KAI
A day later, I was in the council of elders again.They've been asking for my presence and calling for a meeting since I brought Nadine to Eden City but things had to be done properly. I couldn't just attend to them when I was yet to explain to Nadine what she was doing in Eden City.And God! That explanation had unfolded in a way I wasn't expecting it to at all. I know it was going to be ridiculous, telling her about the werewolf world that'd cease to exist if her project was commissioned but saying it out loud and watching all the expressions on her face had made it much more ridiculous.I knew she was going to believe me that easily and the plan was to let her slowly come to terms with it but those kids just happened to be shifting right there on the street in broad daylight and as if seeing them was not enough, I was just stupid enough to let my anger get my claws out and changed my eyes color and the minute she saw that, she paled completely before she took a step back from me only for her to collapse.And my reflexes were of course, quick enough to grab her before she hits the floor.The memories of how her curves had molded into the hard planes of my body flashed through my mind and I gulped involuntarily. It was just to carry her from the window to the bed but the intensity of the feelings it had invoked in me was even more intense than naked bodies tangled together and working each other to an earth-shattering orgasm.Was that what it feels like?I immediately called on my personal physician to check up on her which was difficult for him at first because she was human and he has always been treating werewolves and during that minute when he couldn't get how to check her vitals and all that, I had contemplated storming back into her world to bring in a medical doctor that'd treat her but then, he finally found a way and that was when I was able to relax.He said she fainted from extreme shock and that it might take her a couple of days to come back because she was in a new world where she wasn't used to the weather and atmosphere.I kept him in the house so he'd be there whenever she woke up and I stayed up in her room all through the night but she did not even stir.And now, as a good leader, I had to attend this council meeting to tell them what they wanted to hear."Has she agreed to the terms you laid out for her?" Elder Will demanded immediately I took my seat, confirming my resolution that one of these days, I was going to cut out his tongue and feed it to him if he doesn't learn how to address his Alpha in the correct manner.There was a sudden quietness as Will sat up straighter and that was when I realized that I had said that out loud. I didn't quiver, just glared at Will that he sat upright and bowed his head in apology."I'm sorry for that, Alpha."I ignored him to address the rest of the council."She's currently in my house and for now, she finds it hard to believe that werewolves actually exist not to talk of canceling her project because of us and with the way things are, it might take a while for me to convince her to put her project on hold.""Scare her then," Levi spoke without thinking, leveling me with that hated glare that he always directed at me, "scare her as the former King did to George, threaten her, get your claws, show her she'll be courting death if she refuses to cooperate."My hands balled into fists at his suggestion because the idea of even scaring her or hurting her in the slightest bit was enough to make my blood boil."She's a female, we can't go all caveman on her as we did to George," I managed to grit out through clenched teeth.Heck, she was so fragile that she collapsed from seeing my claws. Actively threatening her with that was going to kill her."Of course, she's a female," Levi replied with an amused glint in his eyes, "is she pretty?" he chuckled to himself, "I bet she's pretty seeing how you're already thinking with your dick.""Watch your mouth, Levi," I growled, reaching for the collar of his shirt which was quite easy because he was sitting right by my side, "watch the way you address me!""Of course, Alpha King," he raised his hands in mock surrender, the amusement in his eyes deepening and I knew that he knew Nadine had sparked something in me, something that was actually making me think with my dick.I dropped his collar."This is not the time for irrational chit-chats and arguments, we need to think of how to resolve the issue at hand!" that was Luca."Yes and my honest suggestion, I think we should just get rid of her," Aaron announced like a dumb motherfucker and my hand tightened with the need to crush his windpipe."Yes, I agree, killing her off is the next viable option for us right now, at least if we do that, it'll buy us the time to figure out our next move and allow us to buy the next mayor over.""We can't just kill an innocent human being," Luca protested."Well, she's not so innocent seeing how she wants to put our existence to an end.""She doesn't even know that this would happen.""Apart from killing her, what better idea do you have?""None for now but I'm sure Kai can convince her and make this work.""Ohh, don't be ridiculous please, we don't have the luxury to wait around."Their voices rose as they argued more and more like barbarians and it was incredibly hard for me to remain still. Levi, on the other hand, was sitting back on his chair and looking at them as if he was watching a show of a lifetime.As their arguments continued, I eventually couldn't take it anymore and I slammed my fist on the desk, shaking everything on it."She's my mate," I growled angrily and as expected, they all fell quiet.KAIAs expected, all of them fell quiet and they all turned to me with expressions full of disbelief. Even Levi sat up straighter as he looked at me with an expression I couldn't decipher. "What do you mean she's your mate?" Denis asked, his tone incredulous. "Exactly what it means, she's my mate, my fated one, the one I've been searching for all these years."There were collective gasps and their expressions mirrored shock and disbelief. Those two were an understatement to what I felt when I discovered that she was my mate. It was the least expected thing, something I never thought could be possible but the minute I stepped out of my hiding under the rain, the first thing that assaulted my nose was the divine and heavenly scent that was coming from her. I knew it was impossible for someone to smell that good alone and my wolf senses immediately picked up the fact that she might be our mate. Everything about her felt magical and divine and out of this world that I could see lit
