The Alpha's Little Mate

Scared

BLAKE'S POV:

"N-no!" She continued to scream as Dr. Hyth approached her. "Please."

"It's okay, I won't hurt you, I just need to check on you." He extended his arms to grab her.

"D-don't...please. I'm so sorry." She cowered more. Palms going to her cheek, covering her face.

One wrong move doctor, you'll be teared limb by limb.

Dr. Hyth looked up at me. Alpha, I think I need to give her a sleeping shot. It's the only way I can examine her. He mind-linked.

I looked down at her.

I'm so sorry, my little mate. I don't want to hurt you but it must be done. I have to get you treated. Very well, I answered.

He nodded and grabbed an injection from his briefcase, hiding it quickly to his back, he faced her again. "I'm sorry, but this is going to hurt a bit."

I hissed a bit.

She was confused for a second as Dr. Hyth grabbed her arm and pushed the injection to her skin.

She groaned but after a while, her eyes are slowly closing.

Dr. Hyth sighed. "Alpha, I need to bring her to the clinic. Will you carry her?"

Without hesitating, I carried her bridal style without sweat. She's so light, making me think what abuse she has gone through. And I did nothing to stop that.

We walked up to the clinic. Me and Jake trailing behind the doctor.

Slowly placing her down the bed, I watched Dr. Hyth clean up her wounds. I ran my hands through my hair, turning my attention Jake.

"Jake, please inform the other packs that the trading will be moved 2 days from now. I will take care of it as soon as I'm finished here. My mate needs my attention for now."

He nodded, "Of course, I'll just go tell Leila that I'll be home late. She's gonna be very happy you finally found your mate."

"Thank you."

Leila is my sister. She's Jake's mate.

He bowed and left.

After a while, Dr. Hyth went up to me. "All done, she'll be healing soon. But I can see no response to her wolf, she seem weak. So her healing won't be as fast as how we heal, but she will be just fine." He went to look at his records.

"What's wrong with her wolf?" I asked.

"If my hunch is right, her old pack might have given her the pills that can weaken the wolf so she won't be able to communicate with her and she won't turn because by the looks, she has no control over her."

I clenched my fist. "How long does it last?"

"If she's been taking them since she was young, it's gonna take about a month until it wears off." Dr. Hyth looked at a calendar. "Alpha, the full moon's in a month. She'll be experiencing heat by then since she's an alpha's mate. And it's gonna take more effect in her since she still has no control over her wolf and her scent's gonna be stronger. All the unmated wolves in our pack will be able to smell her."

I gritted my teeth. "It won't be happening soon. For now, I just need her to trust me."

I looked down at her sleeping body. Walking up to her and held her hand.

"Alpha, she'll learn to trust you. Just be more gentle than ever." That made me glare at him.

"..she must've be traumatized by all the abuse she's been through so it won't be easy."

I sighed.

He patted my back, "She'll be fine Alpha."

I nodded at him, "Thank you Doctor. Please, mention no one of this for now. I can tell she isn't ready for that yet."

"Of course Alpha." We sat on a couch and waited for her to wake up.

"What's your name?" I was woken up by Dr. Hyth's voice and I can tell he was trying his best to keep his voice as soft as it can be.

I must've fallen asleep while waiting.

I instantly stood up as I know who he was talking to.

Her eyes slipped into mine as she jumped a bit in a sitting position.

"It's okay, were not going to hurt you." He was walking up to her. Taking small steps to avoid scaring her as I did the same. "We are helping you to heal. So please calm down."

I gave her a smile. "What's your name little angel?" I asked.

Her eyes went wide as she started to shake again. I swear I heard her mumble, "Alpha," before crying.

I stopped walking.

My teeth gritted as I punched the nearest table. "Why is she f*****g scared of me?!"

That didn't help because she cried even more. I instantly regret doing that.

My poor mate...

"Alpha please calm down, you're not helping." Dr. Hyth mentioned.

I sighed.

"Young lady, don't worry. Alpha Blake is your mate and he will never hurt you." He slowly patted her back.

She blinked her tears, "Promise?"

I fell in love with her voice. I stared in utter shock at the unfairness but relieved that she finally spoke without crying again.

"I promise." Dr. Hyth looked at me and nodded. Signaling for me to come closer.

Her gaze flickered to me, watching my every move.

Dr. Hyth left for us to talk alone.

"Can you tell me your name now, little mate?" I asked as soon as I reached her side.

She seemed to think about it before answering. "C-Claire."

I smiled, not moving anymore so I wouldn't scare her. "You have such a beautiful name." How I wanted to caress her cheek. "I'm Blake."

"Alpha Blake." She repeated.

I shook my head, "No, just Blake, little one."

She wasn't sure but still nodded.

I blinked. "...can you stand Claire?"

She slowly slid off the bed, her legs shaking before stumbling. I caught her before she could fall. The sparks instantly erupting through my body. "I got you, little mate. It's okay.

She tensed as I touched her. Probably because of the sparks or maybe because of fear.

"Let's get you cleaned up, Claire." I said in a low voice.

CLAIRE'S POV:

"Let's get you cleaned up, Claire." He motioned.

The way he calls me by my name is enough to give tingles down my spine.

He was towering me.

Why is he so nice to me? Why isn't he rejecting as his mate just yet?

I looked into his eyes to see comfort and admiration.

I nodded a bit as he led me into another building.

The hallways were empty so I'm guessing its the Alpha chambers.

"I can give you a tour if you want me to." His voice echoed through the walls.

He led me into an elevator, taking me at the top most floor.

I started to shake again.

What is he gonna do to me there? I stopped the urge to cry.

"What's wrong Claire? Please don't be scared of me. I promised you that I wouldn't hurt you. Please believe me."

His voice was full of reassurance that I suddenly stopped shaking.

And the sparks which is running all over my body was the proof that he is my mate after all.

The way he held me was all safety, even if a part of me was still scared of him. His smell was surprisingly calming and I just love it.

The elevator rang and opened. We stepped out in an empty living room. I examined the whole place, it was clean and very beautiful.

His laughed echoed through the entire room. "You love it?"

I then realized that I was smiling while looking everywhere. I shut my mouth.

We went inside a room. His scent's all over the four corners of the room.

He made me sit on a couch before kneeling down in front of me. I started shaking again.

"Worry nothing Claire." He slowly took my hand. "You can smile all you want. You are very beautiful. You can do whatever you want."

My heart skipped a beat.

Just hurt me already.

I looked down my lap.

He traced my cheek down my chin and made me look at him. "Why are you so scared of me, little one?" He growled a bit that made me pull away and cower.

He realized what he did and his face went soft again. "No no, I'm so sorry Claire. That wasn't meant for you. It only pains me to see that you are scared of me. Please don't cry little one. I'm sorry."

He sighed as soon as he found no answer from me.

I sniffed.

After I calmed down a bit, he decided to talk again. "Let's get you a bath, Claire."

I looked at his every move.

He went to a huge cabinet full of clothes. It took him long to find a shirt, boxers and some sweatpants before going back to me.

He gave me the clothes to me, "Here you go. These are the smallest I could find, you can use it for a while. The bathroom's that way." He pointed to a door connected to the room. He helped me stand up and led me to the bathroom.

"Call me if you need anything."

I nodded. "T-thank you."

He only smiled, sat on the bed and heaved a heavy sigh.
