I Came Back For My Alpha and Mate

Louisa

(Age:20)

It was feeling empty and cold and then suddenly it stopped. A voice screamed at me with so much fury. I wanted to open my eyes, but I had to understand what was going on.

“They all said killing my fated mate was the only way I could be free to choose my own!!” He yelled at me. “You're dead! And yet you still haunt me!”

I tried to make sense of what he was saying, but my mind was completely blank.

“Louisa, you know your death was necessary,” he began pacing around my body. “My father, mother and sister had to be avenged! Alpha George and his pathetic family deserved to die for killing half of my family.”

My heart began beating faster; it felt like he was stepping away, and then, I heard splashes of books falling off from a shelf.

“He killed them and never returned the bodies!!” He yelled and began stepping closer to me. “Well, to thank you for being the one close enough to dine with them and poison them, I will bury your body myself. I'm sorry I refused to give you the antidote like I promised but I would never have accepted you as my mate.”

Damn it! He wanted to bury my body. He thought I was still dead.

“I am an Alpha!! I refuse to be controlled! A wolf-less spy will not be my mate!” He smirked.

I felt the pressure of his strong arms lifting me, my head lolled against his shoulder. I knew this was the right time to show I was alive so I forced my eyes open, letting a sharp gasp out of my mouth.

He froze for a moment; I felt his arms tense. His grip on me loosened and the next thing I felt was hitting my back on the floor.

“Ahh,” I gasped, pressing a hand to my head.

My body ached, weak and foreign, as if it didn’t belong to me. For a moment, everything blurred, and slowly, I saw where I was.

The room was small, filled with shelves stacked with books, boxes and dusty containers labelled in faded ink. A single light bulb was above, casting a glow.

While I stood up, he took a step back, staring at me as if I was something unnatural. My heart was beating so fast; my feet trembled beneath me.

“No… this isn't…” he paused. “You're supposed to be dead!”

Well the man before was huge and tall, muscular built. It felt weird that I couldn't take my eyes off him despite hearing that he wanted dead, I guess that should be because I don't remember anything, especially how I died.

“How in the holy hell are you still alive?” He asked, eyes still widened.

I had to be careful with my next words. I didn't know who he was, and I couldn't let him know that I couldn't remember who I was.

“I survived,” I said.

“You, a wolf-less girl, survived a powerful poison that killed a very notorious Alpha and his Luna, including his heirs,” he stated, walking towards me.

I opened my mouth but couldn't utter a word, I wasn't sure of what to say, so I closed back my mouth and began biting my lips in thoughts.

“Answer me!!” He yelled. “Or perhaps, you lied about eating the food with them.” he paused, “Why come back for the antidote then? You can't be that stupid.”

From what I've gathered, he had an enemy he wanted dead. He sent me to win their trust and dine with them, he gave me a poison to wipe out the people that murdered his family, I dined with them but never got an antidote from him. Damn it! I was used and manipulated.

“Well, none of that matters anymore, I will just kill you myself!” He smirked.

I took a step back immediately, my body tensing but he moved faster. My hands scrambled for anything to hold on to but instead, my back hit the wooden shelf.

He reached me and wrapped his fingers around my arm, yanking me forward with so much force.

“You had one life purpose! Infiltrate the pack, kill their Alpha's family! One life purpose!” His grip on me tightened.

I struggled against his hold but he was too strong. I needed to think fast and save myself. Then, the words slipped from my lips before I could even process them.

"Don't you want to know where your mother is?" I gasped. "She is still alive!"

His grip loosened and his eyes widened in disbelief.

“You're lying,” he said, furrowing his brows.

“Perhaps that's why I returned from the dead,” I smirked, extracting myself from his grip.

That was my chance to survive, I had to stall and find a way out of my misery.

“Think about it! You never saw the bodies!” I said, staring at him and hoping he would buy my story.

He shook his head sideways, he didn't want to believe me. My mind raced; I had been given a second chance, and I didn't want to die again without knowing why I was even sent back.

So I took a deep breath and took a few steps forward.

“If you kill me now, you will never find her,” I said calmly.

I looked into his eyes, there was something different, something drawing me to him despite knowing he despises me.

I stretched my hand to his face; his blue eyes glowed into golden yellow, and that ignited something in me; I felt my eyes glowing as well.

“You manipulative bitch!!” he yelled and pushed me off him.

I stumbled but held myself together.

“I will never mark you to be mine!” He growled. “You are going to tell me where and how to find my mother right now!”

“So that you can kill me afterwards?” I asked, “I need an assurance that once you find her, you will let me live.”

I waited for a response while my heart was beating so fast. He clenched his fist, glaring at me.
