue either. I also agree with you that it is very peculiar and enraging that she or that someone in general could penetrate our pack lands to the point of reaching the core of our pack territory without being detected . I suspect that maybe there might be a traitor amongst our mist . Somebody that led her , directed her and helped her to penetrate and trespass within our territory. Those reasons are why I think we should be careful with what we do and how we question her. She might know more than she lets on and she alone has answers to all our questions so she needs to live father, I am begging you ,let this not be like the last time. You know your anger gets the best of you sometimes and you killed the last rogue that trespassed in our land without even questioning him. I’m begging you father ,we need answers just don't kill her ,” the words left my mouth long before I could actually think through them.

My blood ran cold as I froze . All my muscles tensed up with my eyes wide open… Oh my goddess what the hell possessed me to speak like that to this man. My view slowly moved from the pack guards ahead of us to my father hardened face with pure terror Simmering deep within me. I could see the pure rage in the deep depths of his black eyes. His nostrils flared and my breath seized . I could see the veins on his neck pulsating and that added to my fear but I had to swallow that fear deep down in my soul. I took a gulp and prepared myself to apologize to him for my tone of voice …worse I actually told him what to do. Adrenaline pumped up my whole system edging me to move out of the way and save myself from the impending danger but I had no choice but fight against it and maintain my ground. I almost flinched away as the man aggressively walked passed me with a low growl and a shove of a shoulder. I struggle to maintain my balance but did it anyway. “Umhhhh” I took in a deep inhale and said a quick thank you prayer to the moon goddess for saving my behind once again.

I quietly followed behind him whilst feeling like a lost puppy yet maintaining the façade of the strong and fearless soon to be alpha. It was subtle but I noticed my movements and internally judged myself. I was subconsciously fixing myself up and straightening out my outfit like am some insecure teenager with a crush . Ok …I agree I am nineteen years of age so technically am a teenager but that is not the point and I do not have a crush on her. I really hope the man keeps his cool this time ,I could feel the tense atmosphere and it honestly wasn’t looking as if he would be gently at all, not that the man could ever be gently…he stopped being gently the day mom died and in my mind he died with her .

A loud growl ripped the earth and shook me to my very core. I glanced up and there he was at the edge of my mates hospital room looking beyond pissed with the door wide open. I ran into the room ready to hold him off if needs be. My eyes followed his to see where his vision was fixated and what exactly brought about such rage from him when low and behold…. Nothing.

Just nothing…the window was wide open ,the bed was empty and so was the room with my mate no where to be found.

She had escaped!

My mate had escaped.
