Her Cold-Hearted Alpha novel Chapter 63

ALEJANDRO

I stood on the balcony at the front centre o f the mansion two floors up , as I looked at the illuminated gardens , satisfied . ” Kind of dazzling tonight , isn’t it ? It doesn’t really make sense when we’re wolves . ” Jasmin said from next to me . I didn’t reply , I knew what she was insinuating and she wasn’t wrong . I had asked for it to be light enough for Kiara . ” A change is good . ” I said coldly . She nodded , smart enough to keep her fucking mouth shut .

I turned away , trying to calm the emotions that swirled within me . I wanted to see her … but at the same time , I was scared . What would I do when my eyes fell upon her ? I know I was sure she was my mate … But I still wanted confirmation … Even if I would never pursue her . ” You’re restless . ” Jasmin murmured . ” I’m not . ” I said coldly . ” You are welcome to join the fucking ball . ”

” I’d rather spend it with you . ” She said , stepping closer to me . I turned away and walked to the door that led out to the hall , overlooking the grand hall beneath . Soft music could be heard all the way up here and the sound of laughter , chatter and the hustle and bustle of everyone downstairs filled my ears . I stepped out into the hall and over t o the balcony looking far below . My eyes scanned the crowd for her .

A sharp , blinding ray of light glittered from something in the midst of the crowd and I looked down to see Kiara hugging Rayhan , the light reflecting off her dress . My heart skipped a beat at how breath taking she looked . Dressed like a Goddess , she stood out from the entire fucking crowd . Her glittering dress accentuated her killer curves . Every time I saw her felt like the first time , fucking distracting me endlessly .

But this time … it was at a whole new level . She took my breath away and it fucking messed with my resolve . I felt a strong , sizzling pull towards her , m y assumption was confirmed . She was my mate … My entire body was on edge and m y heart was pounding louder than ever .

The burning desire to go to her threatened to consume me . I didn’t miss the men staring at her , but how the fuck can I complain when she had all my attention locked on her too ? Still , I wanted to pull her into my arms and tell the fuckers that she belongs to me . The only problem was … she couldn’t be mine . My heart pounded in my chest as she turned , laughing about something , her radiant face glowing with that dazzling smile on her face .

In the large hall full of hundreds of people I couldn’t make out what she was saying , but just seeing her happy … I felt an ache inside . She didn’t need me , I had been right . * She was here , dressed like a fucking Queen , ready to find her mate . A mate who wasn’t good enough for her . I don’t know what the fuck Selene was playing at But Kiara deserved better …

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath , I wanted to smell her … just once … to calm the anger and distress that was beginning to burn within me … but she was too far away to smell from here , or to make out in the Jarge hall of hundreds of scents .

Either way , I guess it was for the better . The urge to go down there and mark her suddenly overcame me . The longer I looked at her , the more my resolve was weakening . I couldn’t do that … She was a goddess and I was a fucking monster . I turned away quickly , walking back into the room . ” Alejandro , are you okay ? Your heart is racing . ” Jasmin said with concern as she approached me . I looked into her eyes .

This was my decision , Jasmin . I had to forget Kiara … but how do you forget someone who seemed to become your entire life ? Your reason to breathe and carry on ? I couldn’t . Even when I suddenly grabbed Jasmin’s face and kissed her , all I could think about was Kiara . I needed to forget … Touching Jasmin repulsed me . I felt my anger growing , hating myself for this , hating Jasmin , hating this entire fucking situation . She kissed me back , I could taste blood .
