The Alpha's Mate (GxG)

chapter Five

Arya’s P . O . V

She looked so cute and tiny leaning against the huge tree with her tiny body just folded up with her head on her knees and her arms around her legs. For a second , just a second I could see something flicker in her eyes. I couldn’t quite figure out what it was and the more I tried to decipher the look the more her eyes drew me in and mesmerized me. The look was gone in an instance as her face turned completely neutral. It kind of stung how she showed absolutely no recognition or acknowledgement of me as her mate. She placed her beautiful heart shaped face on her knees , effectively covering her face and hiding it away from me.

I could barely handle my wolf’s howling and growling…the noise just rang through all the walls of my mind and overwhelmed me completely. Oxygen filled my lungs making my chest puff up and slowly go down as I exhaled. I slowly made my way towards her making sure not to scare her or make any sudden movement to alarm her . “umm…hi ,I am going to need you to come with me before the guards come to forcefully drag you to the prison cells ,” calm and smooth was my tone as I fully approached her. I gained absolutely no response from her which was no surprise to me. “You really shouldn’t be sitting out here it’s late and you could catch a cold.,” I still got no response thus prompting me to go on talking . My name’s Arya what shall I call you?” there was still no answer, not that I was surprised. I got a better view of her as I lowered myself in the floor to sit and better talk to her and maybe convince her to follow me back to the hospital. I was far so as to not make her uncomfortable yet close enough to talk to her in a hushed tone.

Suddenly I heard movement coming behind us. The bush is started moving about as I sprung on my feet trying to be alert in case of an ambush, my mate on the other hand looked unbothered by the obvious signs of an ambush . She didn’t even move an inch just sat still with seemingly no care in the world. Growls… I could hear growling within my vicinity and just by the scents alone I could tell that it was my pack members, specifically the guards my father sent to look for the “rogue girl that tried to escape”. I should probably find a way to get her name just for the sake of it because at this rate I am most likely to continue calling her “the girl”, her ,she or even “my mate “I shouldn’t say that though…she doesn’t get tone called my mate…I might end up mistakenly saying it out loud. At this point it’s safer if I don’t use that phrase…no one should find out that she is my mate and I am not prepared to risk it.

“Future alpha we are under your father's orders collect the prisoner and take her back to her room immediately the guards spoke as they approached her prompted me to growl as theme as my natural possessive we will instinct kicked in and all I wanted to do was protect my mate I didn’t want them to harm them and I didn’t want any of their filthy hands on her I growled once more as they came tried to come closer to us just to make sure they stayed far away decided to mind link them to leave and I’ll take care of it for I had no intention of being suspicious and making them pay more attention to how protective I was of her. Anyone with eyes who paid close attention to my behavior could just put two and two together to figure out that she was my mate and I could not risk that happening thus I had to tell the guards to go away. My wolf wanted her safe at any cost even if it meant that I had to kill my own father’s guards. I could tell that one of the guards did not want to take my orders. he hesitated a bit forcing me to give him a warning growl. I growled once more really trying to intimidate them into leaving and demanding that they go far away so that I can take care of it and send her back to the hospital myself.

I waited a few more seconds just to make sure that the guards were actually leaving and getting further and further away from us. I tried to inhale and take a deep breath in but that was just of no help as her delectable scent filled my system just putting me in a state of wonder for a second but at least it calmed my wolf and I. Going down on my knees I made sure not to touch her in case that scared her slowly I inched closer to her, lowered my voice and gently spoke to her “ listen those guys are going to be back . if I don’t take you back myself ,they are going to hurt you and we both don’t want that so please just don't fight me on this OK .let’s go back to the hospital and I don’t want you to try to escape from them ,just stay still and I will give you food or give you water as well as make sure that nobody hurts you OK I’ll protect you. Now come on you good girl stand up for me stand up you go let’s go,” I could tell that she was weighing out her options . She raised her head and looked at me, trying to make sure that my words were indeed true and if I meant any of the things I said. I guess she must have seen what she was looking for within my eyes. My eyes focused on her as she stood up with absolutely no expression on her face just blank as usual . She arose from the floor , dusted herself off and started walking back to the pack house on her own. I followed behind her just glad that she actually agreed to walk back with me. I was not too far yet I made sure not to be too close just the perfect distance because I wasn’t sure how much more I could take any of this. I was near her, I talked to her, but still she didn’t seem to see the signs or feel that I’m her mate. Nothing seemed to Click to her. It was like all the things going on around her didn’t phase her. She wasn’t bothered she didn’t care about anything, just seemed like it was drowned out and was of no importance to her.

Deep down in me I could barely maintain my cool as I watched her walking in front of me looking completely detached from the whole thing. I got to the point of even wondering if maybe she was a sociopath or something along those lines for she showed little to no emotions to anything.
