Chapter 5 Alpha has Second Chance Mate

Katrina

"What do you mean by" I have the blood of an alpha?" I asked with curiosity. "Yes, you're

like me," he pouted.

Like... you?" How is that even possible?

Tell me the name of your parents, he demanded.

"I'm curious," he inquired, "where are you from?" The question seems so simple, but it was

the hardest question for me.

My chest tensed at the mention of my parent's identity and tears formed in my eyes.

Tears flowed down my cheeks as I tried to find my voice. "I..." I began, my voice trembling,

"Can we not talk about them?." But my answer only appeared to waken his interest.

"Please, little mate, tell me, I might be able to help you," he pushed, not knowing what his

questions were doing to me.

In between tears, I managed to choke out a few words, "Please, Alpha, let's not go there." I

don't want to remember anything that concerns them, not until I am fit enough to handle it.

The memories were fresh again in my heart, the pain, the beating, the abuse, I had been

trying to forget since I came here, came back crushing my newfound happiness.

A heart-breaking groan broke out from my lips, and I lost all control over my body. Gasping

for air, I felt as though I were choking.

"I can't," I sobbed, "I can't..." I couldn't care less about how I looked.

Alpha instantly reached out to console me, but it was late. I was panicking and Slowly, my

leg went cold, and darkness and the memories faded into darkness, leaving me with an

empty where I earlier lived.

Williams

I was confused. I didn't know how to help her, it seemed as though she had passed through

a lot in the past.

"What do I do? I haven't been in this situation before. I'm all about wars and battles.

Her pains were eating me up and I couldn't bring my mate out from fright, I felt so helpless.

It's all my fault. I shouldn't have asked the question. While I was worrying, she called.

"Alpha" with the softest voice.

I quickly embraced her. "I was so worried about her, do you feel okay now?"

She wrapped her arms around my waist smiling warmly "Yes, I'm okay but a little tired".

I would do anything for my mate. Surprisingly, I accepted her with everything in me and I was

ready to protect her at all cost.

"I will go and make tea for you to calm your nerves okay? So relax and I will be back". I

promise.

I quickly got up and made my way to the kitchen. I didn't want a maid to do it, I wanted to

take care of her myself until she got better.

As I lit up the stove, It felt strange, I hadn't done this before, I hadn't been to the kitchen for

once. It was all about meetings and battles for me.

but the joy it gave me was overwhelming. " I was doing something for my mate". So, I

searched through the cupboards, found a kettle, and filled it with fresh water.

The sound of the water flowing into the kettle was comforting. "So I have a mate now? I ask

myself. Still in awe.

Next, I selected a tea bag from the shelf, wondering which flavor she would like. So, I

decided on a calming chamomile. Placing the tea bag into a cup, I added a little honey to

taste.

The kettle started to whistle, so I carefully poured the hot water into the tea cup containing the tea bag. The aroma of chamomile filled my nose, and I couldn't help but smile.

I found a saucer and placed the teacup on it, along with a small spoon. As I carried it to my

mate.

She was already sleeping, I touched her cheek. My poor mate was exhausted from all the

pain she had endured.

I was a bit happy that she was getting enough rest but at the same time, I was still having a

biting pain in my heart. "She didn't deserve whatever she might have been through.

I caressed her cheeks again "By the time you wake up, I'm sure you will feel better" I said to

her. So I dropped the tea by the table close to the bed and went out.

By the time I went outside, it was getting dark. Pack members were outside, enjoying the

cool evening, everywhere was a bit crowded.

Some had this worried look on their faces and I wondered why because I hadn't told them

anything yet about my mate except for the doctor.

My Beta, Johanna, and my gamma Micheal were already waiting for me in the meeting hall

when I arrived. I knew it was about my mate when I got a mind link from my beta.

They wanted to know about the girl the guards found in the woods.

Alpha! My beta called but I interrupted him immediately "She's my mate". They looked very

surprised.

Your mate? He repeated. "Yes, I have found my second chance mate". I said. "She's still

weak and in my room resting".

"I'm happy for you man! My beta said smiling, while extending his hand for a handshake.

However, Michael, my gamma, was shocked. I understood, as I had once said, my dislike of

having a mate.

After the meeting, I dismissed them and went back to my room. On my way, I bumped into

Julian, my beta's mate. "Congratulations Alpha". "I will come by when she is strong enough" I

thanked her for her concern and continued towards my room.

As I neared my room, hoping she'd be either asleep or just resting. However, when I opened

the door, she was nowhere to be found.

I sat down on the bed, assuming she might have gone to freshen up, even though I hadn't

shown her to my bathroom before.

After waiting for about ten minutes, I grew worried and I called out to her, "Katrina?" But

there was no response. Panic gripped me, and I started searching every nook and cranny of

the room, my fear growing that something bad might have happened to her.

I let out a loud howl.
