Fated To The Alpha novel Chapter 35

Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 35

Katya POV

My entire body felt like it was hit by a truck then reversed over. I felt so stiff, like I hadn’t moved much. Forcing my eyes open, I groan rolling on my side only to not recognise the room I was in. This isn’t the Alpha’s room?

I sit up looking around, only to see the Alpha’s head next to me and I realise I am in a Hospital room of sorts. Blinking lights on different monitors flashing and beeping. Looking around Mateo was asleep in a chair at my feet. Wait, how did I get here? Am I missing something?

I lift my hand brushing it through the Alpha’s hair before cupping his cheek. He kisses my palm and I feel tingles rush over it. “I love you” he mumbles in his sleep and I chuckle at his unknowing words in his sleep. His head snapping up as I laugh at his sleep talking.

“Kat!” He gasps, staring at me before clamping his hands on my face. He squished my cheeks together and I could tell he was still half asleep as his eyes looked glazed over still. My lips must resemble a fish as he squeezed my face between his palms like he couldn’t believe I was really here. Why was he acting like that?

“You’re squishing my face” I try to tell him when his eyes widen in recognition at the sound of my voice. Didn’t he recognise me, or was he still half asleep?

“Kat!” He says letting my face go. I stretch my face only for his lips to crash down on mine almost frantically.

I shove him back as his tongue invades my mouth before giving up and kissing him back. He releases me and I suck in the much needed air he deprived me of.

“Geez what’s got into you, you’re acting like I just dropped dead” I tell him and he falls silent just staring at me before dropping his head and grabbing my hand, he kisses my fingertips.

“What is it?” I ask him worried about his severe affections, usually he wasn’t clingy like that.

“Kat you’re awake,” Mateo says as he walks over to me, Mateo bends down and kisses my head giving me a side hug.

“Yeah why wouldn’t I be?” I ask him.

“You don’t remember the Rogues?” Mateo asks, looking at me. The rogues, the rogues, I rack my brain till a light globe goes on in my head, everything suddenly coming back suffocating me. It wasn’t a dream. It wasn’t a dream.

The rogues were real, it wasn’t some nightmare my overactive imagination conjured up? Jasmine was dead? All that really happened? My mind was reeling as I tried to piece together the events but all I could see was Jasmine’s vacant eyes staring back at me as I looked down at her blood soaked body lying motionless on the floor.

“Jasmine!” I gasp, unable to breathe. My friend, my friend was dead and what about Angie?

“Kat calm down, just breathe” Ezra says, cupping my face with his hand.

“No Jasmine, Jasmine” I tell him frantically. Does he not remember?

“Kat, calm down, she is alive, she is okay” Ezra tells me.

“No she was dead, I saw her, she…. she….they tore out her neck.. There was so much blood” I told him before breaking down. She was gone, she died, they killed her, killed my friend.

“She is alive Kat, Jasmine is alive she didn’t die, you brought her back” Ezra tells me but I know what I saw, he is lying, he said he would never lie to me but he is.

I couldn’t breathe. I try to suck in a breath but all I see is her dead eyes, I can’t get the image from my mind now that I know it wasn’t a dream. Then the feeling I felt and how cold I got as I stared down at her, the coldness of my lips as I kissed her head.

“Sh*t! Kat breathe, you will pass out, just breathe please” He says grabbing my face. I could see the Alpha lips moving trying to tell me something as the room around us dimmed but yet couldn’t understand what he was saying, the room getting darker as I tried to breathe, my head feeling lighter as the room spins.

“Kat she is alive, I will explain but please breathe” Ezra says.

She is alive, she is alive. I try to convince myself to believe it but people don’t come back from the dead, we aren’t cats, we don’t get nine lives, so what he is saying makes no sense.

I concentrate on his face and his breathing trying to regain my breath as I suck in air before I chuckle at his face so close to mine, his eyes blurring into one. He raises an eyebrow at me but I manage to catch my breath though he continues to do his weird breathing.

“Why are you panting like a woman in labour?” I ask and he pulls back.

“I was trying to help you, you’re the one who forgot how to breathe” He says sitting back in his chair but grabbing my hand.

“I called her over,” Mateo says, looking at the Alpha.
