Alpha Xander

Chapter 28



My eyes dilated as it dawned on me that it was her, Lena, my mate?, as soon as she walked out, I perceived the scent right from her body, it kept filling my nostrils, giving me a soothing and sweet feeling, but as much as I love the scent and wanted more of it, I was mad about having a mate, I was angry it was her, Like, how could the moon goddess do this to me?..she is the weakest thing I had ever met and not just that, she is a pain on my neck and all I had longed for, was the day I will kill her, I had always planned her death and had made up my mind to end it all today, She had run out of the class and came right into my private garden, I had come running after her with the great urge of taking her life, I was sure to kill her instantly, but I met something different, I ended up with that thing I detest so much! Mate bond...

I fixed my gaze on the weak girl in front of me as she took a slow step outside from the inner part of the garden with her head bowed a bit, my heartbeat was faster and louder, anger was filling me up, I had thought I got no mate, Dad didn't have one and had lived his life all alone being the ruthless being ever known.

He had also told me the same, he made me believe I had no mate, and I was so happy to be like him, there was no room for any soulmate in my heart, all I craved was killing and the sight of blood with screams of pain, from childhood until now, I had been that cold-hearted beast feared by the whole America.

A deep grunt escaped my throat at the thought that she was also going to find out I was her mate, would also perceive my scent.

shit!

I hissed and clenched my fist bracing up to reject her instantly, I'm not concerned about the pains, I was also going to kill her,

My name is Xander, the heir to the Red Moon Pack, being the son of Alpha Xavier, I had to be more cruel than him, giving no space for romantic feelings which do nothing other than to make someone weak and act stupidly.

Lena's POV.

I had run away from the class with the highest speed my legs could bring forth, it was happening all of a sudden, and I was never going to let them see it, not when Hutton was also there, I felt it and knew the best thing to do was to run far away from everyone, how would I explain when they see me shift into a strange beast?

I had almost had my first shift at the class, it wasn't a normal shifting, I noticed the strange change in my body and fear had made me run off...

How was I transforming into a Dragon-Wolf with some Vampire's features, the muscles at my back were reforming and something like a pair of wings forming out, I also felt like a lake of fire was surging through my whole body, I was sniffing out little smoke from my nostrils like a dragon, I also got a sudden craving for blood just like a vampire?

All this had suddenly come up in the class, my instinct could only tell me to run which I did, and I was surprised at my speed, Hutton would term me a demon if he ever saw me shift into that strange beast,

I had forgotten today was my birthday and should be the day for my first shift, I had been keeping count for my 16 years birthday but the tortures I got since I came to the Blue moon pack had made me lose count.

There was no other place I was sure of meeting no one apart from Xander's garden, so I had dashed in there, running straight into the inner part.

But all of a sudden, it all died down, the strange urges to shift to that strange beast all vanished, and I felt myself shifting into my wolf instead.

"Lena, you are finally breaking me off from this prison!!!!!" I heard Elena scream as my bones cracked and each of my muscles reformed and enlarged, it was so painful that I cried and gnashed my teeth,

I felt intense heat, every part of me was on fire, my fingers turned into sharp claws, a tail formed from my spine, it was like I would die as the process went on slowly and gradually...

After what had seemed like an eternity to me, I shifted into a full wolf with snow-white fur, looking so beautiful and different from the others I had seen.

"Wow!!!!... I'm free!" Elena my wolf shrieked pacing around and galloping in great joy, I could feel her happiness and that made me grin from ear to ear, I got no time to enjoy my wolf form as I heard footsteps from some distance away and that was when I had got to remember I was in Xander's secret garden, and he was surely the one who had stepped into the garden.

With great fear, I had shifted back to my human form, panicking and fidgeting, I had roamed my eyes searching to see if I was going to see a different route to escape from...

I was sure he won't spare me for disobeying him again all because he gave me the chance of being alive yesterday,

I had kept looking around in terror to find an escape route when it hit me like a trance, my heart had stopped beating as I gasped at the scent, my jaw dropped in great shock.

How the hell did I just perceive my mate scent now?..

I had wagged my head vigorously in disbelief and quickly stepped out of the inner part of the garden,

I then felt his presence, the presence of Xander, and at the same time, the mating scent increased and got stronger filling my nostrils, it was the most pleasant smell and made me feel so good, it was soothing to my heart... Furthermore, I raised my head, and it fell on him, it fell on Xander, my wolf, Elena sprang in excitement.

