Fated To The Alpha novel Chapter 57

Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 57

Katya POV

Ezra didn’t say a word for most of the night, his thoughts consuming him, Kora was on edge and kept telling me something wasn’t right. Her anxiety setting mine off.

‘Maddox is going to kill her’ Kora tells me, making me zone back into what she was rambling about.

‘He will if he gets out again’ She rambles.

‘Who Mum?’ I ask her and she nods pacing, always pacing she hadn’t stopped since Ezra brought us back to the room. I sit up and Ezra jumps gripping my wrist. “Where are you going?”

“To pee” I tell him and he lets go before sighing.

“You’re not leaving me” He asks and I look at him.

“Why would I leave you, I love you” I tell him and he rolls on his side facing me, he had been staring at the ceiling for hours.

“Because of Maddox,” he answers.

“I’m not going anywhere Ezra, but I do need to pee” I tell him, my bladder screaming for me to get to the bathroom.

“Mateo is leaving for a few days,” he says as I reach the bathroom door.

I stop my heart skipping a beat knowing I would be on my own with Maddox if he did take over Ezra again. Kora knew she wasn’t strong enough to restrain him if he did and I felt bile rise in my throat.

“Does that bother you?” Ezra asks but I ignore his question walking into the bathroom and shutting the door. I quickly pee before washing my hands and turning to the door. My hand stopping at the door knob while I try to pull my fear aside, try to block my emotions from him.

Ezra was sitting on the edge of the bed staring at the bathroom door.

“You never answered, but I know it does bother you. You feel safer with him near” he says and I could feel his hurt at his words.

“How long will he be gone?” I ask and he growls before suppressing it.

“I don’t know, a few days he said” I nod walking over to the bed when he pulls me between his legs and wraps his arms around my waist.

“What did Mateo mean?” I ask him and he presses his head against my breasts.

“It doesn’t matter”

“But he said you were cursed too” I tell him.

“Not cursed, not like you, But yes it does feel like a curse sometimes”

“What does?” I ask pulling his face back.

“My wolf”

“I don’t understand?” I tell him, Maddox had a serious temper problem but he was sweet for the most part.

“My father’s wolf killed both his mates, my grandmother died by her husband’s too, our wolves are a separate entity to us, they allow us control not the other way around” Ezra says.

“But I have seen you control him” I tell him, stepping away from him. Ezra nods.

“Yes I do have some control, more than my forefathers because I haven’t kept him locked up, that’s why I let him forward with me, why I let you hear him through the mindlink. It helps, keeps him calm, you keep him calm from taking over”

“What do you mean, Maddox is sweet, well when he isn’t angry” I tell him and he chuckles nodding his head.

“He can be, my father’s wolf never was. He was cruel but my father feared his wolf, refused to accept him as his which only fuelled him”

“You’re not scared of Maddox?” I ask, Ezra shakes his head.

“No just what he is capable of, my father’s wolf took him over, shoved him out and killed my mother, his wolf then took a chosen mate and killed her too”

“When you say took over, like he didn’t give him control?”

“He killed off my father’s human counterpart basically, took over both forms and locked my father away in the back of his own mind, so I killed him with Mateos help”
