The Alpha’s Human Mate

Callum sat down in the room, sipping his drink. His eyes had been on one of the guys gambling in the room.

“What a fool!” He mocked, shaking his head as the guy had just lost another million dollars. He had been gambling for over an hour, but he hadn’t won anything; instead, he was losing a lot of money.

Callum stopped drinking when he saw that the guy was fighting and arguing with one of the men when he had just lost. The other man won, and his boys beat him up and threw him out.

Callum quickly stood up and followed the guy. He followed him for some time, until the guy felt suspicious and looked back. Without seeing who was following him, he ran across the street towards an alley.

“Shit!” He also came out of his hiding spot and ran after him. He followed him as he ran through the dark alley. If it were a normal human, he would have caught him, but he was a rogue werewolf, which made him run faster.

The rogue threw dumpsters in his way as he ran, but Callum dodged them and passed through another route to block him in the front. He blocked him and crashed him against the wall.

“Let go of me, man! Who do you think you are?!” The guy screamed. Callum did not let him finish; he punched him in the face till blood started coming out of his nose and mouth.

“What do you want from me? Let me go!” The rogue spat out blood.

“Why don’t you start by telling me who your leader is?” Callum retorted. He knew that the guy was a secretive rogue, and there must be a reason for that.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, man.” The guy said this before putting his hands on his chest to push him away. But Alex punched him in the stomach. “You better start talking. I know who you are. Who is the leader of the rogues?!”

Leader of the rogues?! He scoffed. “You think I know who he or she is?” He laughed. “You’ve taken the wrong guy, man. You should go after the second-in-command instead.”

“Who is the second-in-command?” Callum asked.

“I don’t know who they are, but there are two. And they have a tattoo of a scorpion on their wrist.” The man said this, wincing in pain.

“Tattoo? Have you ever seen any of them before?” He asked, but before the guy could talk, he heard.

Mr Stewart! He turned back slowly to check where the voice came from. “It’s you. What are you doing here?” She asked, but was shocked when she saw him pinning a man to the wall.

You! She said, but before she could finish her words, The man that was being pinned to the wall suddenly pushed Alex away and dashed towards her. She fell to the ground as the man pushed her to the floor.

The rogue ran, and Callum followed him, but he stopped when he saw the girl wincing in pain. He turned back and groaned before going back to her.

“What are you looking for so late?! Don’t you ever think before going out of your house?!” He asked with frustration as he helped her up. He was angry not because of the rogue that escaped, but because she was not always caring about her safety.

Christina stood up and held his arm for support. “Thank you.” She said as she removed her hand from his arm. Without saying anything to him again, she took a step forward to leave, but Callum grabbed her hand. “Where are you going?” He knew that the route she was about to take was not to her house.

“I want to get something from the nearest store.” She said this before removing his hand from her wrist. She took another step forward, but winced in pain from her sprained ankle.

Callum looked at her for some time as she walked in pain before dashing towards her. She screamed as he carried her in his arms all of a sudden. “What are you doing? Let go of me!” She screamed, but Callum did not listen to her.

“I’ll help you get whatever you want from the store.” He said so, but Christina quickly disagreed. “No. It’s fine. I’ll just buy it tomorrow.” She knew that he wouldn’t listen if she told him she would go herself, and she was ashamed to send him to get her sanitary pads.

“Then let’s go home.” Her eyebrows raised in shock as she heard what he said. She felt her cheeks getting hot. “Let me down.” She said calmly, and the guy also nodded his head before dropping her.

He wanted to go back to the training room, but he couldn’t leave her alone. He put her hand on his arm and helped her to walk.

None of them said anything to each other. They just walked in silence, but Christina was fighting herself to talk. “Violence is not the right way to solve things. You should have reported him to the police.” She had been fighting herself to tell him; she was surprised when she saw her boss hitting a man in an alley.

“Excuse me?” He looked at her before stopping.

Christina also looked at him. “That guy. You could have just reported him to the police instead of hitting him. What if something happens to him and you get arrested?”

“Were you worried that I might get arrested?” Callum asked, looking at her intently.

“Of course… I mean… no.”I’m just saying that you should stop hitting people.” She said this before looking away out of embarrassment.

“You would have done the same if you knew who he was,” Callum said before moving again.

“Who is he?” Christina asked.

“You don’t need to know.” Callum replied with a smile, while Christina also pouted her lips and kept quiet. They finally got to her house.

Callum made sure he saw her go in before going back. He took his phone and dialed Alex’s number. “Hello. We need to talk.” He said this before hanging up.

*****

She ran to her room in anger. “How could you do this, Ellie?” She screamed as she pulled her hair. She was angry at herself for kissing him back, when all she wanted was to end the contract between them and live in peace without remembering anything about him.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

I need to end this as soon as possible. She said. She took her phone and dialed Maya’s number.

“Hello. Let’s go to the dark forest tomorrow.” She said it without waiting for her reply.

“Did it happen again?” Maya asked because of her sudden change.

“No. The sooner we go, the better it will be.” She said this before Maya finally accepted. She didn’t care if Alex did not go anywhere the next day. All she cares about is finding out the truth.
