The Alpha's Mate Is A Spy novel Chapter 6

I thought Derek was bluffing when he said she was strong enough to handle three men simultaneously, but when she landed a swift back kick towards my neck, my elbow almost went numb from the pain.

I slid back and smirked.

She's fast. If I had reacted a little slower, then it'd be the end of me.

"Want to kick my head off? Not happening. Though you are strong, you're not strong enough to overpower a man's strength."

"Hah." She snorts. "That's a bit sexist, don't you think?"

She tried to lunge at me for the second time, but since I already expected her to move, I swiftly dodged all her attempts to knock me down. Her pace was speeding up, but it wasn't a problem to me.

Not until she jabbed a broken glass to my side.

My eyes opened. "Ugh! You bitch-" 

When she attempted another back kick, I grabbed her ankle and threw her to the wall.

I huffed. I glanced at my wound and noticed that it wasn't healing.

When did she grab that glass? The broken glass shards were on the opposite side of the room. There was no way she could've picked it up while we were exchanging blows.

Did she hide it in her body? And why the fuck is my wound not healing? Did she cast some spell?

My eyes shot towards the broken wood that shattered around her. Even with the amount of strength I pulled to knock her out, she was still able to stand up with a blank expression.

She snaps her neck slightly, "Well, that hurt."

I growled. "What did you do to me?"

"Oh, that?" She smirks as she kicks the wood beside her. "That's a secret."

"A secret? Do you know what you smell like now? You smell like a witch and a werewolf combined. Unlike at the festival where you fooled two alphas at the same time."

"You.. know I'm a half-witch?" Her eyes grew. She took a few steps back and whispered to herself. "How is that possible? Is that why Alpha Derek was acting weird?"

I already suspected that she cast a spell on my blood, so she'll undoubtedly be affected if I get my blood on her system.

Using that moment to move, I pushed her aggressively against the wall and used the shard that she used against me to pierce her through the same place.

Her breath hitched in pain as I pinned her wrists above her, then I slowly leaned on her ear. "Tick-tock, Little witch, if you don't undo that spell, we'll both bleed here to death."

She looks at me with a blank expression, "I hate clever people like you, it hasn't even been an hour, and you already know the magic trick?"

Only until now that I notice that both her contacts had fallen off, Her purple eyes stared back into mine, and it somehow irritated me how this half-witch made me somehow attracted to her.

It would be a waste to kill her, wouldn't it?

I grinned. "What reward do I get for exposing the magician?"

The atmosphere around us changed all of a sudden. I wasn't showing hostility anymore, and she just stared at me with a confused face.

She raises an eyebrow. "Aren't you going to slice my neck? Though we're both bleeding to death here, you still had the energy to pin me on the wall."

"Killing you would be a waste. I hadn't had fun like this for a while now."

"You've got some serious, weird kink dude, don't tell me you're flirting with a spy who just tried to kill your friend?"

"I mean, aren't we both dying anyway? Might as well wait who bleeds to death first?" I smiled.

She groans heavily before i feel the restraints on my body getting lighter. I glanced at my wound site and noticed it healing.

I locked eyes with her again. This time, I was close enough that it would only take her to move slightly to kiss her directly.

"That's odd. You don't look like the type to care about death."
