Fated To The Alpha (Ezra, Katya)

Read Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 248 – Marabella POV

I can’t believe I humiliated myself like that. He just stared at me and went mute, the most awkward situation ever, so I bailed and chickened out.

“I think he was just shocked you asked. You didn’t need to run from him. You could have given him a chance to answer.” Kora argued.

“Of course, you would say that you weren’t the one standing there in front of him,”

“Hmm, well, I am over all of this mate drama. I say just mark him and be done with it. Why do they have to do the marking?”

“You want me to just go take a bite out of me?” I chuckle.

“Why not, they do. I don’t see why it is always up to the man,” Kora huffs, annoyed. I knew she wanted her mate. Kyan was as much hers, maybe more so, seeing as the wolf side chooses the human counterpart of the mate. Hmm, I never thought of it that way, but then again, I was definitely not comfortable with going up and biting someone and forcefully marking them.

“But do we have a choice? I don’t see Kyan or Kaif marking us anytime soon, so much easier if you were a l*****n but no, you had to be difficult and like the opposite s*x,” Kora growls.

“Somehow, I don’t think that would be easier. I am pretty sure it is the same,”

“I don’t know because you’re not a l*****n,” Kora says.

“Are you Kora?”

“Well no, I don’t think so? I am whoever I am destined to be with, unicorn, ant, s**t if I was mated to a tree, I suppose we would become a tree hugger,” She laughs.

“Oh gosh, that would be so funny. Imagine if Kyan was a glittery unicorn with Kaif’s voice being all grr, wouldn’t be so intimidating when he growled while farting glitter and was colorful like a rainbow’ She cackles.

“I think all this mate stuff is getting to your head Kor, sending you slightly insane,”

“Well duh, hello. We have a mate that doesn’t want to mark us because of some curse, and another who won’t betray his friend and mark us until Kyan does, I say, bite away. At this point, I am going to drop d**d unmated. Maybe we should buy a cat. You could become that next crazy cat lady, plus easy lunch if I got hungry,” Kora tells me. I shake my head at her ramblings, she could be bizarre sometimes, but that was one of the things I loved about having a wolf.

The random things she would come up with, or the strange way she thought. It never bothered me when she kept me up all night just rambling about random things. It stopped the loneliness creeping in. Hard to be lonely when your wolf had enough personalities she made the dude off the movie split look sane. One minute she was all serious business, the next quirky, or d**n h***y, sometimes all of those things. Then other times, she was just Kora, just as lost in this world as I am.

Maybe there is something wrong with her?

“I am outraged. How dare you if I am insane you are too,” She laughs.

“Maybe we aren’t insane, and everyone else is?” I offer.

“Exactly, they are the weird ones. We are perfectly normal,” I laughed for a second. Maybe, I thought to myself. My brows furrowed as I realized I actually hadn’t stepped in the shower yet. I was just staring off blankly while talking to Kora.

“You know you have to be in the shower to have a shower, right?” Kyan says, making me jump. Both Kora and I were so distracted talking to each other I hadn’t even heard him come in.

“You’re also supposed to remove your clothes, not that I am telling you how to shower, but most SANE people shower with their clothes off and don’t talk to the shower screen,” Kyan chuckles. My eyes widen. We were talking out loud? Shame.

“Gosh, you can be embarrassing sometimes. You really should be more observant of our surroundings,” Kora chirps. It was her fault. I rolled my eyes at her.

“I wasn’t talking to the shower screen. I was talking to Kora, wait how long have you been standing there, and how much did you hear?”

“Kora said something about you getting a cat which I don’t recommend. I hate cat fur, and no way am I cleaning kitty litter; also, Jax has a cat fetish. You would be buying a new cat every week after he ate it,” Kyan told me, and my face heats. B****y wolf making things awkward.

“So…are we showering, or should we discuss this domestic pet’s situation some more?” Kyan asks before tugging his shirt off over his head. I nod, showering, showering. I tried to remind myself to function while Kora whistled and hollered in my head.

“Okay, well. I’m going to shower, and you just do whatever it is you are doing,” Kyan says before stripping his pants off. He steps closer, reaching for the shower screen door before opening it and stepping inside.

“If you were a dude, I would totally be giving you a boner right now,” Kora purrs, and I shake my head at her. Kyan moves over when I finally get up the courage and out of my own head enough to get undressed, open the shower screen, and step in with him.
