Fated To The Alpha novel Chapter 106

Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 106

Shaking my head at Angie’s strange behaviour I walk inside to find Mateo sitting on the couch, Maddox sitting on the floor beside him, staring at him while Mateo side eyed him, they seemed to be having some sort of stand off. Walking in, Maddox turns his head looking at me and I raise an eyebrow at him. It was so unlike Maddox to be so sookie and I wasn’t sure I liked it, he didn’t feel like our normal grouchy wolf, I had grown accustomed to.

I walk around and I sit on the lounge beside Mateo, Maddox forcing his huge body on the lounge and laying across our laps.

“I swear he thinks he is a lap dog” Mateo muttered trying to get comfortable under his weight.

Maddox growled at his words but laid down, he ran the entire length of the couch, his tail hanging off the end.

“You know you’re heavy right? ” I ask him but he just whines at me.

“What did Angie want?” Mateo asks, resting his head back on the back of the couch.

“Wanted Ezra’s signature for the death certificate, I signed it though and she was dropping it back in for me”

“Yeah Ezra is going to take that pretty hard when he comes back, he has always tried to make sure he wasn’t like his father” Mateo tells me and I nod.

Maddox hops off the lounge before walking upstairs. “Think he is alright?” I ask Mateo.

“Think it is because of the topic” Mateo says watching Maddox’s furry body disappear up the stairs.

“He isn’t like his father, I have heard a bit about him, but Ezra doesn’t really like talking about him” I tell him.

“Nobody does, he was a piece of shit. His wolf was just as bad, you think Maddox is bad sometimes, he got nothing on his father’s wolf, didn’t care if they were women or children he would kill them when he got out. I swear his father used to let him out deliberately just to instill fear amongst the pack, used to use Ezra like a punching bag when he was kid would even make him train against his wolf before he even had one, my dad got ripped apart a few times trying to save him from his fathers wolf. No child should be forced to train against a wolf, especially one that has no control” I nod in agreement, I hated training against my mothers wolf when I was in Jackson’s pack let alone being a child trying to fend one off.

“ When Ezra killed him it was like everyone could finally breathe again, no longer walking on eggshells, the entire pack stepped up to help him run the pack until he could do it on his own” Mateo tells me. We sit in silence for a few moments, listening to Maddox walking around upstairs.

“What did Andrei have to say before we woke up?

You should have woken us when he got here, kat, that was pretty reckless of you going to meet him on your own” Mateo says, turning his face toward me.

I shrug. “Just that my dad abandoned him and his mum and left them as rogues for his mates, that my mother Katherine’s other mate raised him” I tell him.

“Just when we think there are no more secrets your family can possibly hide” Mateo says.

“Yeah makes me wonder if everything was a lie, I just can’t believe he would abandon his own kid, what a kick in the guts that would have been for Andrei, I am surprised he doesn’t hate me because dad left him and made a new family” Mateo nods.

“He may have in the beginning, he seems genuine though. I looked at those scrolls, will need to give them Mathias, he speaks a few different languages he should be able to interpret them for us”

Hearing water running I look to the ceiling. “Ezra must have control again” I whisper to Mateo who also looked up at the ceiling hearing the old pipes rattle throughout the pack house.

“I will go get dinner, you should check on him”

Mateo says.

“Wait, you’re leaving?”

“Yes, now I know Ezra is back and Maddox won’t lose it, I need to go check patrols, and drop this in to Mathias, doubt Ezra will feel up to it. I will bring dinner home, go check our mate” Mateo says

before getting up, he grabs the scrolls off the coffee table before bending down and pecking my lips.

“Make sure he is alright, I will be back soon” Mateo says before grabbing his keys from the hall stand and walking out the door. I head upstairs and can hear Ezra in the shower. I wait on the bed for him to come out. I could finally feel him through the bond and he seemed to be having a mix of emotions.

Hearing the water shut off around 10 minutes later, the door opens, a billow of steam flowing out the door before Ezra steps out in just a towel.

“You’re back” I tell him and he nods walking into the closet. I follow him, leaning on the door frame watching him.

“You ok?”

“Drop it kat” Ezra says and I sigh.

“Mateo went to check patrols, said he will grab dinner on his way home” Ezra nods but doesn’t say anything, just gets dressed in shorts and a shirt and steps past me. I follow after him only for him to walk into his office and shut the door in my face, I twist the handle but find it locked. I press my lips in a line before walking to the kitchen, clearly he wants to be left alone.

“He locked himself in his office” I mindlink Mateo.

“Figured he would, just leave him be, I will try to be quick” Mateo mindlinks back.

“Ok see you when you get home ” I tell him before cutting off the link. I go to the kitchen to make coffee before mindlinking Ezra.

“Coffee?” I ask him but I get no reply, yet I could feel him listening before he closes the link. I refocus on making my own when my phone starts vibrating on the kitchen counter where I left it last night. Picking it up I see a text message from a number I didn’t recognise before realising it was Andrei.

Andrei : Will be lunch time tomorrow, had something come up with my mum Me: Ok, how did you get my number?

Andrei: Am I not allowed my sister’s number? Asked Mateo for it. Now you have mine.

Me: No, of course you can have it, just didn’t recognise the number, will see you tomorrow then, hope everything is ok.

Andrei: Yep she is a tough old duck, see you at lunch time.

I place the phone down before making my coffee.

The next day.

Angie POV

“Angie get up” My mother booms from downstairs. I groan not wanting to get up before hearing muffled laughter. I roll over in my bed, my eyes fluttering open to see an ass coming toward my face. I shriek before it suddenly sits on my face. His laughter grows louder before the bastard rushes off.

“Mum!” I scream. Wiping my face, only to find it covered in peanut butter. That’s it, I was going to kill him. Seriously, who wipes peanut butter on

their ass and sits on someone’s face, I feel sorry for his future mate. I see my brother Myles laughing face, as he sticks his head around my door. 1

“Looking good sis, new face cream?” He says as I jump out of my bed.

“ I am going to kill you” I shriek as I jump off my bed. I chase my brother out of my room and down the hall skidding along the floor and into the wall as I reach the stairs. My brother jumped down the stairs to get away from me before he raced toward the kitchen to hide behind mum.

“No running in the house” My father yells to us as we dart past his office door. I tackle him, and he shrieks as I start punching into him, his laughter only angering me more.

“Hey what’s going on?” My mother says coming out of the kitchen with a tea towel over her shoulder.

“He put peanut butter on his ass and sat on my face while I was asleep again” I tell her before punching him in the shoulder as hard as I could.
