My fated alpha by Natalie novel Chapter 20

After I had spent almost an hour convincing Raine to stay with me, I got up from the floor. My knees were feeling a little numb because I had been sitting on the floor for so long but I was glad that she finally listened to me.

I wasn’t sure how long she would stay but I thought that I would find a way to make her extend her stay for another few weeks.

For now, she wasn’t going anywhere. And, I was growing restless to find a way to the other problem I had.

Hence, I left her after a hug and walked out of the door, straight for my office. The file I had been working on earlier was still lying on the desk but it could wait. Now, I had other things to do.

As I walked towards my office, I saw Ben hastily rush towards me.

“Alpha, please spare a minute, I wish to talk to you.”

I just waved a hand, indicating him to follow me. He did as I asked and walked in the office behind me.

I sat on my chair and looked at the watch, “Ok, I have a long night before me to work so quickly tell me what is that you want to talk about?”

Ben gave me a sheepish smile and I raised an eyebrow at that. “Uh, well it was about Madeleine.”

“What about her?” I unintentionally snapped at him. He heard the annoyance in my voice and asked a little apprehensively, “I just wanted to know which pack she belonged to…and…”

He stopped midway and I was getting frustrated at the way he was dragging things out.

“Common beta, you know you have pack duties and I have them too. Speak your mind.”

I said with a smile trying to tone my voice down. He hadn’t done anything to make me snap at him.

Well, not yet.

“...and, if possible…I mean, by any chance…do you know if she has a mate?”

“Why?”

I asked him more sharply than I had intended to. In my haste to get back to work, I had totally forgotten that Ben had been staring at her ever since he had seen her.

Was my beta smitten by her already?

I thought in annoyance. Then as if Luke wanted to taunt me, he reminded me of how she had looked in my shirt.

At that thought, I felt a bulge in my pants and I mentally chided Luke. Damn, I was letting both my wolf and my beta get to me. Adjusting myself in my seat, I shifted a little and crossed my legs.

Ben was only staring at the floor nervously and I told him what he wanted to hear.

“She is never going to have a mate because she is wolfless.”

The shock that was visible on Ben’s face made me feel satisfied. And then I scolded myself for feeling so.

My gamma just placed his hands on the chair in front of him and shrugged his shoulders.

“Oh…”

I knew I should not have said it the way I did but he was annoying me. I had work to do and he wanted to discuss Madeleine’s possible mates with me.

Ha!

His alpha wasn’t going to let him take interest in her.

“Why?” Luke suddenly asked me.

I didn’t answer Luke nor did I provide any more information to Ben. He kept staring at the floor and spoke,

“All right, then. I’ll leave, alpha.”

Knowing that he wasn’t going to pursue Madeleine anymore made me sigh in relief. I immediately asked him without looking up from the file,

“Any recent news of the rogues who had shown up?”

“They are steering clear of our pack and territory. Everybody knows better than to mess with the Blue Moon pack.”

Ben answered with pride and I smiled at him.