KAIThe first place I showed up when I got back home was in Nadine's room and she was still out with the physician sitting on a chair in her room. I then went to the kitchen where Mama Teresa was cooking one of her delicious recipes to drink water. "The council must have been very happy," she said softly as I drowned a cup of water. "Happy is an understatement to what they felt when they realized that finally, there's a way out of the impending doom.""Yeah, I can imagine, after all these years, the Moon Goddess finally answered our prayers."After all these years indeed! Since the curse and prophecy were revealed to me after my eighteenth birthday by Father and the rest of the council, I initially thought it was ridiculous because we were in a modern world and mates were a thing of the past but as I grew older, I realized how dire the situation was. The existence of the entire werewolf race was solely dependent on if I found my mate. As the 21st generation of the Alpha bloodline
KAII reached her room in less than a second and Nadine was kneeling on the bed, screaming at the top of her voice and throwing everything her hands could reach to the physician. "What's going on here?" I demanded angrily, my eyes focused on the erratic lady on the bed but my words were directed at the old man."Did you do anything to hurt her?""Of course not, Alpha," he answered, "I'd never. She regained consciousness and I was still checking her vitals when she suddenly start to scream at the top of her lungs."That was expected.I started to walk towards her and she threw a pillow that I barely felt at me."Get out!" she yelled, "you spineless disgusting animal, leave me alone!""Y'all should get out," I ordered the physician and Mama Teresa and Sara that had followed me here and they all obeyed."You need to calm down, Nadine, I promise I'm not going to hurt you," I raised my hand in surrender but that didn't stop her shrieking. "You're not going to hurt me?" she asked incredul
NADINE“YOU MUST BE FUCKING KIDDING ME!”I screamed at the top of my voice but the fucker didn't even as much blink. “You hear me, you must be a joker to tell me that? What? I'm your mate? Mate? What’s that even supposed to mean?”He opened his mouth to talk but I held up a hand to stop.“You know what? I'm not interested, you just have to let me go right now. And I mean right now!” I started to sidestep him to get to the door but of course, he grabbed my hand and successfully stopped me from walking away.He pulled me back and he had an almost apologetic look on his face as he bite his lower lip slowly as if he was feeling nervous. My eyes latched on the movement of the tip of his pink tongue as it swept over his full lower lip and I felt my body heat up as my thoughts suddenly started going haywire. Jesus Christ! What's wrong with me? Why am I noticing that about this animal-man that kidnapped me and brought me to God knows where?“Listen Nadine, I know this is all shades of rid
NADINEI paced back and forth in the room before finally collapsing on the sofa. There was no way out of this misery and it seems like I was really locked up by that deranged psychopath. While I was sitting and thinking of what I can do to get myself out of this mess, an idea popped into my mind and I quickly fished out my phone from my back intending to call one of my teammates and alert them of my dire situation but to my utmost surprise, there was no network, no even the slightest one and it wouldn't pop up no matter how much I jumped around or what surface I climb. I tried to check the date on my calendar but it seems like all the apps on my phone were barely functioning again and the thought that I was really trapped in an alternate universe dawned on me again. But was that really possible? Another world with a werewolf race? How ridiculous does that even sound? I wasn't even sure how many days have passed since I was brought here and I could only imagine how they would be
KAI"She still isn't eating anything," Sara announced from the door of my office and my head jerked up from the document I was going over. "And at this rate, she might even pass out before you get anything done."Something ticked in my jaws and my fists clenched. I understand why she was acting up and I hated the fact I was the one that put her in this situation but acting like a child and intentionally starving herself wasn't it and I wasn't going to condone it. When Sara first told me that she wasn't eating anything yesterday, I had waved it off that she was going to come around but it seems she wanted to see it to the end. I pushed my chair back and stood up. "Is there any food with her now?""Yeah, I just dropped her dinner off.""Good! I'll take care of it."I walked out of my room and started walking towards her room which was on a floor below me and instinctively, I paused when I got to her door and took in deep breaths. The thought of seeing her again...I pushed the door
NADINEAll my thoughts turned to mush when he pulled me into his lap and for the briefest minute, I couldn't process a thing. When the enormity of what was happening dawned on me, I started squirming and clawing to get off his lap which proved to be an impossible task because even though he just had to hold my wrist with just his hand, I couldn't break free. "You have to let me go," I told him, trying go sound as stern as possible and to ignore what I was feeling with being this close to him. He didn't reply immediately and when I turned back to him, he seemed to be in some sort of physical distress with how his jaws were tightly clenched and his eyes were darker than normal. What the... what's going on? "Open up," he ordered gruffly, an edge to his voice and my core clenched as my brain interpreted what he just said in another context entirely. "I'm not," I replied him, crossing my hands over my chest defiantly and when his eyes followed that movement, I noticed just how wrong
KAIFuck! I all but ran out of Nadine's room.I've always prided myself on being rational and resilient to whatever temptation comes my way but that situation in there was getting too much for me to handle. Putting her on my lap and force-feeding her was a mistake. I should have never even considered the option of putting her on my lap. Fine, It got her to eat which was the most important thing here but it also messed with my sanity because being that close to her, I've never wanted a girl more than I wanted her. I was too close to her neck and her scent overwhelmed my nose, making it almost impossible to resist her.God! I've never wanted anything more than to bare her skin to me and mark her with my teeth and lips.It took all my willpower not to sink my teeth into her neck and mark her right there. I wanted to take her right there and then. The only thing that stopped me from doing so, was the fact that I knew if I even tried to kiss her, she would scream the house down and prob
