Fated To The Alpha novel Chapter 20

Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 20
“Why did you block me out? And why are you here?” He asks, coming over to me.

“I didn’t want to be around them” I answer and he nods his head. His wolf sniffs me, pressing his face into my neck before licking it. I push him away, his fur soft beneath my palms.

“Sorry my wolf is a little excited” He says.

“What’s his name?” I ask brushing his fur when he suddenly ducks his head sniffing between my legs. I pull his head back.

“Hey that’s rude” I tell his wolf who suddenly purrs at me and I raise an eyebrow at him.

“I am terribly sorry, his name is Maddox, will you stop that” I hear him tell his wolf as his wolf suddenly drops on top of me. I could hear his embarrassment in his voice but he didn’t seem to have very good control of him right now.

“Is he alright?’ I ask out loud when his wolf suddenly pushes his nose underneath my shirt. I could hear through the mindlink him arguing with his wolf to stop mauling me with his big heavy body. He was rubbing himself all over me like a cat.

I brush his fur pulling his face to look at me. “Stop Maddox ” I tell him when he tries putting his head inside my shirt again. He whines loudly.

“I can shift back but I will be naked” He says.

“He isn’t so bad” I tell him and he licks my chin. His wolf voice suddenly bursting through the mind l**k startling me from how much deeper his voice is and gravelly sounding.

“Your wolf” He says and I look at him.

“Was that your wolf speaking?” I ask hoping Alpha Ezra has enough control to hear me and hasn’t been blocked out by his wolf.

“He wants to meet your wolf” Alpha Ezra says and my stomach drops.

“So are you going to shift?” He asks when I hear movement in the trees his wolf suddenly becomes alert as he peers into the darkness stepping over me. My fathers wolf steps out of the tree and spots us. He ducks his caramel furry head to the Alpha bearing his neck before suddenly slipping into the trees again.

“Wait!” I called my father. He stopped coming back and stopped next to the Alpha who was now standing over me completely and I had to push his fur aside to see my dad. My mother steps out of the trees and my father looks at her and she becomes annoyed growling at my father and I know he said something she didn’t like.

My mother ducks back into the forest. “I gotta go Kat, and deal with your mother” My father says and I panic. “But wait he wants me to shift” I tell my father getting to my feet. My father looks at me, licking my fingers.

“Just tell him, whatever happens, happens Kat, we have to move we will, but I don’t think he will ,kick us out” my father says before ducking his head to the Alpha. I go to chase after him when the Alpha’s wolf grabs my hand, tugging me gently and making me look at him.

I hear bones suddenly snapping and grit my teeth forcing my eyes closed knowing the Alpha just shifted next to me.

“The fact that your parents know you’re here means they brought you here. So are going to tell me what’s going on and why you are hiding out here”

I don’t answer and he sighs. “I’m starting to think I already know,” he says softly.

“Can you shift back so I can turn around?” I ask him. I hear him move but don’t hear snapping of bones. “Step backwards” he says and I do. I feel his hand wrap around my wrist before he tugs me down on the ground. He pulls me against him, his arms wrap around my waist and he pulls me against him so I am leaning on him.

“There I am now covered” he chuckles his legs on either side of mine.

We sit in silence and he moves behind me leaning against the tree before pulling me against him, his arm going around my waist pulling me with him.

“You can lean on me” he says, pulling me backwards, his hand on my stomach under my shirt, his hand is warm and my belly fluttering spastically at his closeness, and that weird tingling sensation. I grab his hand, moving it and sitting up.

“Are you going to make me guess, or tell me?” He says trying to pull me back to him.

“I should go find my parents” I tell him, pushing off the ground to stand when he pulls me back down.

“I know you haven’t shifted yet” he says, making me look at him. He pulls me against him and dread fills me.

“I’m right aren’t I?” He says pressing his chin on my shoulder.

“I have no wolf” I tell him and he shakes his head.

” Now it makes sense why you didn’t shift to get out of the bathroom, why you became nervous when I asked to see your wolf and why you are out here away from everyone, why your mother gave you wolfsbane” he says.

“You’re not mad I have no wolf”

“Yes you do, I can sense her you’re just a late bloomer nothing wrong with that” he says.