"He is our mate!!" She rejoiced in glee while I stare in horror at the ruthless Xander standing in front of me like a large wall, my eyes went to his face and I caught his dark eyes which had suddenly got a glimmer of warmth in it.

"You....are...my mate?" He stuttered, blinking his eyes continuously, I could hear the depth of his hatred in his voice, his expression was a deep frown showing how much he hated this moment, how would the moon goddess play such a prank with us.

I was his greatest enemy, he is my greatest fear, how would I be made his mate?..he was going to kill me today and I turned out to be his mate?

"You....." He growled so deep that my heart stopped beating for some seconds.

I wagged my head and moved back as he took a few steps forward,

"I...think....there...is a mistake." my voice was low and deep-throated, the fear of his deadly expression was making me lose myself, I almost pee on my pant.

"You know I came here to kill you finally, you walked into my garden again, going against my order because I let you live the other day, now you just emitted the scent of my mate, you are my mate??" He sneered, and I sighed deeply, looking down to the ground. "You know I'm going to reject you?..you know I'm still going to kill you?" He huffed, and my heart was seared with pain, his words were like a stab of thousand swords, my heart was shattered into pieces.

I had seen many people find their mate and became the happiest Werewolves, mates are like the second half of a Werewolf, they are the source of joy to the other and would make every sacrifice to make their other half to be happy.

I had watched my father fight for my mother, I had seen them display all sorts of romance that made me crave for a mate, my father was always possessive and dominant over my mom, he would be jealous at the slightest thing, anytime mom stays more with me than him, he was always going to grunt and grumble in jealousy.

I enjoyed seeing them show those love, finally, I have gotten to the age of having a mate, I have produced my sweet scent and just like a curse, it turned out that my mate is my enemy, the same man who threatened to kill me.

Now, he was going to reject me and break the bond then kill me...

This is the most painful part of my life.

"You aren't saying anything?.. I said I'm going to reject you and then kill you later!" He huffed and I sniffed heavily.

"Are you really going to do that?..do you think your heart was going to let that?? I can feel your wolf admire my wolf..." I mutter and walked closer to him,

"He is admiring your blood!...we are going to devour you in no distant time!" He scoffed, clenching his fist as his teeth grit together.

I let out a smile and saw his eyes brighten a bit,

"Xander, the strongest creature on earth is my mate, isn't that a blessing?" I gasped and he scoffed.

"It is a curse!" He growled and brought out a silver knife from his pocket making my eyes widen in shock and deep sadness which broke me down, I whimpered and gulped. He was really going to reject me!

"I, Xander, the future Alpha of the Red Moon....re.ject...you, Lena..." I watched his breath change, I watched his eyes fluttered continuously, it was like he was forcing those words,

My eyes were filled with tears as my heart became so heavy, my teeth were clenched together to force back the loud sob about to escape my lips.

His eyes fell on mine, and he looked away sharply,

"I, Xander, the future Alpha of the Red Moon Pack Reject you, Lena, as my....." The knife fell off his shivering hand.

He shut his eyes tightly, inhaling and exhaling heavily.

"Please don't reject me" I sobbed.

"I can't have a mate!... I've promised dad to reject and kill my mate once I find her!!!!!" he shouted in exasperation, still closing his eyes.

"You can't reject....." I couldn't finish my words before he gripped my neck tightly, peering into my eyes.

"Who do you think you are!!" he snorted with widened eyes,

"I'm...your mate" I replied with a cheesy smile,

"No one should ever hear that!" he huffed in frustration.

"Oh, yes, my love, so you aren't rejecting me?" I gasped in joy.

"I will do that after making life a hell for you!" he growled and pushed me hard to the ground that I hit my head on a sprout root of a tree.

Xander's POV.

She shrilled in pain after I pushed her hard to the ground and to my greatest surprise, I felt my heart twitch at her cry, I found myself feeling the urge to check on her. F**k!

I'm I becoming stupid?

"Don't ever say it to anyone, never you call me your mate, never come close to me, I hate you!" I howled and walked away, it was clear to me that I couldn't reject her, it was so harder than I thought.
