The Alpha Claimed Me Deeply by Demiah13

Chapter 31

(Aurora’s pov) I could sense the shift in Alpha Xavier’s mood after he talked to the older doctor. The way he held me firmly as he guided me upstairs. I had thought he would’ve brought me back to the same room he had previously put me in before. But he doesn’t and tugs me into his room. It feels weird to be allowed in his room. Last night I understood he wanted to make sure ! didn’t escape but from my punishment last night, surely he figured I’d try my best to not upset him again. “You can have a shower while I go collect your clothes. Don’t do something I wouldn’t do Aurora. Unless you want your punishment to be more severe than the one last night.” He warned. I nodded, gulping. I had no intentions of going through that painful torture again. He turns around but I stop him. “Alpha,” I murmur softly. His back stiffens and he doesn’t turn around. “Yes?” I swallowed, looking down nervously.” There was a small backpack I had in my possession the morning I was brought forth by the wolves who found me. I know it’s been two nights since then but the bag means a lot to me “I will find it and bring it to you,” He says curtly and leaves the room without another word o ra glance back at me. Even though his answer was undoubtedly cold, I couldn’t help but feel relieved. Cas gave me that backpack and I will hold it close to me until we reunite again. It may sound and be impossible now. But I would do anything to see her face again. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

I just hope the moon goddess the wolves howl to, will find it in her to keep Cas safe. I really hope she was. I blinked away the moisture as I turn around to strut towards the bathroom. I missed her so much. :Xavier’s pov: I piled the clothes on the bed and turned my head to face the bathroom. I could hear the shower running She was in there. Naked. Wet. I fisted my hands to my side, my claws piercing my palm and allowing my blood to drip on the floors. I could go in there now and find out if the witch’s mark was on her cunt. But something I’ve never felt before licked up my spine and forced my legs to stay rooted where they were.

Fear, I feared of what would happen if she was indeed created by a witch to torment me. If she wasn’t truly my mate but someone created for one purpose, to ruin me. 1 clenched my eyes tightly and turned around to leave the room. I needed space to clear my head. Two nights she’s been here and two nights she has not left my mind. It’s hard to do my Alpha duties with her on my mind twenty four seven. It’s even worse now that the taste of her had now become an addiction in such a short amount of time. My original plan was to keep using her to calm Reckon down enough to control him. But I found myself scribbling messily on my original plans and feeling lost on what to do. Especially after last night. I had never allowed a woman to sleep beside me before, neither have I ever slept peacefully before. Not since last night. Not since she arrived and overstepped the wall I cemented between us. 1 “Xavier!” Eli yelled a few feet ahead of me. He stood at the door to my study and looked to be rather impatient as he waved me over. I continued towards him, intending to actually go inside my study to work on some paperwork to occupy my mind and keep it off of her for a little while. “What is it?” I gruinble opening the door and walking inside. The room still smelled of the liquor from last night. Eli closed the door behind him.” Heard you nearly killed Adrian. Samuel’s still in shock that you did it all because of the girl, Aurora? Is it true?” I sighed while fixing myself on the leather chair. In all honesty, I didn’t give a flying fuck that I nearly killed Adrian. She had it coming for hurting my mate. ‘So you admit it. She’s ours.’ Reckon snorted. I ignored him and kicked up my legs on the desk, crossing the right over the left.” And if I say it’s true? What happens then? Will my people hate me for defending a harmless girl?” I crossed my arms over my chest and waited for his answer. Eli’s brows furrowed in confusion. “So you’re now certain the girl Aurora is harmless?” His words or tone weren’t accusing just mild intrigue. I looked at him for a few seconds and sigh. “No. I still am not even close to finding out what she is.” I admitted. “And yet you had her in your room last night…..” Eli drawled, looking at me fixedly without batting an eye. I stiffen, my legs falling to the floor as I stand up to my full height. I growled, my Alpha aura whipping around me strongly. Eli backs away and bares his neck.” I’m sorry for sounding accusing

Alpha. I didn’t intend to. We’re all finding it strange that you’re letting her stay in your room seeing as we know you love your personal space.” “I’m letting her stay there to keep a close eye on her. She tried to escape last night and that was the only way I could make sure she wouldn’t again.” I didn’t owe him an explanation but I figured I’d have to give him something if I wanted to keep him off my back. Sooner or later they would’ve questioned why I let her sleep in my room. Keeping my pack in the dark was something I have never done before. I was their leader and I had to earn their trust. One little white lie won’t hurt, but if the secret of her being my mate is sound out before I can uncover what kind of creature she is or why she’s fated to me. Then I’d not be a leader at all. But someone that had lost the honor. But I couldn’t bring myself to tell them. Especially seeing as I don’t know everything myself. I’ll take this little by little, day by day until I’m ready to let them know if I choose to. Or if I’ll let her go before they find out. Because God only knew how much of a burden she’ll bare if she remains mated to me for life. I would be doing her a favor if I let her go. I really would. But the sickening weight in my gut told me I really didn’t want to. Eli looks at me closely after I had calmed down and sat back down on the chair. After a moment of silence. He speaks up.” She’s not your mate is she?” He whispered so lowly that even my advanced hearing almost failed to pick up on. I stiffen.” No. Why would you think that?” Eli looks unsure.” Because I’ve never seen you this way Xavier. You’ve…. changed since she’s come here “Enough!” I snarled.” The girl is nothing to me!” The words tasted bitter. Eli backed away after sensing my rage. “If you don’t have anything better to do than bombard me with useless questions. I have something that will keep you occupied. There’s a backpack the girl Aurora is missing. She mentioned that she had it on her when you found her. Retrieve the bag and bring it to her.” Eli nodded quickly.” Yes alpha.” Lifting his gaze he looked at me with a questioning stare. “If she is, you’ll tell us right?” “Get out of my sight Eli!” I snarled. He scurries out of the office leaving me staring at the door blankly while my mind swims with thoughts of Aurora. Could she really be my fate or was she just some summoned doll?
