Alpha Xander

The door of the room finally gave way and I swallowed the lump in my throat, looking up, my eyes to fall on him,

He also stared at me making our eyes meet each other, I felt a real spark, we were in close range and it has been so long I got this close to him, it was making me shiver a bit, we hadn't got a chance to come anyway closer to talk more of touching each other ever since I became the Beta's mate, ever since he found his mate.

He had been avoiding me and also treating me like we had nothing together in the past, that had only made my craving for him grow so deep that I can't control myself anymore, his appearance in front of me was making me feel giddy, Now, I feel so hot and as I stared at his face, all I could think of was to kiss those lips and have his arms around me,

I badly want his touch, I enjoyed those moments when he kissed me and smooch my body, it has been so many years, yet it never left my head, even when he rejected me, I couldn't forget our past, It was still fresh in my head like it all happened yesterday. "You were hurt?" I heard him mutter under his breath, but his voice was quite faint to my ears, I wasn't listening to him as I was lost, lost staring at those eyes and lips which was the most charming thing ever,

But then, I could notice his unfriendly look, his eyes weren't exuding those emotions of care and passion like they had always had when we were together, he wasn't smiling a bit and even after asking me if I was hurt, he didn't smile at all,

His tone didn't sound like he cared, and It was more like he forced those words out.

"Can you stop staring at me and come in, so you get the wound treated?" He snorted with a dry tone that made my heart twitch, he walked into the room and moved over to a drawer where he got out a medicine box,

I limped In and shut the door, I looked around and felt the memories rushing in once again, I stared at Greg, but he wasn't looking at me, his attention was on the medicine he was preparing for me as he sat on the bed. "I'm sorry for the loss of your mate" I muffled sitting on the bed, beside him.

"There is no need of being sorry, she is dead and nothing can bring her back, I don't just know why she died for nothing, blinded with revenge that she didn't see the huge mistake she was making, she died for a weakling, a dumb a*s of a girl... shit!" He snorted, clenching his fist so tight that his veins were visible around his arms.

"You have to calm down, it will be hard, but you have to, I'm deeply sorry for the loss..." I breathed, and he shrugged without glancing at me or replying, his face was still hard like it had been since I walked in.

After a few minutes, he was done making the medicine,

"Bring your wounded leg," he said, gesturing to his thighs for me to place it there.

I smiled inwardly as I saw his fresh thighs which were quite hairy, he was only on a shirt and a pair of shorts revealing it clearly, I raised my gown a bit and placed the wounded part of my leg to his view, loving how our skin touched each other.

He gently applied the medicine which stopped the bleeding, he also stitched my torn flesh carefully, even when I felt not much pain, I'd always shrill to get his pat, and massage which he gives me to soothe the pain. His sweet palm was really affecting me, I love his caress so much...

"It is so painful!!!" I faked a sob and rested my head on his shoulder as he gently brought down my bandaged leg to the ground.

"You should lay on the bed and not on my shoulder" he huffed, but I grumbled and lay there, I was about to wrap my arms around him when he sharply moved away leaving me almost hitting my head on the ground. "Greg!!" I called out, sadly.

"I'm done with your wound, sorry for the pain, lay on the bed and have a good sleep, I assure you, you will be fine when you wake up in the morning" he shrugged and head to the door,

"Greg, are you really leaving??" I shrilled, swallowing the lump in my throat as I bite my lower lips to push back the sob about to escape.

"I'm leaving for sure..." He replied without turning back.

"So after many years, you still hate me?" I sniffed, fluttering my teary eyes,

"Huh?" He turned and sneered at me.

"Hate you?. I don't hate you, I can't remember saying that!" He huffed.

"Your attitude says it all!...what happened to the former Greg I knew about, the man who won't want me to feel a bit of pain, the man who cared for me more than himself," I asked, burying my face into my palm as I sobbed profusely.

"That was because I loved you as a sister, you had a pathetic life and I felt for you, I treated you that way to make you feel better after losing your parent, we were just friends, after finding my mate, you don't expect me to still treat you that way!" He huffed, and I looked up to see his face still far from a smile,

"I still love you" my lips spoke out before I could even push it back, I was so sad that I can't think straight anymore.

"I knew from the onset, I knew it when you formed a great hatred and hostility for my mate, but we aren't fated, you got your mate already, stop being silly!" He scoffed and turned to leave.

