The Alpha’s Cursed Mate

Chapter 3

Helios restrained himself from beating up some of his pack that were causing the chaos. The man stood proudly in front of the half-wolf who was currently displaying a perfect form like a normal human.

"I am your leader." Helios' voice sounded like he was holding back anger. "And doing something without my permission is an insult."

"We are only trying to find a way to defend the Blue Moon Pack," one of the men with shiny silver hair said in response to Helios' words.

"Stop whatever you are doing. I will find a way to defend the pack that I lead in my own way," Helios replied, sounding unwilling to be denied.

"We are sick of your leadership," said another man. "Those rouges have started to enter our territory, and you are still calm, as if it is no big deal!"

Helios hit the wooden table near his throne. The anger on the supreme leader's face looked scary. Both of his eyes flashed, sparking red lightning.

"I am your leader. I was chosen as the Alpha for the Blue Moon Pack and no one can question my decision,” Helios said with a terrifying growl. “Go away and never cause chaos that will threaten our existence.”

One by one, the sturdy men left Helios, who was currently sitting full of anger on his throne. There was only one man with jet black hair who had been watching the Alpha’s anger in silence.

“What will you do next?” asked the man.

“I have found my mate,” Helios replied. “And after this I will make sure the Blue Moon Pack will soon have Luna, as the Moon Goddess hopes.”

“Why do we always hide when there is a wolf pack, Dad?”

Federich Anderson who was mixing medicine on the kitchen table, suddenly stopped what he was doing. The question from his daughter made him think for a long time.

“They are dangerous, Aleena. They can kill us in seconds,” Federich replied.

As someone who lived in a remote village, Aleena often heard stories about the cruelty of a wolf pack. However, Aleena could conclude that the wolves would never harm humans if their environment was not disturbed.

"Don't wolves attack humans if they feel threatened?" Aleena asked.

"That's just one of the reasons. There are many factors why wolves attack humans. One of them is because they want to find a life partner," Federich explained with a distant gaze.

The man remembered how he met his wife in the past. His wife was a werewolf who was trapped in the village where Federich lived and eventually fell in love with Edward.

Their relationship was forbidden, and that was the reason why until now Aleena did not know who is her mother.

"Is there a story of a werewolf who fell in love with an ordinary human like us, Dad?" Aleena asked again and made Federich lost for words.

"Come here and help me grind these medicines, Aleena." Federich chose not to answer his daughter's question.

Although confused because her father did not answer her question, Aleena still walked closer to his father. However, Aleena's steps stopped when she heard someone knocking on her door. Aleena immediately changed her steps and walked towards the door. The girl frowned when she opened the door and found the man she had saved a few days ago standing with a faint smile in front of her house.

“Why did you come here?” Aleena asked in confusion.

“I haven’t had the chance to thank you and your father,” Helios said. “May I come in and talk to you?”

Aleena was confused at first, but the girl immediately made room for Helios to enter her house. As the man’s sturdy body passed her, Aleena could smell the pungent salty scent of blood.

Helios couldn’t take his eyes off Aleena, who was currently serving food in front of him. Their gazes met several times and Helios could feel his heart beating much faster. His adrenaline was also going crazy.

“Thank you for your help in saving me a few days ago, Mr. Federich,” Helios said with his charming smile.

“It’s my job to treat anyone who is injured. And thank you for coming with a lot of food,” Federich replied.

Even though he was talking to Federich, Helios couldn’t take his eyes off Aleena. The girl was too attractive that it made Helios speechless.

Aleena was not unaware of Helios' gaze on her since the man sat down at the dining table. Several times Aleena deliberately turned her gaze the other way just to avoid Helios' gaze that seemed to have successfully intoxicated her.

"I am also very grateful that you saved me, Aleena." Helios said, and made Aleena's body get an electric shock at that moment.

"You are welcome, Mr. Helios."

Aleena's gaze felt intoxicating. Helios seemed trapped in those two beautiful brown eyes and could not find a way out. Aleena managed to lock him in an attraction.

"Can we talk alone, Aleena?"

Aleena's body odor was truly intoxicating. Every time the girl was near him, Helios seemed to want to suck Aleena's smooth skin and take a deep breath of her woman's body odor. Helios really wanted to have Aleena completely.

"What do you want to talk about?" Aleena asked.

The two of them were in the backyard of Aleena's house after Helios invited the girl to chat. The cool and calm atmosphere made Helios even more passionately enjoy Aleena's body odor that had been calling his soul.

The more Helios tried to divert his thoughts, the more the man could not stop thinking about what if he managed to inhale Aleena's body odor from close range. The man wanted Aleena even more. His desire was soaring.

"I want you."

Aleena's brow furrowed deeply when she heard Helios' sentence spoken firmly by the man. There was no hesitation in Helios' voice when he expressed his desire for Aleena directly in front of her.

"What do you mean?" Aleena couldn't help but ask.

"I want you, Aleena. I want you as my life partner," said Helios, this time with a serious look at Aleena.

Anyone would be confused by Helios' current attitude, including Aleena. The girl could not understand why Helios, a stranger in her life, suddenly said that the man wanted her to be his life partner. Helios' words really didn't make sense.

As a normal human being, Aleena understood that it took at least a few months to decide on a life partner. Aleena understood that people who got married needed to consider various things before finally deciding to spend their time with the person they loved.

"What do you mean?" Aleena asked, still frowning in confusion. "What do you mean by saying that you want me as your life partner?"

"Because I fell in love with you, Aleena. Since the first time I saw you in the forest, since the first time you helped me that night." Helios answered without the slightest hesitation.

Helios did not lie about what he said, except for the part where he said he fell in love the first time he saw Aleena in the forest. Because in reality, Helios had fallen in love with Aleena before they met in the forest. The man had loved Aleena for thousands of years.

"You might think that what I said was just a lie. But, Aleena, I mean it when I say that I do love you,” Helios said.

The man walked closer to Aleena, who was currently looking alert. The girl was scared, and really, the look of fear that Aleena gave off made Helios want her even more.

The desire flowed rapidly in Helios’ blood without him being able to control it. Both of his hands clenched tightly as he felt how passion was now burning his entire body without mercy. Helios lost control of himself.

Slowly, his body that originally looked like a normal human, began to change until Aleena's eyes widened in surprise. White fur with a little dazzling silver light now covered Helios' body, which had turned into a uniform. The man, the man that Aleena accidentally saved in the forest, was a werewolf.
