Alpha's Little Vampire Mate

Chloe's POV

It's been two hours since Marcus was flung to God knows where and we've been placating Jason since then.

The atmosphere was tense as I bit my lips trying to suppress the screams trying to burst out from my lips as my eyes raked Lizzie's features.

She was beautiful and all but something about her didn't just add up especially with the way she was pretending to be shy. I could see through all that facade, she was simply acting up and I wonder if others don't see it or they're just blinding by her beauty.

Her eyes refused to meet mine even when I tried to apologize on Marcus's behalf, she just stood there in shock, with arms crossed against her chest.

But how long would I do this for?

How long would I continue to tolerate Marcus bullshit and swallow all the bitter pills he gave me to swallow because he couldn't keep his stick in his pants before I was born uh?

The only thing I've heard since I met Marcus were apologies and more apologies. Marcus had so much baggage that would take a lifetime to offload.

Now, my pregnancy hormones were not helping matters at all. I've been crying my eyes out since my wolf deemed it fit to fill my head with images of my mate in severe danger while my demon snorted.

With the manner of embarrassment I've received from Marcus today, I was supposed to be pouncing on him but instead of anger and hatred, my core was wet and I felt extremely needy as my mind replayed all the events of the previous night.

Being horny in the middle of chaos made me feel extremely stupid.

Lily tried to calm me down by rubbing soothing circles on my back but when she saw I wasn't responding, she joined me in crying too and hers became worse that we had to hold ourselves together in a tight embrace while the others moped at us like we've lost some brain cells.

Maybe we've finally lost it because pregnancy makes you lose yourself entirely. If I were to advise anyone honestly, pregnancy shouldn't be at the top of the list in your marital plans.

It's something that's supposed to be adequately planned for even though you cannot be hundred percent prepared.

But Marcus just popped a baby into me without my permission and it made me hate him more even though I was trying not to.

When I thought no one was watching, I retraced my steps to go look for my husband. He was still my husband regardless of all his mishaps and the moon goddess knew exactly what she was doing when she mated him with me. Though I highly doubted her sometimes because at this rate it was certain I'd die of high blood pressure propelled by Marcus.

Despite everything he had put me through, I still loved him to pieces, that man had me wrapped around his little finger and just one word from him was enough to turn me to jelly.

"Where do you think you're going, young lady?" Jason's voice stopped me right in my tracks and I slowly turned my back to face them, ten pairs of eyes staring down at me like I just committed an abomination.

"Uh... I'm thirsty, I want to get a glass of water" I said coughing and rubbing my throat for effect, but Jason's eyes turned a blazing red at my words and I took a step back, as much as I hated to admit, an angry Jason scared me. "Stop lying! You know that's a lie, you're going to search for that dog of yours." He said, his jaw ticking by each second, as his eyes bore into mine, he looked like he was about to explode.

Then, I knew I had been caught.

What was I even thinking of trying to lie?

Fuck vampires and their mind abilities even though I was one.

"Fine Jason!" I answered with shoulders slumped.

"I am going to search for my husband, it's been hours since you pushed him into oblivion, at least let me be a good mate and go search for him."

"You sound like a deranged lunatic." He growled and Lily gasped as I passed her a glare. She muttered a quick apology but Jason continued. It was obvious he still had more words in store for me.

"If I didn't know better I would say you were charmed by that dog but it's obvious you're just plain stupid." Angelo tried to chide him but he flung Angelo arm's away.

"My husband is not a dog!" I yelled and he walked towards me in a heartbeat and grabbed my arm violently.

His mate Lizzie didn't even do anything to calm him down, she just continued staring like a zombie, i hate her already.

"I call you a million names and called your husband a dog and yet you're pained on his behalf?" Listen to me little girl, you'll stay here and we'll wait for that manwhore. If he is a master in the bedroom and an expert in breaking women heart, he should be a master in the bush!"

I wanted to argue, but he glared again and I swallowed hard as he gently removed his fingers from my arm and I winced slightly.

The way he called me little girl made me cringe, I hated to be reminded of my age.

Muttering incoherent words as tears streamed down my eyes, I went to stand near Lily and Mark as I passed occasional glances at Angelo who had pity in his eyes.

Lizzie then went to Jason and wrapped her hands around his waist, he drew her into an embrace and I rolled my eyes as I gagged.

It felt so weird seeing Jason display emotions, it made him look so stupid.

I just had to wait till Marcus arrived which was taking so long by the way. If I decided to flaunt Jason's orders he would not hesitate to suspend Marcus in the air for a century as punishment.
