Fated To The Alpha (Ezra, Katya)

Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 78

Ezra POV

It was killing me seeing Mateo like this. I don’t think he has spent one night sober in the last week, each night I have been having to drag him to bed, or finding him passed out somewhere outside. He was even brought home by two patrols two nights ago after he fell asleep while on duty. I don’t know how he does it, how he even manages to drag himself out of bed every morning to take himself to training, yet he is never late. Severely hungover but always on time.

Sitting in my office I hear someone come down the stairs. I had been pouring over the journal trying to find anything to help Kat, help us figure out what to do about Jackson. If there was some way to reverse it but there was nothing. Kat hated being a lunar wolf and I was worried about her safety given her capabilities she has barely tapped into.

Mateo’s scent wafts down the hall along with the smell of whiskey.

“Mateo come to my office please” I called out to him. I hear him stop on the stairs before he groans. My door opens and he steps into my office before sitting in the chair heavily. His hair was a mess, and he looked like Sh*t and smelled like a brewery.

“What?” He asks, leaning on my desk.

“You aren’t going to train like that” I tell him.

“Yeah right and who is going to do training?” He says getting up.

“I will, now sit down” I tell him. He growls before sitting back down.

“I’m worried about you” I tell him and he shakes his head.

“I’m fine Ezra, you don’t need to worry about me”

“Really? Because you have smashed your car, rode off your ute and the patrols had to bring you home the other night, not to mention the amount of times I have dragged your sorry a$s to bed myself” I tell him.

“You know what I don’t need this, I won’t train then. Are you done now Bro I have things to do”
