The Alpha’s Human Mate

Being the biggest and strongest pack in the werewolf world, news about appointing the Luna spread among all other packs within a day.

Madeline thought that it was the only way to get Alex to do what the pack would want. Having a human as a mate in the pack was considered unlucky because the werewolves knew a human’s strength was nothing compared to that of the werewolves, not to mention having an alpha with a human mate. It has only occurred once, and the wolves made sure to end it before it became rampant.

She knew Sophie was the only good choice. She came from a strong pack, and she could also have the tendency to produce a pure white pup, which they’d wanted for three generations.

Madeline was talking to the maids about the decorations for the ceremony coming in a week. “I can’t believe you stopped telling me things about the pack, Madeline.” A man walked into the supreme and said to Madeline, who was talking to some maids,

She looked toward him. Gabriel! How can you say that? Madeline asked after she dismissed the maids. Gabriel was the former beta and also one of the oldest wolves in the pack.

“Everything just moved so fast that I couldn’t tell you. Sophie has waited all her life for this, and making her Luna now is the right thing to do. Forgive me if you were hurt by my decision.” Madeline apologized.

“I can never get mad at you. You did the right thing, Madeline. I was starting to think that the rumors were true about a fated mate or so,” Gabriel said with a chuckle.

Madeline knew that he must have heard something, and he just had to clear out his doubt. “Of course not.”

“Please sit down; I’ll ask the maids to get you something to eat.” She said that and stood up to leave immediately. She didn’t want to spend any more time talking to him.

Somewhere in the city. A man could be seen in his black coat and sunglasses. He was standing beside a bar before he checked his phone and finally moved to an alley.

He had been trying to trace him ever since he heard about his whereabouts. Finally, when he found him, he realized he had been talking to someone, and they would meet in an alley.

Callum and his men got to the alley before Gregory and hid themselves.

After waiting for some time, they finally saw Gregory walking into the alley. He looked around to check if anyone was there or if anyone had followed him.

Callum and his men stood quietly in their hiding spot, looking at his every move. After what seemed like some minutes, someone whose body he could not see because of the cloak and hood walked in with a big bag.

They watched them talk for some time. In their discussion, Callum knew the person whom Gregory was working with was a woman, and both of them were having issues, but what he couldn’t understand was how the woman was talking in a low voice, which made him not hear her voice clearly.

He waited for them to talk for some time, and when he saw that the woman was about to leave, he and his men came out of their hiding place.

Without waiting to see who it was, Gregory held the bag of money and dashed into the air while the men chased him.

The woman with the cloak also took another direction and ran, while Callum also chased her. He chased her into the alley despite the different directions she was running in.

He almost got to her when he grabbed her cloak, but what surprised him was that she disappeared immediately after his hands touched the cloak. He looked around him before looking at the cloak he was holding. “She’s a witch!” He said it with a shocked expression, his heart beating so fast because of the running.

“Who’s a witch?” He heard a voice asking. He looked up to look at the person who asked the question. You! What are you doing here?! He was shocked to see her, not to talk about the question she had just asked.

“I should be asking you that.” Christina said, looking at the black cloak he was holding tightly in his hands. “I live down the street.” She said, pointing towards the road.

Callum looked at her for some time before remembering that it was close to the bus stop where he had dropped her the day he took her in his car. “Hmm. Is that why you’re walking around so late in the night?” He asked to clear up the awkwardness.

“I went to get some things,” Christina said, raising the nylon bags up for him to see. “Moreover, it’s not too late.” She took out her phone to check the time before looking back at the man.

That was when Callum saw the clothes she was putting on; she wore a white round-neck top and shorts with an oversize slipper, which Callum guessed must have been her bathroom slipper.

“I wonder how humans think,” he whispered to himself. Despite how she dressed, he couldn’t help but find her cute, especially with the way she was raising her head up to look at him.

He took his eyes away from her and said, “It looks like you wear heels a lot. I never thought you were this short.” He walked forward without waiting for her.

“Huh? How can you call me short? All because you’re taller doesn’t make me short.” She said, running towards him to walk beside him, but Callum did not say anything.

Christina also kept silent; walking beside him was something she could not believe in her life. She had always thought Callum would never talk to her again, not to talk like her because of how he always ignores her whenever they bump into each other in the office. “I can’t believe he noticed me.” She thought happily.

“Where is the way to your house?” Callum asked when they got to another turn; he was supposed to go back to meet his men, but he didn’t want to leave Christina all alone.

“You’re following me home?” Christina asked.

“What does it look like I’m doing?” He asked back instead of answering, but when he heard her fast heartbeat and how she looked at him with a red cheek, he knew she must have misunderstood him. “I hope you’re not having the wrong thinking, Ms. Jones. I just want to accompany you because it’s late, and it’s wrong to leave a lady all alone by this time.”

Oh! She hit her cheeks lightly and said it with a smile. “We’ll keep going straight downward.”

After some time, they finally got to the front of a small gate. “Thank you so much, Mr. Stewart. I really appreciate it.”

“It’s fine.” Callum said. When Christina saw that he wasn’t planning on saying anything again, she gave a small bow and turned around to enter the house.

Callum couldn’t explain why he was feeling sad that she was going. Not that his wolf finds the girl his mate, but he just finds himself drawn to her. He even made sure to see her at work every day, but he couldn’t talk to her.

“Christina, wait!” He said that and walked towards her.

He was so close that Christina felt like she would suffocate. “Don’t go around this late in the night again. You never know what creatures might be lurking in the dark.” He whispered softly and gave a smile before leaving the girl alone.

Christina felt a chill after he gave her that weird smile. She quickly went in and closed the door.

She appeared in the middle of the woods. She touched her wrinkled face and hands.

Her disheveled hair, red eyes with blood trickling out of them, and ugly face were something that could scare any creature that saw her right then.

After all, those are the real qualities of a black witch.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
