The Alpha’s Mate

(Elena P. O. V)

I wake up when I feel that I’m being carried away by someone; I open my eyes and see the ground moving. When I look up, I look up at Oliver’s stoic face. We are moving up the stairs into the bedroom. Oliver throws me on the bed. I bounce up and down a few times; before I can say anything to Oliver, he turns around on his heels, marches out of the room, and locks the door behind him.

“YOU FUCKING LOCK ME IN A FUCKING ROOM?!” I exclaim. I bang myself against the door in the hope of breaking it.

“M*********R, WHAT THE HELL IS THIS DOOR MADE OFF? GOD DAMIT OLIVER LET ME OUT THIS INSTANT.” I slide down against the door and wail out some more.

I look around the room. It’s Oliver’s bedroom. So many memories come flushing back, tears slip from my eyes, and I’m kidnapped. I’m locked in, and Xavier would be worried about me.

My eyes catch the window, okay I might be on the first floor, but maybe I can even make that drop or make a rope out of the sheets as you see in the old prison movies. I walk towards the windows and try to open them.

“HURRAY” I shouted in ecstasy. The fucking idiot didn’t lock the windows. I grin like a Cheshire cat and step onto the balcony. I look down; it’s not that big of a jump; I pull off my shoes.

“My puppies,” I whisper to them. I adore those shoes. I give them a little kiss put them down, and swing one leg over the railing. Right then, I hear the door burst down.

“What the fuck are you thinking,” Oliver yells at me. I jump up in shock, lose my balance, and feel myself fall off the railing. I try to grab it but fail. I can hear Oliver scream out to me, but it’s already too late. I’m falling. I scream in terror and close my eyes while preparing myself for the pain.

When I reach Oliver’s mansion, I see Elena falling from the balcony. I got out of my car and started running towards her to save her.

*Shit, I won’t be able to catch her even if I with my Lycian speed, she was too close,* I thought, and then I see Oliver follow after her and jumped down from the balcony. He grabbed her hand and pulled her in his arms, then turned and took the fall so that Elena didn’t fall and get hurt. I stopped running and sighed in relief.

“Are you guys okay?” I ask them while walking towards them. Then I helped them get back to their feet.

“Yeah, are you okay, Elena?” Oliver asks while inspecting her for any kind of injuries.

“I am fine, but what about you? Are you hurt? What am I saying, of course, you hurt; who won’t be after falling from this height?” Elena asks in a panic.

“I am fine, don’t worry about me,” Oliver said while smiling at me.

“But how?” Elena asks with teary eyes.

“Because Oliver is not a human, he is a werewolf, didn’t you tell her about that, Oliver, after you found out that she is your mate?” I ask him.

“I have, but she didn’t believe me. Hell, she didn’t even give me a chance to prove it,” Oliver explains to me.

“Seriously, Xavier, I didn’t believe that you believed in all this nonsense. The werewolf doesn’t exist in this world. They only exist in fairy tales,” Elena said to me while looking at me as if she thought that I had gone crazy. And I don’t blame her for that because we have always hidden our existence from humans for safety reasons and only tell them about us if they are our mates.

“Okay, then don’t believe me, but at least give me a chance to prove you,” Oliver said while massaging his head in frustration.

“Fine, then prove me,” Elena said with a huff while folding her hand.

“Good then, promise me that you won’t get scared and run away from me?” Oliver asks her.

“I promise, Oliver,” Elena said, looking angry and irritated, and Oliver started stipping in front of us.

“Hey, hey, what are you doing, Oliver?” Elena asks with wide eyes.

“I am striping. I can’t shift into my wolf form with my clothes on,” Oliver said while removing his pants. Elena nodded and looked away from him and then looked back at him again when we heard the sound of breaking bones. Elena screams and hides behind me after she sees a huge black wolf standing in front of her.

A few seconds later, Oliver whimpers and surprises me, getting in surrender form so that she doesn’t get scared of him. It just shows how much he loves her. An Alpha never surrenders to anyone but to his/her mate.

I could see she was scared but curious too, so I told her that he could never hurt her. And she has nothing to be scared of because Oliver loves him too much to hurt her, and I am here to protect her.

She gulped in fear and took a few hesitant steps toward him, outstretching her hand towards him. She slowly lowers it onto his head and pets it. Oliver rubs his head into her hand, seeking comfort from her, and walks closer to her, slowly forcing her to the ground. He covers her with his body. She snuggles into his chest.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“So this is who you really are, huh? Guess I now got a huge pet dog.” She crawls some more into him. I let out a snort, and Oliver let out a snorty growl from his throat.

“So, Xavier, I guess you are a werewolf, too, right?” Elena asks while getting away from him.

“I am a Lycian,” I said to her.

“What is a Lycian?” She asks me.

“A Lycian is another kind of werewolf spice. They look half-human and half-wolf in their wolf form.” I said to her.

“They look more like a primitive man,” Oliver said with a sneaker while wearing his pants, and I glared at him.

“We may look like it, but we are more powerful than any normal werewolf, in power, strength, and authority,” I said while smirking at him.

“Will you show your wolf form to me?” Elena asks me.

“You may get scared of me. I look scarier than Oliver,” I said to her.

“It’s okay. I will not get scared of you, I promise,” Elena said while looking at me with her puppy dog eyes. And I gave up.

“Okay,” I said and started to strip and let my instincts take over my body. I heard her scream and looked at Elena to see her lose consciousness, I quickly shifted into my human form, got dressed in my clothes, and ran to her.

“I think today was too much for her. We should let her sleep and talk to her about this later,” Oliver said to me while holding Elena in his arms in princess style.

“I think that would be a good idea. There are many things I wanted to talk about with you too. But we are all exhausted because of what happens today. So we will talk about it tomorrow,” I said and kissed Elena on her forehead after saying good night and goodbye to her and walked away from there. I got inside the car and drove home.
