The Alpha’s Human Mate

Get married



The next morning,

Ellie spent the whole night watching after her mom; she didn’t get any good sleep. She kept waking up once every thirty minutes to check on her. She didn’t listen, despite how her mom told her to go home and sleep.

She was sitting on a chair with her head on the bed, sleeping, when a light knock came from the door, and Alex walked in.

She opened her eyes immediately and saw him walking up to her with a box in his hands. She quickly stood up and dragged him out of the room to the entrance. “What are you doing here?” She asked with a fierce look.

Um… Alex was short of words; he was not expecting that type of reaction from her early in the morning. “I brought food. I know you must have not eaten anything, and you might not enjoy the hospital’s food.” He said, without taking his eyes off her, that he was expecting a response from her, but Ellie was just staring at him with no emotion. “Um. It’s Mr. Arnold that cooked it.” He said it, not knowing what to say with the way she was staring.

“You must be enjoying this, aren’t you? You even got us a private room.” She scoffed, but Alex did not say a word. She was so angry when she learned from the nurse that Alex had paid for a private room. “I don’t need any sympathy from you, nor do I need any help or food from you.” She whispered, but with an angry tone. “Don’t ever show me any sympathy or bring me food again!”

He did not know that she would get angry over the hospital bills. He just kept quiet and watched her as she scolded him. He also noticed that her face looked so puffy, as if she had been deprived of sleep, but he knew he couldn’t say anything about it so as not to get her angry. “OK.” Alex replied, but he still kept looking at her, which got Ellie even more angry. “Then what are you still looking for? Leave!” Ellie screamed with raised eyebrows.

“I’m sorry, I can’t do that. You told me not to get you food, which is fine. I’ll just give it to mom.” He said it with a smile. Without waiting for her to say a word, he opened the door behind her and entered before she could stop him.

“Mom?! How dare he call her mom?” She screamed in her head before entering the room.

“Alex, my dear! It’s you. I was wondering who Ellie was talking to behind the door,” Louise said with a smile. She saw him when Ellie dragged him outside, and she wanted to stop her, but she decided to just leave her.

“Good morning, mom.” Alex greeted her with a smile. I’m sorry for coming so early in the morning.

How can you apologize for such a thing? Louise smiled before noticing what he was holding. “Is that for me?”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

“Yes. I brought breakfast because I thought you might not like the food in the hospital.”

Oh my goodness! Such a reasonable man! Louise praised him with a smile. She collected the box from him. “Oh! It’s more than enough.”

Ellie, who was just standing in one corner, was just staring at her mother; she couldn’t help but roll her eyes when her mother was praising Alex.

Ellie! Come, let’s eat.

“I’m not hungry. I will eat any other food apart from that.” She said, facing him and making it clear that she didn’t want anything from him. Her mother looked at her before looking back at Alex. She laughed. “She’s not that hungry.” She said to clear up the awkwardness between them. She wanted to get them closer to each other even before anything would happen to her, but she didn’t think it would happen because her stubborn daughter wasn’t making her plans work.

“So I’ve been thinking about the wedding. I understand that a big wedding can’t work at this time because of the preparations, and I also won’t be able to attend. But you can register your marriage in court.

“Mom! Can you stop talking about weddings? You can do this after you get well.” Ellie said, which Alex also wanted to support, but Ellie’s mother caught them off guard. “You and I both know I don’t have much time. And I’d like to see my daughter get married.”

“Mom! Please stop talking like that! You’ll be fine. You’re not going anywhere.” Ellie cried.

Louise looked at her before nodding her head. As much as she wanted to accept that she would be fine and that she would see and plan her big wedding, she knew it couldn’t happen because she didn’t have much time. “OK fine. I’ll stop saying that only if you do what I want.”

Ellie could not do anything other than sigh. She had always wanted to run away from him, but it seems like an unseen force kept bringing her back to him.

Louise was finally happy that her daughter had agreed. They all talked for some time, but most of it was just teasing Ellie. Alex finally said goodbye after some time. He had to go because of the important work he had to do. “I’ll come back in the evening, mom.” He said it with a smile before looking at Ellie, who was not paying any attention to him. She was just focused on her phone as if she were not in the room, but it was all a lie.

She waited for Alex to step out of the room before turning to her mother. “I’ll be right back.”

“Ellie, don’t say anything offensive to him!” Her mother screamed with a smile as she ran out of the room.

Hey! Alex turned back to see where the voice had come from. She walked closer to him before saying, “You must be happy. You managed to bewitch my mom.”

You got it all wrong. I…

“Bring your witness tomorrow. We should register the marriage on time.”

“Yes. Wait! You want to get married?”

“Do I have a choice? You made a contract with me that has been legally terminated. And now I’m making a deal with you. The marriage will end anytime I want it to, and you have no say in it. Hope you agree with that.”

Without hesitation, he looked into her eyes and smiled. “Yes.” Ellie was taken aback by his smile; she was not expecting such a reaction from him. She looked away from him before clearing her throat. “I think I should get this on paper.” She said before walking out. She wanted to make it clear that she was only marrying him because of her mother but staying with him alone, and the smile he was giving her was making her heart race unnecessarily.
