My fated alpha by Natalie novel Chapter 13

Madeleine

“That son of a bitch.”

He swore under his breath, banging his fist on the windowsill. Though he had spoken in a low voice, I had heard him.

“Was that why you were looking for me? I’ll just rip his throat apart and kill him for good.”

My eyes grew wide at the thought of him killing Steve. While killing Steve would surely spare me of my pain, I knew that it would only increase his problems with Garron and the rest of the pack.

Though I knew Garron and his entire pack wouldn’t last even a minute in front of Hayden, I didn’t want him to be in more trouble because of me.

I wasn’t his pack member yet he had done a lot for me already.

Besides, now that I had seen Garron here, I knew that Hayden hadn’t been in any real danger. Garron wouldn’t enter an alpha’s territory to harm him.

In my short stay with his pack, I had realized that like Steve, Garron too preyed on the weak.

Despite being an alpha, Garron wasn’t that brave to face another alpha head-on.

Right now, I was just relieved to realize that whatever Steve had said was just a drunkard’s gibberish and nothing else.

I felt like a fool for believing him and running around like a headless chicken. But, a small voice in my head said that it was just another reason for me to find and meet Hayden.

I shushed that voice in my head and focussed on Hayden who was looking at me for an answer. And though I sounded stupid to my own ears, I answered him truthfully,

“He…he said that he would kill you….and, I was afraid so, I decided to inform you…but, I didn’t know where you lived…or where to even start looking for you…so I was just wandering around… until Charlie spotted me.”

After finishing my lame answer, I fell silent and looked at the floor. I had expected him to be anything but amused at my answer.

Instead of getting angry or displaying signs of worry, Hayden chuckled. That cute smile was enough to warm my heart and send tingles all over my body.

He added with a grin that melted my heart yet again, “It would take more than ten Steves to even touch me without my permission, forget killing me.”

I liked the confidence with which he spoke. He wasn’t even being arrogant, he had just said it as if it was the plain truth.

And looking at his chiseled body that my eyes couldn’t help take a peek of every once in a while, I realized it to be the actual truth.

His muscles were ripped and there were very fine lines of scars on his body indicating the battles he must have fought. Those white lines shone in the sunlight and I lost my mind again.

Nodding my head at his words, I looked down at the floor and he said, “You know what, Maddy, he is just a bully. An arrogant bully. He feeds on your fear. Don’t let him make you feel weak. Next time he tries touching you, stand your ground and look him in the eye.”

Maddy. He had called me something only my mother would call me.

His words made sense to me. I had been so deep in fear that I had never really mustered my courage to retaliate.

At most, I had spoken sternly just once, but I had quickly given in when Steve had looked at me in annoyance.

Looking up from the floor to his eyes, I asked him what had been bothering me, “Do I have to return to the pack? What if they harass me again? I don’t want to live with them.”
