Mates with Alpha Maddox novel Chapter 27

"She is better off without me" he says numbly, its as if he drilled that sentence into his brain.

"No she is not you fool! You are not only hurting yourself but your mate too. I am not saying that when you go to her she will run into your open arms because she is hurt. You hurt her and you will have to work for her forgiveness but it will be totally worth it at the end" I say looking at him in the eye.

He was about to say something but I feel someone trying to mind link me so I held my index finger up to him and took down the barrier I had put when we left because I didn't want to be bothered.

As soon as I dropped the barrier I felt Maddox anger through the mate bond.

'Yes?' I ask happily through the mind link.

'Where the fuck are you Jayda? I just got out of the meeting, hoping to see my mate then I find out that she has been out all day with another guy" he growls out making me roll my eyes.

'I am actually hanging out with Ian. I'll be back in a bit. Take care babe' I chirp and before he can reply, out my barriers up.

I hated mind link. It gave me a headache afterwards because I wasn't used to it.

I turn to Ian. "It was Maddox" I state.

"I kind of figured when you rolled your eyes" he says with a laugh.

"Yeah well, he isn't very happy at the moment" I say with a small laugh. I could feel Maddox trying to break the barrier but I ignored it.

"Yeah, I also figured he would be really pissed when he found out you were with me" Ian says.

"Same, but anyways Ian. I will help you with Isabella, you deserve to be happy. I might tell Maddox that I will stay a few more days here if you don't mind but thats only if it takes longer. Now we should go back" I say and stand up from the log, I looked up and see that the sky had darkened slightly.

We had spent the whole day talking, I was so happy I decided to join Ian in this 'tour' because if I hadn't then I wouldn't have met Ian the way I know him now. And also because if I hadn't gone with Ian I would probably be obsessing over Anna and Maddox the whole day.

He stays silent for a second then says "okay, I will try to work things with Isabella" he stands up from the log and walks towards me.

He hugs me, a really tight hug. "Thank you so much for doing this Jayda, Maddox is fucking lucky to have you" he kisses my the top of my head and pulls away.

"Its no problem Ian, thanks for getting my mind off of things" I say with a small smile and start walking back towards his Alpha house.

He grins "What are friends for?"

We then walk silently side by side, both lost in our thoughts.

My thoughts were consumed by Maddox. I loved him so much and he could be the sweetest guy ever but he could also be the most unfair and aggravating guy when he wants to be.

And every time we finally made up something happens, we had finally fixed our problems and then we come here and I find a girl who has been in love with him her whole life.

I mean, can I get a break?

I haven't been that much of a bad person, I think I at least deserve to be happy.
