The Alpha’s Human Mate

“Are you that happy?” Alex asked, noticing how she had been smiling since she woke up, and now she was smiling as she ate. She kept talking the whole night about starting training with Maya.

“Yes. I’m so happy.” She replied, smiling at him. She was even wearing a tracksuit, and she packed her hair in a tight bun, ready to train.

Alex dropped his cutlery and asked. “Why don’t I train you instead?” He was worried that she might hurt herself, but he couldn’t discourage her when she was so happy to start training her abilities.

No. She replied at once, which surprised Alex. “Why?”

“You’re already too busy, and, moreover, I won’t be able to concentrate if you’re the one to train me.” She replied, looking at him, but was surprised to find him laughing. “What do you mean by that, bunny? You won’t be able to concentrate.”

She dropped the cutlery and sulked. “See. That’s what I’m saying. You’ll keep teasing me.” Alex just smiled before standing up from his chair. He walked to her chair and kissed her lips. “I’m sorry that I’ve been so busy. I’ll make it up to you, I promise.

She also knew that work had been so hectic. Balancing office work and meetings amongst werewolves was something she knew wasn’t easy. “It’s fine.” She replied with a smile before remembering. “Have you gone to see your mom?” She asked, but he just groaned. “Ellie.”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“You promised me you’d go see her.”

I’ll go; it just skipped my mind.

“Be careful.” He kissed her forehead again before he left the house.

She quickly finished her food and went outside to look for Maya, but she did not go to the main house, scared that Madeline might insult her again. She was about to go back into the house when she heard, “Where are you going? Aren’t you ready?”

She turned back with a smile. “Of course I’m ready.” Maya just sighed. “Follow me.” Ellie also followed her quietly until they got to a big field.

“I didn’t know this house was as big as this.” She was surprised to see the big field. She was still in her thoughts when Maya turned to her and said, “This is where we’ll be having the training.”

“Before we start, You need to know some things about werewolves in general. We have heightened senses when it comes to hearing, smelling, sight, and others. We also have the ability to transform into wolves, but this is something you can’t do since you have human blood.”

“So you mean I can’t transform into a wolf because I’m half-human?” Ellie asked, to which Maya also replied, “Yes.” She just sighed; she didn’t know whether to be happy or feel down.

As if Maya sensed her feelings, she said, “But you have white wolf blood, which makes you more unique than any other half-human or wolf.”

“I’ve read a lot about your kind of wolf, and I realized that even though you can’t transform into a wolf to attack, you can still make use of your wolf to protect yourself, through your emotions. That was why your eyes changed color when you were in danger.” Maya said, looking at the girl who was just nodding her head in agreement. “So I was hoping our training would be based on how to use your powers to attack.”

“What do you mean?” Ellie asked.

“If you can protect yourself, You should be able to attack first before the bad guy can think of harming you.” Maya said, but Ellie was looking at her with confusion.

“Let’s just focus on the basics first,” Maya said before moving to a nearby table in the middle of the field.

He had called her phone since he left home, but he couldn’t reach her. Looking at her house, he sighed before walking up to the entrance. He pressed the doorbell and waited for some time until the door was opened by a woman.

“Good morning.” Callum said, bowing his head slightly, to which the woman also replied. “Good morning. Who are you?”

But before Callum could reply, a voice came from behind. “What are you doing here?” She was so surprised to see him; she didn’t believe that he was going to pick her up like he said.

“Who is he?” Her mother asked. That was when she was pushed out of her thoughts. “He is my boss. My boss from work.”

The woman looked at Callum before looking back at her. She whispered with a smile. “Do I look like a fool to you, Christina?” She looked back at Callum and said, “Please forgive me. Come in.”

“No, mum. We need to go now.” Christina said immediately, pushing Callum towards the car, but not before her mom shouted. “Visit again.” Callum also bowed his head before following her to the car. He was not expecting to see her mother the next day.

“What are you doing here?” She asked as she entered his car. “I told you I would take you to work today.” He started the car and drove off.

“But I told you not to come. You made my mom get the wrong idea.” Christina said with worry, but Callum just laughed. “I don’t see any wrong idea in that, when I’m still telling you to date me.”

Christina did not say a word. His words still felt strange in her ears. She didn’t know if she was still in the real world because everything still felt like a dream to her. “How can he like me all of a sudden?” She thought before she suddenly said. “Drop me here.”

“Why?” Callum asked, not understanding why she wanted to drop along the way. “What do you want the employees to think of me when they see me come out of your car?” She asked, looking at him, but he was still looking at her as if he were confused.

“And what’s their business with that? Who cares what they think?”

She looked at him. “Well, you may not care, but I do. Now please drop me off before we get to the company.”

“On one condition.” He said, to which her heart started beating fast. She hadn’t even heard about his condition, and she was already feeling nervous, maybe because of how he was smiling at her. “What is the condition?”

“Go on a date with me tonight,” he said, which got christina finally relaxed. She kept looking at him, not knowing what to say, until she heard. “I won’t stop the car if you don’t say yes.”

Mr Stewart! Christina called out, surprised that he was acting that way, but she just heard.”Call me Callum.”

She sighed, having no other choice than to agree. She wasn’t ready to be the talk of the news that would circulating around the office. “Okay, fine. I’ll go. Just stop the car now.” Callum also stopped the car, which she also got out of.

“Don’t forget your promise. I’ll text you.” He said this before driving off, while Christina only smiled. “He will text me?!”

She watched the car drive off before she finally took a deep breath. The main reason she asked him to drop her was because she needed time to breathe and get her mind together, even though it was just for a short while.