"Greg, the Beta isn't my mate, your mate is dead, don't you think we are fated somehow by the moon goddess??" I mumbled, causing him to turn back to me with a furrowed eyes' brow.

"Are you insane?.the Beta is your mate, he felt the mate pull, or was it fake?" He raised his brow, staring intently at me.

I rose from the bed and walked closer to him, bearing the whole rush of pain which I got from walking due to the injury.

"Greg, please stop those unfriendly looks, at least smile at me, hold my hand and talk softly to me, the mating bond was fake, I did it to gain access to the Royal pack again, so I can at least see you, I was dying slowly from not seeing you, the moment your mate died, I felt I should tell it all to you, we might be fated" I muttered under my breath staring straight into his darker eyes.

"I prefer not to believe all you said are true, get your a*s back to the bed and have some rest, you might be drunk, sleep tight and head back home first thing tomorrow morning, I'll send someone to inform your mate about your staying here for the night!" He rasped and took a quick step to the door.

I hurried and wrapped my arms around him from behind crying out my eyes, my heart was very heavy at his straight words, he really doesn't have a single feeling for me, I was here to spend the night with him, but I guess I was wrong to think he would stay here, it hurts me so bad at how he treats me now.

"Greg, please I love you, I need you in my life, I wasn't lying, I did all that for you, it is because I love you, why are you treating me this way, I'm pained!" I whimpered, clutching him tightly.

"The more you keep acting this way, the more I think you had a hand in the death of my mate, I don't want to believe that, I don't hate you but at the same time, I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore." He howled and, like a dream, he pulled off my hand from him and shoved it down.

"I treat you this way because your obsession is taking over your brain, imagine you trying to kill my mate in the past, f**k you." He growled, and I felt my heart shatter into pieces like it was stabbed by thousand swords,

His words struck me so hard that my feet dragged back, I wagged my head trying to make myself believe I didn't hear him clearly, or he wasn't the one who said it.

He let out a hiss and walked away finally banging the door to my face, I was left all alone In the room where I planned to spend with him, my whole body was stiffened, it was like my whole world has crumbled.

I looked around the room and the pain in my heart increased a thousand times, I swung the door opened and ran out feeling so terrible, I broke all the locked doors that led outside before the guards could open it for me, my head was pounding so hard, his hurtful words were resounding vividly in my head and the pain in my heart kept increasing...

I burst into a loud unending cry running into the forest, I couldn't head home, there was no way I was going to meet my fake mate, after all the sacrifice I made to finally have a moment with Alpha Greg,

I lived with the Beta to gain back his trust, I did many things to please him and tonight, we were both together in his room, he seemed to figure out I planned to use the injury and get close to him,

Just when I thought all was working fine, when I thought I got the hope to bring back his care and attention to me, it all got sour, it all got into a painful moment, even with my wounds, he didn't care breaking my heart with his words, he used the word "f**k" on me!!!! Oh, God... I can't bear this!!!

My cry went louder, not minding if anyone would hear it.

I was speeding through the forest In wolf form which I had shifted to, so I'd run far away from the world, my wolf was howling in pain too, I could feel how pained she is too after having fantasies about Greg's wolf.

The fact that he has no glimmer of feelings for me won't stop breaking my heart and spirit.

I finally got to a river and paused, I shifted back to my human form and plopped on the wood there burying my legs into the river, the breeze was sending cold shivers which should entice me, but my broken heart made it all of that sour. "Alpha Greg why!!!!" I screamed, clutching my chest.

"I can help you fulfil your heart desire..." I heard a soft voice and I swirled my head in fright but saw no one.

"Who is that!" I asked.

"I'm a spirit looking for a body to stay" it replied with a masculine tone.

"I don't understand." I huffed, standing up in readiness to fight.

Just then, I saw the pair of eyes and my eyes dilated as I recognized it.

The spirit is that of the powerful Demon King who was killed years ago.

"Dracula???" I muttered under my breath, moving back a bit.

"I can help you get the Alpha to yourself, only if you will do one thing for me..." I heard his hoarse voice.

"What is that?.." I asked immediately forgetting how ruthless and deadly Dracula was, all I desired most is to get Greg to love me only...

"Let me live in you" he said and my jaw dropped.
