The Alpha Claimed Me Deeply by Demiah13

Chapter 34

34

(Aurora’s pov) “Did you get it?” I asked, my grip tightening around Lily’s thigh to hold her steady. “Uhmm, move a little to the left…” She drawled as she searches through the books. For a girl her size, she really packed some weight on her. My knees were this close to collapsing.
I huffed, fixing her on top of my shoulders as I shift around. I didn’t want to end up throwing her, searing that if she tumbles and injures herself i’d have to pay the price. “Maybe it’s not there Lily…” I breathed out, my shoulders aching from holding her up for so long. We’ve been like this for a good ten minutes. I was surprised the alpha didn’t storm in here as yet. “Oh have a little faith Aurora. We’ll find it, just a little more….” She whispers, arms reaching out to grasp at a book. Her fingers knocked over the book and it falls directly on my forehead. “Oomph.” I grunt, blowing my pink tresses that messily scattered across my face. “Oops. Sorry there Aurora.” Lily quickly apologized. “It’s fine. It didn’t hurt.” I reassured, tightening my grip around her thighs as I nearly tripped from the same book that assaulted my forehead moments ago. “Woah.” Lily squealed, steadying herself by gripping onto the shelf. “Sorry, lost my footing a little. Are you okay?” I asked stiffly, fearing she got hurt. Lily snorted. “I’m fine Aurora, seriously calm down your heart. It’s rather unsettling when we’re here alone. Kinda creeps me out actually.”
“Sorry, I just don’t want your brother to rip my throat out for…” I trailed, remembering how h e didn’t have to add much to damage Adrian’s throat.
Adrian was a wolf, with beta’s blood at that. She’d heal quickly from a brutal attack like that while I on the other hand would choke on my blood until I succumb to my death.
I winced.
“Did your heart rate just kick up a notch?” Lily sighed. I cringed. “Sorry “First of all, stop saying sorry every time. You need to grow a backbone, especially with dealing with my brother. Trust me, killing you seems to be the last thing on his mind.” She grumbles cutting me off.
My mind seems to be rattled by her words as I try to make sense of them. But then she
suddenly makes a happy sound.” Here you are my love, I’ve been looking for you!” Huffing, she reaches out and grasps a huge book with an old looking olive green cover. She smiles down at me. Long hair curtaining around the shape of her face.” Here’s the sucker. You can put me down now.”
i nodded, relieved that her weighit would be soon off of me. I gently help her down my shoulders, visibly sighing in relief when she lands on her feet safely.
Turning to me, she juts out her hand and nudges her head at the book. “Here you go,” she pushes it forward then stops. “Wait,”
I looked at her confused, before she continues.” You should know I’ın only giving this to you because I trust you. Which I don’t to just anyone. And somewhere deep down inside, Xavier trusts you too. Don’t make us regret it Aurora,” She darts her eyes between my own, looking for any flicker of emotion that would give her a sign that I shouldn’t be trusted. She finds none.
“I won’t. For what it’s worth, I keep my promises. And I promise you that I won’t make you regret trusting me,” Even though the words slipped out of my mouth, I couldn’t help but feel scared of what would happen if they found out my secret. Was that considered breaking their trust?
She smiles and pushes the book into my hands. “Now go have a look at what you’re looking for. I’m pretty sure that tingly crap is somewhere in that book. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ll go grab a book of my own to read.”
She turns around and starts to walk away but I called out for her.” Wait.”
She turns around and I looked at her nervously. I didn’t want her far away from me in case her brother happens to burst through those doors at any second. He’d not let me explain why I was here especially if he doesn’t notice Lily first. He’d think I came here on my own to learn the secrets of wolves.
He’d be thrilled to discard me quickly.

She notices my unease and smiles reassuringly. “Don’t worry Aurora. I’ll just be over here if you need me. I’m not going to go too far.” She promises, pointing to an area where there are a few chairs around a table.
I nodded, still a little uneasy but don’t word it out. I better start searching for what I came here for and quickly.
As Lily skimmed her way through the endless books, I decided to stay where I am and skim the big book she handed to me. Its olive green cover was very old and showed that it had been here for ages. There was no indication of what the book held in its knowledge apart from the golden art of a wolf sketched into it.
I opened the book, the dusty yellow pages greeting me. I coughed. It seems no one had bothered to dust it off. It must’ve been sitting here for God knows how long,
My eyes roll down the scribbles of letters, words and drown in them quickly.
The words looked like they were handwritten with a quill. The cursive was beautiful. I skimmed my finger down the rough paper touching the dried ink that had been written down the table of contents.
1. The Full Moon……….. Page 1
2. An Alpha…………… page 22
3. A Beta………………… page 44
1 A Gamma………….. Page 69 5. An Omega………. page 88 6. Shifting………………. Page 107
7. The Mate Bond…………. Page 288
My fingers stop on the last line, my heart quickening in joy as I find what I’ve been hoping the book had inside. I quickly search for page two hundred and eighty-eight. I didn’t know why my fingers were so shaky when I finally set my gaze on those numbers. I bit into my lower lip and turned the page.
The words Mate Bond scribbled into huge words nearly set my heart astray. Suddenly I felt nervous to read it even though I knew I should. This was sacred knowledge that was only supposed to be shared among the wolf people only.
I had no place to even glimpse at the book much less touch it. But I couldn’t find myself placing the book back on the top shelf, away from my sight, away from me.
But I needed to be selfish if I were to survive in this world. I had taken enough torturing, enough disgusted looks thrown my way to know that I would be my only savior. And to be a savior, I need to look out for myself. And that means I have to be selfish and put myself first.
So I took a deep breath and started reading.
Mates are two souls brought together by the moon goddess herself. They’ll share a bond unbreakable by any circumstances. A bond that ties the two souls deeply until they are practically one.
In other words, mates are destined before even coming down to earth.
A werewolf has only one mate in his life and if the moon goddess sees fit, she’d bless that wolf with a second one, only if the first is no more or had been rejected.
At the age of eighteen, it is more likely that mates will be drawn towards each other, whether it’s by pure coincidence or by searching for that other half. No matter how far apart, their souls will be drawn to look for the other half.
The only way a wolf recognizes their destined mate is by the strong addictive scent of their mate. Or by their beast roaring in their heads that they’ve finally found him or her.
There are other ways to know if they’re mates. By a simple touch. The tingles that will rock you will have you melt into their arms. Or perhaps the beating of your heart like a drum as they are near. Another is the way you cannot simply stop thinking about them or would you be able to stop the sudden hunger to be claimed
I stopped reading, my face going ghostly white as the blood rushes out of my face.
I felt all those things with Alpha Xavier. The racing heart, the tingles. The feeling of hunger to have him touch me. To have him near…..
I swallowed heavily and forced myself to continue reading.
Mates are generally possessive of their destined mates, Male wolves precisely Alpha’s are those most likely to be more possessive and territorial. It’s normal for them to feel very possessive and protective when they haven’t marked their mates yet.
Mates typically are so protective of their other half that it shouldn’t be surprising if they tendt o want to keep them to themselves until they are marked
The Novel will be updated daily. Come back and continue reading tomorrow, everyone!
