Her Cold-Hearted Alpha novel Chapter 100

KIARA

Despite his threat to his brother , his words send a rush of emotions through m e . My heart was pounding as he pulled me into his arms possessively . I simply closed my eyes and wrapped my arms around his waist .

” I only wanted her for her power , as Mom wanted … It’s nothing personal . Now that I know she was lying … I can guarantee I don’t want your mate …

She seems to be young enough to be my daughter . ” Marcel shot back . Alejandro growled and I pulled away , trying to calm him down . I was glad that a few rogues had brought in some extra lanterns so I could see a lot better . ” It’s fine … Come on , we need to think of a plan of action .

” I said , kissing Alejandro’s chest as he glared at his brother . ” You should rest , my wolves will keep watch . ” Marcel said quietly . ” Like I would trust you that much . ” Alejandro shot back . ” We should head back first … “

He frowned deeply , looking at me , and I knew he was worried about me . ” I think I’d like to stay . Once I’m rested , i n the morning I can help heal the Wendigo’s .

” I added thoughtfully . Alejandro’s frown deepened , he seemed lost in thought and I could feel his hesitation before he nodded . ” Fine . ” ” Thanks .

” Marcel said . ” I will have someone show you a room , and give you clothes . After that , let’s eat . It is late . ” ” I said before Alejandro ” Thank you . ” could even speak . ” We’d like that . ” ” At least one of you is sane . ” Marcel muttered.

” Yeah well , at least I’m not a fucking loser like you . ” Alejandro shot back . Both brothers glared at each other and I sighed . It seems like it was in their blood t o have such big egos .

Once we were shown to a room and given clothes , we were left alone . The moment the door shut , Alejandro was in front of me , removing the necklace from around my neck . He crouched down , resting his head against my stomach .

My heart thundered at his move . He must have been worried … ” We are fine . ” I whispered , I knew for a fact our bodies could take more than that , and I hadn’t felt any pain or cramping .

I ran my fingers through his hair as his lips fleetingly brushed my stomach . Even though the fabric of my top , I felt the pleasant tingle rush through me . ” I know .

” He said , clenching his jaw as he stood up , not able to look me directly in the eye . I knew it was because he didn’t want to show his concern . ” You were worried about our pup ? ” I whispered . ” Not really …

” He denied , still not looking me in the eye . I raised an eyebrow , smiling slightly . I felt all warm and happy with his concern . ” Really ? So , the moment we are alone , you rush to hear the heartbeat … simply because you wanted to and not because you cared ?

” I teased as he slipped the necklace back around my neck . ” Maybe a little . Don’t fucking annoy me , Sweetheart . ” He said , pulling me close . I smirked . ” I kind of can if I want , and you wouldn’t b e able to stop me . ” I taunted .

” Oh , I wouldn’t be so fucking sure . ” He said , with a small cold smirk . Ok , I do not trust him at all … ” Well , let’s get changed . ” I said , looking around the cavern room . It was more of an actual room than just a dingy cave . Although it was barely furnished , I could see that it was well kept .

There was a large double bed to one side , with three lanterns hanging around the room . It seemed they didn’t have much access to actual technology . There were two more lights on the far corner , ones that were created by magic . There were two small drawers and a chair standing to the side .

I picked up the clothes that were left on the bed for us and began stripping out of what I was wearing . I felt his gaze on me and my neart pounded , knowing I was tempting him … I wanted him … out … I turned towards him just in time to see he had turned away , his jaw clenched as he began getting dressed , tossing aside his torn pants .

I pulled on the long – sleeved black shirt and denim pants that were rather loose on my waist , but they would do the job . We had barely finished when there was a knock on the door . Alejandro growled as I walked over , about to open it when he got there first , moving me protectively behind him .

I sighed . Did he really not trust Marcel ? At the door was a young wolf . He barely looked much older than fifteen . Despite how slim he was , I could see the muscles under his worn – out shirt . ” Dinner is ready .

” He said , looking down under Alejandro’s intense glare . ” Lead the fucking way . ” Alejandro said coldly . I took his hand in mine , hoping he and Marcel didn’t start attacking each other . ” What’s your name ? ” I asked the boy . ” Mine ? ” He asked , sounding surprised as he let us through the dark hails .

Only Alejandro’s lead was guiding me . ” Yeah , who the fuck else ? ” Alejandro added . ” Eric . ” He said . ” Nice name . ” I said . I could feel the tension and anger rolling off Alejandro , I knew playing nice wasn’t in him .

I knew this was not his style . Alejandro was the type to work alone and not trust anyone or rely on anyone for help . But I knew to defeat Endora we needed a united team .

I knew he had listened to me because I wanted to stay and help the Wendigos . ” Thank you … ” Eric said quietly . Soon I saw light ahead and the smell of freshly cooked soup , with plenty of vegetables , filled my nose .

I inhaled deeply and heard my stomach grumble , making me blush . I was starved ! We stepped inside and all eyes turned to u s . There was a mix of men and women . One thing they had in common were their lean bodies , each littered with many scars . The women all had hair down to their shoulders or shorter .

There was not one item of jewellery on any of them and I wondered just how hard their life had been . ” Come . ” Marcel said , sitting at one of the long tables . Alejandro and I walked hand in hand .
