The Alpha’s Human Mate

They were forced to kneel on the dirty ground. Damien entered the hut to call his mother, while the other witches stood behind Ellie and Maya.

After a few minutes, the head witch came out of the hut with Damien behind him. “Where are they?!” Agnes, the witch, screamed as she rushed out of the hut. She was wearing a long black gown, and she looked so beautiful that no one would know she was an ugly black witch.

She looked at the girls on the floor and screamed, “You evil creatures! I’ll make you pay for hurting my daughter.” She ran inside the hut and came back with her dagger.

Maya quickly bowed her head. She knew that the witch was angry and that there was nothing that could save them from her. “Forgive us, Agnes. We didn’t mean to go into the dark forest. We need the antidote to save my brother.” She said this without realizing she had called her by her name, which was forbidden.

“Agnes? Who are you?” The woman asked, walking towards Maya; she raised her head up and looked into her eyes. “Answer me, girl! Who are you?!”

Maya knew that there was nothing she could do again; she had exposed her identity to the woman. Then, when the black witches were still amongst the werewolves, it was only the blue moon pack, the greatest pack, that were allowed to call Agnes, the black witch by that name, because of a certain reason that no one knows. The other packs knew her by a different name.

“Ma… Maya from the blue moon pack.” She answered, while the other witches gasped in shock.

“Blue moon pack?! You’re from the bluemoon pack?!” The woman asked. “Your wicked father banished us into the dark forest, and now you’re here to hurt my own daughter again.” Agnes had always hated everything about the werewolves, especially the Blue Moon Pack. She had always blamed the former alpha of the Blue Moon Pack for their ugliness and misfortunes.

The former alpha, Alex’s father, was a ruthless wolf. He kills and burns humans and witches, especially the ones that get involved with wolves.

Even though the dark witches also do forbidden things, he was still ruthless and wicked until he died. “Your people came here to steal our poison. And now you want the antidote?”

“Burn them.” The witches screamed in anger.

All Maya wanted was to get the antidote before it got dark. “I’m sorry, Agnes. Please forgive us. We need to give the antidote to my brother before it gets dark.” She begged, but Agnes did not say anything; instead, she was looking at Ellie.

“They said you’re possessed.” Agnes said, looking at Ellie, who was just kneeling on the ground in silence. She took her dagger and was about to take a step forward when a sudden, cold breeze started blowing with a loud sound.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Agnes quickly dropped the dagger on the floor; she moved back slowly and saw that the girl’s eyes had changed back. The other witches also moved back.

“I’ll give you the antidote.” Agnes said, still looking at Ellie.

“Mother! What do you think you’re doing? We have to kill these intruders,” Damien said with anger.

“No one will touch them.”

“Mother! What about Sabrina? That human girl tried to kill her.” Damien said, looking at his mother, while the other witches also supported him.

“Then you should be the one to avenge her. It seems you’re tired of living.” Agnes retorted before turning back to the two girls kneeling down.

“I’m letting you go, not because I’m nice or scared of her. It’s all because I don’t want to be a hindrance to the written fate.” Agnes said, looking back at Maya.

Maya, who had been quiet ever since Ellie’s eyes changed, looked up to the woman and asked, “Written fate? What does that mean?”

“You’ll understand soon.” The woman said, still looking at Ellie. She turned to her son, who was still fuming in anger. “Give them the antidote. They know their way out.” She turned back to Maya and said, “Seek me if you need help finding her true identity.”

Maya was so happy and, at the same time, surprised. “Thank you, Agnes. Thank you so much.” She helped Ellie, who was groaning weakly on the floor, up. She did not understand what was going on with her or what Agnes meant by her true identity, but she needed to get home first.

She collected the antidote from the grumpy man and supported Ellie out of the witch’s hut.

The sky had started to get dark, and she knew that it might not be possible for her to make it. “I think you should go without me, Maya.” Ellie said weakly. She felt like all her strength was suddenly drained away by something.

“You think I’ll leave you here and go back home after everything? We’re going back to save Alex together.” Maya said. She was still helping the girl to work.

“I don’t know what it is that happened to you a while ago, but I’m not leaving you here.” They walked to the top of the hill and back into the forest until they got to the barrier. It had already become so dark that it was not possible for any normal human to see, but with Maya’s sharp senses, she could see anything in the dark.

She said some spells, and the door to the barrier opened. They got out and saw Callum, who was pacing up and down in front of the barrier.

Maya! Are you okay? Did you get it? Callum screamed as soon as he saw them come out of the barrier.

“Yes.” Maya replied.

Callum noticed the girl beside her, who looked like she had passed out. “What happened to Ellie?” He asked, raising his eyebrows. He ran to her side and supported her.

“It’s a long story, but she’s fine. We have to go.” Maya said before they walked out of the forest.
