Fated To The Alpha (Ezra, Katya)

Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 25

Going back to my room, I got changed into my own clothes before heading downstairs. I really wanted to go home and grab a few things, like my sketchbook and a book I was reading. Chucking my shoes on I walk over to the dresser grabbing a hair tie from the draw and pulling my hair into a ponytail before realising I had a huge red mark in my neck. I stare at my reflection and the red and purple mark on my neck.

The Alpha left a hockey on me, in plain view where the entire world could see it. I pull my hair back down, brushing it over my shoulder trying to cover the dreadful mark. Great, now I need concealer for Monday, I thought to myself.

The idea of going to school and facing everyone after what Angie did made me want to puke. Maybe the Alpha will let me have a day off or drop out. I don’t need a diploma. I can work at a cafe or something Sh*tty like that but even I knew how lame that sounded. Nobody’s dream job is to become a waitress.

Grabbing my phone, I walk back out of the room and start heading down the stairs. When I get to the bottom floor I see Mateo coming out of the basement underneath the stairs.

“What are you doing?” I ask before stopping when I see Angie walk out along with her two accomplices. Angie looks at me before dropping her gaze and baring her neck to me which I thought was a little strange, you only do that for those of higher rank or the Alpha.

It made me wonder what Mateo or the Alpha did that would make them like that.

“Hey Kat, just letting these ones out of the cells” he says. So they spent the last two days in the cells? That would explain why I never saw them the night of the pack run.

Angie walks over to me before stopping and Mateo has a triumphant grin on his face as he folds his huge arms across his broad chest.

“Look I’m sorry, Kat. Honestly I never should have done that. Please forgive me, I gave the Alpha my phone and he deleted everything, please don’t banish me or my family” she says making me confused, banish her family, I don’t have that sort of power even if I wanted to, and I don’t want to, I just want to be left the hell alone.

“Well that’s enough, go home and packhouse and pack runs are off limits till the Alpha says so” Mateo tells them. The girl and boy that were with her mutter quick apologises before rushing out the front door.

I just stood there a little dumbfounded, she apologized. Hmm. Turning around, I head for the door.

“Um, where do you think you’re going?”Mateo asks.

“Ah home to get something” I tell him reaching for the door knob.

“No can do princess, I am under strict orders to keep you guarded so therefore no going anywhere till your… Alpha says so”

“What? Where is he, he can’t keep me locked up in the pack house. I am going home to grab something geez, he isn’t my dad and isn’t my mate, so he can’t tell me what to do” I tell him annoyed, why can’t I leave? I didn’t understand, my mum is safe, he should know that now.

“Sorry princess, he is the Alpha and I have to follow orders” Mateo says.

“Then tell me where he is, I will ask him myself”

“He is in his office on the phone to the border patrol,” he says. I huffed, annoyed and stormed off in the direction of his office. I push the door open and see he is on the phone, he holds a finger up telling me to wait before hanging up the phone.

“What’s wrong?” He says, motioning for me to come to him. I shake my head and Mateo walks into the office closing the door behind me.

“Why can’t I leave?” I ask and Ezra wipes both hands down his face.
