The Alpha’s Human Mate

They all dispersed and went their separate ways. “Clean up this place, and make sure to close the door when you’re done.” Maya said to the maids before walking out of the room.

She walked towards the main house to go to her room. She looked kind of sad, but she was someone who would never show negative feelings. She really missed her mother, but she didn’t know how to beg Alex to let her back in the Supreme.

She hadn’t taken a lot of steps from the hall when she suddenly heard a familiar voice. Maya! She looked at him in shock. “What is he still doing here?” She muttered under her breath.

“Are you okay?” Darren asked, noticing that she was looking sad. But as expected of Maya, “I’m fine. Perfectly fine.” She answered with a smile before moving to walk away, but Darren held her hand.

He knew she was lying. “Um, I was hoping to have a dance with you yesterday, but I guess Callum was faster to ask.”

Maya knew she had to leave instantly. Her heart was beating so fast as if she were nervous, which she could never accept she was. She couldn’t even make eye contact. Something that had never happened to her before. “Darren is bad for me.” She kept saying to herself, making sure not to make eye contact with him.

“Yes.” She managed to say it to him.

He took a step forward and smiled. “Then have dinner with me tomorrow. And please don’t say no,” he said, still looking at her. Maya felt as if her heart would soon burst out. “No. I need to stop this.”

Without thinking, she quickly voiced out, “No! You should stop all this, Darren. I’m not interested in you.”

Darren looked at her for some time before asking. “Why?” He asked, but Maya wasn’t saying anything. “I’ll let you go if I get a good reason.”Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“A good reason? Is he in his right senses?” Maya thought, looking up at him before looking away. Sensing this, Darren asked with a smile. “Is it because I’m friends with your brother? And you think your brother will kill me if he finds out? Or I’m not up to your taste?”

“I like someone else.” She suddenly said, staring deep into his eyes. She couldn’t think of anything better than that; she just needed to leave his sight.

Darren was also taken off guard; he kept looking at her before he quickly composed himself. “Oh! I see.” He whispered, looking away. Maya also did not bother to wait again; she quickly walked away from him. “I can’t believe you, Maya.” She said to herself as she quickly walked away. She alone knew the kind of courage she mustered up to tell him that.

The next morning, she took her bath and ate breakfast with Alex before he went out. She thought maybe Maya would come to the house, but when she didn’t see her, she decided to go check on her instead.

She knocked on the door, and a maid opened the door. “Good morning, great Luna.” The maid bowed. Ellie also entered. She hadn’t gotten used to this kind of respect, but she just replied with a smile. “Good morning. Please, is Maya at home?”

“Yes, great, Luna.” The maid answered.

“Then please call her for me.” She stood in the living room, looking around, before she suddenly heard a voice. “What are you doing here? Is your apartment not too good for you to stay in?”

Ellie wasn’t expecting to see her. She didn’t know Alex would quickly do what she asked for. “Good morning.” Ellie greeted her with a small bow, but Madeline wasn’t in the mood to exchange greetings. “I asked you a question, girl.” She screamed, but before she could say anything,.

“Mother! That’s enough!” She said this before walking towards Ellie. “What are you doing here?”

“I need to talk to you.”

“OK. Let’s go.” Maya said. They both walked towards the door to go out, but stopped when Madeline said. “You might have become the Luna, but you have no place in this house!” She screamed, making sure Ellie heard before she left.

They both took a walk, almost getting to the garden, but Ellie still didn’t say a word. “I’m sorry about my mother. You shouldn’t think about what she said.” Maya said, before sitting on a long bench and tapping for her seat.

“It’s fine. I’ll get used to it.” Ellie replied with a smile, but the lady beside her was just staring at her without a word.

They were both quiet for some time until Ellie asked, “What are rogues?”

Rogues? What’s your question?

Yes. She answered, still looking at her. Maya just sighed. “A rouge is a werewolf who has left their pack and no longer belongs to any pack. They might be dangerous, I mean trying to attack, or some might just live alone.”

“Oh, OK. Can they also form their groups, I mean, attack?”

“Yes. We have wolves that are actually rogues, but no one knows where their hideout is.”

“Are they the ones that almost killed me in the forest?” Ellie asked again, looking directly into her eyes, but Maya still nodded slowly. “Yes.”

She asked as soon as Maya nodded. “Then who’s their leader?”

Maya looked at her before asking, “Why all these questions about rogues? What’s going on?”

“No. Nothing is going on.” Ellie laughed. “I just thought they might have a leader since they are in a group.”. She said, still smiling. She doesn’t want anyone to know about her plan; likewise, Alex. She feels that she’ll tell them when it’s the right time.

“Well. Too bad no one seems to know who their leader is; even the small rogue that has been captured doesn’t know who he or she is.” Maya said, looking at her. She knew something was wrong, and still she decided to tell her.

Oh!

“Is that all? Because I have some things to do, I’ll see you later.” Maya stood up and left, leaving only Ellie sitting on the bench.

“No one knows who the leader is.” She said to herself, “What exactly is going on? If it’s really this person that killed my parents, then why are they doing all this? Did the person already know who I was long before?” She thought, remembering vividly the dream she had of a woman telling her to come to the forest.

“Then truly, there must be more secrets to this. The only place to get an answer now is my mother’s pack, the Crystal Moon Pack. Mom Aurora, mom Louise, I hope you both give me your blessings.” She said, looking up at the sky.
