The Alpha’s Human Mate

Two days later, It was finally the night of the ceremony. She was still in front of the dressing table, touching up her make-up for the umpteenth time. She was so nervous, her feet and palms were sweaty and cold. “You need to do this.” She sighed, looking at herself in the mirror before standing up to go downstairs, but before she could move an inch, the door opened and Alex stepped in.

She looked up at the man, who was just by the door, staring at her. She became even more nervous. Hey. She managed to say something to clear the awkward silence, but the guy was still staring at her. She looked away and muttered under her breath. “Do I look that bad?” But Alex heard her.

“Bad? How can she say that when she was making him speechless?” It was as if he had never seen her before. Is it from the black flair-embroidered dress that fitted beautifully on her to the beautiful small silver earrings she was putting on? She looked so beautiful that she left him speechless.

He smiled and walked slowly towards her. Ellie also looked up at him before looking away nervously. He held her hands and sighed, raising her chin up to look at him. “You don’t have to do this if you don’t want to.”

“I want to.” Ellie quickly replied before he would change his mind. “Fine then,” he said, before reaching out into his pocket to take out a small box. He opened it and removed a beautiful silver necklace. “This was supposed to be a peace offering.”

“A peace offering?” Ellie asked, looking at the necklace with him before looking back at him for an answer, but Alex just smiled. He had bought the gift for her ever since he forcefully kissed her in the kitchen. Without saying anything, he pushed her hair slowly to one side and moved his face closer to hers for a perfect view of what he was about to do. Ellie’s heartbeat suddenly started beating faster. Alex’s breath was suddenly making her feel hot.

He also moved closer to her ear and whispered. “You look so beautiful that I’m getting scared that someone might try to snatch you away.” It was after what he said that Ellie realized she had already closed her eyes. Alex finally pulled away and smiled at her reaction. She looked at him and blushed before looking away. “Let’s go now.” He said, holding her hand before walking out of the room.

Hey wait! What about Christina? She asked, thinking that the girl was already on her way.

“Don’t worry about her. The driver should have picked her up by now. She’ll join us there.” Alex said this before helping her into the backseat. After he had also entered through the other door, he heard, “I’m so sorry. We’re late because of me.”

Hey! Alex touched her cheeks and smiled. “Don’t be sorry. We’re not late at all; rather, this is the perfect timing.” He held her left hand tight and kissed it.

The car drove for almost an hour before it finally stopped in front of the gate of the big mansion. Without checking who it was, the guard quickly opened the gate for their car. The driver drove into the compound and stopped in front of the house. The guards quickly opened the door, and he got down before helping Ellie out of the car.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

He held her hand tight and helped her walk to the door, but before the door could be opened, she heard someone screaming her name. Ellie!

Christina! She looked back and ran to her friend. “Oh, my goodness. I thought you were not coming.” She said almost in tears.

“How could I not come?” Christina smiled before looking back at Alex, who was just staring at them.

“Good evening, Mr. Warren.” She greeted him, to which Alex also replied. “Good evening. Let’s go in now.”

In the supreme.

The halls of the house were decorated. In fact, from the gates to the house, it was decorated. Different kinds of rich and classy people from high-ranking packs filled the halls. Despite the fact that the preparation time was short, it was still the most popular occasion among the werewolves.

The party had begun, and the people were already sipping their drinks; some were even talking and flowing with the slow music in the background. But on the other side of the room, the air was so hot and dark that it felt like they would soon burst out of anger. Some of the elders gathered at a corner and watched as other people were smiling and rejoicing. “I wonder what’s making those backstabbers so happy. One of them sighed. “We need to make the alpha know that he’s making a big mistake.”

Just as he said those words, the big door of the hall opened with a big sound, making the room quiet all of a sudden. They all looked at the person by the door and became quiet immediately.

Callum walked up to them. “This way.” He said he was about to direct them to their seats, but stopped all of a sudden when he saw the girl standing behind them. “What is she doing here?” He thought, looking at the girl in shock. Alex just looked at him before ignoring him. He held Ellie’s hand and walked up the stage, ignoring all the stares and murmurs.

“What’s wrong? Why the hard faces?” Alex asked, looking at the people while holding Ellie, who was just staring down in fear.

They were all silent. None of them could say a word for a few seconds, until Elliot decided to talk. “This is wrong, Alpha. We, the elders of the bluemoon pack, disagree with this.” Alex just looked at him before scoffing. He was about to reply to him when he heard another familiar voice from the crowd. “You need to see the truth. A half-human can never be a Luna.”

He looked at where the voice came from. “What are you doing here?” He asked, looking at his mother, who was standing beside Maya. “Did you bring her here?! What did I say about not allowing her into the supreme?!”

Callum, who already sensed the atmosphere, quickly walked up to him before things went out of hand. “You need to calm down.” He whispered, and Alex also looked at him before looking back at Ellie, who was also staring at him with a confused expression.

She did not say a word. She just kept looking down, but when she heard Alex’s mother, she knew something was wrong. “Did Alex send his mother out of the supreme because of me?”

Alex sighed with his eyes closed before looking at the elders. “This woman right here is not only my mate, but also my lawful wife. So, if anyone of you is not in support of this, you are free to leave, but mind you, you drop your position as soon as you walk through that door.” He looked at them with an expression they could not explain. It felt like he was talking angrily and, at the same time, smiling. “Get the ceremony started now, unless you want to see the other side of me.”

The elders could not do anything other than keep quiet. None of them could go against the alpha. Even Madeline was just quietly seething with anger and resentment. One of the elders walked up to them and told Ellie to sit on the golden chair close to them. “Don’t be nervous,” Alex said to her before helping her sit.
