The Alpha's Little Mate

The Room

CLAIRE'S POV:

The bathroom is so elegant, it was consisted with umber, gray and white colors. It was beautiful.

All the products were for men, that gave me an idea that there were no other girls in this room.

I stripped and went to look at myself in the huge circular mirror. Memories of how I get each of these bruises flashed through my mind.

How will he even accept this? I know sometime now, he would probably reject me.

I sighed before turning on the shower, discarding the dirt from body. Grabbing some of his shampoo and soap. I made sure to have everything cleaned.

Also borrowing some umber colored towel from the rack, I dried myself.

I hesitated.

My inner wears are all dirty so I didn't bother putting them on again. I looked at the boxers he gave me before sighing and putting it on.

I examined the shirt.

The fabric is thick so this will cover up my n*****s for now. I put it on. It went down up to my mid thigh.

The Alpha's huge. I know one hit from him will be enough to c***k my bones.

I bit my lip, pushing the urge to cry.

I tried putting on the sweatpants too. It was very loose and but I tied the tie and making sure its hugging my waist well so it wouldn't fall off.

This should cover up all the wounds.

Alpha Blake...

He seems to be nice.

I heard rumors that he's very cold-hearted and brute.

I shuddered a bit.

Is he just making an impression? Soon enough, his true colors will show.

But all these little moments with him, I feel safe and reassured.

The way he mentions my name, it can send tingles to my body. His gentle touch are very relaxing, and the scent that would catch my nose. I know it was all because of the mating bond.

But I still am scared of him. A part of me wanted to escape and a part of me wanted to stay.

I know if I escape, he's gonna hunt me down and kill me.

I grabbed my dirty clothes. Gulping, I slowly opened the door and peeked first to see Alpha Blake sitting on the bed with his attention at the door of the bathroom and now to me. He must've heard me opening the door.

I looked down and went out, clasping my dirty clothes tightly to my chest to cover my n*****s.

He went up to me, "You should've just left your clothes on the rack." Grabbing it from my hands, he went inside the bathroom.

He smiled at me and I can't help but smile back a little.

His smile got wider as he saw me smile back.

"Its my turn to take a bath now. You can go to sleep now. Just sleep on my bed. Or do you still wanna do anything?" He asked.

My eyes roamed the room and my gaze stopped at the television.

There were moving colorful characters and it looked fun.

His chuckle made me look back at him and blushed.

"Television it is."

No one really allowed me to watch. I would catch glimpses of the the huge screen from my pack but Alpha Jason would beat me up if he's seen me watching.

Assisting me up to the chair, he flicked the channels for me. Stopping at some cartoons that caught my eye.

I was too focused on watching I forgot about the Alpha.

He huffed a laugh, "I'm taking a bath now. Shout my name if something's wrong okay?"

I nodded and he walked away. "T-thank you so much...Alpha Blake."

He looked at me with his face lit up, "Don't mention it little one. But its only Blake for you." He gave me a final smile before closing the bathroom's door.

I huffed out the breath I was holding on for a while now and continued to watch.

After a few minutes of watching quietly. Thoughts started to cloud my mind.

Why is he so nice? He is making himself more dangerous because he is way too nice. Why can't he just hurt me already, at least that way it'll be less torture for my feelings.

I looked down my lap and bit my lip.

My life has never been good to me ever since the day they decided to started to abuse me. Everything that goes my way are bad and I hate it for that.

Why can't I just live a wonderful life?

I didn't notice tears already started falling from my eyes.

I sobbed for a bit.

What did I do wrong that I deserve this kind of life?

I curled into a ball. I have been crying for awhile now and my eyes are already starting to hurt.

The bathroom door suddenly opened.

I shivered.

He's gonna beat me when he sees me crying. 

I tried to hide my sniffs.

I can hear heavy footsteps coming towards me. "What's wrong?"

His touch on my shoulder made me tense up a bit that made me look up at him.

His eyes softened as soon as he saw me crying. "Why are you crying, my little mate?"

I tried to move away from his touch but he caught. He picked me up, sat on the couch and made me sit on his lap.

He slowly tucked my hair on my ear and gave me a hug, rubbing my back in a comforting manner. "It's okay, my little mate. I'm here now. You're safe here with me. No one's gonna hurt to on my watch."

I continued to cry as I just let him reassure me with his touch and words.

After a while of crying, I wiped my tears and pulled a way from his hug. He caught me once again and put my arm around his neck so I'm hugging him too.

"Can we stay like this for a while." He gave out a comfortable sigh.

I didn't bother moving so I wouldn't anger him.

My eyes went wide as I came to realize something.

I forcefully pulled away from him making me fall to the ground with a loud thud.

I groaned.

He came to help me. "What's wrong? Why did you do that?"

I moved away, covering my chest from his view.

I forgot I didn't have a bra on.

He blinked at me, giving me a concerned and confused look.

Soon, blush started crawling down his face. He must've realized.

He looked away and ran his hand to his dark locks. "I'm sorry. I didn't know."

There was a long silence before he spoke again. "I-I'll tell my sister to bring you some new clothes and other things tomorrow. Let's get you some sleep for now." He looked at me and asked permission to help me get up. "May I?"

I nodded a bit. Grabbing his arm for support and my other arm still hugging my chest. He led me to his huge bed.

Pulling the covers, he sat me on his bed and tucked me to sleep.

He sighed, looking at the space beside me. "I'll just sleep on the guest room." He pointed at a button right on the nightstand, "just click that button if you need anything. It'll alarm me to the other room so I'll know."

I nodded.

He walked up to the door.

"Thank you." I finally muttered.

His gaze drifted to me and he gave me a smile before turning off the switch, headed out and closed the door.

The sheets are silky smooth, it felt like I'm lying on the clouds.

I slowly drifted to sleep.
