Fated To The Alpha (Ezra, Katya)

Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 147

Andrei POV

“ Sage please wait” I called out to her as she took off, though I was surprised that instead of taking off for the forest she was actually going home back to the pack house. When I first brought her outside I was a little worried she would run and she looked like she would when I brought her closer to the forest.

I catch up to her, easily falling in line with her. “ Look I’m sorry I didn’t mean to freak you out” I tell her reaching for her hand and am surprised when she doesn’t pull away.

“Why are you apologizing? I marked you not the other way around” She says, her cheeks turning red. Was she embarrassed or angry, both? It was so hard to tell with her sometimes, she was so hot and then cold the next. I knew it wasn’t her fault and if roles were reversed I wouldn’t trust me either. Her vibes suggested she was ticked off but the blush on her cheeks made me think otherwise when she wouldn’t meet my gaze, her eyes staring straight ahead and she actually led me back to the packhouse stopping next to the door.

“What did Donnie do to Sierra?” She asked and I felt bile rise in my throat. I let her hand go and placed my hand on the scanner, preferring to have this conversation inside at least she couldn’t escape me.

The door opens and I place my hand on her lower back giving her a little push but she doesn’t move, instead folding her arms across her chest and glaring at me defiantly, I was shocked she is so timid but she clearly didn’t like that I upset her wolf, finding it funny she was so protective of her wolf when they are technically the same person yet the first place she turns to is her wolf form when she is petrified of me but now she was demanding I tell her.

“I will tell you but inside please”

“Why can’t you tell me out here?” She says her tone is sharp. I fought the urge to smile as much as it irritated me, her wolf may fear me at the moment but it was clear the bond was working because no matter how terrified she was of us she looked quite firm now and unafraid. Deciding not to lie to her I tell her.

“Because I worry you will try and run when I tell you, she took it the wrong way, please just come inside Sage” I ask her motioning for the door, but my words must have made her uneasy as she stared at the door before looking back at me. She swallows now wondering if it is a good idea to go inside but she hesitates a moment before stepping inside. I leave the door open deciding to see if she would run, maybe if she doesn’t feel like a prisoner the temptation to leave will leave her when she realizes she can walk out the door anytime. She looks at it as I walk past her.

“You’re not going to close it?” She says, making me stop and turn to look at her but she was closing the door before she turned around, her fear wafting to me which confused me because she was the one shutting the door.

“I think she fears what’s outside more” Donnie tells me just as she turns around to face me. She looks at me nervously and I watch her.

“You could have left it open” I tell her but she shakes her head.

“What if someone got in”

“Someone or one of my pack members?” “Anyone” She whispers so low I barely heard her.

“Anyone or other men?” I ask her knowing the answer but I wanted her to acknowledge the fact she just locked herself in the house with me.

“You wont hurt me, well you don’t want to anyway” She whispers.

“My pack won’t hurt you, they aren’t monsters Sage, Zane hasn’t hurt you”

“No but he says weird things” She states, making my brows furrow.

“Like what?” I ask her. She shrugs before answering, stepping closer, she can’t fear my Beta. I know Zane would never harm her and is already protective over her, he knows a pack needs a Luna.

“ I don’t know, it’s like he wants me to fear you” She says and I ponder her words.
